Firewall password not matching

When starting my Mac, I get a message saying Firewall password does not match; enter old password. I enter the password I have always used and then get to the login screen. It appears every time I log on, and started after an OS X update. It is the same password since I got the Mac, and I am not sure why it now says it does not match now.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks Sanders
I actually use some symbols along with the letters.
after the fifth attempt I clearly saw the password letters and symbols I used.
The only thing I can remember just after the update was that it was trying to acivate the radio ... it seemed to be stuck here even though it said that the update wa complere.

  • I know my Apple Id (not .mac) and password but I can't logon to ichat.  I keep getting a message of password not matched.  Do I need to create a new account for Ichat?

    I know my Apple Id (it isn't ".mac") and password but I can't log on to ichat.  I keep getting a message of password not matched.  I saw somewhere that my Apple id is the same as my ichat account.  Do I need to create a new account for Ichat?  I've already reset my Apple id password 3 times in the last 2 days.  What am I doing wrong?

    Hi,
    At one time only Email IDs from Apple (when it was just @Mac.com) were referred to as "Apple IDs"
    Other IDs such as to log in to Discussions were know as Discussion IDs
    Things like the Online Store and iTunes and Apple realising that people would prefer one ID to have access to Everything tended to move things together.
    There can be a variety of combos now

  • PI 2.0 - virtual express "setup" Fail - The passwords do not match:

    Hi all,
    Since my lab is mostly VM, I was going to upgrade my PI 1.3 to 2.0.  Cisco documentation says the inline upgrade is not supported for the small virtual appliance.  Anyhow, I deployed the new 2.0 Express virtual OVA file, allowing to to use all needed resources.
    To get to the point, when I run through the initial setup/bootstrap, I cannot get past the setting of the admin user's password.  Regardless of what I type, I always get the same message "The passwords do not match".  I can simply type the letter 'a' for a password attempt and am told they do not match.  Only when leaving it blank for the password do I see a message showing a 6 character minimum.  I can type abc123 or whatever basic combination, advanced combination, cases, symbols, numbers, etc.  No matter what I do I cannot make the passwords "match"!
    I have blown away the VM and re-deployed, validating checksum on OVA downloaded, PI-VA-2.0.0.0.294-Express.ova.
    I cannot get past this step.  Has anyone else experienced this or have any input?  I'm not finding anything in my searches.
    Thanks!

    So I was not correct in what fixed my issue.
    So, when I rebooted the host (which contains my MS 2008 DC as well), I had to access my vSphere from my local windows machine client (VM running on Oracle VBox on my MBAIR) through my VPN to my lab. 
    When typing the password Combos from my local Windows VM, I could get past this step.
    When it was time to type the ftpuser/web user (after I performed the initial setup), I again accessed through the vSphere Client loaded on the 2008 DC Virtual Machine running on the same host as the Prime 2.0 Install - same VLAN/etc.  I access this via RDP, then launch vSphere from that DC.
    From that client I was again getting the Passwords not matching.  Only when launching vSphere Client locally (from my local MB AIR VM) was I able to get the passwords to work.
    Bottom line, it seems when accessing vSphere client through an RDP session, using the console feature of vSphere client provided mixed/undesirable results.  When I access console from a vSphere client (non-RDP) it was working fine.
    Just figured I would let you know what seems to be the trigger.
    Thanks Scott!

  • My icloud account on my new iphone does not match the user ID for itunes as it is an old apple ID. There is no password for this ID so I cant change it and it wont let me change the apple ID. Any help?

    my icloud account on my new iphone does not match the user ID for itunes as it is an old apple ID. There is no password for this ID so I cant change it and it wont let me change the apple ID. Any help?

    To change to iCloud ID on your phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID then sign in with the new ID.  If you don't know the password for the old ID, and if the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • HT1933 I have old email address's I used for iTune music purchases and cannot change password on several old accounts. Now some of the music I purchased I can not download and authorize it on my device. What can I do password security does not match my bi

    I have old email address's I used for iTune music purchases and cannot change password on several old accounts. Now some of the music I purchased I can not download and authorize it on my device. What can I do password security does not match my birthdate on two of the accounts. Apple can not send me email with a password authorization on several current accounts that I have with them. How can I contact Apple with this annoying problem I can not fix.

    settings - app/iTunes store - sign out and sign back in with your new id.
    Note - if your older apps needs an update it will use your old apple id and password, as Apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase it.
    You can't merge apple id.

  • How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info

    How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info...

