Lost password to user account and cannot get into Netbook
We purchased a Toshiba Netbook nb200 for our teenager for Christmas.
She was so excited to get it and was on the computer right away and set up her own user account without writing it down or allowing me time to create a disk for her.
Now the user account will not let us in. She says she knew what the password was and when we try it, it does not work. We have spent two days typing everything under the sun to see if we can get it and no luck.
2 days after Christmas and she cannot get into the computer at all.
I have tried the safe mode etc and does not work.
Any suggestions on what to do please?
Thank you.

To recover the original factory image using the utilities on your computer??s internal storage drive:
1. Make sure the computer is turned off.
2. Press and hold the 0 (zero) key on your keyboard while powering on the computer.
3. If your system offers a choice of Windows® 7 32-bit or 64-bit operating system, select one at this time. If not, skip to step 4.
4. A warning screen appears, stating that when the recovery is executed all data will be deleted and rewritten.
Click Yes to continue. Follow the instructions to do a complete restore....
HTH,

Whilst updating itunes software to latest version I get runtime error R6034 and cannot get into itunes. Is there a fix for this problem?
Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Hello.
in Solaris 10 i need auditing process create, delete, privilege escalation, set and change password and etc... from users account and group.
I set settings:
in file syslog.conf:
*.info;mail.none;cron.none;audit.notice @IP-Remote-syslog-server-SIEM
in file /etc/security/audit_control:
dir:/var/audit
flags:lo,ad,ex,cc,am,no,fc,fd
minfree:20
naflags:lo
plugin:name=audit_syslog.so;p_flags=lo,ad,ex,cc,am,no
in file /etc/security/audit_user:
root:lo,ad:no
Now I see in the logs only the fact of a connection via SSH and run processes on behalf of users. Creation. delete users, change passwords for some reason do not is logged.
Many users. For each individual write permissions in the file /etc/security/audit_user not possible, it is likely to forget any new user (or there is a possibility in this file one line to describe the audits for all accounts?)
Where is the mistake?You are most likely hitting Bug 15779000 user/role/groupadd/mod/del don't audit their use.
And the fix is only available in S11.2.

I have a website, whitening-skincare.com and am creating a website, lew-deals.com. Suddenly, yesterday, Firefox would not let me into lew-deals.com but directed me to "Default Website Page" but I could open it on another browser. I ran ipconfig/flushdns on my computer, re-booted my computer and the problem still was there, so I went to 'Show all bookmarks' and deleted History for a couple of weeks to that site, then I cleared my cache.
I then went to the whitening-skincare site and it had reverted to where it was when I first started working on it. I tried to get into the wp-admin to see what was going on but was not recognized. I now think that I need to have all the history and cache restored but have no idea how to do it unless a system restore will do it; which I will try in a while if I get no response from you.Those sites take a long time to load for me (almost a minute)
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
*Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"

I need help getting into the Export PDF program. I signed up for the annual subscription of 23.88 on the 9th of Sept. and today cannot get in unless I pay again.
Hi firemedic01,
I checked your account (using the email address you use in the forums), and I don't see any order history for you. Is it possible that you used a different email address to sign up?
Best,

My iphone is disabled and have tried the only passcode I have, to no avail. Cannot turn off the Find Iphone because I can't get into my phone.
So, you're not talking about trying to turn on the iphone using your passcode, but are talking about the phone being disabled from having used Find My iPhone to put it in lost mode - right?
Read through this article to find if your device has an activation lock.

I can't even get into Firefox to troubleshoot
I don't know if this helps, but I'm still working on this problem and took a screen shot of my Console Message errors:
What's happening here is opening the program, trying to save and it crashes. Then trying to open the program again and it crashing before it even opens. Finally opening the program a third time and trying to save it using "save as" instead of "save" (which I found one forum recommending) and it crashing again. -
It seems that the web site Dogsters/Catsters is not cooperating with me using Firefox to read and answer any of the e-mails I get from this company. I love it and wish to contact my furiends in this group. However, I can only read my e-mails and not able to respond/reply back. I can't even get into any of the sub-groups that my furs belong to. Any help would be appreciate it to combat the problem.
Thankfully the machine has come back.
I tried a couple of cmos/battery clears, with no success.
Then I took out one stick of memory, cleared the cmos and it all worked on rebooting!
I put back the memory slug, cleared cmos again and it continues to work!!
What a relief - thanks xmad. -

- click on your country's flag
- click on the Contact Support at the bottom of the left-hand column
