Admin username and password not recognized for upgrade

I'm trying to upgrade a user account on my computer to Yosemite. This is that not the admin account.  My admin username and password are rejected.  It is also rejected when I try to do something such as change the power settings.  If I'm doing this within my admin account the same username and password work just fine.  I have no idea how to fix this.

One more follow up question. I logged back into my admin account to upgrade to Yosemite.  The software was already downloaded in the user account using the apple ID and PW associated with that account, which is different than the apple ID associated with the admin account. 
Within my admin account, on the first page of the app store app it shows OSX Yosemite as 'downloaded' and nothing happens when I click that button. 
The only other option is to click 'learn more' under the OSX Yosemite image. From that page it asks me to sign in to the App store to download Yosemite. The Apple ID box already contains the other Apple ID (not the one I want to use), and there is no option to change that.  All I can do is enter that password.
I'd like to complete this with my Apple ID but I don't know how to change it.

  • What to do in iPhoto, error when sending pics email, username and password not recognized

    In the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete the account and renter it
    Or better yet IMHO set Apple mail as your email client in the iPhoto preferences rather than iPhoto

  • For the 1st time I am trying to send an iPhoto by email but get an error message "combinations of username and password not recognised" I use the same details to log on to my Sky Mail (yahoo mail ) account . Any ideas?

    For the 1st time I am trying to send an iphoto by e-mail but get the error message " combination of username and password not recognised  by the server" I use Sky Mail ( yahoo mail) and input the same username and password that I access Sky Mail - have retried many times. Predictably the Sky help desk have no idea. Can anyone help please?

    I regret that you're having trouble setting up your email, corbad! You're on the right track with your incoming email address. You might also try incoming.verizon.net or incoming.yahoo.verizon.net as possible alternatives, and 995 as the port number. Please let me know how that goes!

  • Hi . username and password not save in firefox 7.0.1 . please fix it.

    hi . username and password not save in firefox 7.0.1 . please fix it.

    This is why I'm losing my patience with Firefox. Every few weeks there's another update; which usually auto installs without asking permission. Then I have to go around and find and fix those things that worked in the previous version. Can't you guys do like Apple does and notify us that there's an update, tell us what the changes are and let us decide whether or not we can download and use it? Until this is fixed, I have gone back to version 6.0 and will stay there (unless it auto updates) until you guys get a better way to communicate. If nothing happens, I will go look for another browser...not IE...maybe Chrome or some other.

  • Usernames and passwords not saved

    I have followed all of the suggestions and usernames and passwords are not saved. This feature did work until I install Firefox 4 and still with Firefox 5.

  • ICM ADMIN username and password

    Hi frnds
    I have installed SAPNW7.0ABAPTrialSP12 on my system. I have started the application server and it works fine but when i click on ICM in MMC it is asking me to enter ICM ADMIN username and password.
    What needs to be entered please let me know?
    Thanks

    1.      As user <sid>adm go to the directory where the executables are kept and call up icmon &#8209;a pf=<instance profile> .
    The following appears:
    Maintain authentication file
    ============================
    File name (icmauth.txt):   .
           2.      If you are happy with the default file name, press the enter key, otherwise enter a different file name or path.
           3.      In the next menu choose a (add user to set).
           4.      Enter the user name, then the password twice, the group name, the subject of the X.509 certificate (wildcards allowed, and it can be left empty).
    User Name: icmadm
    Enter Password: *****
    Re-enter Password: *****
    Group name: admin
    Subject Value of Client Cert: CN=template,*
    new entry locally created
    The user created is in group admin, the user is therefore an administration user without administration authorization. In particular this user can create further users in the Web admin interface.
    If you select another group name other than admin, create a monitoring user that can monitor, but not administrate, the ICM/Web Dispatcher.
    If you want a user to be able to log on only with the X.509 client certificate, you can enter an x as the password (with queries), which makes the following entry (in the example) in file:
    icmadm:x:admin:CN=muster,*
           5.      Choose s (save changes of set to file), to copy your changes from the local buffer to the authorization file.
           6.      Choose q, to quit the program.

