Cannot install program, password not recognized

I am not able to install, the password doesn`t match

If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then possibly the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
Otherwise, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but you won't be able to unlock the Keychain. If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it. You’ll need to reset your keychain in the preferences of the Keychain Access application.

  • ID and password not recognized

    I have an iCloud account and everything was super until two days ago. I, by mistake, deleted the user Library directory so the Mac said "An error occourred. You can't log in" or something like that. I re-installed lion and now, when I try to log in in the iCloud "tab" on System Preferences, the Mac says "ID or Password not recognized, try to log in after a whiile" or also "You're already logged in" or "I cant' send a new verification mail, there's a problem with the server".
    With my iPhone end with the other installation of lion on an other HDD (but also on www.icloud.com) everythig is ok.
    I have two HDD: an SSD where I put system files and in the other there is my home directory. I use symbolik link in order to have the user library on the SSD. I think I messed up with permission because I use my old home directory with this new user (for example I need the password just to delete a file from the "Download" directory...)
    Sorry for my bad english and the long post...
    Thank you everyone!

  • Wifi password not recognized

    hi,
    I'm really going crazy with my iphone.
    since a software update last week, my wifi connection at home is not working anymore.
    I've tried everything described on the support side and things I found here in the forum, as
    1. Tap Settings > WiFi > Other network
    2. Enter the name of the network you are trying to log onto
    3. Tap Security and tell the iPod what type of security the network is using
    4. Tap Password and enter the network password
    TRIED - PASSWORD NOT RECOGNIZED
    If this still doesn't work, reset your network settings (tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network settings and try the steps above again once the iPhone restarts.
    TRIED - PASSWORD NOT RECOGNIZED
    my router at home is from linksys...
    as I said, until last week, it worked properly without any problems...
    now, the iphone only finds my wifi and asks for the password and after typing it I always geht the info, that network connection failed...
    I have no ideas anymore what I can do and would highly appreciate your help

    Have you experienced a problem connecting to any other wi-fi networks that you have access to since installing firmware update 3.0?
    If not, have you checked Linksys's website to see if a firmware update is available for your wireless router model that you haven't installed?
    Have you tried re-setting your wireless router? If not, disconnect any computer(s) from your wireless network - turn wi-fi access off or power your computer(s) off. Turn your wireless router off followed by turning your modem off. Wait a few minutes followed by reversing this. Power your modem back on allowing it to completely reset followed by powering your wireless router back on allowing it to completely reset with the modem. This one may be a long shot, but you never know.

  • HT202274 Password change old password not recognized after 10.9.5 upgrade

    God bless you, peace.
    macbook pro 2012 user password not recognized after 10.9.4 too 10.9.5 upgrade plus tech work at apple.
    I want to change user password, it is allowing me to get into user account and admin account on computer but I recently changed it for the tech work to be done. I would like to put the password back now to old password or a new one but... The few days old new password pre update and pre tech work is not being accepted to allow me to change to another password.
    recent update, after 10.9.4 to 10.9.5 update and apple tech work done.
    1. Tech work replaced optical drive,
    2. 10.9.4 to 10.9.5 upgrade left computer endlessly booting up, then got into finder window tried to read backup drive and screen went to black curser and could not backup information as techs decided may need to be done before I left it with them.
    3. Also track pad was not (is not again) selecting text to drag unless real hard press and then only intermittently would select text or just drop the selection (not hold the selected text after a long scroll select, did work at first after tech work but back to not working). It is still not responding easily when pressed, but it is much better, as they did something with software they said. Today While typing this I am trying to select words misspelled and it does not select them unless I press not as hard it is becoming the same as before I see now, sometimes less pressure is needed but more than should be used.
    I noticed today after tech work The Spell check is not responding with a two finger tap on the red underlined misspelled words without multiple try's with two finger tap. The curser moves around after selecting words also, or when selecting words so hard the curser moves to another place not on the desired words or check box. The curser arrow tip should select the word but it does not recognize unless I put the tail of the arrow onto the word then it recognizes the misspelled word for spell check on two finger gesture.
    It looks like I need to take it back, I tried to call and check to confirm if the track pad intermittently and curser adjustment was serviced. In order to verify I had called three times to get that information to no avail. endless looped in the phone que, one would answer take info and then forward me to a endless loop dial ing phone that never was picked up, supposedly at the Bay street store tech section. Phone voice mail from apple support status on the repair, ...Juliano from Bay Street Apple repair store Emeryville, ca left a voice message... just generically said optical drive replacement is successfulI, I noticed right away three items were to be addressed but only the optical drive was mentioned, so I called three times to try and verify the other problems. One whole minute just to select this text and copy it to notes for a backup. It would not select at first, then after selected it would not copy it, then it would not paste to notes, it paste the last cut and paste I did 10 minutes ago.
    I do not have a easy excellent wifi connection for my wifi only phone and would prefer email or chat for repair help. apple Repair No: R142180337

