  • CUE Administrator password has been lost

    Hi All,
    From Cisco document it clearly mentioned that if you have forgotten your Administrator password during the pre-install process we can follow the procedure to login the CUE GUI
    Problem: I cannot get in to the GUI.
    Explanation You forgot to enter a system administrator during the initialization wizard.
    Recommended Action Use the administrator login ID created during the post-installation procedure or create an administrator login ID using the following CLI commands, starting in Cisco Unity Express EXEC mode, where user-id is the user ID and password is the user's password:
    a. cue-10-0-0-0# username user-id create
    b. cue-10-0-0-0# username user-id password password
    c. cue-10-0-0-0# config t
    d. cue-10-0-0-0(config)# groupname Administrators member user-id
    I m sorry but I always get the invalid command whenever I put in the word "password"
    Please let me know if I m missing something or this is an invalid document

    Hi Trieu,
    This doc has a better explanation of the required tasks;
    Unity Express GUI Password Recovery

  • Accessing a Windows Server 2012R2 system when the administrator password has been forgotten

    Hello,
    Is there a last resort method of getting back into the system?
    I understand that with 2012R2, you can no longer make a Windows recovery disk.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi Keith,
    I agree with Milos, there is no other solution from Microsoft to solve forgotten password issue other than restore:

  • HT201460 We currently have Ipads set up with an Apple Configurator profile and the removal password has been lost.  What options do we have to remove or alter the profile?

    We have tried to alter the profile to push out a different password and to push out no password, but the the new settings do not copy over to the Ipad when connected via usb cable.
    Any ideas?

    You can try to reset and configure the iPad as a new device.
    Have a look at recovery mode and DFU mode.

    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.

  • The wifi has been lost or disconnected on my iPad. It's the iPad 2 and has not been updated yet. It's IOS 6.1.3 .. how do I add a network back onto it? I have typed in the name and chosen each of the securities and still hasn't connected!

    Hey there Luba_kalstad,
    It sounds like you are unable to join your network and cannot see it in the Wi-Fi list in Settings. I would try the troubleshooting outlined in this article named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
    Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
    Tap and Forget this Network.
    Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
    Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
    Update your device to the latest version of software.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
    And this section down toward the bottom if needed:
    Unable to locate a Wi-Fi network
    Verify that the network is available by tapping Settings > Wi-Fi and choosing from the available networks.Note: It may take a few seconds for the Wi-Fi network name to appear.
    Move closer to your wireless router (access point) and attempt to locate the Wi-Fi network.
    If you do not see the network you would like to join, you may be attempting to connect to a hidden network. Learn how to join a hidden network.
    Supported Wi-Fi configurations vary by iOS device model. Find out which standards your device supports3.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
    previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
    recently used Bluetooth accessories
    VPN and APN settings
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • HT6154 My Apple account password has been reset on the count that it says it's incorrect.  I just made a new one after making a previous new one, and now it says the new one is incorrect after trying to log in to download an app.  EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED & C

    My Apple account password has been reset a couple times due to Apple telling me my passwords are incorrect.  I know they aren't because I have already had to change the password three times, and I keep record of my password.  Yet, it continuously tells me my password is incorrect.  I have just changed it, again, and now I cannot log into the itunes store to download an app because it's telling me my new password is incorrect.
    I just bought the new iphone 5s today, so does this have anything to do with it?  Please help, this is extremely frustrating.

    Need to Resume download to complete the ongoing Process.
    Last Resort, put the iPhone in DFU mode (Google How to do that). Connect in iTunes. Follow on-screen prompts to Restore. All Data would be lost, if not backed up earlier.
    To save the photographs you may have to use third party software. Google is your friend.