  • Reset Admin UserName and Password?

    Is there a way to reset you Admin username and password? Do I have to re-install?

    Following information is from Installation Guide, Troubleshooting section. It seems to indicate that you have to re-install.
    If you do not remember the administrative user name that was supplied during installation, try the user name admin. This is the default user name specified in the server configuration dialog during installation.
    If you still cannot determine the user name, look in the following file:
    domain_config_dir/domain1/admin-server/config/admpw
    This file contains the administrator's user name followed by the encrypted form of the administrative user's password.
    If you do not remember the administrator's password, then you will need to uninstall and reinstall the application server.
    If you do not remember the administrator's password, then you can delete the administrative domain using the delete-domain subcommand of asadmin and create a new domain with a new administrative password.

  • Gmail Error: Username and Password Not Accepted?

    Okay, once in a while my e-mail actually works on my I phone but about 90% of the time I get this notification; Cannot Get Mail: Username and password not accepted. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it? Oh yeah, I'm using 1.0.2, gmail, and I'm positive my password and username is right.
    Message was edited by: one11archerave

    I think the problem is solved. Last night I was on my friends computer and I accidentally stored my gmail password. I couldn't figure out how to delete it so I changed my password and then updated my iPhone with the new password. Ever since then I haven't had any problems.

  • Lpadmin - request for username and password - not responding correctly

    Recently updated to a new computer and 10.5.7.
    A printer was paused (somehow). Tried to resume printing and got a request for an lpadmin administrator user name and password. Mine is the only account on this computer. Put in my user name and password, but this was rejected. If I tried 3 times I was told to try later (and given my password hint). However, after clicking OK to this dialogue the action WAS taken.
    Same thing happened when I tried to add a printer. It will not accept my username and password, but if I persist until I get the message to try again later, the printer WAS added.
    So, I am back to having a printer, but this seems like a bug.

  • ILM assistant XDB username and password not working

    Hi All,
    Hi I'm using ILM 1.3 with Oracle 11g on HP.
    I am able to log-in to apex server but not ILM assistant.
    http://dblxamd02.vxindia.veritas.com:8080/apex/apex_admin it works with admin/oracle.
    But im not able to login to http://dblxamd02.vxindia.veritas.com:8080 when it asks for XDB username and password.
    I tried to reset the password using apxxepwd.sql but not luck.
    Did anybody observer this issue ? if so can somebody please reply me ASAP ?
    Thanks in advance.

    There are two wats to install the ILM toolkit:
    1) Directly on the server where your instance is located. In this case you do not need to provide a TNS connection name. Therefore, you would execute the script as follows:
    @ilma_install.sql pune
    2) Remotely from a client. In this case you do need to provide a connection string to your remote database instance. Therefore, you would execute the script as follows:
    @ilma_install.sql pune@11
    in this scenario the connection details are derived from your TNSNAMES.ORA file. If you have multiple Oracle products installed you have multiple copies of this file and it can be difficult to track down which file is being used. To point to a specific TNSNAMES.ORA I normally set three parameters:
    ORACLE_HOME - points to your 11g Client installation directory
    PATH - point this to the Oracle home containing SQLPlus, usually this is ORACLE_HOME/bin
    TNS_ADMIN = ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
    then make sure the TNSNAMES.ORA contains a reference to your identifier "11". You can test the connection by using the TNSPING utility that is part of the 11g client installation. The format for your instance would be:
    TNSPING 11
    this will tell you if you can connect to your instance. If there are any issues check the connection via the Net Configuration Assistant, or you can edit the TNSNAMES.ORA file directly via Notepad.
    Hope this helps

  • Default username and password not found

    Hello all,
    Just bought the new WVC54GCA ip camera, tried to configure it with its setup but can't get in as I couldn't find the admin password anywhere.....Does anybody know what are the default settings for these username and password fields?
    (Linux, MInt, Firefox...)
    regards

    Default Username is admin and default password is admin...However, if it does not work then you need to enter the password that was set when you installed the camera for the first time...If you don't remember the password then you need to reset the camera and re-configure it...

