I can't remember my username password, can it be reset somehow?
Help!
Put your install DVD into the optical drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive. When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Just press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Reset Password.

I recently upgraded to FF4, but also had this happen with earlier versions. If i accidentally or intentionally don't have FF remember a username & password, but later try to, it is no longer possible. Is there a way to change this?
-Try this if you haven't already.
---Hit Alt+T, then O (Tools, Options) and select the Security tab. Everything should look like this (all boxes [for best, basic security] check-marked):
<img src="https://support.mozilla.com/media/uploads/images/2011-03-25-10-21-34-61bfee.JPG">
---Click on the Exceptions button and delete the site in question or all.
---Then Add/Change Master Password to seal your decision.
---If it doesn't work, try doing so from Safe Mode. Maybe you have a password handler (which, unless an importer/exporter, isn't needed with firefox to begin with) that is intercepting Firefox's handling of the passwords. To do so, click on Help, Restart with Add-ons disabled... or go to '''Start''' | '''Run''' | and enter "'''''firefox -safe-mode'''''" (without quotes) and try there. -

HT201401 I set a restriction code but have forgotten it. Can it be reset somehow?
Is there a way to resent the passcode to restrictions? I am talking of the restrictions in settings just below passcode lock.
Thanks

Not if you have forgotten it.
To remove the Restrictions passcode you will need to either...
1) Restore the Device as New... See Sections 5 and 6 here...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
OR...
2) From a Backup created Before the Restrictions Code was set....

Direct login into a CIVS-IPC-2500: username & password required
Hi,
I'm integrating a couple of CIVS-IPC-2500 in a domotics project.
So far, I've setup the cams, I'm able to see a picture with a browser and http://<ip>/img/video.mjpeg.
I'm unable to get the picture in the domotics supervisor. I realize now that when I use the http://<ip>/img/video.mjpeg syntax on a new PC, I get a pop-up asking for username & password. On my "work" PC, this syntax works because I've already done a logon, so username & password are cached.
Is it possible to login directly into the cam without supplying any username & password ?
I've reset the cam to factory defaults and done the setup again, trying blank password, but it's not allowed
Any hint ?
ThanksHi,
Thanks for the quick reply.
Indeed, security isn't a concern, so I thought about the trick to embed the username & password.
The problem: the domotic supervisor doesn't allow me to do that.
I'm stuck -
Starbucks app requires username / password every time it is invoked.
Is there some way to tell the app to remember me?Meg,
passcode was where you suggested.
But it says that passcode is to be invoked each time you invoke the starbucks app.
I do not wish to create another step. I wish to remove one (or two).
But thank you for calling that to my attention. I did not know it was there.

I had my iTunes account synced with an old e-mail account. I no longer remeber my password for this account and no longer have access to this e-mail account. I was able to change my information to a new e-mail in iTunes and iCloud with no trouble but my iOS device keeps asking me for the password to my old iTunes account which I can't remember. It defaults the e-mail reset password to the account I can no longer access and also says the date of birth I am entering does not match the records they have... I'm so confused, and I really dont get how my birthday is wrong? When trying to delete the account all together from iOS it asks again for the password...can anyone help me? Thanks!
Is your phone still signed in with your old iTues ID for iCloud (in Settings>iCloud)?

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it. -

Can we avoid username/password screen using run_product
can we avoid username/password screen using run_product while calling a report from the form.
how we can use the same login as in form.
regardsYou can turn security off from your process.
Go under adminui under Services/Application and Services/Service Management.
Search for your process and under the security tab you can disable the security or use the 'Run As' feature to run under a specific user context.

My ISP tells me I need to change the port to send/receive mail, as the current port is going to be disabled for security reasons. But I can't remember my Mail password to add an account. How can I add an account when I don't remember my password? It's been several years.
your email password is with your ISP so they can help. but if it is saved in the email app you can just change the ports in the preferneces without a password.

Hi, I can't insert a pontuaction mark in a password (which I did until yesterday) to acess one of my accounts. I don't remember the master password, so I can't change that one. I have a MacBook Pro and 10.6.8. Could you help me, please.
What I'd do in this situation:
connect both macs to same LAN
turn them on
login to new mac
go network, find your old mac
connect using "connect as" button (up right of window)
use credentials from login you can't access - mean user name and password. If you still can't add that ~ you can copypaste password there from any text editor
You will get full access to all data of that blocked account - just copy all you need
Other way:
connect both macs to same LAN
turn them on
login to new mac
on new mac run "migration assistant" from Utilities folder
tell there that you want import account data from other mac
follow instructions of migration assistant
thus you'll import account to new mac - but probably with filewault enabled and same password, I didn't check this in such situation
Try first method first ) -
I have accidentally deleted my IMAP password from my key chain, as a result i cannot access my google email using the Mac Mail. I cannot remember what the password was for IMAP, so can anyone help to resolve this. i can access my mail by going directly to Google Mail.
Regards JKG1135The password for use in the Mail application would be the same password you use when accessing Gmail by using an internet browser. The exception to that would be if you have 2-step verification enabled for Gmail. If that is the case then you would need to use an "application-specific password." If you are using 2-step, you can revoke the previous application-specific password and get a new one as described in https://support.google.com/mail/answer/1173270?hl=en
