ABS snow-can't join/find or change password

Hi & thanks in advance. I searched the discussions-found somewhat related material but not enough. I am trying to use an airport snow that hasn't been in use for about 2-3 years. I am currently connected via it, so it does still work. I connected it last night, don't remember what all I did, but finally got it to work. Using AT&T DSL w/Westell modem, connected via ethernet port/cable to Snow. The network was previously named & password protected; my sister changed it, and somewhere/when I changed it back, but cannot remember password. I have managed to connect by 'resetting' the Snow, which temp resets password to 'public.' If the password is not reset during the next 5 minutes, it reverts and my problem starts all over again. After resetting temporarily, I try in vain through Airport Admin Util & Airport Set up Asst to find/rescan--everything I see possible to really reset my Snow network name & password. It 'cannot be found', 'can't read the configuration' finds the network but then asks for the password I don't have--just cannot get this to really work. One thing I did start last night and may have messed up was under Internet Connect under File under New 802.1x Connection--I started looking at this option but stopped partway through (when I realized I did not know enough about it to be doing it). Now this is grayed out under that menu. One different thing that happened was that at some point, I was directed by Firefox to the AT&T launch modem site, which I completed. That is when it started working.
I have 2 PB g4 15" aluminum, 1 running 10.3.9 & 1 on 10.4.11. Hope I have given enough info for someone(s) to help me. Thanks again for any/all help. Right now I am just hoping that the Airport Snow stays on & connected.

1st--and there I was trying to be so complete with my info. 2nd-in Airport Admin Utility, when I click on 'other', it asks me to enter the IP address (which already has 10.0.1.1) and enter the 'password for the other base station.' and there is my real problem--I don't know the password.
About the incompatible software, would I be able to use it (ABS snow) to connect (I am using it now) if the software was not compatible? I just haven't 'turned off airport' since I reset the ABS snow this morning and was able to connect before it reverted to the other password (that I don't know & don't know how to reset).
When you say to 'connect with Ethernet instead of wireless', do you mean to run another ethernet cable from the ABS to the ethernet port on the laptop? Current set up is DSL line--into Westell modem--into ABS via ethernet port. Thanks,

Can I still find my former passwords used in one website?

I play a game called RAN ONLINE PH , I change my password from time to time, but yesterday when I changed my password, I was brain washed and forgot about it, but what I did was save it to mozilla firefox, then I kept on guessing until my little bro clicked save password, that is why the real password was gone, can I still find the old password, because in the save passwords tab it only shows the updated ones. please help ASAP
sorry for bad english

If you have updated the password that was previously stored in the Password Manager then you would need a backup copy of the logins.json file.
You can make a backup copy of the current file and see if you can possibly restore a previous version of this file.

How do I add a password where I never had one? All I can find is change password and that asks for an old password which I do not have.

How do I add a password as user and administrator where I never had one? All I can find is change a password which asks for an old password to be entered and I do not have an old password.

Just leave the old password field empty and enter the new password

Can't Log-in or change password...help

So, I have seen this a few times on these forums, but I can not figure it out. I have the can't login or change password or email do not match problem, basically I can not do anything. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello cadshot,
I was able to locate your account using the e-mail address you used to register for the forum and have submitted a password reset request on your behalf. You should receive an automatically-generated message with a password reset link in the next 10-15 minutes, so make sure to keep an eye on both your inbox and junk mail folders. The link will only be valid for a short period of time, so let me know via private message if you're unable to access that e-mail right away.
To send me a PM, simply sign into the forum and then click on either the link in my signature or the letter icon in the upper right-hand corner of the page.

Can I stop having to change password after one wrong entry?

It seems the requirement to change password for apple id is now 1 failed attempt..instead of being able to recover and use same password after answering security questions, I have to change passwords...this has become a pain. Can this be changed?

I just made to bad attempts at entering my password into the iTunes Store and got the request to update my password before proceeding. I clicked through the links for Apple to send me an email (vice using the security questions). I ignored the email and entered my correct password and downloaded the music I wanted. You do not actually have to change your password, just go through some of the motions to initiate the process and then you can stop.

Can't log in or change password

I can't reset my password to log in because the reset email keeps going to an email account I deactived a long time ago. I also can't change the email account that the reset password is sent to since that requires the proper password. The email I got back from Spotify wasn't very helpful. This is my case number: ref:_00DD0pxIW._5005710ODIc:ref

Hey, !
If you have access to the email account you used to create the account you can use this link to reset your password :)

If you do not have access to the email account you can speak to support here :)

How can I hide what I write in a find and change list

I've written a find and change script, I prepared to offer it for anyone to use, but I don't want to anyone to read what I write in the find and change list.
How Can I hide it?

