Password not accepted after automatic software upgrade Pavilion a6863w

My pc will not accept my password since last week when an automatically downloaded took place.

What password are you talking about, log-in, bios, application and what application was updated?
For now you could always boot into Safe Mode with Command Prompt and type  rstrui.exe 
Follow the onscreen instructions to select a restore point prior to the update.

  • User password not accepted after migration

    Source: iMac Lion OSX.7.4  Destination iMac OSX6.8
    Problem: user password is not accepted after migration
    What I did: Tried to migrate over the LAN, but in the migration assistant the other Mac was mutually never recognized. (Did migrations several times successfully in our LAN before). Last time the LIon Mac was the destination, who is now the source.
    I backupped then the  user with Time machine on the Lion and installed it with the migration assistant on the Snow Leopard system. As as the password was not accepted, I repeated the backup/migration process once. No help
    I reset in System Prefs/User accounts the password of that user. But cannot login either
    First time, that a migration process fails for me.
    Any help is appreciated
    Thanks
    Urs

    The target computer itself has admin accounts thats not the problem, I can access it. The issue is that the migrated additional user account is not accessible with its password.
    I have found here an istruction how to reset a password in single user mode.
    http://www.macyourself.com/2009/08/03/how-to-reset-your-mac-os-x-password-withou t-an-installer-disc/
    But that does not help either.The answer after the dscl -passwd command is that I do not have access (or similar, I don't remember)
    My guess is that backward migration (Lion to Snow) causes the problem. May be I need to create the user freshly and to copy his documents manually

  • Phone not working after the software upgrade

    I performed the software upgrade as indicated by the phone in the notifications.
    One the phone rebooted, I proceeded to enter my email accounts and it froze on a white screen with a spinning wheel.
    I rebooted and it continued to freeze.
    I took the battery out, rebooted, still can't add email accounts.  It freezes in the setting section.  I actually can't change any settings.
    If I reply to a text, the screen freezes black.
    If I try to reply to an email, the screen says, "Could not display this message"
    I have wiped it three times, powered off a billion times and still keeps freezing.  The update has been nothing but grief. 
    Any advice??

  • HomeHub 2.0 Password not accepted after factory re...

    I have done several password resets after carrying out a restore to factory settings, but as I soon as I type in the new password, it does not accept it. I know for sure the password is the one to which I set it to. Is is a bug and does anybody have any solutions?
    I look forward to hearing any answers.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Once you enter your chosen password (twice on initial reset) you should see the 'proceed with' button
    I've just checked and its working fine for me.
    When I clicked the settings tab I am not asked to put the password in.
    I get
    Basic Settings
    This section contains the common settings that most users need to access. Some of these options are listed below.
    All the rest should dispaly text
    Do you see this on your PC?
    What browser are you using IE, Firefox or something else?
    edit
    Are you clicking on the advanced settings (thats when I am asked for my password and it works for me).

  • Apple id password not accepted after ipad update to ios5

    So I've just upgraded my iPad 2 with ios 5 and the apple id password doesn't work.  I've reset the password 4 times now and still it's not accepting it.  I've turned off the iPad and tried again and still no joy.  Any ideas?

    Well this is simular to the problem i have had in rencent log ins on apple. 1. Is the email correct? 2. Did you type the password correct? (There HAS to be an upper case letter in the pass because apple accounts' passwords REQUIRE at least one uppercase letter) If this was not helpful please try again or add more details next time.

  • Password not accepted after changing user name

    I changed my user name in the system preferences -> user and groups -> advanced options.I did not change my password tho.
    I then put my macbook to sleep. When I wake it, it won't accept my old password!
    I did some searching online, and found solutions which work for previous versions of Mountain Lion or Lion here. OS X: Password may not be accepted after changing user's full name
    However I believe I am using a 10.9.3 (I may have updated to Mavericks, I am sorry I forgot), so none of these tricks work for me.
    Can someone help me out? much thanks!

