Insert the install disk that came with your MacBook. Reboot holding the C Key down. Once it boots from the install disk continue until you get to a window the has the menu bar across the top. Look under Utilities and find the *Reset Password* item. Change it and you should be able to log in again once you reboot your system.

Lost administrator login and password.

We can't download new software etc. because we lost our administrator login and password. How do we reset it? Will we lose all of our files?

I have lost saved logins and passwords and some saved cookie info after each Firefox update

I have lost various saved logins passwords and saved information in websites after Firefox updates

You may loose a few things, but you are doing great.
These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.
These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox

In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild
your saved files individually into installable .xpi files.
It will also make backup of files that you choose.

Starts up like the first time you buy a new Mac, but after filling in all that info again, you should have access to the computer and the other Users & files will still be there... though I was just thinking, this new User probably shouldn't be the same name as an existing one.
If that doesn't work for you (and some users have reported it has not worked for them), try Niel's procedure Making the Setup Assistant reappear.

FTP login and password are not saved on some sites

On some of my sites the FTP login and password are not saved
(even though the "saved" box is checked). Dreamweaver 8.0 on XP
SP2. I can export the site information and then import the same
file exported and there still will be no login or password placed
in the login or password window. I opened the exported .ste files
in notepad and found the login correct and the password incorrect.
I uninstalled Dreamveaver and reinstalled still same
problem.

Ok, I just spent about 3 hours on this. Here's the latest
that I've found. I had looked at the knowledgebase and my registry
matched what was suggested. As this has been an ongoing issue for
me, I thought it was still an issue. Apparently 8.02 did have some
improvements.
I can only guess that many of the 36 sites I have in the Site
Manager lost info before the .02 update.. or I hope so.
I did however discover that there is still what could be
considered a minor bug. I went in to Manage Sites and selected edit
for all of my sites, fixing the ones that had lost their user/pass
info. I'm not positive, but I think only the last edited site kept
it's data.
I discovered after many checks on all the sites, over and
over and over, that it appears that they are now holding the data,
but, if I add the user/pass, I must not only click the OK button to
close that particular site, but I must also click the 'Done' button
before only that one will be saved.
So, I thought I was fixing logins when in fact I was only
fixing one at a time.. Completely closing 'Manage Site' seemed to
hold one new set of login data each time. Seems that it shouldn't
be this way.
But I must say, I am rejoicing at the moment, as I actually
have all my sites set up with FTP info and I am now looking forward
to hopefully adding more and maybe they'll actually be available
for the next editing session.

How do I find settings for remembered login and passwords?

When I attempt to login to websites I am thrown into a loop which fills login and password, then puts the same information into other required dialogue boxes. I want to delete the login from the remembered list.

Hi,
This will vary depending on the browser you're using - for example to stop this behaviour in Internet Explorer 9, see the following.
Open windows Control Panel, open Internet Options, select the Content tab and under the sub-heading 'AutoComplete', click the Settings button.
To delete the current saved passwords etc, click 'Delete AutoComplete history...' and in the following window make sure both the boxes next to Passwords and Form data are ticked, then click Delete button.
To stop the behaviour entirely, remove the tick from the box next to 'User names and passwords on forms', then click Ok. Click Apply and Ok in the previous window.
Regards,
DP-K

DW CS4 - OS X 10.5.7 - Login and Passwords not being remembered

Initially i had all my site definitions deleted from DW CS4 and Contribute CS4 for no apparent reason (no crash or anything of note). Since then I cannot get my site login and password to remain after the application restarts.
I did my inital research and found posts with similar problems but nothing seems to have worked for me.
I have cleared all my old keychains from previous version (to no avail)
I have also resorted to removing CS4 completely and running the CS4 Cleanup Utility before re-installing as well, but the problem still exists.
This is becoming a real problem as I have a lot of site definitions.
Any ideas, suggestions.