    Try running the combo update. It fixes more files/data than the App Store upgrade.

  • SQL Svr 2012 / SharePoint 2013 "Install-SPRSService is not recognized..."

    Greetings --
    I'm having a heck of a time trying to get Reporting Services integrated with SharePoint 2013.  The end result is that no matter what I try, I keep getting the "The term 'Install-SPRSService' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet" error
    which thereby prevents me from finalizing the integration with SP 2013.
    Following is a description of my lab + the steps I've followed to try to resolve:
    In a virtual environment with 3 machines, I have one set as the Domain Controller, one with SQL Server 2012 installed (no reporting services), one with SharePoint Server 2013.
    The domain is working fine... no problems there.  SQL Server 2012 is working fine... I can connect to it locally and remotely, execute commands, etc.
    On the SharePoint 2013 machine, I have tried two ways... 1) install SharePoint 2013 first, then install SQL Server requirements... 2) install SQL Server requirements first, then SharePoint 2013.
    In both methods, I am installing both "Reporting Services - SharePoint" and "Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint Products" on the same machine as SharePoint Server 2013.
    My understanding was that when SP is installed first, the SQL Server installation should auto-register the necessary components (meaning running Install-SPRSService and ServiceProxy are not required). However, in this scenario, this doesn't appear to
    have happened.  The service does not appear at all within SharePoint.  Attempting to run "Install-SPRSService" fails with the "not recognized" error.
    In the second scenario (Installing SQL Server components first, then SharePoint second), it is my understanding that the "Install-SPRSService and Install-SPRSServiceProxy" must be run manually. With both SQL Server components and SharePoint 2013
    successfully installed, running "Install-SPRSService" fails with the "not recognized" error.
    I would also like to point out that I am executing the Install command from the "SharePoint 2013 Mangement Shell" (right clicking and running as Administrator). 
    Any suggestions or nuggets-of-wisdom would be GREATLY appreciated!

    Hi,
    I had the same issue when installing SSRS in SharePoint integrated mode. I had SharePoint management Shell opened, installed SQL binaries and then tried to run command Install-SPRSService
    and Install-SPRSServiceProxy. I got the same errors.
    But then I thought, if assemblies for SharePoint are loaded when Management Shell is opened, the assemblies were not
    there when I opened PowerShell. So I just closed Management Shell, opened it again and everything worked as expected.
    Hope it helps

  • Administrative Password Not Recognized After Clean Install

    I had my hard drive replaced by Apple. They did install Mountain Lion. Fortunately I backed with Time Machine my data. When I started the computer for the first time I selected the option to transfer the data from a Time Machine back up. Everything went fine, registration was sent to Apple, logged into the wireless network etc. The last step asked me to log into my account, but the password is not recognized. I am sure of my password. There is nothing else I can do but restarting the computer. There is no option to go back at the beggining. I tried to boot to recovery partition ( by Holding down command r when the computer is off and reboot) so I can reset the admin password but it takes me again to the same screen where I have to put my password that is not recognized. I would really appreciate any help! Thanks

    I'm not sure I fully understand which screen it is booting into, but it sounds like Apple's Genius may have already set up your computer with a Password, in which case I might try assuming that he left the "password" selection blank.  When the screen asks for your password, have you tried just hitting the "enter" key while leaving the box blank?  Failing that, i would probably suggest, I'm sorry to say, returning to the Store and having them diagnose what is wrong with THEIR installation of Mountain Lion.
    Hope this helps

