Re: Can't start, it asks for a password

I have a toshiba satellite I can not open. It will have a password it says enter current password to boot. I think I have had the virus and I do not have a Windows or a boot disc.
Please help me :|

Hmm... I think its the BIOS password if there is a blue box.

  • Satellite L50 won't start up - asks for HDD password

    Hi
    hopefully someone can help me
    I have a Toshiba Satellite L50 laptop and when i start it up it says
    +no bootable device please restart system+
    It is still under waranty as it was only bought 6 months ago.
    I took it back where i bought it and they told me to contact Toshiba.
    I am waiting on a call back.
    I am hoping someone can help. It also asks for HDD password.
    Where do I find that information?

    Hi Kym
    I guess the Satellite L50 cannot find the bootable device (HDD) because the HDD has been secured with an HDD password and without this password the HDD isnt accessible and the system will not boot up properly.
    Did you set such HDD password in the past?
    Im asking because such password isnt set on new notebooks. Such HDD password can be set only by notebook owner
    From my knowledge if you dont know such HDD password, you will not be able to get access to the HDD in such case the HDD would be useless and the data would be lost
    Therefore I would recommend you to check if someone has set the HDD password on your notebook in case you dont know the password, you will need to replace the HDD and to reinstall the system once again.

    Sometimes the iDevices just go haywire and ask for a password out of nowhere. Or, could have somebody got hold of your iPod and set it up and entered a password?

  • Can i stopping it asking for my password when downloading from app store?

    Hi all
    wondering if anybody could help me please
    i brought a iphone 4s at the weekend and every time i download a app from the app store i have to put my password in, if i download an app then click on another to download i have to put it in again, as my password has to be more than 8 letters long its getting a bit annoying having to keep putting it in every app i download and was wondering if there is a way to set it up so that i dont have to put the password in for every download i make please ?
    thanks in advance

    Unless you changed it in Settings>General>Restrictions, you have 15 minutes after entering your password during which, if you buy other things, you will not be required to enter it again. Outside of 15 minutes, you will always be required to enter it. That is a security feature that is not user changeable.

  • My calendar is asking for Google password but not accepting it

    It just happened now, out of the blue. My email accounts work well but my calendars keep popping up asking me for my Google password but they don't accept it.
    I use Thunderbird version 31.2.0, Lightning 3.3.1 and Provider for Google Calendar 0.32 (the latest version doesn't work at all)

    I have the same problem.
    Last month i did the fix (desinstalled provider and lightening and relinked agenda to google calendar and disabled the autoupdate)
    Since then everything worked and i did not touch anything. Nevertheless all of a sudden, agenda started to ask for my password but don't accept it and then says that an error has occured while preparing the agenda which won't be available.

    There is only one thing that happens -- the Server does not respond.
    Your mac concludes that you must have entered the wrong password. That may happen once, but then other issues become more likely, and it keeps asking for a new password.
    Sometimes the Server is down for maintenance. Sometimes something is configured wrong. Some services do this on purpose to get you to use WebMail (pick up your Mail with your Browser) so they can show you some ads.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • Why am I asked for a password when trying to use about;config, where is the password set and can I change/delete this?

    I tried to use about:config, but I was asked for a password. I don't remember entering a password and have never used the master password function. Where has this come from, and how can I change the password or get rid of the need for a password?

  • My imac does not start and asks for bootdisk

    i bought a new imac and connected it with internet to upgrade the drivers. Power went off... and now imac does not start.
    When it starts it asks for the boot disk and no boot disk came up with my mac.
    Please help how can i reinstall mac.
    thanks

    None of the options work. I press the power on button keeping the option and R button pressed but the only option that appears is
    First blank white screen appears as soon as i power on (option R is pressed) and then the following message
    No bootable Device -- Insert boot disk and press any key
    (Ethernet cable is connected but it does not go for internet recovery either)
    No more activity.
    Also if you can guide from where I can download OS X Lion for reinstalling it to the imac, please.
    Does every mac come with a restore/bootable disk or not? We ordered two macs but did not get any disk with any of them.

    If you encrypted the backup, there is no way around it. You will need to configure your iPhone as a new device.
    From iTunes: About iOS backups:
    In the iTunes Summary screen, select "Encrypt iPhone backup" if you want to encrypt the information stored on your computer when iTunes makes a backup. Encrypted backups are indicated by a padlock icon, and a password is required to restore the information to iPhone. You may want to write down the password for your backup and store it in a safe place. If you use a Mac, when you set a password you can select to store the password in the keychain. With iOS 4 and later, you can transfer the iOS keychain backup to a new device if you encrypt the backup.
    Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
    If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose set up as a new device.