    If your device is signed into an old ID of yours that is an earlier version of the ID you want to sign in with, do the following:
    If you are using iMessage and FaceTime, make sure you are signed into these services with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • Crystal Report 2008 results "Password did not match error" in SQL Server Log

    Hi,
    I am trying to develop some crystal reports using Crystal Report 2008 SP4 to connect to SQL server 2008 through RDO (ODBC). My problem is that anytime Crystal Report is trying to establish a connection with SQL Server, first it tries to connect with the wrong password and results the following error message in SQL Server log:
    Login failed for user 'peyman'. Reason: Password did not match that for the login provided. [CLIENT: 192.168.2.198]
    The login name 'peyman' is the right one as I have quoted the same in setting up ODBC System DSN using "SQL Server Native Client 10". But somehow Crystal Report is taking its chance and trying to connect before prompting me for the password. After this error logged to SQL server side, I can see Crystal Report pops up the prompt to enter DSN password. After supplying password to this prompt, Crystal Report works fine and pulls the data and renders the report without having any more incorrect password error logged to SQL Server.
    The attached file shows the step I am taking to regenerate the issue. I need this to be fixed as anytime uses any of these reports and tries to render it with crystal runtime engine the same error message raises in SQL Server side and logged in the log file.
    Thanks,

    Hi Peyman,
    This is the way it should work, In CR designer when you open the report it does nothing. As soon as you hit the Refresh button then CR tries to use the connection saved with the report. It assumes what is saved with the report is a valid server and connection info. CR simply tries to verify the server is still active.
    If you don't want it to fail in CRD then before opening any report Click the File, Log on Database option and connect. Now when refreshing reports it won't log the failed.
    In the SDK it does the same thing, it assumes the Server info is the same and does try to connect to verify the Server does exist. It only takes a few milli-seconds to do this
    To stop this from happening set the log on info first then it won't log the attempt to connect, it's checking to see if Trusted is allowed.

    Notice it doesn't try to connect first if I set the log on info first using code.
    So nothing we can do to stop SQL server from logging this info. Check with the DBA, possibly they can "filter" out the application attempts to connect or change your work flow in the app.
    If you have a Preview Button to view the report then simply add your Database log on info prompt there if Connectioninfo.Trusted is not true:
    mainSecureDB = rpt.Database.Tables[tableIndex].LogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo.IntegratedSecurity;
    if mainSecureDB = false then prompt the user for log on info and set accordingly, if it is true the it should not fail when it connects.
    This is simply a matter of changing your App work flow...
    Thanks

  • Need to reset Airport Extreme password, but the instructions provided by Apple and the support community do not match with what I get in my computer.

    I have followed the directions given on the Apple support pages and the ones provided in this community, but they do not match with what I get from the Airport Utility. According to the dorections, after starting a soft restart on the Airport Extreme, I should select the network from the menu bar item (which I suppose is the symbol for wi fi). Then it says to open the Airport Utility and select the Airport Base Station, ok up to now. But the instructions say that after selecting the base station to "click Continue". In my Airport Utility, which is the latest version, there is no Contimue. When I select the Base Station I get a bubble with information on the base and an "Edit" button. By clicking on this button, I am able to get a new window with info on the Base, inlcuding password, but I never get the window which says that the device has been reset. I need help, as I have bought a second Apple computer and need the password to set the wifi preferences, and I forgot the password for the Airport Extreme.

    You're doing everything right. The problem is that the Apple Knowledge Base article is outdated and the screenshots do not correspond to the new version of AirPort Utility.
    If all you need to do is find the password for the Extreme, you can do that by following this procedure. Use the Mac that is already configured to connect to your Extreme's network.
    You can retrieve your existing wireless network password from a Mac you normally use on that network. Your wireless network password is stored in your Mac's Keychain.
    You must first have an Administrator account on a Mac that you use with that AirPort Base Station, one that is used to connect to your AirPort network.
    On that Mac, open the Utilities folder. Find Keychain Access and launch it.
    In the search field at the upper right, type Airport. All the Keychain entries for your base station will appear there, as well as other entries.
    Look at the column "Kind". The entry you want to select will be labeled "AirPort network password" (not "AirPort base station password" or anything else).
    If you are trying to recover the AirPort Base Station password then the entry you want to select will be labeled "AirPort base station password" not "AirPort network password".
    Double-click that, and in the window that appears check the box for "Show password".
    You will get the following window:
    In the Password field type your Mac's Administrator password - the same one you used to log in to that Mac.
    Then, click Allow, and your wireless network password will appear in the "Show password" field:
    Make note of it.
    Close the window, then quit Keychain Access.

  • Directory Utility keeps telling me the name and password do not match

    Installed Leopard Server on my Mini a few days ago, and I enabled Open Directory server.
    Added the server in my home network with directory utility on my laptop, and it works perfect both when I'm on the local network, and when I'm elsewhere.
    Tried doing the same at my Leopard iMac at work today. Finds the server just fine, but when trying to configure my machine locally I get an error message during Authentication that simply says "The name and password you entered for the user account on the server do not match".
    Now. I KNOW the username and password is correct. And I have the same username and password on this machine (both the long name, and the short one).
    So what am I doing wrong here?

    Christian,
    I've experienced similar issue recently. The most likely solution will be to delete the user and recreate it using same uid and username. I'm going to look for other solutions prior to that.

  • Username and password do not match

    I can no longer authenticate.  I get "Username and password do not match".
    Is there a file I can edit to reset the username and password?
    Thanks in advance,

    We should take a look at the log files to see what's really going on but if you haven't done anything with the installation yet then "reinstalling" is very easy.
    In the directory where you launched the jar file, you should find a directory named "crx-quickstart". Simply rename this directory to "crx-quickstart.old" and restart the jar file. Your new environment will be ready in a couple of minutes.  Keep the old directory and look into the [your directory]\crx-quickstart\logs directory for details on your original problem.

