Admin permanent status gone after password change

Hi everyone.
a couple of days ago i decided to change my password as good safety measure. changed as usual, only getting a message about keychain and a possible need to do the change in it after unlocking. seemed pretty standard to me, don't know if it is. (6 month mac user...)
however, for some strange reason, afterwards the change, even if i am still an admin in the user accounts i have to identify myself with pass every time i need to do some change in admin areas, as changing the apps in the apps folder.
i seem to be working as a standard guest , needing to elevate my status every time i need to something standard as changing my apps or renaming them.
i've tried correcti the permissions in the disk utility and also tried to repair my keychain, without great sucess.
anyone knows how can i get my permanent admin status again? it's a pain to need to type a password every time i want to drag and drop an app!
Filevault is active on my home folder.
thanks for your help

drwxr-xr-x@ 3 filipe wheel - 102 17 Abr 20:42 /Applications/scilab-5.1.1.app
for example this one. an app in Apps folder i wanted to update
i didn't changed app folder permissions before. i believe all this weird behaviour appeared after i changed my password.is there a system log i can see?
i was cheking the app folder permissions and is :
system : read and write
wheel : read
everyone: read
i haven't changed them before but i have found that if i had a admin group with read and write permissions i can have back my standard usage. however i don't know the implications of this and don't like treating the symptom, prefer instead to treat the cause
thanks for your help V.K.

  • The login page of EM lost just after password changed

    hi,
    recently, i changed the passwords of SYS, SYSTEM, SYSMAN. when i tried to manage the system through a browser again, i found there is no way to login EM then. I tried to change the passwords back to the previous passwords which created during installation, I wrote 'alter user SYSMAN identified by abc-123' within the sqlplus window and run the statement, but i got a message: 'ORA-00922: missing or invalid option'.
    so, how can i change back the password for the system users?
    or, what should i do after passwords changed, so that let the login page come back?
    thanks!
    ----guo.

    This is because you haven't made changes in emoms.properteis file because password used by the oms are located in the
    $ORACLE_HOME/sysman/config/emoms.properties files
    Any way problem is curable
    1 Go to DBHOME/bin ,Issue comamnd
    alter user sysman identified by "abc-123",
    2 Go to OMSHOME/bin
    emctl stop oms
    3 change the repository password by using comamnd setpasswd oms ,
    4 Start the oms and try to login again
    This is not supported way of changing the passsword , You should use the configuration ui to change the password for the Management Services and Repository target. That is the correct, supported way of setting the password for that target.

  • Skype account crash after password changing

    Hello,
    in the morning I checked which of my devices are connected to the same Skype ID and I saw about 3 devices with showplaces. I typed /remotelogout and changed my password. The problem is that after the password changing proccess my Skype Account was blocked even with the new password after a PC Restart. This is another account of mine.
    Now, I can't access my account(the system says that the password or username may be inccorect, which is not true), nor change that password to gain my access back because I have forgotten my e-mail(and log in dates) of that Skype account. What should I do?
    If necessary to check the stuck Skype ID, I will give to an Administrator via PM, the new password, the old one and the ID.
    Thanks in advance!

    You will need the original email account to restore your password. If not the only way you can restore it is by contacting customer support:
    https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA1170/how-can-i-​contact-skype-customer-service?q=support
    You can allways try to reset your Skype:
    Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old.
    Next go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder.
    Restart Skype.
    N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.

  • Disable AD user after first successful login (after password change) after x amount of days regardless of activity

    I've been searching for over a week high and low now trying to find a way to do this via PS.
    We'd like to lockout certain users (we can put them in a group/OU) 30 days after their first successful log in - the one requiring
    password change by them.
    And we'd like to disable it REGARDLESS of their activity.
    All the tips and scripts I've found look for 'inactivity', date created etc.
    Only parameters I need are 30 days AFTER the first log in. Accounts might be created 60 days before actual use, but still need to be disabled 30 days after their first successful log in.
    Any tips would be GREATLY appreciated!

