T400 BIOS passowrds. How many attempts before being locked out?

I have an old T400 which I am going to give to a student. I haven't used it for a couple of years and previously used the fingerprint login and so I have forgotten the BIOS passwords. I am fairly sure that I set the same password for all the power on, supervisor and hard disk passwords and am pretty sure I can guess the password if I had 10 or so attempts (I only use a set number of passwords for non sensitive sites) but I am concerned that I will be locked out after 3 attempts.
If I get locked out am I able to get into the bios and keep trying a different password?
Thanks

After 3 attempts, you need to restart.

I am locked out of IMAP for want of a password and I don't know what password is required.

I had an unauthorized attempt to login to my Gmail account which was blocked. Gmail wanted me to change my Google password, which I did. Gmail now works fine, but Thunderbird now asks for:
"Enter your password for -- [email protected]@imap.gmail.com:" to which I have
1. Put in the new password several times and gets rejected each time, and
2. I deleted the old password, as well as the new password, that Thunderbird recorded, several times (The only way to change a password saved by the password manager is to delete it, get prompted for the new password the next time it needs it, and then tell it again to save that password. You can delete the password using Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Passwords -> View Saved Passwords by selecting the password and then pressing the Remove button). I have been prompted for the new
password.
I keep getting the generated tiny reply at the bottom right of my screen" Thunderbird Alert from account [email protected]: Application specific password required: http://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer=185833 (Failure).
This question is similar to the gentleman having problems in the Uk/Carribean, but Gmail did not generate me a new password, I did.
Any new suggestions welcome!

''""Enter your password for -- [email protected]@imap.gmail.com:"" ''
on imap & smtp servers:: Change user name from [email protected] to pvedxxxxx
Try another client. Perhaps [http://www.seamonkey-project.org SeaMonkey] (requires manual configuration of accounts).
Since this is IMAP your messages are stored on the server, so the following should not cause you to loose any e-mails. Try the following as a last resort.
Delete the account from Thunderbird and then add it; starting over from scratch.

I am attempting to make my first purchase in the App store, yet it is asking me security questions I know I didn't enable and I keep getting locked out of my account despite resetting everything.

This usually wouldn't pose to be a problem, but I am a college freshman and I just redeemed my $100 giftcard to the app store. I am beyond frustrated and don't know what to do.
It is my first time making a purchase off of this Mac with this account, so it is asking me two security questions. It keeps asking me who my favorite and least favorite teachers were. I know for a fact that these are not the security questions I enabled, so I went in to change them again and logged out of everything. I logged back in and I was getting the same thing from the App store -- it was asking me questions I didn't enable. I've been locked out of my account for eight hours twice and all of my Mac's information is at home and not easily accessable to me, so I don't want to have to call and be asked for information I do not have.
What do I do? I need some crucial apps for classes that start in less than fourty-eight hours from now?
I have changed my appleID's information three times now: passwords, rescue email, and of course, my security questions. I am at my wits end and not pleased that I will possibly be losing $100!

You've been hitten by Apple's recent SNAFU. I fear you are SoL until their pending investigation fiasco is over with.

My old Apple Id can no longer be accessed due to my original e-mail being locked out. How can I switch Apple ID's without access to the one my phone continues to use?

My old hotmail account which has my old Apple ID (which is still connected to my phone) has been locked out. I have forgot the password to my original Apple ID and a recovery cannot be sent to my old account due to me not being locked out (believe someone has hacked it). I have set up a new Apple ID with a seperate e mail adress, however I cannot use the App Store because of my phone only recognizing the original e-mail I can no longer acess. Please help.

Contact the Apple account security team for your country and ask for assistance resetting the password: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security.

I've forgotten one of my answes to the "security questions" now I am locked out of my account. All I wanted to do was buy an album and now I am "locked out" how do I get Itunes to let me buy this album?

I am not a ferquent user of Apple aside to download music on to my Ipod touch and I am not overly pleased with it. All I wish to do is download and ablum and cannot remeber the answers to one of my security questions.*seeing as I rarely use it* now I am locked out of my account and all and all very annoyed. how do I become unlocked and change my security questions so that I may download this album and stop using Itunes all in all.

The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
    1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
          Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
          bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
          'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
          ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
          phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
     2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support or
          Apple ID- Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security. Ask to speak to

I have like five GB's of ghost data (data the device claims is not there but it is still taking up space) on my I pad 2 from a failed movie download attempt. How do I fix that with out resting my iPad? I have only 1GB left of storage

I have like five GB's of ghost data (data the device claims is not there but it is still taking up space) on my I pad 2 from a failed movie download attempt. How do I fix that with out resting my iPad? I have only 1GB left of storage
The movie had gotten to the point that I could watch it all the way through but it still said processing and got stuck at that point and when I turned off the wifi to try to restart it, it deleted its-self but did not free up any of the storage It was taking up
Restarting my iPad does not help
Some thing similar also happened to my old laptop when trying to download the iOS 5 update to my laptop when it came out. It kept getting disconnected and every time it would try to start over and act like what had already been downloaded was not there though it was still taking up the storage space.
And it continued repeating until it took up all of my storage space. The data file would not show up anywhere so I had to restore my laptop to the factory settings and that worked for awhile but I eventually had to get a new laptop.

Did you try to set it up as new device, as explained in this article?
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If this does not work, use iTunes to set it back to factory settings, which would also install the latest software:

If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe 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:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
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 your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
*Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead the instructions on this page:
If you forget the password and FileVault is on

I couldn't remember the answers to my security questions. And I couldn't find the option to reset the questions. Now I'm locked out of my account for 8 hrs. What can I do to fix this?

They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
