Lowercase Password?

I am having trouble connecting to my wireless account at home. I know the password, but am unable to use lowercase letters. Is there a way to get lowercase letters for passwords? I think this is my trouble. Thanks.

The letters on the keyboard are ALWAYS shown as upper case letters.
When the shift button is highlighted (solid white upper facing arrow), text is typed in upper case and when not highlighted, text is typed in lowercase.

Confused of configuring UME-Only lowercase password can be used for SAPJSF

Dear all,
I'm going to configure UME in portal based on NW7.0 sp13.
The configuration file "dataSourceConfiguration_abap.xml" is used, this portal system is connecting to an ABAP ECC6 system.
Everything is ok but the password of SAPJSF in ECC6.
When I set the password all in lower case, the UME can be started successfully;
When I set ONE character with upper case, the UME will fail to start.
In developer trace file, it noticed me that the logon username/password is incorrect..
It seems like the problem of the password compatibility, but it doesn't make any sense that even if I set all character in upper case in Portal configtool, still no use..
I already set parameter in ECC6:
login/password_downwards_compatibility=3.
Could anyone help me on this issue please?
Thanks
Best Regards

"ORA-1017: invalid username/password; logon denied"

I am running Oracle Database 11g R1.
Oracle.DataAcess.dll 10.2
My code as below:
string oradb = "Data Source=orcldemo;User ID=HR;Password=hr;";
OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection(oradb);
conn.Open();
I keep on getting error:
"ORA-1017: invalid username/password; logon denied"
But if I tried to access from the same host using Oracle SQL Developer ver 1.2 and using the same username and password then I have no problem at all.
Any help? Thanks

This is what I found on Metalink
Applies to:
Oracle Data Provider for .NET - Version: 9.2.0.8.0 to 10.2.0.3.0
Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
Symptoms
You are trying to connect to 11g database using 10g ODP.NET (or lower version) and you receive
ORA-1017 - invalid username /password
While using 11g ODP.NET or 10g sqlplus ,this problem does not occur.
Cause
Whenever we send the passwords using 10g ODP.NET ,it converts them into all upper cases.
Prior to 11g database , the passwords were case-insensitive.
So sending all-capital password would not cause problem there.
However, from 11g onwards , passwords are case sensitive.
Hence when ODP.NET sends all-capital password to a 11g database , password validation fails and results in the ORA-1017 error.
This issue is reported in an internal bug .The bug number is not revealed for confidentiality policy reasons. The backport request has been created for 10.2 and 10.1 but the patch was not available at the time of writing this note.
Solution
There are several solutions for this issue:
Configure the database to not support case-sensitivity in passwords.
Create all-capital passwords
Pass a lowercase password by wrapping the password field in quotes.
e.g.
("Data Source=ORCL;User ID=scott;Password = \"tiger\"");
The bug is also fixed in the 10.2.0.4.0 Oracle Database Patch 6810189.

ECC 6.0 upgrade - password reset required

My client upgraded from 4.6c to ECC 6.0 this past weekend. On Monday morning, we found that a number of users could not log in to ECC 6.0 with their password from 4.6c. This was the case for only about 10-15% of users who logged in. A password reset was required for these users. We haven't been able to determine what caused this issue. Has anyone else had a similar experience with an upgrade to ECC 6.0?
Our first instinct was that it was an issue with the case-sensitivity of passwords. However, we've polled a number of users and it appears that the issue was occuring with users who had all-lowercase passwords, all-uppercase passwords and mixed-case passwords. Any insight you can provide would be appreciated.

Hi Daniel,
Sounds to me like you need to make the password downward compatible...
Check that parameter login/password_downwards_compatibility and make sure is downward compatible. I think the correct value is 1

Essbase passwords

Hi,
One of our trainers as inadvertently set up Essbase with different passwords through the install.
Now the Essbase cluster has one password and all of the sample databases have another password.
Is there an easy way, short of full uninstall and reinstall, to synchronise all the passwords.
n.b. We have both passwords currently, the database level password is not lost.
thanks for your input,
Robert.

Sorry which version is this, was Essbase was deployed in Standalone mode.
When you migrate to shared services you have the following options with passwords
Password creation settings—For native Shared Services users, specify how the passwords should be created for the Shared Services users when they are migrated:
    Auto-generated—Automatically generates new passwords for users being migrated to Shared Services. The passwords are recorded in the text file specified in the text box. You must specify the extension for the file as .txt. You can also browse to the location of an existing password file to append new passwords to it.
    Use native user name as password—Assigns the native user name as the password for each user being migrated to Shared Services. During migration, the user name is converted to an all lowercase password. For example, a native user named "Mark" will have "mark" as their password after migration.
    Password and Confirm password—Specifies and confirm, respectively, a new password for all users created in Shared Services. You must specify the same password for all users being migrated.Cheers