  • Reconnecting to AMF channel after connection with BlaseDS has been lost

    Hi there,
    I am beginner to flex and I have a problem with to login after the connection to the BlaseDS has been lost.
    Setup:
    The flex client calls a HelloWorld Java service exposed using spring-flex.  This service is called when the user hit the Hello World button on the UI.  The channel set on which this service is exposed is secured and for now we will resort to programmatic authentication.  (The user does is not required to input his username and password, just to simplify it a bit). 
    As a client framework Cairngrom is used and an appriopriate delegate is setup to handle the remote object call.
    Here is a snippet from the HelloWorld delegate class called after the user hits the Hello World button.  
              public function getHelloWorldMessage():void{
                if(!__service.channelSet.authenticated){
                    var token:AsyncToken = __service.channelSet.login("username", "password");
                    token.addResponder(new AsyncResponder(
                        function(event:ResultEvent, token:Object = null):void {
                            Alert.show("You are logged in", "Login");
                            // Send the amf request to the backend.
                            var token2:AsyncToken = __service.getHelloWorld();
                            // Add the responder.
                            token2.addResponder(__responder);
                        function(event:FaultEvent, token:Object = null):void {
                            Alert.show("You are NOT logged in", "Login");
                }else{
                    // Send the http request.
                    var token2:AsyncToken = __service.getHelloWorld();
                    // Add the responder.
                    token2.addResponder(__responder);
    The __service is the Hello World service has been defined as follows.
    <mx:RemoteObject id="helloWorldServiceRemoteObject" destination="helloWorldService" channelSet="{helloWorldChannels}"/>
    <mx:ChannelSet id="helloWorldChannels" >
            <mx:AMFChannel uri="http://localhost:8080/helloworldservice-war-1.0.0.SNAPSHOT/messagebroker/amf/" />       
    </mx: ChannelSet>   
    What happens:
    User clicks on the Helloworld, the program hits the getHelloWorldMessage and the ChannelSet.login("username", "password") is called.   The channelset authentication flag is set to true, and the _authAgent present in the ChannelSet class which was previously null is set
    The success handler is called and the secured spring function returns the "Hello World" message.  
    I restart the BlaseDS server to simulate an intermittent connection.
    Now the user clicks on Hello World button again and recieves an error since the authentication flag is still set to true there is no attempt to login again.
    The following FaultEvent is caught
    faultCode=Client.Authentication
    faultString=An Authentication object was not found in the SecurityContext
    The user reclicks the Hello World button this time however the ChannelSet.authenticated  is set to false and the client code attempts to reconnect however fails.  The snippet below is an extract from the ChannelSet.as, when the user reclicks, the second condition is met and the  IllegalOperationException with error message "ChannelSet is in the process of logging in or logging out."  is thrown.  The condition is met since the _authAgent is not null. 
    public function login(username:String, password:String, charset:String=null):AsyncToken
            if (authenticated)
                throw new IllegalOperationError("ChannelSet is already authenticated.");
            if ((_authAgent != null) && (_authAgent.state != AuthenticationAgent.LOGGED_OUT_STATE))
                throw new IllegalOperationError("ChannelSet is in the process of logging in or logging out.");
            if (charset != Base64Encoder.CHARSET_UTF_8);
                charset = null; // Use legacy charset, ISO-Latin-1.
    Does someone have any ideas as to how to resolve this?

    Hi. That sounds like a bug to me. What version/build of BlazeDS are you using? I'd try this out with the latest (nightly) BlazeDS 3.x or BlazeDS trunk build and see if it's still an issue. If it's still an issue you can log a bug at http://bugs.adobe.com/blazeds. I'd think that after getting the authentication error the state of _authAgent would be set to the logged out state but that doesn't seem to be the case.
    You may be able to manually reset it for the time being. Maybe try calling ChannelSet.logout() in your fault handler and see if that does it.

  • After password has been reset how do I reset keychain?

    After password has been reset how do I reset keychain?

    That article is a great help if you remember your OLD login password.
    If not, the bad news is in this article:
    OS X: Keychain Access asks for keychain "login" after changing login password
    read it carefully, It explains how to change your keychain by using the OLD password.
    If you don't remember your original (former) account password
    If you don't remember your original password, you'll need to delete the keychain. Deleting a keychain also deletes all the password data saved in that keychain.
    If this applies, it means is that your old saved passwords are lost.
    You will have to start collecting them anew and adding them to the new keychain. Use Web mail and log in to your email with a Browser. Get them to send you your old password or reset it, then record the new one in Mail Preferences, and it will be saved in the current login keychain.
    You will have to do a similar exercise with your other saved passwords.

  • HT201303 my iphon has been lost .. can i stop it or know where it is

    may iphon has been lost ... can i stop it or know where it is

    If you had "Find My iPhone" enabled in Settings > iCloud then you may be able to locate it. If not, you cannot locate it. If it was enabled then you can try locating it via http://icloud.com on a computer or the App "Find My iPhone" on another iDevice. Note: this will only work if your device is connected to a network and the device hasn't already been restored as new and/or "Find My iPhone" has not been disabled on it. Note: Disabling "Find My iPhone" is much more difficult in iOS 7.
    If you think that your device was stolen rather than lost then you should report it to the police. In either case you should contact your carrier, change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

  • My iphone has been lost in spain what can I do besides make a complaint to the police and lock it with the located iphone ?

    my iphone has been lost in spain what can I do besides make a complaint to the police and lock it with the located iphone ?

    The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
    If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
    If locked with a passcode, all a thief or whoever finds it has to do is force the phone into recovery mode & restore it. While this deletes all data on the phone, it also removes the passcode so the phone can then be used as a phone or touch.

  • My iPod has been lost and the iPod is offline so I cannot track my iPod,what should I do?:(

    My iPod has been lost and my iPod is offline so it cannot show where the iPod is,someone please tell me what to do:(

    Other than just continuing to look for it, there's nothing you can do to locate it. Notify the police in case someone turns it in, and as a precaution change passwords for your Apple ID and any other online services you may have used from the iPod.
    Regards.

    My Mac book air has been lost, how can i track? I have been already using Icloud id to track...but the system is still offline...what other ways can i track this?

    You cannot. Your best course of action is to immediately change all your internet passwords, notify the police and your insurance company. Send the remote wipe command to the MBA through iCloud.com and buy a new one from the insurance reimbursement.