  • Cannot install program after begin removed from Group Policy published programs

    Hello,
    We recently attempted to publish a program through Group Policy to allow users to install it but due to some requirements of the installer, it did not work. We removed it as a published program and now someone who attempted to install it through that method
    cannot install the program at all. When they attempt to run the MSI from their local machine (not from a server share) they get an error saying "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable". We tried putting a copy
    of the MSI in the network location it was looking for (which is where it was when it was a published program) and ran in to the same errors as before when it was a published program.
    When we ran the installer as a different user that had admin access the program installed correctly and without issue. To avoid having to run as a different user in case the computer only has one admin account, is there a way to clear the user account's
    memory of the msi or something?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Based on my knowledge, deployed msi application will be installed before the computer allows a user to logon if you choose Assign. Otherwise, you need to use Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features\install a program from internet to get the msi
    installed.
    Did you mean to deploy a MSI file to each computers? Is it not the method written in this KB?
    How to use Group Policy to remotely install software in Windows Server 2008 and in Windows Server 2003
    https://support.microsoft.com/kb/816102?wa=wsignin1.0#method6
    If you just deploy a file from a shared network location, make sure that all your users has the permission to access the Network location.
    Also, please check the policy under Applocker if there is any policy block the installation of MSI for your domain user except the admin account.

  • Cannot install - Installer buttons not responding OSX Mountain Lion

    When it ask me to click next, or do i want updates none of the buttons respond. So I cannot install it with the web installer? I click them and they show as if pressed, but nothing happens? Only way to install is use the offline installer. I have just done a clean install of Mountain Lion so it can't be my system!
    Is the installer just busted or something else? See the retry button? Well it does not do anything, either by clicking or pushing enter. It presses and highlights like it is clicked but that's it. All I get the is the "funk" sound from my macbook when I press enter.

    1. Download the installer.
    2. Quit Safari
    3. Double click the installer from it's download location.
    4. Run it.
    Should work fine.

  • How could I allow selected Domain users or Computers to install programs and not be asked for Admin credentials.

     We have a handfull of Laptops in the company. They are all joined to our
    Domain. The default domain policy keeps these non-adminstrators from installing
    software without prodiving the administrator credentials for the domain. We have a
    few users that we would let install programs but would prefer not to make administrators.
    I have been all over the place searching for solutions. Is there an actual field to allow this
    in Group Policy? All the suggestions I have seen have dead-ended on me....Any thoughts.
    Server is Windows 2003R2 and clients are all WIndows 7 Pro. Again, at this point I would like
    to be able to allow specified computers this right.

    Based on what I have found Power Users group has no added user rights in Windows 7:
    From http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771990.aspx:
    By default, members of this group have no more user rights or permissions than a standard user account. The Power Users group in previous versions of Windows was designed to give users specific administrator rights and permissions to perform common system
    tasks. In this version of Windows, standard user accounts inherently have the ability to perform most common configuration tasks, such as changing time zones. For legacy applications that require the same Power User rights and permissions that were present
    in previous versions of Windows, administrators can apply a security template that enables the Power Users group to assume the same rights and permissions that were present in previous versions of Windows.
    So despite the caution it does not  seem like an option. As for Publishing Software, if the user needs to install something "on the fly" that will not work. I guess i could just add to the administrator group as needed in order to install programs then
    remove. Now the user is remote operationg on cached credentials. Would then not need to come to the domain and log in locally in order to update their security tokens.

  • Cannot install program because newer version already exists?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to install fontographer but it says it cannot install on this disk because a newer version of the program is already installed.
    I find this quite strange because I've completely removed every single file of the other version, but still it says it's installed.
    Anyone knows how I can solve thi problem?
    Many thanks to anyone who is willing to help me.
    Greetz,
    Finn.

    Use the developers method to completely uninstall the newer version of the program.
    Sometimes a program will leave it's preference files because you might be uninstalling and reinstalling the same version to fix a software issue. The older version see's the newer version preference files and gives the errors.
    Use the free Easy Find and find the programs file(s) and/or just remove them from your ~/Library/Preferences folder by Finder > Go to Folder > /Library/Preferences
    There may be files in other locations as well. Perhaps it's best to ask the developer where all the files are for completel removal.