Startrfc password

Hi,
We hare calling to a Remote Function with startrfc but when we use an User and a Password this is not running. But when we use another user it works¡¡¡¡ The user that is not running is a copy from the user that is running. The password is correctly. We have try with uppercase password, lowercase password, etc....
The difference is that we have migrated from 46C to 700 with Unicode. We does not have updated rfc libreries.
CALL E:SAPFrontEndSAPgui
fcsdk instartrfc.exe -3 -d E01 -u USER -p PASSWORD -c 100 -l S -t -h IP -s 00 -F EDI_DATA_INCOMING -E PATHNAME=/usr/sap/E01/DVEBMGS00/work/orders.in -E PORT=ZPORT

> The user that is not running is a copy from the user that is running.
1) The UID is hardcoded somewhere..
2) The copied user does not have the same address data, PIDs, variant protections, user assigned personalization keys, etc as the original.
3) If you are using external RFC servers, then the UID might be in the reginfo.dat ACL (for the call back) or the secinfo.dat (for starting the server program).
Unlikely but probable, so I place 0.04 cents on the second aspect of option 3...
Cheers,
Julius

ECC6 - Domain XUBCODE Upper/Lower case

Hi,
In ECC6, I have defined a custom FM as below. The parameter I_PASSWORD references to a dictionary field that is case sensitive (domain XUBCODE). When I pass a lowercase password to the FM, it is always converted to uppercase. It should be whatever case the password is. Do you have the same problem and please let me know how to correct it.
Thanks and Best regards,

What encryption are you using on the router?
If WEP you have to set the router to use the first key and you have to enter the first key as the password on the iPod. See:

How to Enhance Security of Windows and Recover Lost/Forgotten Password

You maybe always get in some troubles with your PC. Lost Windows password? Forgot Windows password? Your PC was hacked? Therefore, it is a basic step for every Windows users to enhance the security of Windows password. In the networks, it is found that a number of user’s passwords are easy to guess. Only the smallest groups are the most security conscious and select passwords that are mixed lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers and punctuation to create cryptic passwords. Adopting strong password is one of the most effective ways to ensure system security. Here are several methods for you to enhance the security of your passwords in Windows 7/2000/XP/Vista and so on. You’d better remember the methods below unless you want to reset Windows password from time to time.
1. Is random password a great password?
A common myth is that totally random passwords like Ht3&e#L%5d@$B are the best passwords. This is not true. While they may be strong passwords, they are usually difficult to remember, slow to type, and sometimes vulnerable to attacks against the password generating algorithm. It is easy to create passwords that are strong but much easier to remember by using a few simple techniques. For example, consider the password “Luck-73@Better?”. This password utilizes uppercase and lowercase letters, two numbers, and three symbols. The password is 15 characters long and can be memorized with very little effort. Moreover, this password can be typed very fast. The portion“Luck” and “Better” alternate between left and right-handed keys on the keyboard, improving speed, decreasing typos, and decreasing the chances of someone being able to discover your password by watching you.
2. Create the long Windows password
Although a password may eventually be discovered through some means, it is possible to create a password that cannot be cracked in any reasonable time. If a password is long enough, it will take so long or require so much processing power to crack it. That is essentially the same as being unbreakable (at least for most hackers).
3. Create the Windows password constantly?
This may be good advice for some high-risk passwords, but it is not the best policy for every user. It is frustrating for a user to have to constantly think of and remember new passwords every 30 days. It may be better to focus on stronger passwords and better user awareness rather than limiting password age. A more realistic time for the common user may be 90-120 days.
4. Write down Windows password in a proper place
Sometimes it is necessary for some users losing and forgetting complex passwords easily to write down them somewhere proper. However, it is important to educate users on how to write down passwords properly. Obviously, a sticky note on the monitor is not a good idea, but storing passwords in a safe or even a locked cabinet may be sufficient.
5. 14 characters is the optimal password length
Each character that you add to your password increases the protection. Your passwords should be 8 or more characters in length; 14 characters or longer is the Optimal Password Length. Many systems also support use of the space bar in passwords, so you can create a phrase made of many words. It is not easier to forget and lose, as well as longer than a simple password, and harder to guess.
6. Try not to use the same Windows password for all accounts
Some users always make the same passwords for every account to make it easy to remember. In that case, when any one of them lost, your other information protected by that password will be in danger as well. It is serious to use different passwords for different systems and accounts.
7. Do not use some common words that other users maybe guess
Most of users prefer to use some common words to remember easily, for example, login name, birth date, driver's license, passport number, pets’ name and other words contained their personal information someone knows. In that case, your Windows system will not be safe anymore. Moreover, do remember not to use some words spelled backwards, abbreviations, sequences or repeated characters and adjacent letters, such as, asdfgh, 123456, 888888, abcdef and so on.
You can smoothly use your Windows now because the strong and powerful Windows password is created successfully, Certainly, I believe that many users lost Windows password and forgot Windows password, then you need have to reset Windows password or recover Windows password. It is a big problem for plenty of Windows users that how to reset Windows password. Many users probably do not know how to recover Windows password and they are puzzled by resetting windows password, for instance, reset Windows 7 password, recover password Windows XP, remove Windows Vista password and other operating systems after they create the password with complex letters, numbers and symbols. However, it is unnecessary to worry and it is said that things will eventually sort themselves out. There are many ways to reset forgotten Windows password, including use windows password reset disk and windows password reset software, like Super Windows Password Reset, a professional windows password reset software which could enable you to logon to Windows smoothly without reinstalling system. You can know more by reference to http://www.passwordreset.biz/. Such was the case with using these kinds of tools.
These are all my suggestion about methods to enhance the security of Windows password. To create password for your Windows account is not a thing you should do, but a thing you must do by following my advices. It is the important line of defense against hackers. If your Windows password is indeed attacked finally or nevertheless you lost Windows password, you can try out windows password reset tool I mentioned above. The advantage is that there is no fear of leaking your password to outsiders. Certainly, the only better method is still creating the strong password, do remember it and then change one constantly.

