Desktop Reset Question

Just a simple question.  My computer has recently gone insane where it constantly resets itself.  Just to rule out a hardware problem, I'm going to reset the computer.  If I have data saved to a second hardrive that was already in  the computer when it was purchased, and that hard drive had nothing on it when computer came from factory, would a system reset wipe that hdd as well as the c: drive?

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

  • Encryption algrothim used for Password reset question and answer

    We are trying to write a custom interface to the Password reset service.
    The interface is supposed to allow the user to enter a question and answer, then using SAM SDK write the value to the iplanet-am-user-password-reset-question-answer.
    The problem is SAM saves the values encrypted, so do any one know the encryption algorithm used and what is key or they are specified.
    Thnaks

    Only you and Apple know your secret question.  See if changing the password via email will allow access to your account.. Then you can chnag yur secret question. See:

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    Click here for information. If you can't reset them through the method described in that article or by sending yourself a rescue email(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section.
    It isn't possible to create a rescue email address without correctly answering two of the questions.

    At the end of this install try connecting the Blackberry to the PC without Desktop manager running.
    See if the device comes up correctly. If not run Windows update with the Blackberry plugged in. The 
    device should be recognized and the device drivers added.

  • Discoverer Desktop Graphing Questions

    I have several questions about the graphing tool in Discoverer Desktop:
    1. I'm bringing in a customer id field which I convert with a to_char in the query from a numeric field. Most of them are 5-digit, but some are 4. I notice in the x-axis the customer id's appear only for the 5 digit id's, and for the 4-digit ones the identifier appears. i.e. if the 5th record has an id of 1508, instead of displaying 1508 it displays 5. Does anyone know how to correct this?
    2. In the y-axis values, is it possible to display more than 5 decimal places? (We're dealing with very small percentages). When I try to enter 6 or higher as the decimal value in Options, it says invalid number.
    3. When I open an existing workbook, it readjusts the y-axis scale to a max of 1, when I've set it to .0001. How I can I make this retain my scale values?
    4. Is it possible to display the y-values in the graph area itself next to the plot points?
    Thanks for any help!!!!

    Hi paul,
    Its a good idea to upgrade from 4i to 10g 4i is no more used by many and their are some issues or bugs with it.The latest version is 11g which has been released 1 week back.If not go with 10g version available.
    1) Do all reports have to be stored on the database to allow them to be accessed by Plus or Viewer? Can only the 10G client version open files from a local hardrive or shared network drive?Yes they have to stored in the database so any ened user can access them from plus or viewer.
    Can only one report be open at any given time with Plus or Viewer? In client it is possible to have 2 reports open at the same time to facilitate easier comparisons.Yes,if the reports are registered as different reports and if the end user has access to both the reports thn he can open and compare it OR if both reports are in same workbook as different sheets than its easy to view or compare.
    NULL values are still showing the word "NULL" even though in Tools Options we have set it to show blank, existing reports are still using the NULL value.It should show blank,might be some problem.In discoverer 10g i think you will not find this issues.
    Hope this helps you.
    Best Wishes,
    kranthi.

  • Retake Quiz button not resetting questions

    Hi all
    I have a quiz with 7 questions, all single-answer questions.
    When the quiz results are displayed, the Retake Quiz button is displayed if they have failed the quiz.
    Upon clicking Retake Quiz, it takes me back to the start of the quiz, however, the previous answers given have not been reset and the question is greyed out.
    I've been reading various posts on here, indicating that similar things are happening, however I couldn't find the reason with the quiz settings that I have:
    Quiz is set to Answer All.
    Quiz is set to Allow Backward Movement.
    Quiz is set to allow 100 attempts on the quiz.
    Quiz is set to display Retake Button.
    Each quiz question is set to allow 1 attempt.
    I thought that by increasing the number of attempts allowed on each question that this would solve it, but this just allows me to keep trying on each question until I hit the right answer, and does not seem to solve the problem.
    I'm really not sure as to why, when using the Retake Quiz button, it is not resetting the quiz.
    Any help greatly appreciated!
    regards
    Loraine

    Hi again
    I have now changed the settings in the quiz as per Lilybiri's suggestion. I now have the following quiz settings in place:
    Quiz is set to Required - the user must take the quiz to continue.
    Quiz is set to Allow Backward Movement.
    Quiz is set to allow 100 attempts on the quiz.
    Quiz is set to display Retake Button.
    Each quiz question is set to allow 1 attempt.
    Captivate 4  - AS 2.
    After answering all the quiz questions, and failing, and clicking Retake Quiz button, some of the answers remain greyed out. It will not let you click Reset and will then automatically move on to the next question slide.
    There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it... sometimes the correct answer remains greyed out, and sometimes an incorrect answer remains greyed out. Sometimes when I click Retake Quiz none of the answers are greyed out, but then if i keep failing the quiz, the answers begin to appear greyed out. I have double-checked that i've set the number of attempts on the quiz to 100.
    I have also tried using the Back navigation button within a quiz, to go back and change my answer, but the answers remain greyed out, and pressing Reset makes no difference.
    It seems the only way I've managed to get a 'clean' retake at the quiz, is to exit from the e-learning, then go back in to it. But this is not going to be an acceptable method, when my company want to give learners the option to retake the quiz only if they fail, and not redo the whole package to get to the quiz at the end.

  • Desktop Manager Question

    Hello, i am using a 8700g currently which is running off of v4.1.0.346 (platform 2.0.0.143), with T-Mobile.
    I purchased a new Bold online with AT&T due to bad reception at my home and i really liked the Bold.
    My question is this: Which version of desktop manager do i download to transfer my 275 contacts to new phone? The newest one 4.7?
    If i have left something out please ask for it. I was told this was the smoothest way to perform this task.

    Problem solved. i went into ATT store and they transfered all contacts over in three minutes. i did not have any luck with pocketmac and wes that due to the sim card not being activated yet? that is all i can think of as to why it was working on the 8700 side and not on the Bold side. if you have "the" answer i would like to hear it, if not no reply is necessary.
    thank you
