DB Link password reset

The application team wants to know if they can reset the DB link password for all their applications(dev,test & prod) at the same time.
Since lots of apps have these exact kind of DBlinks that need a password reset....can anyone suggest what would be a good approach to tackle this?

I'm not completely sure that I understand the problem...
Assuming that a database link uses a fixed username & password to access a remote database rather than, say, using the current user, you can change the password that is associated with the database link. You'd need to change the password in every database where the link exists (though dev, test, and production databases normally have database links to other dev, test, and production databases rather than all having database links to the same database). You can obviously log on to each database in succession to change the password (i.e. log in to prod, change the password, log in to test, change the password, etc.). That's not literally simultaneously but it can happen in a short time window. Is there really a problem if it takes a couple minutes before the database link in dev is working again? It is, after all, a development environment.
Normally, if you're going to use fixed usernames & passwords in database links, those accounts are created specifically for the database link and the passwords for those accounts never change precisely to avoid coordinating password changes on dozens of databases.

I have another apple ID but I forgot the password and apple does not send the link to reset it to my email. What do I do to have it back?

I have another apple ID but I forgot the password and apple does not send the link to reset it to my email. What do I do to have it back? It is really important.

If you know the answers to your security question for the ID you can use that method to reset the password rather than email (by going to https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid).
If you don't, you'll have to contact iTunes Store support for assistance: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html. They frequently deal with Apple ID issues.

Blackberry ID Password reset email doesn't contain a link to reset password!

I'm having the same issue that this guy had in this forum (which doesn't seem to have a solution?): http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-PlayBook/Blackberry-ID-Password-Reset/m-p/1745415#...
Basically, I'm trying to reset my Blackberry password for my Blackberry Curve. I get a password reset email when i request it, but the email does not contain a link to reset my password. The ENTIRETY of the email is as follows:
"This email has been automatically generated. Please do not reply to this email.
If you have not previously indicated that you wish to receive emails from Research In Motion Limited and/or its affiliated companies regarding exclusive offers and updates about BlackBerry products and services and you would like to do so, please click here.

Does anyone know what the problem is? It's not my web browser distorting the email -- i've tried retrieving the email from Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer.
Solved!

That is very strange indeed...with only 2 possible causes I can think of.
1) Your email app (on your PC) is blocking the link that is included in the email...many email apps will do this and sometimes you must override them. If you have an alternate interface to use (e.g., GMail webmail interface versus Outlook), then try the other and see if that helps. Depending on the email environment (e.g., private corporate email system), it is also possible that some gateway along the path is stripping out the necessary link(s) as a security measure.
2) The reset email facility is actually broken, and the email does not contain what it is supposed to. If that is the case, then it requires formal attention from RIM. The only way to achieve that is for you to contact VZW and have them escalate your case into RIM.
Good luck!

I could not remember my apple ID password so I made a request for a new one. When I received the email with the link on resetting my password it was addressed to John Ohare. My name is not John Ohare. Does this mean someone is hacked my iCloud account?

Password reset; reset link not in email

I keep asking for new password reset and there is no email reply. Then I exceed the reset amount for the 24 hour period. I keep checking the spam folder and still nothing. It's like groundhog day.

I have been experiencing the same problem for about 5 days and it's driving me mad! I receive a reset code, which takes me to Microsoft account p/w reset, but I simply want to access a SKYPE account!

Apple is sending a password reset to an email address that does not exist. How do I update the email? Can't find it in my account.

Why is Apple sending an email to an address I can't find in my account??

Apple will not send you password reset requests in an email. It is likely a phishing email trying to get your personal or security information. Ignore the request and send the email to trash. Do not provide any personal or security information in response to the email. Do not click on any links in the email.

How can I change my password reset email address?

My AppleID password reset link keeps going to an old email address. Is there a way of changing the reset email address?

Go to your country from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 or use AppleCare country number from http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and ask to speak with the Account Security Team...they can handle that for you.

You can't get it reset; if you could there would be no point in having it. If you have an encrypted backup there are two ways this could have happened:
You checked "Encrypt Backup" in iTunes at some time in the past, either intentionally or by accident
You have a corporate MS Exchange account and your Exchange administrator installed a security profile on your phone that requires the phone'a contents to be encrypted. This, in turn, requires the backup to be encrypted for obvious reasons.
In either case you were prompted for a password the first time you backed up after whichever of these happened. So think about what you might have entered for a password at that time. Fortunately you get an unlimited number of tries. Other threads on this subject have shown that it is always a password known to the user, so it wasn't something made up by iTunes. Also, everyone who has figured it out has found it to be a different password type, so try your Apple ID password, your computer's login password, your WiFi password, your corporate domain password, etc. And try passwords that may have been changed since your first backup. As a last resort there is a professional password cracker available, but it isn't cheap - it's targeted at the law enforcement market - from Elcomsoft. There are also some scam password crackers available that don't actually work and possibly steal your information. It's likely that a developer of one or more of these will post a response with a link (possibly hidden) to their "product". So before clicking any links you might want to install the Web of Trust plugin that keeps track of scam sites and warns you. http://www.mywot.com.

If you have already forgotten your Windows 7 password but dont have a password reset disk at hand, you can choose another way to reset the password.
Here is how to create Windows 7 password reset CD/USB:
1. This procedure needs a CD or USB flash drive. Insert your media device into another computer which can access to system as administrator.

Sent My Laptop in for Repairs and got my Password Reset but don't know what it is

So, I had to have my laptop sent in to a locale (well, about 100 miles away) repair shop, and they seemed to of reset my profile password, and I have no idea what it is. I've tried e-mailing them, but they aren't replying. Calling them would be pointless because they are Middle Eastern and can not be understood. I'd hate to have to go back all the way to the store and try to understand what the heck they are saying when there is an easier way to get this fixed up.
EDIT: This is not the BIOS password, it's the password to my profile on my laptop. It's the only profile on my laptop, but it's not the Admin account for some reason, there is no Admin account, and I have no idea why. I tried using ophcrack with no luck.
I even bought Windows Password Key, but when I try it, it starts the program, then the laptop just restarts by itself. Security measure, perhaps?

simplest..... google for "linux boot windows password reset" ... take the first link to howtogeek.com ... it has a disc image and instructions on resetting a windows password.