OK, my be offer it for someone to use it, I mean in house coworker, no any virus in it.

mybe change it to .doc or .vb or .js, and the script still can run well.

Can't get mail after recently changing password on iPhone 5c

Can't mail after recently changing password on iPhone 5c iOS 6

If you are talking about changing your email password on your email provider's server did you also change the password in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars for this email account?

Change Password on first use does not work properly.

I have created apex application user in Oracle Apex 3.2 as follows
BEGIN
APEX_UTIL.CREATE_USER(
p_user_name => 'NEWUSER1',
p_web_password => 'secret99');
END;
As in the documentation
p_change_password_on_first_use IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'Y',
User should be prompted to change password at first use. But it does not work properly. There is no such message. Still accepts user to log in with old passord that was first given to the user. I have tried explicitly to ensure change password at first log in. by
BEGIN
APEX_UTIL.CREATE_USER(
p_user_name => 'NEWUSER1',
p_web_password => 'secret99',
p_change_password_on_first_use =>'Y');
END;
Still does not work. How can I ensure user to change password on first login.

Might be a long way around the problem but I would utilize a boolean flag in a column (FIRST_LOGIN) your custom auth table set to 'Y' when you create their account. Then on the login page have a page process something like:
** NOT TESTED **
declare
v_first VARCHAR2(10;
v_session NUMBER;
begin
v_session := APEX_CUSTOM_AUTH.GET_NEXT_SESSION_ID;
select FIRST_LOGIN into v_first from AUTH_TABLE where user_name = :P101_USERNAME and :P101_PASSWORD;
if v_first = 'Y' then
wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login(
P_UNAME => :P101_USERNAME,
P_PASSWORD => :P101_PASSWORD,
P_SESSION_ID => v_session,
P_FLOW_PAGE => :APP_ID||':2' *** THIS IS YOUR PAGE TO HAVE THEM RESET THEIR PASSWORD ***
else
wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login(
P_UNAME => :P101_USERNAME,
P_PASSWORD => :P101_PASSWORD,
P_SESSION_ID => v_session,
P_FLOW_PAGE => :APP_ID||':1' *** MAIN LOGIN PAGE *****
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
*** handled **
end;
The page 2 in this example would have an few items for them to enter their new password twice, a page process to update their password in the auth table and then redirect them to the intended first page.
Not sure if it meets your setup.

Users changing passwords within LDAP authentication

Hello all,
I've noticed that if a user uses the 'Membership' authentication to access the portal, they are allowed to change their passwords within the 'user channel' edit section.
If a user logs in throught the LDAP authentication, this password utility disapears.
1 - Is there a way to use this password utility when using LADP authentication? Is it just a setting somewhere??
2 - What are you using to change password if you are using LDAp authentication? i.e. did you create your own password tool??
Thanks in advance,
Jason

Here's how I did it on 6.0:
I created a bookmark with these properties:
Bookmark Name: Change Personal Settings
URL: /amconsole
When the user clicks on the bookmark, they have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the window to find the change password option. After changing the password, the user should close the amconsole window WITHOUT clicking on the logout button. Just kill the window.
If they click "logout" it will log them out of the Portal Server while leaving the desktop window open. It will look like they are still logged in but they are not. They will have to re-login.

ISE Guest - Change Password Option

Hi All
Can anyone confirm that the change password option on the Guest Self Registration Portal actually works?
I have enabled the options with the ISE Guest Portal to allow the Guest to create his own account and also to change his password.
Although the self creation of the account works fine it doesn't look like changing the password works. When you enter the new password and click submit nothing seems to happen.
ISE version is 1.2.1.198
Regards
Roger

Hi Roger,
Are you making use of customized self registration portal. In such cases make sure , the session ID of a particular guest login is carried forward to the password change page as well.
For the html changes to any pages (login, aup, self_registration, self_registration_result,
device_registration & change_password) that link back to other pages. The below points A and B should be added as part of customized pages.
A)Reference script (<script src="js/customportals.js"></script>)
B)Add the onsubmit="getDynamicAction(this);" logic for posts
Thanks

