Need to Clarify: Reset Windows Login Password can hack to CSS data?

Dear ThinkPad fans
Until now, we both know that we can find many ways to pass over and reset Windows Login Screen. So my question is if they can use tools to reset my Windows Login Passwords, can they use reseted pass phrases to discover my CSS data?
Any can clarify to me? Thank a lot.

  • When trying to reset my login / password, text in red says not connected to internet please verify connection, when the macbook air IS connected to wifi.

    cannot reset forgotten login password.

    You don't need to be connected to the Internet to reset the password.
    Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities window appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen—not from any of the items in the OS X Utilities window.
    In the window that opens, type this:
    resetp
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens. Close the Terminal window to get it out of the way.
    Select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected. You won't be able to do this if FileVault is active.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but the Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as the login password), there's no way to recover it.

  • I signed up yesterday with synch. I dont know my password and I need it to reset a new password. Please advise how to set a new password when I dont know old 1

    I signed up yesterday with synch. I don't know my password and I need it to reset a new password. Please advise how to set a new password when I dont know old 1
    I set it up on my "upstairs computer" and then came to my "downstairs computer" to synch and I can not get into the account because of the above password problem. I write down my passwords. I must have mistyped it or mis written.
    I want to change my password

    The new Sync version uses the Firefox account and stores the login data (username/email and password) under the https://accounts.firefox.com site heading in the Password Manager and use the signedInUser.json file in the profile folder to store the credentials once connected to the account to avoid having to enter the master password on each start.

    Resetting Password
    1. Shut down comp & wait a few minutes.
    2. Turn on & at the same time hold down the “command” & “R” keys.
    3.  Next screen….. In the menu bar click on Utilities (NOT OS X UTILITIES)
    4.  In the drop down menu, click on Terminal.
    5.  In the terminal pop up small window:  Type exactly—> resetpassword  Hit return key.
    6.  Reset password window will pop up.  Follow the onscreen instructions to reset password.  Make sure you select the admin account to reset the password.
    7.  You can ignore the “keychain” pop up windows, which is what I did.  Does not affect anything.
    You can do the keychain stuff at your leisure.
    8.  Quit out of everything & restart your computer.
    9.  Enter your new reset password.
    Also, check out the following User Tip:  Reset the user password in OS X Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks and Yosemite
    =================
    When selecting passwords, make sure it's one that you will NEVER forget AND no one else can figure out. 
    Old school--- > Print it out & keep in a safe place.  A place that ONLY you know about AND never forget.  Also helpful when you cannot get pass the log-in screen.
    New school---> Get a password manager utility.  Highly recommend 1Password which is shareware.  Another good password manager utility is Dashlane.  Best of all, it's FREE! 
    Do a Google search for free password managers.

  • Different password demands after resetting users login password

    iMac 27", Mavericks
    Had to reset users (norm.) password.
    Now user gets demands from Mail, Calendar agent and com.apple.iCloudHelper.xpc where those programs want to use keychain and user must give his password.
    What has happend?
    How to stop these demands?

    Resetting the user login password does not reset the keychain password. You must change the password on the login keychain to match the users new password.
    You can change it in the Keychain Access program.
    If you do not know the users old password, you'll have to reset the login keychain, losing all stored passwords.

    You have to boot to the Recovery HD, Command + r at startup, and from there use Terminal in the Utilities menu item and typ in Resetpassword. A dialog box will open where you can do that.

  • I need some help reseting my ID password i am trying by e-mail but they dont reply !!

    how to reset an apple ID password i am trying by e-mail but they dont reply ... my i cloud is not working because of this .....

    Not sure what you mean by "same problem". The OP forgot their Security Questions and needed them reset.
    Do you still have the old ID signed into iCloud? If you do, and you created a new Apple ID, and you have Find My iPhone turned on, then you are going to have to reset the password on the old ID to sign out of iCloud. Follow the Apple Security link I provided above to get the Security Questions reset.

  • Need To Re-Install Windows & iTunes.  Can I Save Playlists, Ratings, Etc?

    Okay, here's the issue I'm about to face.
    I am going to wipe my pc clean (reformat hard drive, reinstall Windows XP Pro, etc) and start over. Then I'll be downloading and installing iTunes once again.
    I have over 11,000 songs, all rated (stars) and organized into playlists. I have over 200 playlists (by albums, by genres, etc) and all the info attached to each song.
    Sounds simple, but HOW do I download and install iTunes so I can have it RETAIN all this information? The last time I upgraded iTunes (just a simple UPGRADE) it lost all this info and I had to listen to each song and re-rate them one by one.
    Can anyone tell me how to go about doing this? I don't want to lose this info, it'd drive me crazy. Email [email protected] with any help. Thank you SO so much!!

    Deauthorize iTunes on your PC before you reformat.
    http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive
    That article explains what you need to do. The important file that holds ratings, play counts, etc is named
    iTunesLibrary.itl
    Another thing you need to know is the paths to the music files have to be the exact same thing after you reformat. So if all your music is on an external hard drive named F:, that exHD still has to be named F: after you reformat.
    If it's named E: or G: iTunes won't be able to find anything.