  • ERROR: Your password and confirmation password do not match. [******] - has been ignored.

    In IE8m 7, 6, this error occurs. Instead of allowing the registrant to correct the mis-matched password, BC submits the form and places this in the submission report: ERROR: Your password and confirmation password do not match. [******] - has been ignored.
    The user doesn't get logged in (obviously), however BC creates a record for this user, but without a password.
    Has anyone else received this error?
    The process happens like this, user completes form, which includes password|confirm password in which the confirm password is mistyped, when "submit" is pressed, the modal window appears indicating a mismatched password. The user clicks "okay" and then the page redirects to the submission page (or to a login screen if the form is set to redirect to a specific page).
    This occured during the test phase and has been replicated!

    Can you please insert that form onto a blank page with no template around it and test it? There seems to be a problem in javascript validation.
    It's this line:
    if(why != ""){alert(why);return false;}
    So, when you click submit, the JS pops the alert if "why" varaible is not an empty string and then returns false, which means the form should not get submitted. However, on your form the browser goes on to this line and submits the form:
    if(submitcount50254 == 0){submitcount50254++;theForm.submit();return false;}
    I can't exactly pinpoint the problem, but it's in that code or some code interfering with that code.

  • Oops! The email or password did not match our records. Please try again.

    On Sunday March 30, 2014 I was trying to purchase a new computer from the Best Buy website. I added the computer to my cart and clicked checkout. I was asked to log into my best buy account and after clicking sign it I was informed that I need to update my password. I created a new password and it took me back to MyBestBuy page. I clicked on the shopping cart again and clicked checkout. It again asked me to log in to my account. This time I was given an error: Oops! The email or password did not match our records. Please try again.  I changed my password two more times after that and still had the same problem.
    I finally called Best Buy and the lady I talked with sent me a reset password request which did not work. She informed her supervisor and was told there are issues with the website and ordering online.  She tried to order the items in my cart and could not proceed as well.
    I was then transfer to the Sales department where Jacqueline assisted me in getting my order purchased. She also sent me a request to reset my password but it is still having the same problem. I change the password and the next time I log it I get the following error: Oops! The email or password did not match our records. Please try again.
    The worst part about this whole experience was on Wednesday 04-02 I received an email from Best Buy that stated Please call us, there is a problem with you order. I called the 1800 number listed on the email and spoke with an associate who informed me the reason for the email was I did not have sufficient fund for the purchase that I made today. The problem: I did not make any purchase on 04-02. The associate asked if I would like to be transfer to the fraud department and I said yes. The woman that I spoke with was very polite and we cancelled my account and I have a new card on the way.  (I forgot to mention that I used by Best Buy Credit Card)
    I think that there is a serious issue with your website and because of the problem my credit card information was stolen.
    I have been a loyal best buy shopper buying all of my electronic from TV's, cellphones, computers, movies, etc. After this experience I have lost my confidence in your website and it ability to keep my information safe.
    P.S. I have already tried:

    Hello KC-2537,
    Welcome to the forum!
    I can’t begin to imagine how terrifying it’d be to discover an unrecognized purchase on your account, and I’m sorry for any frustration this caused. We take your privacy very seriously which is why you were asked to create a new password when you attempted to log into your account to purchase the computer you wanted. Recently, we’ve implemented a new and stronger security measure that asks our customers to choose more intricate passwords for their www.BestBuy.com accounts. It sounds like your previous password didn’t meet these new requirements and as we wanted to make sure your information is as safe as possible, we asked you to reset it. However, it certainly wasn’t our intention to lock you out of your own account.
    After looking through your account using the email address attached the forum, I’m glad to see that the computer Jacqueline assisted you with ordering was delivered to your local store earlier this week. However, I’m worried about your account if it is still locked. As I want to make sure you are able to access this, I’ve sent you an email to reset your password that you should receive shortly. These links are only valid for a short period of time, so let me know if you’re unable to access the message right away.

  • How do i retrieve my icloud mail ID password. It is not matching my current Apple ID password

    How do i retrieve my icloud mail ID password. It is not matching my current Apple ID password

    See the quote below from http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/
    An Apple ID is the login you use for just about everything you do with Apple, including using iCloud to store your content, downloading apps from the App Store, and buying songs, movies, and TV shows from the iTunes Store.
    If you are using a second Apple ID for iCloud you would recover the password in the same way: If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

  • Install maverik on my MacBook Pro, I had no problem. Two days later I was shut down suddenly and reboot with a closed padlock and asking me for a password that does not match any of mine. What I can do?

    Try booting to the Recovery drive, running Disk Utility and Repair disk and Repair Permissions.
    1. Reboot and immediately hold down command and R (two keys).
    2. When you see the screen shown on this page, select Disk Utility and continue.
    3. When DU is running, select the hard drove on the left, First Aid and Repair Disk.
    4. After Repair Disk, click Repair Permissions.
    Quit DU and restart.