Change Password Provisioning to AD fails

OIM 9.0.3 is used for provisioning user data to AD. The OIM Administrative and User Console is customized to be a helpdesk UI for administrators and self-service UI for normal users. A user ID that is in a System Administrator User Group logins into the OIM Administrative and User Console, it is able to see all administrative tasks, e.g. user management, whereas a user ID that is in a All User Group logins into the same console, it can only see My Account->Change Password.
Here are two Change Password processes that we want to have in our system.
1. Administrator changes password by clicking the 'Change Password' button in the User Details' page. Password can be changed in the OIM database and the new password will be provisioned to AD, i.e. an AD attribute 'unicodepwd'. It works fine in this process.
2. Normal user changes password by clicking the 'Change Password' in 'My Account'. The new password cannot be provisioned to AD successfully. Actually there is even no write operation in the AD, as the value of 'whenChanged' attribute is never changed if we try to change a user password in a self-service UI.
This is quite strange, as we configured two special tasks in Process Definition in Design Console, i.e. 'Change User Password' and 'User Password Updated', we also added an entry in Lookup.USR_PROCESS_TRIGGERS as: CODE Key=USR_PASSWORD, Decode: Change User Password. Process 1 works, whereas process 2 does not.
I found some other similar posts in the forum, but none of them had such a problem. Whenever there is an update in OIM, the change should be provisioned to the AD. I don't think it matters where the user's password is changed, correct? But it doesn't work! Anyone has ever met this issue before? Thanks!

The transport of a changed password from the USR form to AD is a two step process.
First you trigger a task that moves the new password from the USR form to the AD process form. This is done by Lookup.USR_PROCESS_TRIGGERS.
In step two you move the password from the AD process form to AD. This process is triggered by a naming convention. Any task called "<LABEL> updated" will be triggered if the <LABEL> field on the process form is updated.
If you change the name of your AD process form -> AD task to "Password Updated" it will trigger.
The "cascading" part of the password change process is the same no matter how the password change was initiated.
Best regards

The "X Updated" taskname should be written with a capital U.

HT2497 Airport is not recognizing my wireless network because my wireless network has the same name as another apartment in my builing. I cannot change the name because my room mate controls it, is there any way I can make it find my wireless network?

It used to be that the other apartment with the same name didn't have theirs password protected so even though only one or the other would show up, I could always get onto one. Now, they have password protected theirs and it seems to be that 100% of the time only theirs shows up which I only can tell because it says "invalid password" when I try to connect to the Internet.
I have asked my room mate to just change the name of the network but she is really slow to do anything about it and I need to be able to get the internet at home and the internet is in her and set up through her computer so I really don't have any way of being the one to just go in and fix it myself.
Is there any other way to make Airport recognize that there are two different networks with the same way so it will find mine? I feel like I have tried everything including mannually typing in the name of my network and typing my password and it still just says "invalid password." I have also double checked that I was typing in the correct password and I am. My room mate is not having any problems accessing the Internet so I know the problem is not with our connection (she also has a Mac, almost the same model as me, I have a MacBook Pro purchased in 2011). I am also able to connect to the Internet on my Mac at coffee shops and the library so I know that the problem is not my computer or my wireless connection so I'm pretty sure it is just that Airport is somehow only recognizing one of the two "WLAN" networks
Any help???!

Hi - you can do what you want to do with AirPlay from your iPhone - but unfortunately it is not as easy as the people in the Apple store told you - your first problem is that you have a non Apple router - you cannot extend a non Apple router wirelessly with the Express - you can only join the network and connect an ethernet device to it - you can however connect via ethernet and have it create a wireless network of its' own - you can set this up from your iPhone or the XP - but this is a complicated setup and would involve many different discussion areas of this forum - therefore I would suggest that you use your 90 days of support and consult directly with Apple to do this - go to this link - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

Can't use Find My Friends on iPhone due to Apple ID not being verified. Can't do this as I can't access my .mac email any longer and I can not change the primary e-mail address for my Apple ID!

Can't use Find My Friends on iPhone due to Apple ID not being verified.
Can't do this as I can't access my .mac email any longer and I can not change the primary e-mail address for my Apple ID!
So my options are:
Create a new Apple ID, use that and lose all the apps I've purhcased with it (a fairly substantial amount)
Somehow Migrate these purchases over to a new Apple ID
Apple let me change the primary ID for the account
Anyone else ran into this before?
I've tried accessing the mail through a mail application using the correct server information, and trying both the old 6 character password and the one I had to change it too after they updated the security guidelines - neither work.
Help would be greatly appreciated as I can see more services down the line not working without the address being verified!

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You should not need to verify the old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
