Administrator account locked/password was changed

Hi All,
Administrator account locked/password was changed. Is there any way to see the logs to see when this happened or by whom?
Any way to lock this down then it can't be changed by another administrator account? Limit it so it can only be seen/changed by some people like A or B?

My Macbook was hacked by somebody right after activating downloaded VLC player.
I couldn’t control my machine. Every thing was messed up! Finally after reboot I realized that even my administration password was changed. Stupid hint I was able to reed: What located in box above low case ? I used my friends computer and founded hot to fix my problem using Unix commands to reboot in a single user mode. I founded a lot of different solutions which had prity the same beginnings but very complicated continuation, which, I understood will force me to cach during restoration anuther crap – time bomb in my mac! Finaly I did restor. somehow. But still feel somebodyies presents. Safary messed up – I will send you a log Itunes – messed up. Speaker in a top menu – grayed, and I can’t control my volume. But the most triky thing – bouth my Apple keybords – internal and mostly bluetouth external also working and typing wired! I am sorry for my spelling, because I cant check spell for Mac’s Word (in Microsoft it was F7) I have also several attacks from my neighbors by community I know their names, because they are somethere very close to me – I can see them throuth FI-FI connection. They often kick-me out from my place and started to use my resaurces. And also Mackeeper make me a hard time!
In Microsoft times u just reinstalled computer – clean installetion from corporate licensed disk. But now I am a beginner in MAC – I love it! But a lot of new and triky – at this way
Fore example – my goal – to do fool Macbook backup at external USB drive using boot srartup option and make my life yaser in case of crash. But now, I don’t know if I can trust recommended program Carbon copy cloner – Ms. Bombich?
I am very sorry for my spelling, because I feel somebodies presents, who playin with me.
Final question Do I need some antivirus Mac compatable which is update paches, service packs? How to map defolt documents folder not to a local, but to external USB?
Esquse me for a lot of questions, but I am beginner in MAC, and I LOVE it!
PS. Good news. Looks like Safari came back! Somebody, probably allredy helping!
But my interface qute different from original – so something still wrong!

I have changed my password and still can't get home sharing to work. Get the message "Home sharing could not be activated because the account or password was incorrect." It's what I have used to sign in here! Any help much appreciated.

So I reset my Apple ID password. Which then stopped my MobileMe account from working. Hang on - these were 2 different accounts a while ago, with different passwords!!!
So I have logged back in to MobileMe with my AppleID, and that's working again. After a short wait I can now create Home Sharing again.
Folks, I think we have just had our Apple IDs merged with our MobileMe accounts!! With no consultation or warning.
My guess is that this is the most seamless way for Apple to do it, as the vast majority of people use only one email address and one password for everything. Only those of us who had the same email adress but different a different passwords for MobileMe and Apple ID will have noticed. Annoying for us few, but a clever strategy on Apple's part, becasue we have been driven to fix the issue ourselves by chaning the password, and in doing so we have realised that our mobileme account is now the same thing as our Apple ID.

When we purchased our mac two years ago, we set up the iCloud account. this past winter I created a new iCloud account thinking I was changing it. I now cannot access anything on the old iCloud acct and my computer hasn't been backed up either in awhile

when we purchased our mac two years ago, we set up the iCloud account. this past winter I created a new iCloud account thinking I was changing it. I now cannot access anything on the old iCloud acct and my computer hasn't been backed up either in awhile. How do i go back to that old account and delete it so that I can continue backing up on the newest account? I changed it because the original one I created an iCloud account with is a yahoo account email address and I am deleting my yahoo account for being compromised too may times.

Well, you can go to Manage your Apple ID and change the password if you can answer the Security Questions:
Apple - My Apple ID
If you cannot remember the Security Questions you can contact iTunes Support to reset them for you:
New iTunes Support - US and ww
Once you get your password reset and you can access your account info on Manage your Apple ID, you can change your ID. You won't be able to use the same email address that you are using for the new ID unless you change that one to something else. But, if you can get back into your old ID and change it to a new email address, then you can go on using that old ID, and just manually move the iCloud stuff you added to your new ID back onto the old one. Most of the stuff (like Contacts, Calendar, Notes) can be added by logging onto https://www.icloud.com on your Mac and doing it that way (it is a lot simpler when you have an actual keyboard in my opinion)
Hope this helps you to sort out the two ID business. If you have any questions, please post back!
Cheers,
GB

My password was changed now it says system lockef how do I get back in ky computer.

My password was changed I don't know how to get back in my computer. It only show these on the screen F1 F2 F7 F9 and F10. How do I reboot my computer so I can get into it znd start over

Enterprise or business class notebooks such as the ProBook series have very stringent security.
Since you stated "system locked" that is likely to mean someone put in a power on password.
Access to your notebook will require replacement of the BIOS CMOS chip.
HP or a BIOS company will be the best choices for that, but if you have a high level of electroonics disassembly and soldering skill you can do it yourself. You will need an identical CMOS chip that has been programmed with a fresh copy of the BIOS ROM file that is applicable to your notebook.

My password was changed against my will ...

Hello,
I had an account. The ID is: [Redacted for privacy]
While it was opened, I saw that the password was changed against my will.
I tried to reset it, it did not work out. I knew that the password doesn't even exist, which is bizarre. I have used this acocunt for many years.
It is clear that someone has hacked it.
I need to reset it now and then get it back after getting a new protected password.
How could I proceed?
Thanks in advance.
First things, first: for your safety and protection, please never, ever include any personally identifiable information such as your real name, Skype account name, e-mail address, or a telephone number in a post on a public Community or forum such as this. Thanks!

