I have never heard of what you are asking for.
You probably meant  admin password or backdoor bassword.
Unfortunately, business class notebooks, such as yours have very robust security.
Only an HP Service Center or a BIOS company can help you by removing the BIOS CMOS chip. They wuld have to replace it with a chip programmed with the appropriate BIOS ROM file that is by default without a password.

  • Satellite C855D-16V - BIOS & HDD Password - Need some information

    Hi - just bought a new C855D-16V, wiped the Windows 8 OS and installed Windows 7. I see that the BIOS has options for BIOS and HDD passwords, and I would like to use one of these to secure my data.
    I am looking for a detailed explanation of how they work, what effect they have, how reliable and secure they are. Does HDD password protect the disk if removed and mounted on a Linux system, for example? Is it possible to export a back-up key for emergencies? Does BIOS PW lock the HDD, or just stop the mainboard from booting? Can't find anything via google, and the "user manual" is useless.
    As above, I am NOT trying to bypass or remove an existing password. I am deciding whether BIOS or HDD provides sufficient protection. I would have used Truecrypt, but it doesn't work well with backup utils like Macrium & TrueImage.
    Can anyone link me to a good, detailed explanation of these options, please?
    Thanks!

  • I am trying to restore a backup onto my iphone from itunes but it asked me for a backup password which I cant remember, is there anyway that I can reset the password and not lose my backup?

    I am trying to restore a backup onto my iphone from itunes on a pc windows 8 but it asked me for a backup password which I cant remember, is there anyway that I can reset the password and not lose my backup? Any help is very appreciated

    Try entering the password on your iPhone

  • But how do I create a new iTunes backup password without knowing the previous one?

    In case anyone keeps track of such things, I'm among those folks who really doesn't recall ever being asked to create an iTunes backup password, but that's irrelevant to my question.
    I'm not in any bind. I don't need my backup files to restore anything. I will shed no tears as they are moved to the Recycle Bin (indeed, I will gladly do the deed myself).
    That said, it appears impossible to create a new backup password without knowing the previous one.
    If the only "solution" is to wipe my iPhone's memory and start from scratch, I will be a sad camper.
    Any help? Are backups to iCloud encrypted?
    Cheers...

    Additionally:
    Be super critical & meticulous (and whatever other synonym I missed) when you get a new password:
    Write it onto your bedroom wall, or someplace off of a computer that you will always find.
    If you active 2-step verification, the key is VERY important. Lose it & you may be toast.
    If you don’t 2 step verify, & use the Security Question instead --> do not lose, or forget the answers.
    Very nearly the same outcome!!!!!:  Bad experience.
    If you add a 2nd email address, make sure its a RESCUE address not just an alternate address.
    If you lose these, you lose access to your 3rd party purchases via Appstore for future upgrade. That will make you VEWY, VEWY UNHAPPY. Apple new OS versions do update, but add a new device & likely you will be unable to use your content on that device. It will never load if the ID locks up.

    I have forgotten my iPhone backup password. Is there a way of getting it as I am trying to load my old data from iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5?

    If on a Mac, and you elected to save such to your Keychain, you can recover it from your Keychain. Otherwise, you can't.
    While you can continue to sync/backup, if you can't remember it & want to remove it, you'll have to delete your existing backups & restore the phone as a new device. Your data will be unrecoverable.

  • How do i get backup password if i forgot

    how can i reset my backup password

    It's not stored anywhere, the only way to get it or change it is to remember it.
    From iTunes: About iOS backups :
    When your backup is encrypted, you'll need to enter the password when enabling or disabling encryption or when restoring from the backup.
    Warning: Make sure it's a password that you'll remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
    If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and choose set up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.

  • HT201269 i bought my iphone 4 about a year ago and just decided to upgrade it to ios5 just recently. My phone restored to to its factory settings and when I clicked continue restore from back up it is now asking a backup password which i dont remember set

    i bought my iphone 4 about a year ago and just decided to upgrade it to ios5 just recently. My phone restored to to its factory settings and when I clicked continue restore from back up it is now asking a backup password which i dont remember setting up one. I am currently using a windows vista PC. How can I retrieve the password or restore all my old data into the new OS. I have been reading blogs about the same situation and is it true that it is one of apple's bugs?

    It is NOT a bug.  You provided a password.  If you can't remember it, you can't restore your phone from backup.  Very simple.

  • Envy DV7 7212nr - I need the BIOS backup file.

    Hi,
    I installed the Lojack software on my laptop and the windows stopped working and started showing a blue screenerror. Because of this my laptop don't work and I can’t restore or reinstall Windows.
    My laptop is a Envy DV7 7212nr.
    The only solution is to rewrite the BIOS chip. But the BIOS file that HP provides to download can not be written directly to the chip because it is very large and can only be used when the laptop is running normally (this is not my situation).
    So I need a BIOS backup's file to get record the BIOS chip. But as I don't have this backup file, I need another laptop like mine to get this BIOS backup file.
    So I need someone who has this laptop help me.
    Please, if you have the Envy laptop DV7 7212nr and you know make a backup the BIOS, please send this backup file it to me.
    If I do not get this BIOS backup file, I will not have to fix my laptop.
    Recalling that the file that HP offers for download not work. I need the file obtained by backup BIOS directly of a laptop Envy DV7 7212nr that is running normally.
    Thank you.

    This is the process to rollback to working version of BIOS.
    1-Immediately after powering on hold/tap the Esc key.
    2-When the menu appears, tap F2 for System Diagnostics.
    3-In the list of items will be BIOS Management.Use the arrow key to move down & highlight it.Press Enter key.
    4-You should now have a Rollback BIOS option.Use arrow key again to highlight and press Enter key.

  • HT4946 how to find out my iphone backup password

    how do i find out my iphone backup password?

    If you created a backup in iTunes that includes a password, unless you created a separate password, and you would know this if you did, your backup password is generally your iTunes account password (your Apple ID password). Try that.