  • Lost admin username and password

    I recently was given this IMAC for free, by the school I work for. Unfortunatly, the person who was at the time the main administrator did not leave his username and password. (He recently quit and moved out of state). Thus I cannot open files, add software, ect. Can I start over from the begining? Any help would be gracefully accepted.
    Linda

    if you have the installation disks handy, you can put the first disk in, restart the machine, and hold down the C key.
    this will boot from the DVD/CD drive.
    once the install wizard has started, go to the utilities menu, and select password change.
    this will allow you to change the password for the admin user.
    you could also reinstall the os entirely by going through the installation wizard (this assumes you do not want to keep any information on the machine)

  • IPad won't remember usernames and passwords after iOS 7 upgrade?

    Ever since I upgraded I have to re-enter my password and username on all of my sites.  They would remember me before.  I do not have this problem on my iPhone just my ipad.  Any suggestions?

    Just login to Amazon, Netflix and other sites in Safari. For each site after I entered the username and password, then after I pressed the "Log In" button, a pop-up message box appears:
                                  Save This Password?
                          You can view and remove saved
                           passwords in the Passwords &amp;
                         AutoFill section of Safari settings
                                       Save Password
                                  Never for This Website
                                             Not Now
    This pop-up message is new after the iOS 7 upgrade that just started to appearing in the last few hours.

  • SSH local database username and password not working

    I have a weird issue. I recently setup an ASA 5510 and had SSH working. To make it easier on my VPN users I then decided I wanted to setup a Windows 2008 Network Policy Server for RADIUS authentication. Ever since I added the RADIUS part to aaa authentication, when I use SSH to connect to the ASA it will not take the local user name and password I have setup. I can however get in using a Domain user name and password. Below is the SSH and AAA configuration. Am I missing something here? The username and password in the ASA is not on the domain and it's like the ASA is not even trying LOCAL when it tries to authenticate. I want it to use the local username and password if possible. I'm kind of new to ASA's..
    On another note, I have never been able to SSH in on the internal interface. I always get a "The remote system refused the connection" error message. I can only use the outside interface.
    Site-ASA# sh run | in ssh
    aaa authentication ssh console SERVER_RADIUS LOCAL
    ssh 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 outside
    ssh 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 inside
    ssh timeout 60
    ssh version 2
    Site-ASA# sh run | in aaa
    aaa-server SERVER_RADIUS protocol radius
    aaa-server SERVER_RADIUS (inside) host 10.0.0.6
    aaa authentication ssh console SERVER_RADIUS LOCAL
    aaa authentication http console SERVER_RADIUS LOCAL
    Site-ASA#
    If there are any other config that would help I would be more than happy to display them
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the reply. I was just coming in to update this because you are exactly correct. For some reason I kept thinking that if the authentication failed via RADIUS it would use local which is not the case.
    Problem (or no problem) resolved.

  • One username and password not being added to keychain

    I have entered a username and password for a webpage and answered yes when asked it I wanted this saved it to my keychain.
    However I can not find the u/n and pass word in my keychain (Safari>Preferences>Passwords) and this u/n and pw is not shared with my other devices.  All my other u/n and pw are in my keychain and are shared with all my other devices.
    Can I manually add a u/n and pw to my keychain?

    Hi Matt,
    I did previously have "Private Browsing" selected and deselected that and that is when I could set up FF with my username and pw but could not on Wells Fargo. So, I did what you suggested and that was to delete cookies because that seemed like a good reason but alas, it still will not give me the option to set up the username/pw.
    I would not be surprised if it is Wells Fargo, they are a bit of a pain. You cannot even save them in Bookmarks because I was told they are constantly making changes to their site and this stops the bookmark from working.
