Password Changes Getting Ridiculous
I'm sorry, but it seems like the frequency with which I have to change my password is getting to be too much. It wouldn't even be an issue if the restrictions on the characters, reusing old passwords, etc. weren't so heavy. I get more requests for password changes on the Apple Discussion boards than on eBay, PayPal, and Bank of America. Is there a reason for all this?
Hi, Zak -
Also, apparently many, if not most, of the folk who signed up for the Community Events thingie (see Eric's note about that near the top of this forum), which included agreeing to an NDA, ended up having to change their passwords.
Yes, it is irksome. I used the same password for near ten years, and even after several months of using a new one my fingers keep wanting to enter the old one.

How to get the username in a custom password change routine / procedure / form when a user's password has expired and is redirected automatically to this custom program?
We use the 2nd parameter in LOGIN_URL column in WWSSO_LS_CONFIGURATION_INFO$ table to get to this custom change-password proc.OK !
Use that maybe good :
select USERID into v_user from sys.aud$
where ntimestamp#=(
select max(ntimestamp#)
from sys.aud$ ); -

I changed my gmail password after suspicious activity was detected. It works fine on my computer but my iphone 5 doesn't recognize my new password ("cannot get mail" message). I've tried changing my phone settings to the new password, but no good.
Hello there dinadinadina,
It sounds like you have modified the password settings for your Gmail account after changing the password. Thats where I would have started too. Next I would restart the device and test it one more time, and then remove and add the account again in Settings:
Get help with Mail on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
Restart your iOS device.
Delete the affected email account from your device.
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap the affected email account.
Tap Delete Account.
Add your account again.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

I get an Internal LR/Gmail error "Couldn't get 'My Contacts' group id". Could this be due to a Gmail password change and if so how do I rectify it?
Rodger,
Thank you for your gracious welcome . . .
and thank you for your swift response . . .
and thank you for your information (and encouragement!).
Yes, I read that too, but searched in vain for the specifity of, say, your direction:
"Go ahead and update to 8.0.2, as it contains the 8.0.1 update."
So I shall!
Again, many thanks. -
We forgot Apple password, changed it. I can't get into Apple but my wife can get into it on her iPhone 5s and we can get into it on the ipad but I can't on my 4S. Any suggestions?
Hello there, pacase1.
From what I understand you've changed the password but can't login to a particular feature on your iPhone 4s. If that is the case, the following Knowledge Base article provides some good pointers to use depending on which feature/service you're trying to sign into on your iPhone:
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID

If the issue is still with your password, feel free to review the following documentation:

I had to change my password to get into my iTunes account. I had $11.11 remaining on a card I had. I no longer have that card but it wants the code from the card. Now what?
First, please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. The only people who will reply to your posts are we your fellow users. iTunes Support will never respond to posts made here.
As to your issue, confirm with your bank that they do not block access from on-line services or otherwise have restrictions on with whom a card can be used. For some company cards, such blocks can be set up. If you confirm that no such restrictions are in place, post back and we'll go from there.

Keep getting Keychain password changed alert after removing password
I Keep getting a "Keychain password changed" alert after removing a user account password my mother applied to the account and then forgot. How do I keep this message from continuing to appear?
I am not really sure how the keychain system works as I have never used it on my own Mac.keychain is where you store the passwords you use on various websites, in mail and other apps. I suspect you use it too. but it's normally quite unobtrusive.
by default the password to unlock the keychain is the same as the account password. but this does not have to be and you can change it. when you reset the account password the keychain password was not reset. unless you can recall the old account password the old keychain is of no use to you. go to the folder homedirectory/library/keychains and delete the file login.keychain (or move it somewhere else). then log out/in. a new empty keychain will be created with the password the same as the new account password and you can start saving passwords in that. -

I keep on getting emails asking me to reset my password when I haven't requested a password change. I somebody trying to access my account as i've received this msg like 4 times in last few days now?
ThanksIf you use Mail.app, hover your cursor over any of the links in the emails you're receiving to see if they lead directly to an Apple-owned subdomain, like so...
If the links in the email(s) you received are exactly like this, then it's possible there's an issue with your account that you should probably follow up on. If they don't look like exactly like this, then these are phishes, and you can post screenshots of those links here so that someone from Apple can follow up on them. (Best not to click on these!) -
I can no longer make my AOL e mail work with Mac Mail on all my devices. When I try to set up the account and put in the correct aol account and password I get the message "Unable to verify account name or password". I know the account name and password is correct as I can open the AOL e mail page on Safari. I have changed the password, and it still does not work. AOL tech support has been no help. AOL email worked for years but last week due to suspected spam activity AOL locked my AOL account. I got that straightened out but now i cannot set it up on any of my devices: Macbook Air, Ipad, I pad mini and iPhone 6 without that message. I took everything to Apple store and everything is set up correctly on my devices. AOL tech support is no help and keeps giving me different solutions and answers, none of which has worked. Any solutions out there? All my Apple Software is up to date on all my devices
Delete your Gmail account from the Mail/Contacts/Calendars settings page, and then add it back in using the new Gmail password.