Hi, Chafic, and welcome to the Community,
As ridiculous as this may sound, create a new account so that you can contact Skype Customer Service in order to recover your first account.
Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
More details to help you through the process: you will need to proceed through each step, one at a time. Sign on to the Skype website as requested. Choose the subject and topic which most closely matches the item you need assistance with. Then, continue past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the blue "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip through Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started. When you complete the webform and click Submit, your information is relayed to Skype and you will receive a reply via e-mail.

Windows 7: Trust Relationship Error - Local Administrator Account Locked.

I have 2 Windows 7 Professional machines that recently locked me out citing the "Trust Relationship between this workstation and primary domain failed".
I assumed all I would have to do is log in as local administrator and remove it from the domain and then re-add it. When I tried to log on, it told me that I have the password was incorrect - which I knew it wasn't. After a
few tries I got a different message that said that the account was locked. No idea how this could have happened. Every other local account was locked as well.
I checked the AD on our 2003 server and I didn't see anything out of the norm. The computers were in the correct OU, and were not disabled in anyway. I searched online for a solution, but they all required me to be able to log on to the local
admin, which is disabled.
I tried to boot to Safe Mode with a Command Prompt and typed in: net user administrator /active:yes .
It told me that the change had been made, but when I reboot it still shows the local account as disabled.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: It is Windows 7 Professional x64

I have had this issue twice as well. However I have been always been able to log in with local admin rights. removing then rejoining to domain seems to never get things back to normal for me. Once it is reset and joined back to the domain all software just
seems to be missing but still there at the same time. Like Antivirus shows its installed in c:\program files but its not running. If I go to domain users start menu everything is missing but go into c:\program files and its all there. So every time I have
seen this error a reimage is what I do seems to work a lot better than dealing with the head aches. Sorry I was not any help but that is my two cents.

Administrator Account locked

hi,
in our Portal the Administrator Account gets locked every 2-3 hours. we also change the password in the secure store.
is there a chance to find out, why? a central log or something? i can't analyze every log, because we have 7 instances with each 4 servers.

Hi Andre
If you check the security logs in j2ee/cluster/server<n>/log/system, when the user gets locked you will see log entries from the failed authentication attempt, and more information including hopefully the IP address of the machine where the request comes from, and the login module stack used during the authentication. Maybe this information will help isolate the origin of the invalid administrator password.
An alternative approach, which is dependent on the version of the AS Java is to activate some tracing.
There is a new trace location available for problems such as this - com.sap.security.core.locking
You can get the info from this location by adding it to the Log Configurator service in the Visual Administrator if it is available, and adjusting the severity accordingly. Then examine the defaultTraces when the user gets locked
However it is easier in this case to use the web diagtool. Follow note 1045019 to deploy the web diagtool, if not done before
Then to start the trace, follow example 2 and add just com.sap.security.core.locking and start the trace. The potential problem here is that the diagtool will be running for 2-3 hours while you wait for the user to be locked, however hopefully by just tracing location com.sap.security.core.locking the resultant log will not be too large. The diagtool will capture traces from all servers in a system
If the location is not available in the diagtool then perhaps it is not available for your system SP
When the user is locked, hopefully the trace will give you information about the origin IP, the stack trace and the auth stack used

Administrator account locked...any solutions?

the master password was not accepted when i tried to login to the system info link as an administrator on successful installation of the NW04(630). there was apparently nothing worng with the entered password......still, any solutions on how to unlock the account? also, to change password?

If you are talking about J2EE stack, then you may look at the option to activate superadmin account (SAP*) through
Config Tool => UME properties.

Administrator account and password problem

I just got a new Macbook for Christmas I have been trying to install LimeWire onto my laptop and every time the Installer asks me to type in my administrator name and password. I've been putting in the username I used to set up my computer but its not working. Since I am the only person using this computer doesn't it make me the administrator? I have already tried putting in the Mac OS X Install disk and reseting the password for my account. I even went to System Preferences--Accounts and changes my password there but nothing has worked. *What am I doing wrong?* Do I need to set myself as an administrator manually? This is so frustrating ><

Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
I've been putting in the username I used to set up my computer but its not working.
If your user is already an Administrator user, the user name should be input into the dialog box by default. You should not need to type your name in. Look inside the Accounts System Preferences. Is your user listed as a "Standard" user? Or an "Admin"? If it's "Standard", then you've encountered on of Mac OS X 10.5's bugs. For some reason, some users don't keep their Administrator status. You can follow the instructions in this article to manually set your status to Administrator:

[HELP] My password was changed, I didn't change it...

I was on my skype chatting with people, suddenly my skype kicked me off and presented me with the message that my password had been changed, I tried logging back in and the information was wrong. Assuming I was being hacked I rushed to changed all my passwords. While doing so, as I was changing my skype password using the reset token, I was given the error to contact customer support for further assistance. I then resent the email token tried again and got the same error. None of my other information was changed while I was changing all my passwords. Any solutions?

Verizon Router Password was Changed randomly

Has anyone else experienced this issue before? I have since set up my own WPA2 password myself.
I reset the router by holding the reset button on the back of it, and a rep. directed me to the website where I could set up my own.
My devices would not connect automatically, and then when I went into my Network settings on my TV, it displayed a different password than what was listed on my router. Is it possible that someone hacked into my router? Should I worry about my other personal accounts (Credit cards, online banking, etc.)?
Thanks,
Brian

My password also changed randomly today. The tech was able to help me set up a new password similar to what you described. I would be curious to know as well if I was hacked as well or the reason for the password randomly changing.