My Apple ID password keeps expiring

What has happened is that on June 4, 2012, I turned on my iPhone 4 ot see that it was asking for my Apple ID password. The password I had had for a while now was no longer working. Hadn't changed it, and I hadn't forgotten it - the password I was using had just suddenly stopped.
I went to iforgot.apple.com and reset it. Saw that the password requirements had been updated a bit to insist that I include an uppercase letter in addition to lowercase letters. Figured that that was why my password mysteriously stopped working.
Today the same thing happened, only this time I turned on my iPad to see that Messenger was asking for my Apple ID password. I entered it in once, and it didn't work...entered it in a second time and the password prompt disappeared, so I figured that it accepted the password. Same thing happened on my iPhone.
Then I get to my computer and I see that I cannot log in to icloud.com with the new password I had created on June 4. Once again, I had to change the stupid password.
Why is this happening (short of someone hacking into my account)? Is the stupid password going to expire on Wednesday, because I am traveling that day and I'd really rather not have to deal with an expired password.

fromsouth -
I believe that you have kept the same password for a very long time. This is the case for my wife on her Apple ID account as well. This problem is affecting only a subset of user accounts.
Perhaps you are right that the server is reacting to some suspicious activity. If that is the case, it sure would be nice if Apple gave the user a hint as to what activity triggered it. If Apple is unable to solve this for me, I will be keeping track of precisely when the password expirations occur to see if the same amount of time elaspes between each occurance.
For what it is worth, your theory about what is causing the password resets directly contradicts what thehello wrote previously in this thread:
thehello wrote:
I have the answer! I called Apple tech support and they know why this is happening!!!
At some point in the past, when you went to appleid.apple.com and logged in, under the "Password and Security" option, there was a setting that allowed you to manage how often your password would expire, ie. every 1, 3, 6, 12 months... you get the idea. Well, in the recent past Apple made some changes and security enhancements to better protect peoples' private information, and guess what? They have since removed this option. One of the Senior Technical Advisors who knew exactly what I was talking about (and had intentionally turned this setting on for themselves) went into their own account, but alas, it the option was not there.
Perhaps the Advisor he talked to was incorrect.

Error while trying to change the user password on OSX Lion

Hello,
I am trying to change the user password ( no admin user ) using the webinterface. I enabled the functionality in webservices on the server.
I can loginto the three line password changing form. After I enter the old and two times the new password, I get the information
"Your request could not be completed. The password server may be unavailable."
How can I fix this problem? I also tried https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2485167?start=0&tstart=0.
Thanks in advance for help.

I currently have this error on my 10.6.8 ML server when trying to change password.
In my situation, the message definitely comes from the password policies. As soon as I use a new password that respects minimum complexity (e.g. 8 characters min, 1 lowercase letter, 1 uppercase letter, 1 number), the password changes flawlessly.
It would be nice to change this horrible message to something more meaningful... If someone has any ideas on how to do this, thanks for sharing!

Ipod Touch Recognizes WIFI but not password

I have a new 32gb Ipod Touch. At home I am trying to connect to my wifi. It recognizes my network. I try to connect to the network, type in the password, and it says "incorrect wifi password" Although I know it is the correct one, and I tried multiple times just in case I typed something wrong (the caps and lowercase are used on the correct letters as well). Anyway, any ideas or solutions help. Thanks.

What make/model router do you have?
What security type are you using (WEP, WPA, WPA2)?
If you are using 64 or 128 bit WEP the password must be exactly 5 or 13 characters long or it may be hashed to a different binary value by different operating systems. Also a WEP key must be key 1 to work with the iPad.
If you are using WEP you should consider dropping it and moving to WPA2. WEP has been deprecated by the WiFi Alliance since 2004 as insecure.
