HT2623 I have upgraded my Iphone operating system using IO6. Before doing this operation I have backed up the phone and I cannot restore my phone from the backup since it simply does not accept my password.

I have upgraded my iPhone using IO6. Before doing this operation the advises to me is to back up the phone, which I did using iCloud.
When I tried to restore the back it does not access my password which I have given to restore my password.

if you cant remember the password of your back-up encryption, you can't back it up
You will have to restore as a new phone

Ever since I upgraded to IOS 7 on my iPad, it does not remember my passwords, even though I check "keep me signed on". Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing? I did not have this issue with the previous OS. Thank you.

Thank you, James, but I do have a WiFi connection on the iPad mini. The Numbers files update on my iPad third generation and iPhone just fine when connected to the same network.
Do you have any other suggestions?
Thank you!

ITunes store does not accept my Password anymore.

ITunes store does not accept my Password anymore.

I'm still having the same problem ... 6 months after your original post! I've just had to reset my pw 2 days in a row, and I've been through so many resets over the past 6 months that I'm running out of ideas for passwords that I'll have a reasonable chance of remembering. But I also always make a careful note of my important passwords, and after the 1st "password error" message, I check my list and enter the password very slowly and carefully. So, I think I'm pretty safe in claiming that neither entering the wrong password nor making a typo is the problem!
Oddly, though, I could usually cancel the password-reset process, then go right to the the iTunes Store, where my password would work fine, allowing me to open and view all my account details.
Several months ago, I spent about 45 minutes on the phone with Tech Support trying to get this fixed. He was great and we thought he'd found the problem with my account. (When I originally set up my iTunes account 6 years ago, I used a different email address than I used when I set up my new Mac last year, and that seemed to be causing some sort of conflict within my account. Hard to imagine someone might change email addresses sometime over a 6-year period, right? But apparently, the software designers didn't cover that possibility with one of their recent updates of the master system for customers' accounts -- that's the Tech Rep's surmise, not mine.)
Everything seemed to work fine for a few weeks, but then the problem started occurring again ... over and over and over ...

After hibernation, when trying to login to MacBook Air, it does not accept my password. I have to shut off and then get prompted with the following: Mac OS X wants to use the "login" keychain. I put in the password there and it works. any suggestions?

Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
Select
Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

i updated my iphone and lost all my notes there is lots of important notes, how can i get em back especially that on itunes when i sync my iphone a note appear that there is no back up on icloud,and i cannot restore?

Without a backup on iCloud, there needs to be another device using the same @icloud address that is syncing to the notes. Without that, there is no way to go back in time to create a backup before performing a major update.

Lenovo T60 issue - security center does not accept my password anymore??

Hi to all and thanks in advance for any help given.............Lenovo T60 issue
Everything was working as it should then a popup box came up when i was logged in and informed me that "I" had changed the password that is connected to my finger reader (online passwords have also been changed and do not work online using the finger reader) and could i now type my password into the popup on the screen.
When i do this it still does not work - wrong password - i have tried all of the passwords i use - so i have had to uninstall the part that deals with that, i then reinstalled it just in case it was an application issue but after re-installation it was the same as before.??
I can still use the finger reader but i do not like to rely on one secure form of login, and if it fails it could take a while to find out how to login otherwise,
thanks

I had a similar problem, but it was becuase I deleted the user account that the PC was set up with. Security Center would not work with any Administrative account. So I had to put the user back in the system with the same original name. Hope that helps.

What do I do if my new macbook air does not accept my password even if I've tried more than a few times?

Hi there,
Just bougiht a new macbook air and the start up screen is not accepting my password even though I have typed it in a few times and correctly. I have already used this mac previously for 2 days and have added microsoft office today but this is the first time I have logged in since the installation.
I don't understand why the password isn't being accepted. Could it be the installation? Or do I need to reset my macbook air?
Just a note, I'm not proficient using a Mac.This is my first macbook.
Many thanks for the help.
Tony

You can reset your password with the install cd or usb ...
Follow these steps to reset a password when there is only one administrator account on the computer, or if the original administrator account needs a password reset. "Original" administrator account refers to the one that was created immediately after installing Mac OS X. If the original administrator password is known, that administrator account may be used to reset the passwords of other administrator accounts using the steps described above. These steps require an optical drive; if your Mac does not have an optical drive and you have a Mac OS X v10.6 Install disc, see below.
Start up from a Mac OS X Install disc (one whose version is closest to the version of Mac OS X installed). Usually, you can start from the disc by putting it in your computer, restarting, and holding the C key. Or, put it in the computer and click the Install or Restore icon you see in the disc's main window (after which the computer will start from the disc without you needing to hold C). Or, you can use Startup Manager or the Startup Disk preference pane to select the Install disc.
Choose a language, click the arrow button to continue,
Mac OS X v10.6 or later: Choose Password Reset from the Utilities menu.
Mac OS X v10.5 or v10.4: Choose Reset Password from the Utilities menu.
Mac OS X v10.3: Choose Reset Password from the Installer menu.

Don't understand why Keychain does not accept my password?

If I launch Keychain and then double click on an item in the Login Keychain I then get a new window where I can select 'Show Password'. This will cause a another window to open asking me for my Password. So I enter my normal Login password and the password for that item is shown. Which is as I expect.
If I now select the System Keychain and select an item and choose 'Show Password' and enter my Login password as before it is not accepted?
I can unlock the System keychain with my Login password but I can't gain access to the two items in my system keychain using my Login password?
What am I doing wrong or is it expecting another password which I know nothing of?
How can I reset this such it accepts my Login password, I presume it will mean I lose those two items in my system keychain and will have to start again.

App store does not accept my password

This is all of my problem. On my iPhone when I want to download something from the AppStore it always tells me that the password is incorrect. I checked the Id and it seems to be correct. So I try it on my Mac and it does not work. It tells me that the apple id must be in email form (I put it in without email ending). I add the email ending and it works. Glad it works so I tried it on my phone and it didnt work. I noticed that before I entered the password it says just "example" where it should be "[email protected]" I went to see if I can change the settings it says it is in email form. But it removes the email ending when I am in the AppStore. Is there anyway to fix this??? PLEASE HELP ME??? thank you

All apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account/Apple ID that was used to download the apps. You will need to use the Apple ID that was used to download the apps to install app updates.
Apps downloaded with one Apple ID can't be transferred to another ID and accounts can't be merged.

After upgrading to 10.9 Server 3 XMPP server does not accept account with domain instead of FQDN

Hi,
I've had this issue before when upgrading to 10.8 from 10.7. The issue is that my previous working jabber ID ([email protected]) stops working and I can only login to the XMPP server using [email protected] In previuos upgrades, all I had to do to fix the issue was to re-add the domain witrh the serveradmin tool, adding it to the jabber:hostsCommaDelimitedString.
#serveradmin settings jabber:hostsCommaDelimitedString="host.domain.com,domain.com"
In 10.9 this does not work. Both host and domain entries are already in the config but I still can only login when changing my JID to be [email protected]
Any hints?
Regard,
//Staffan

Solved it myself! It seems like the #serveradmin script for modifying / adding the domain aliases to the ejabberd server does not work correctly. After looking through the different sm_.xml files created when adding a domain the script does not modify the <local><id> that the server uses to identify the JID with.
After manually modifying that id to match my domain, and restarting the ejabberd server, it works fine again!
It seems like when adding or modifying the jabber:hostsCommaDelimitedString="" the server default hostname is always inserted into the <local><id>.