Somehow firefox now opens with my windows mail. Each time I enter my password it asks if I want to save it so I don't have to retype my login and password each time. I hit yes and when I leave firefox it doesn't keep my password. I would like to either

I recently went to open my windows live mail,which normally opens because it has my login and password saved. Now it opens in firefox and I have to retype my login and password everytime I open my mail. I would like when I open my mail not to have to retype my login and password as this is why I have it set up in the original windows mail anyway. So I have attempted to live with this problem by adjusting the options to save my password and when I close out of firefox and try to reopen it later in the day I have to retype my login and password again.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== about a month ago

Do i need a separate appleID and password for itunes store, icloud and app store apart from my admin login and password?

after having my mbp upgraded with new m.lion by apple tech service i noticed that applications like iphoto, garageband and imovie are gone
researched online and was told that i had to acess the `purchase` via AppStore where it asks me to log in with Apple ID and password
i used the usual admin login and password and didnt work, also on itunes and icloud the similar case
do i need to register with a separate appleID and password for itunes store, icloud and app store apart from my admin login and password?

Just use the same Apple ID and password that you used to access this forum - that's your Apple ID.
The user name and password on your computer has nothing to do with your Apple ID.
Good luck,

Printer is asking for an user acces code instead of windows login and password?

I have been seeing the HP printers asking(LaserJet M4555 MFP, LaserJet 500 color MFP M575 etc) for user access code instead of windows login and password.
One thing i have noticed is that when this happens there is a slight change in the EWS page configuration at security -> access control.The device administrator tabe is unchecked as you can see below ehen this happens
Have tried cold resetting the printer and restore facory settings but this does not works and some thimes it does works for a while but the issue is returing back.
We do not need this access code promt instead we need the usual windows login and password that used be there originally.
alsothis is how the settings look like after a cold reset somtimes when it does not asks for user access code , the problem is cold rese does lways works and it reverts back ois original settings

How to hide login and password transported in interface ?

Hi !
        In the current project that I´m working, the customer is developing a website in .Net and intend to use XI to communication between website and ECC 6.0. One of their needs is to create an interface to call a RFC in ECC 6.0 to validate login+password provided in the website(they created a Z table to persist login data, and a RFC to receive login and password and check in this table).
        My problem is, to solve this situation, I would use a simple sincronous interface but, the login+password information will be logged into monitoring screens of XI, and it´s not desireble, so I´m finding a way to hide this information.
        Initially, I was thinking to make 2 adapter modules, 1 to be used joined to the Sender SOAP Channel that will be used to the website call, that could get the data send by the website and encrypt it, to be sent to the XI pipeline encripted(only the fields login and password), and the 2nd to be used joined to the RFC Receiver channel, to decrypt login and password to be sent to the RFC call. Another alternative that I found was to use the MessageTransformBean and XLST mapping + java, but I´m looking for another alternatives.
        Somebody knows if there are some way to achieve this(hide some information in a message being processed by XI)?
        In time, I can´t to disable the logging of syncronous interfaces, because it´s customer requirement.
        Any help is welcome !
        Thank you in advance, and best regards,
        Wilson

Hi !
        I have solved the problem.
        I used to develop 2 adapter modules, one to intercept the message arriving to SOAP Sender communication channel, encrypt the content of parametrized fields(in the module tab of the comm. channel) and deliver the updated message to the processing chain of the comm. channel.
        This message is so processed correctly by the XI pipeline, and delivered to the RFC Receiver Comm. Channel. I developed another adapter module to receive the data sent to the receiver RFC Comm. Channel, decrypt the contents of parametrized fields(like the another module, parametrized in the module tab), and deliver the updated message to the processing chain of the comm. channel.
        After some tests, I verified that the message doesn´t remain logged unencrypted into XI(I checked Message Monitoring for Adapter Engine at Runtime Workbench, and the SXI_MONITOR trn).
        Like mentioned by Jaishankar, the SOAP Adapter initially didn´t accepted the module adapter that I wrote following the stardards existing in several documents about adapter modules here in SDN, but after some research, and debbuging sections of the adapter module, I achieved to develop the correct code to work.
        Thank you for your attention, and best regards,
