I just purchased a new Linksys E2500 router. It will connect to all my other devices, but does not recognize the password when sent from the PowerBook G4.

I just purchased a new Linksys E2500 router. It will connect to all my other devices, but does not recognize the password when sent from the PowerBook G4. When I try it responds that the password is invalid. I have connected my MacBook Pro, iPad and iPod Touch with the same password.

Try putting $ (a dollar sign) in front of the password.

Firefox does not appear on screen when started from the start menu, but task manager says the process is running

Firefox does not appear on screen when started from the start menu or the shortcuts, but task manager says the process is running.

No - I get the message basically saying "Can't run program while Firefox is running. Please close down Firefox & try again".
I rebooted my computer and it all works now - but that's weird it was happening before. Kinda weirded out that it happened at all.
To avoid that happening again, I still wanna know what to do to avoid it or fix it for next time. Thanks

BitLocker Activated - Not request for password

Hi friends!
Today I activated the BitLocker on my operating system (C:\), without the use of TPM.
But, in the startup the operating system is not prompted for the password for decrypt, why?
How can I do to request the password to decrypt the BitLocker drive every time I boot the operating system?
I use the Windows 8.1.
Thank you

Hi,
Generally speaking, this events only occures when BitLocker encryption failed. Therefore, please check your C drive encryption status firstly.
If C drive encrypted, how about reboot your PC? Will the problem occures? Please feel free let us know.

New Mac Book Pro does not ask for password when waking from sleep

I've noticed that several others are having this problem. I have tried all of the suggestions on the other posts and have had no luck getting it to work.
I have it set to "require password to wake this computer from sleep or screensaver".
When I wake the computer in the morning it requires a password but if I wake it after and hour or two it does not. I have my screensaver set to turn on after 4 minutes but it never asks for a password when when I come back to my computer.
I think this is a bug and Apple should deal with it in a security update.
I'm open to any more suggestion though.
Thanks,
Tevadar

FYI, you can also lock your screen manually if you like. Launch Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access, select Keychain Access menu > Preferences > General tab, and check the box to "Show Status in Menu Bar." That places a padlock icon in your menu bar, and clicking on that will give you the option to Lock Screen.

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a pasword in the view password window and now it not asking me to remember and also it is not remembering the password when I go

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a password for a site that was not remembering the correct password for the "view password" window and now it does not guess the password and does not remember the password for that site. All other sites are being remembered.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After I deleted the password from the view password window.

The saved password feature worked well, but the site I had saved the password for required that I change the password. I have found no way to update the password in Firefox. After I deleted the saved password, Firefox did not ask if I wanted the new password saved. When this happened before, I removed and re-installed Firefox, and then it worked. I hope there is another way to update a password.

Mac not asking for Password when waking up from Sleep.

Hi. I have a MacBook Pro that recently stopped asking for my password when the screen sleeps... I am concerned about security and would like to have this feature working again.
I have the "Req password to wake..." setting checked in the Security pref pane and I've tried both rebooting as well as resetting the pram with removing the battery & power and holding down the power button.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried to deselect, restart, then select and restart... see if that works?

Communication user is not requested change password

Hi
We have set a general rule, that users must change password every 90 days (login/password_expiration_time). We have now had a communication user in the system for more than 5 months, and the password is still not expired.
How can this be? Shouldn't communication users be forced to change the password?
In table USR02 I can see a field XUPWDSTATE - "Password Change Mandatory / Optional (See Domain XUPWDSTATE)", but I can't find any documentation on this field. The values are 0,1,254,255. Does anybody know what these values mean and how/when they are set.
Thank you for your help.
Regards, Morten

Well, that's a common misunderstanding:
accounts of type "COMMUNICATION user" are subject of password expiration - however the password change requirement is not enforced (since the server cannot interact with the user). Actually that's not mainly caused by the user type but by the communication protocol being used: RFC and HTTP allow both, interactive and non-interactive system usage. Only the DIAG protocol (used by SAPGUI) ensures that an interaction with the user is possible - and in this case the system is enforcing a password change (when required).
Note 622464 provides an overview on the user types and the ability / requirement to change passwords (and other impacts).
Side-remark: modifying the USR02 field would not have any impact on the password change handling (beside the fact that such direct table manipulations are risky and strongly discouraged).
As reported by other SDN community members (and stated in note 320991, quite at the end) there are some profile parameters that will cause RFC and HTTP based logon to fail for passwords which are expired / initial. Setting those profile parameters will result in a downwards-incompatible system behavior - for this reason the default setting is "off".
Indeed, if you intend to use "technical accounts" for (automated) system-to-system communication, then kindly use the user type "SYSTEM". In that case, the password is neither "expired" nor "initial" - no password change is required nor can it be performed by the SYSTEM user itself. Only an user administrator can set a new password (in systems as of NWAS 7.0: even a downwards-compatible one - despite the password policy, see notes referenced by note 622464).

Guest password is turned on Cisco Connect but not asking for password when joining network.

I just set my wireless modem and i had applied a password for the guest wifi signal and turned it on. But when you join the network its not asking for the password. What do i do to fix this?

When you connect to the Guest network, you wouldn’t be asked for a password. The guest password would only be prompted once you open your internet browser.

Why does my time capsule not recognize the password when trying to connect Apple TV, iPhone 4s or Canon printer

I have tried to set up my wireless as before but the Time Capsule only recognizes my Macbook. I have used the correct password but nothing is happening except an error message. This should have been simple so what is the glitch.

Not sure.. but I strongly recommend you start over.
Use all names that comply with new Apple standard protocol .. ie SMB.. which means the names recommended in the airport utility are WRONG.. do not use them.
That is especially important for the printer.
SHORT.. names should be 10characters or less.. if you can manage it.. 20 at most.
NO SPACES..
PURE ALPHANUMERIC... no apostrophe, no other illegal characters.
So call the TC .. TCgenx (x I replace with the actual generation of the product).
Wireless name.. TCwifi
Use only wireless passwords that also comply.. only a bit longer is ok.. 10-20 characters is usually plenty.. no spaces.. pure alphanumeric.
No luck.. do some more.
Set wireless names for the two bands to different values.. eg.. TC24ghz and TC5ghz
Leave off the security..
Test 2.4ghz band at channels 11, 6, 1
Once it works put the security back on.

Can't connect my ipod touch to my Wifi. It does not recognize my password when i try to join my network and I know my password is correct

I just received an ipod touch 4 generation and very annoyed and have been trying to days to connect it to my wifi at home. I know my passpord is correct but it does not recognize it and does not let me join my network.
help.

Does it say password is incorrect?
- Try:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

TS1424 why i am not asked for password when on mouse maze as grandson can get them without password

why am i not being askd for password on children app mouse maze as grandson unlocked anothr level and bought without password

On the iPad have you got Settings > General > Restrictions > Require Password set to 'immediately' ? The default is a 15 minute period during which it doesn't need to be re-entered. You can also turn off in-app purchases via the Restrictions screen.