ACS 5.3 UCP Password Change
Hi at all,
i have a Problem with the UCP Webside Password Change.
The Side is running without Problem. A Password Change for the normal User is also o.k.
Here me Problem.
I will use this Side also for our Admins to Change here Password but this User has also a Enable Password.
Is it Possible to Change also this Password with the UCP Webside?
Thanks for help.
regards
AndreasHey Tushar,
That is our current setup. Right now each user logs in with their AD credentials to get into user exec mode and the same password to get into privileged exec mode. I would like to have a user login with their normal AD credentials to get into user exec mode and a different password (specific to each user, not locally on the device) to login to privileged exec mode. We are doing this for security reasons. Hopefully that clarifys what I'm trying to do.
Thanks -
AD password change comes up, user changes password.
Tries to send signed or encrypted email with a Comodo S/MIME certificate, and gets the following error:
""An error occurred in the underlying security system. Key not valid for us in specified state."
I now have two reports of this error - one on Windows 7, and one on Windows 8.0 (remote user).
The one on Windows 8.0, we tried removing their S/MIME cert from Outlook/Windows and re-adding, this did NOT resolve the issue.
Plan was originally to have the 8.0 user ship their machine in, and wipe it, since nothing else could fix it and I wasn't finding anyone else with the same issue. Now that I've got a second user with the same issue, its looking like a bug/issue and
not a random glitch.
Thanks in advance for any and all help with this!Hi,
Thank you for your question.
I am trying to involve someone familiar with this topic to further look at this issue.
Thanks,

Hello,
Can someone point me in the right direction in regards to changing the OIM database password on 9.1.0.2?
We recently changed the password and I updated the xlconfig.xml file and updated two XML files located in the project domain using the method described in the below article:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs81/admin_ref/utils17.html
I copied the output generated and edited the <password-encrypted> node in the XML files.
We are running WebLogic 10.3.3, on 10g database, 9.1.0.2 BP14 installed.
OIM starts up though we get a System Error message but a refresh brings up the login page. After attempting to login the following error is recorded in our log files:
ERROR,14 Feb 2012 08:49:45,138,[XELLERATE.WEBAPP],Class/Method: tcLogonAction/execute encounter some problems: Error occurred during login - Exeption Code: DB_READ_FAILED
Thor.API.Exceptions.tcAPIException: Error occurred during login - Exeption Code: DB_READ_FAILED
I presume it has to do with the password change but I have changed every file that I am aware of. Have I missed a step or missed a file? Is there a preferred way to change the database password within WebLogic? The UI doesn't allow it due to the encryption and I don't want to turn that off to clear text.
Thanks,
AndrewTo change the database password, there are only a couple spots to update.
Within WebLogic, you'll want to update your JDBC resources with the new password on your two connections listed.
Then as you mentioned in the xlconfig.xml file, you'll find the sections for the DirectDB. Where the password is at, set the encrypted=false and provide the literal of your new password. Now when OIM starts, it will re-encrypt the xlconfig.xml file, so you can delete the one with plain text.

Password Change on MSSQL Server, now no Connection to Workspace
Hello,
our IT-Department changed the password to login to the MSSQL Server. Now i cant login to Workspace or Financial Reporting. The Error message says the the GSM Service on Port 1800 cant be reached. The Services are marked as started.
I have already used the Configuration Utility and the Service Configurator, there is a tab called database where you can change the login credentials. But i still cant login.
There is a note below which says:
Note: Database properties are tied to some startup scripts and configuration files. If you make any changes on these properties you should change those related files per hand.
Which Files are meant ?
Where else is the password stored ?
What else can i do to check if the GSM Service is running ?
Thx for your help
I forgot to say we use an 9.2 enviroment on win2k3 servers.
Edited by: Kevin Kraft on 01.10.2009 08:39Hello,
i talked to support an they gave me the advise to restore the old password to get services running and then do the following steps:
Changing the Services Repository Database Password
When you change the password that the services use to access the repository database, the order
of steps is critical. Carefully read all instructions before performing them.
Caution!
Make sure to change the password in Workspace before changing it in the database. If you
perform the steps in the wrong order, you may lose the ability to run Workspace.
➤ To change the repository database password:
1 From RSC, select Name Service, Repository Service, or Event Service.
2 Click Show item properties, and select the Storage tab.
3 Change the password and click OK.
4 Repeat step 1 through step 3 for all Name Services, Repository Services, and Event Services with the same
database account, making certain to enter the same password for each one.
If these services use different database accounts, perform this step only for those that use the
account whose password you are changing.
5 Close RSC.
6 In LSC, click Show host properties, and select the Database tab.
7 Change the password and click OK.
This password property (like the other properties on the Database tab) applies to all LSC services
on the local host, all of which use one database account.
For more information about LSC, see Chapter 8, “Configuring LSC Services.”
8 Repeat step 6 and step 7 on every host that contains LSC services, making certain to enter the password
the same way each time.
9 If you are using the same database for row-level security, change the password for row-level security from
the Administer module.
10 Stop the Reporting and Analysis services.
11 Change the password in the database, making certain it matches the password entered for Reporting and
Analysis services.
12 Restart the services.
This procedure can also be found in the file hsadmin.pdf which is the Workspace Administration Guide.
My Problem is the IT-Department cant restore the old password, so i fear i have to reinstall the services :(.
thx for your help
Kevin
