  • Needing to reset my BIOS password

    Hi, I need to reset the power on password associated with the BIOS.  I have removed the back in 2 places but I need some kind of schematic that tells me where to locate the header and jumper labels.  I know nothing about computers so this is me blind...I have entered the password wrong and gotten a code before...that code is 90407744.  I am on a G71-340US HP computer with Windows 7 OS and Home Premium.  I have instructions for resetting the password but do not know where to find the header and jumper.  Thanks  ybliku2

  • HT5624 I need to reset my Apple ID password, but it says that my security questions are not correct and I no longer have access to the email it sends the correct information to. Please help!

    I need to reset my Apple ID password, but it says that my security questions were not answered correctly.  The email address associated with the questions to reset the answers is no longer available to me. It is my old college email.  Does anyone know how to change this email? The unavailable email is not in my list of emails approved in my Apple ID settings.

    You cannot and need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • I need to reset a forgotton master password.

    I forgot the master password, how can I reset it or clear it?

    Hi George,
    It is easy to reset but that then you loose all the stored passwords, so before doing that try to list all paswords and sites you sue with passwords, with the passwords that you remmember. Also it may be worth you making a final attempt to try all likley master passwords, including any likley typos you could have made.

  • Hi i have just bought a used ibook from goodwill and need to reset the id and password.is there anyway to do this? i called tech support and they said to try here because our ibook is considered opsolete and they can't help me. thanks

    hi before i start i did not steal it, i bought a used ibook and need to know if there is a way to reset or get past the old user id and pass word. we bought it from goodwil so no way to ask old owner and i called tech support and it is conciderd opsolete so no help from them and know one in this area works on mac. so what can i do?  this is for my daughter and we are not rich thats why we bought used. thanks for any help.

    Here are the instructions, as I have them:
    Press the Command + s key during startup. This takes you to Single User Mode, where you will see a command line.
    Type this when the command-line prompt (>) appears:
    mount -uw /
    rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    shutdown -h now
    When the iBook restarts, you will see the setup screen. This allows you to create a new account. BE SURE to give yourself administrative privileges. You can now use this new account and set it to log in automatically with this new account if you don't want to be bothered with the login screen every time you start up.
    You can also delete the old account if you want to free up some hard drive space.
    Good luck!
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    However, it is desirable to do it with the disc, if it is available, which is why I waited to see if the user has the disc before supplying the instructions for doing it via Single User Mode.

  • HT4759 I can't remember my answer to the security question and I need to reset my apple id password

    hi I have tried to reset my password and cannot do it. I can't remember what date of birth I used (I don't usually use my real one) and when I tick the option to send an email to my address, I can't receive the email because I can't log in to my apple id

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
    If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

    Keep trying any password until you get an error/halt code.
    Then visit site below & use error/halt code to get a working master password.

  • Need to reset password for digital ID to sign doc in Adobe Reader on thinkpad using Windows

    Hi,
    I need to reset (or find) my password for the self-signed digital ID I created in order to sign a doc in Adobe Reader using Adobe Echosign software. I'm currently on my laptop (thinkpad) which uses Windows. How do I do this?
    Thanks

    Unfortunately, only you can remember your password for a self-signed digital ID.  No one can reset or find it for you.

  • Want to reset the stored ID/Password for a site

    I need to reset the stored ID/Password for a site. I entered the wrong ID and clicked Save on the pop-up for saving password for the site. Turns out I used the wrong ID to login and now I can't reset it to the correct spelling. It keeps overriding what I type in.

    Highlight that entry in the drop down list and press Shift+Delete to remove it.

  • Dell M1330 BIOS Admin Password

    Check out the sticky post in this group from Dell; they can't help with that here anymore, you have to contact support.  

    Need help clearing the BIOS Admin Password. Not Windows password, not BIOS "system" password.  This is the BIOS Admin Password.  I have already tried removing the CMOS battery to clear and that did not work.  I understand there is a way to "break" the password for these systems.
    Can you help with a password for this system?

  • NEED BIOS BACKDOOR PASSWORD FOR HP PROBOOK 6540b. Have tried all types of bios resets, no luck.

    NEED BIOS BACKDOOR PASSWORD FOR HP LAPTOP PROBOOK 6540b. Have tried all types of bios resets, doesn't work.
    The password stay's no error code for entering wrong ones.

    Hi, 
    I too have been pulling my hair out with this problem on the 6540B. However after  2 days of various driver combinations I've finally found a working fix. I don't have the luxury of reinstalling Windows XP as the machine is custom configured with apps which will take over a week to configure again.
    If you've got no audio it's probably because you've installed the IDT High Def Audio Driver. You may have tried a whole bunch of other options also to try and rectify the problem as I did.
    The solution is fairly simple:
    Goto to add/remove programs and remove "SoundMax".
    Reboot
    The audio driver may try to reinstall on boot up... allow it to install. It will still not work and will still show exclamation mark against IDT driver in Device Manager.
    Goto run... then type regedit and hit enter. Windows registry opens.
    Goto My Computer>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SYSTEM>CurrentControlSet>Services>
    Delete the WHOLE KEY for AEAudio and then exit regedit
    Go to device manager and uninstall the IDT High Def Audio device from Device Manager
    Then using the original HP Application and Driver Recovery DVD supplied with the notebook, run the autoplay, choose Hardware Enabling Drivers, tick only the IDT High Def Audio driver and follow the installation instruction on screen. You will be prompted to reboot after which Windows will find new hardware. The IDT will install itself and you will find that the sound works!
    Good Luck!
    For those that cannot find their original disk, the IDT Audio Driver from the original disk is available at http://tinyurl.com/IDTAudio6540b or http://www.4shared.com/file/RxXn5afj/IDTAUDIO.html

    gogogo183, welcome to the forum,
    did you buy the system used, directly from Lenovo or from a shop?
    There is no supervisor passwords default, it needs to have been set by someone. You need to contact whoever you purchased the X60 from in order to seek assistance with this.