  • ICloud password not accepted after start Yosemite

    Since a few weeks I have the following issue on my MacBook, running the latest OSx version: After starting the laptop I am asked to choose a user to unlock my hard disk (FileVault). My password is accepted. A few seconds after the desktop is shown, OSx asks my password for my iCloud account. When I enter my password, the popup screen to fill out the password keeps returning. Like it is not accepting my password. When I press Cancel, the popup screen disappears and I can work without any trouble.
    Entering my iCloud password on e.g. the iCloud site or when installing an application is going ok. I am using the same iCloud account on my macbook, iPad and iPhone. On the iPad and iPhone I don't experience any problems.
    How can I find out which application is asking for my iCloud account or (even better) how can I solve this problem??
    I already did a password change hoping that this would solve any syncing problems. Unfortunately this didn't help.
    Anyone?????????

    I have this too. I had it for Facetime, but I logged out of it, but to log out of icloud i need to go into System Preferences, but it crashes every time i click on the Icloud icon. But only crashes for Icloud, everything else works fine.

  • Text notification not working after recent software upgrade.

    I also have the Galaxy s4 and have noticed issues after the recent upgrade. My device will only vibrate now when receiving text messages, the notification sound doesn't seem to work anymore. I've tried adjusting settings on both my messaging apps until I'm blue in the face and can't seem to make anything work. Other notifications still work ok for the most part. Any ideas??

    Please, nobody waste any time replying to this issue as the problem appears to be fixed now. I rarely restart my laptop as I usually just put it to sleep, however, I restarted it and the problem looks to have gone away. I may have fixed it with some of the things I tried, but the laptop may just have needed restarting - I'm not sure.
    But as long as the problem is resolved, I'm happy. :-)))
    Thanks anyway!

  • Epson Workforce 845 will not print after IPad software upgraded

    All worked well before I upgraded my Ipad2 software yesterday.  No longer prints.  Message when I press print says it is searching for an AirPrint printed, and finds none on my network.  Nothing has changed except the software upgrade.  hat must I do?

    Thanks...other computers on the wireless network continue to work well.  The Epson Workforce 845 is an approved printer on AirPrint.  Trying to find a printer setup screen on the iPad without success.  When I bought the new wireless printer, it worked right out of the box with the iPad.
    I am tempted to restore the software to the original factory settings through iTunes but fear losing everything that has been added since I got it.  A disclaimer on iTunes says I can back all up, and later reinstall after I reset to original factory settings, but I am skeptical.  Any experience in this area?

  • Password not accepted after sleep

    If my Macbook Pro goes to sleep, when it wakes, it won't accept my password.  The funny/horrible thing is, if I click on switch user, then select my account from the list, I can log in.  This happened in 10.7 and I updated to 10.72 and it still happens.

    no, it would be the instructions for a macbook pro. which one do you have (what year was it made?)
    if you're has a door in which you can remove the battery, late 08 and earlier, then do this
    Resetting the SMC on Mac portables with a battery you can remove
    Note: Learn about removing the battery on MacBook and MacBook Pro.
    Shut down the computer.
    Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
    Remove the battery.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    If you have one that is from 2010 and onward and is the unibody design with the SD slot and no door on the bottom of the computer (you would have to screw off the bottom to get to the inside) then do this:
    Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your ownNote: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

  • HT202664 my iphoto is under an old apple ID, how do I upgrade using my current ID? The current Iphoto is not working after the software upgrade. If I delete the iphoto app will i lose my photo library?

    I have a MacBook pro I recently upgraded to OSX. iPhoto is now not working as it was purchased under an old apple ID and I cant find a way to use my current ID to upgrade it. Also if I delete iPhoto to then repurchase it, will I lose my photo library?

    1. iPhoto won’t run any differently based on the Apple ID it’s associated with, but can only be updated from that one.
    2. No. Back it up anyway.
