How do we reset password for SAP* and DDIC user in SAP R/3 ECC 6.0?

Hi,
How do we reset password for SAP* and DDIC user in SAP R/3 ECC 6.0?
I tried with acual method as below from client '000':
DELETE FROM USR02 CLIENT SPECIIED WHERE BNAME = 'SAP*' AND MANDT = '001'.
After this when I tried to logon '001' using SAP* with password PASS it is giving the message that Incorrect logon and password.
(Also when I checked for 'SAP*' in 001 it looks like it is not got created as I queried as below:
SELECT SINGLE * FROM USR02 CLIENT SPECIFIED WHERE BNAME = 'SAP*' AND MANDT = '001'.)
Can anybody throw some light on this? RewardS is guranteed for solutions!
-B S B

Hi again:
I forget to tell.
You must restart the system. So, that a new user with the name "sap*" gets generated with password "pass"
Hope this wil help,
Eric

how do i reset password on ipad without total reset?

You don't.
You will need to restore your iPad from the same computer that you most recently synced to.
Read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If you can't do the restore then you will need to try recovery mode.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

How do you reset Password on GD mailbox on UC540

We need to reset password used on a General Delivery mailbox which is associated with a Blast Group using CCA.
Can anyone help as we cant find any utility within CCA that will alow this. We are running version 3.2(3) of CCA

Hello,
If it is GDM it does not have a password every user which is member of the GDM ( if the GDM has been created with CCA) has option to reach it when he/she is in their own mailbox and select option 9.
If you want to define new members just add them to the group in CCA or you may use the CUE web gui usually at 10.1.10.1 if it is the default one and add members to the GSM.
If this is a personal mailbox but you use it as GDM then just change the password for that user could be done from both CCA and CME webgui.
HTH,
Alex

How can I reset password in email application

I'm helping an elderly neighbour (I'm elderly myself) with an email problem on his Mac (I don't know which one, but this is a pure S/W problem).
When he starts his system, he eventually gets a prompt for his SMPT password. Nothing works. He can signon to the BT Yahoo! webmail, using the email address/password, so we know his password is correct. We changed the password, and the webmail still worked (with the new password), but the built-in email client (eagle on stamp icon) still rejects his password, even when it prompts him to enter it.
I tried his POP/SMTP credentials in the Outlook on my Window7 system, and I can both send/receive mail. So there seems to be nothing wrong at the SMTP server.
How would I go about resetting his POP/SMTP details in the "eagle" application?
Somewhere along the line, he started seeing a "KeyChain" application appearing. This also asked him for a password, but he has no idea what to enter. He's tried every conceivable password (and I tried a null password, in case none had ever been set). I've seen the application work just once (perhaps my blank password worked?) but I've not found my way back into it.

I couldn't find any Email settings in System Preferences, but I was somewhat leery about deleting the account anyway, as I don't know if the newly created account could be associated with the old Inbox. So I archived the inbox. Then I decided to look at the existing Email account settings before deleting the account.
I found there was no outbound SMTP server defined (which may not have mattered, since it is the same as the inbound POP server, but I added the explicit IP name anyway. Nor was a password defined for the outbound server, so I added it.
At this point, all the pending outbound email got sent, and everything else had gone back to normal.
This seems an unsatisfactory outcome, as I'm sure that Fred would never have found his way into the email settings. Not in a million years. But I won't look this gift horse in the mouth.