    I don't think you're going to get the kind of solution you want via scripting. As jrv noted, usually this kind of issue is managed by using account expiration and password expiration. If that won't work for you, then I would recommend looking into supported
    third party tools that can help you get where you need to go.
    -- Bill Stewart [Bill_Stewart]
    As Bill points out you  need to look into third party tools.  If there is any legitimate legal or industry need for this then there wil be third party tools.  Having worked in medical software systems \I can tell you there is not. There are
    old systems that use now-obsolete mechanisms that do things similar to what you are asking.  They are no longer usable.
    I think if you sat down with those asking you to do this and had them get the actual industry and government rules on the table you would see that this is not what they are asking you to do.  It aslo doesn't make much sense from a technical standpoint.
    Just set the password expiration.  That is what it is designed for. To force reauth just set the account so the user cannot set the password.  Use the reauth web page to allow the user to set a new password.  Use the corporate disclaimer
    or a desktop link to notify users what to do when the password expires.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • Outlook prompting for password after password change

    I have a client who has Exchange 2013 and the PCs run Windows 8.1 with Office 2013.
    The users just started having the following problem. Their domain passwords are expiring and when they update them with a new one, Outlook starts prompting them for a password when they open it and periodically while Outlook is running. They keep entering
    the new password and checking the box to remember it, but the password prompt keeps coming back.
    I've checked and the account in Outlook does not have the box checked to always prompt for logon credentials. I did notice that the proxy authentication is set for NTLM so I changed it to Basic, restarted Outlook and there was no password prompt and the
    user has not seen one since.
    Any idea why having the proxy authentication set to NTLM would cause this after the domain password changed? It has been set to NTLM rather than Basic for years now. Exchange 2013 has been in use there for about 6 months and Office 2013 longer than
    that. Windows 8.1 has been on the computers for 3-5 months so I don't think that's it either. I've tried with our domain account we have setup there and with a test user account by changing the password on them but with the proxy authentication set to NTLM
    I haven't had the password prompt appear other than once the next time Outlook is opened after the password change, and that is to be expected.
    So it's not every user account but a good number of them this is happening with.
    Jonathan

    I have an update.
    There must be a GPO or setting in Outlook changing the proxy authentication to NTLM because this morning it was changed back to NTLM from Basic. They all either shut down or restarted their computers since I worked on them Friday.
    One user got the password prompt one time when starting Outlook. She entered the password and that was it. But she was unable to connect to a shared calendar. She put her computer to sleep, woke it up, logged in, and then was able to connect to the shared
    calendar. I don't understand that.
    Another user could not get the password prompt to go away this morning no matter how often he input his password, and he also was unable to connect to the shared calendar. So I changed the proxy authentication back to Basic again, restarted Outlook (which
    is required), got no password prompt, and he was able to connect to the calendar.
    I realize the calendar issue is tied to the password issue. What I don't understand is why these people are getting the password prompt ever since they changed their domain password.
    I have a test account and test PC set up in a VM and it does not have any of these problems. I've changed its password 3 times but I never get a prompt when opening Outlook and it is set to NTLM.
    I hope someone out there has an idea why changing their password now is causing this authentication problem in Outlook.

  • TS3899 My iPad won't download mail after password change

    I recently changed my password on hotmail. Since then my hotmail account won't download any emails after 2011. when I use the. Ail app on my iPad it says I have 97 emails to download, 14 new emails. I've deleted the account. I've turned off the iPad. I've done a reset using the home button and off button. Nothing! Help!,

    When you changed your password did you change it on hotmail, via safari....for example, went to hotmail.com, signed into your hotmail, followed the password changing protocols. Then go into your iPad's settings and your hotmail account and changed the password to match?
    When you deleted your account info off your iPad did you use the outlook preset when you added it back in?

  • After password changed, Gmail is not working on iPad mail apps.

    After Gmail password changed, iPad mail app's not working.
    I changed  password on ipad setting too.
    But its showed ' Theuser name or password for "Gmail" is incorrect. '
    I can use Gmail from safari.
    Why?

    Try this. Even if the outgoing primary server states that the username and password are optional, fill them in anyway.
    Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if you can then send emails.

  • TS3899 Email stopped working after password change

    I changed my att.net password after my account was hacked and used to send a spam email to my entire address book.  Now my iPad email will not work and I get a message that my user name or password are incorrect.  I have changed the password in my iPad mail settings to match my new password at att.net.  I have looked at the iPad support stuff on mail problems and have shut down my iPad to no avail.  I have two emails in my iPad outbox that have not been sent and I cannot receive new emails.
    ANY SUGGESTIONS.

  • OWA only after password change

    Hey all,
    I have a really strange problem with OWA 2013. I'm migrating from EX 2010 to EX 2013. After I've migrated five testing users, it figured out, that access to OWA wasn't possible for all five users. Two of them could log on without any problems. The three
    others got a message "Something went wrong" with error "System.ArgumenException". I couldn't find any errors in eventlog. In IIS log, I see login with HTTP 302 and HTTP 200.
    After checking permissions, inheritance and so on, it figured out, that it's a problem with the user password. When I check "User must change password on next logon" in ADUC, I get the corresponding password change dialog when logging in to OWA.
    After changing the password, the user is able to log in to OWA without problems. I checked this with the other users and that did the trick. I also tested to change password through ADUC, but without success.
    So I can only log in to OWA 2013 after changing password through OWA. Anybody?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    First of all, migration will not affect AD account including password except cross-forest migration.
    For further troubleshooting, I would like to collect some information.
    How many ADs in our migration environment?
    Please try to access exchange via Outlook to check this issue.
    Please try to migrate a new test user to check this issue. If this user have the same issue to logon OWA, then try to logon ECP.
    Since two users could log on without any problems, please compare the setting between good test users and problematic users via user’s ECP or ADUC.
    Thanks for your time,
    Best Regards.

  • IMessage "Waiting for activation" after password change

    Last night, I changed my password of my apple ID since I was constatly receiving emails for password change when I didn't do anything.

    iMessage activation can take up to 24 hours.

  • Sudo fails after password change

    I've been fighting with sudo for some while now. The cause is, it won't accept any password from accounts that I've made changes to it's passwords lately. Though, editing sudoers to gain root acess without passwords works ok.
    I really don't know what to look for, tryed basic stuff like reinstalling sudo and messing with visudo, but nothing really promising (except for the "without password" bit).
    Hope for some light from you, expert archers. (not those with bows and arrows )

    Sorry for my lack of attention on this topic.
    Until this problem I was using the whell group scheme, but then I tried adding my username to sudoers, but no change. Only if I activate NOPASSWD.
    Mu sudoers:
    # sudoers file.
    # This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.
    # Failure to use 'visudo' may result in syntax or file permission errors
    # that prevent sudo from running.
    # See the sudoers man page for the details on how to write a sudoers file.
    # Host alias specification
    # User alias specification
    # Cmnd alias specification
    # Defaults specification
    # Runas alias specification
    # User privilege specification
    root ALL=(ALL) ALL
    adriano ALL=(ALL) ALL
    # Uncomment to allow people in group wheel to run all commands
    # %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL
    # Same thing without a password
    # %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
    # Samples
    # %users ALL=/sbin/mount /cdrom,/sbin/umount /cdrom
    # %users localhost=/sbin/shutdown -h now
    Which authentication method do you use?
    Not sure about what you're talking about, but I think it's PAM.
    Are the computers standalone, NIS, ldap?
    It's just one computer with 3 users... nothing complex.
    When I (user adriano) try to use sudo with this method:
    $sudo echo ok
    We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
    Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
    #1) Respect the privacy of others.
    #2) Think before you type.
    #3) With great power comes great responsibility.
    Senha:
    Sorry, try again.
    Senha:
    Sorry, try again.
    Senha:
    Sorry, try again.
    sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts
    When NOPASSWD is activated:
    $sudo echo ok
    ok
    Using Whell group gives the same result as both above
    Before The password change, this "banner" would never show up if you had the right to use sudo.

  • SOA EM down after password change - OracleSystemUser is not a valid user principal in the current security realm

    Hello,
    I've got a SOA Suite development environment set up and whilst trying to change the weblogic password using this tutorial a problem arose with my soa managed server.
    Firstly I was unable to start the Managed SOA server due to mismatching passwords, and after I modified the boot.properties file, now I cant start the usermessagingserver and soa_infra applications due to the following error:
    Error 1

    I've checked both weblogic and OracleSystemUser users and their groups are (respectfully) Administrators and OracleSystemGroup.
    I've searched for an answer to this problem and found this other support article but couldn't resolve the issue.
    The weblogic server version is 10.3.2.0 and it's running on RedHat Linux.

    @Sri_Sonti
    In the Admin Console, I can see both users in the security realm with the following configs:
    weblogic:
    all atributes with the "value" column blank
    groups: Administrators
    OracleSystemUser
    all atributes with the "value" column blank
    groups: OracleSystemGroup
    Also I have not found the system-jazn-data.xml file you mentioned. In that folder there's only a readme.txt file.
