thanks for the helpHi,
What you mean by "apxchpwd is not upgraded"?
If you store old install scripts and other scripts in your server, it is not Oracles fault=)
When you upgrade and you like store all scripts somewhere for later use e.g. reset password, you need take actions to manage files.
Delete/overwrite old version files.
If you like after you install/upgrade Apex you can delete all install files when you have copy image folder to HTTP server alias /i/.

Reset admin password - SJSWS 7u8

Hi,
I've read through the documentation and a few of the other posts about resetting the admin password in SJSWS. Plainly, it doesn't work
[root@server bin]# ./wadm reset-admin-password --user admin --host localhost --port 8989
Please enter admin-password>
Please enter admin-password again>
CLI103 Command 'reset-admin-password' failed. :: netscape.ldap.LDAPRebindI've not been able to find any matches to the 'netscape.ldap.LDAPRebind' error, and don't know why it's talking about ldap in the first place (as SJSWS isn't attached to any LDAP).
The local machine (RHEL5.5, Linux x86_64, amd64 SJSWS install) does use LDAP for authentication, but it shouldn't be trying to touch that.
I can't find any further log entries for the failed password change either.
This is the administration console, with one other node hanging off of it.

Resetting admin password. Please help!!

My friend has a G4 ibook with mac osx 10.3.8 installed, unfortunately he has forgotten his password and this prevents him from installing any software now. I have read the support pages from apple which state i should use the installation disc of the original mac os x. This has unfortunately been lost. I have tried with a newer installation disc "tiger" and this does not work. Can anyone help me.
Thanks

Alan....try the following.....
Reset Admin Password ..... using Terminal
1. Type.... passw < return>
2. It'll prompt for the...... “old password” <return>
3. Type..... “new password” <return>
4. Retype ...... “password” <return>
Changing the password in this way has the same effect as changing through "System Preferences".
Reset Admin Password .... using Single User Mode
Hold down (command+S) at startup, you will be presented with a black screen containing a bunch of code... this is called....... Single-User Mode

Resetting admin password from non-original CD

We have a 400 Mhz Powerbook G3 running Mac OS X 10.3.3. We got it from eBay as is––no CD's, no other information. Now that I have inadvertently locked System Preferences, that is a problem because we do not know the admin password.
I see that you can reset the password by booting up from a Mac OS install disc. My question is, would it be possible to do that using the OS X install disc for v. 10.3.7 that came with my iBook G4?

Usually the OEM install disc that comes with a particular computer model will not work with other models. However, you can give it a try. If you can get it to boot the Powerbook, then after the installer loads select Reset Admin Password from the File menu.

If you are unable to boot from an installer DVD:
(these will only work on Leopard or earlier)
1. Boot to Safe Mode by restarting and after the chime press and hold down
      the COMMAND-S keys until a black screen with white type appears.
2. At the prompt, type the following commands pressing return after each
      command line:
     /sbin/fsck -yf
     If you do not receive a "Filesystem OK" message then repeat this command
     until you do. If after seven tries you still do not receive a "Filesystem OK"
     message, then the system is corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.
     mount -uw /
     cd /private/var/db/netinfo
     mv local.nidb local.old
     rm ../.AppleSetupDone
     shutdown -r now
The second-to-last command above will cause OS X to think that the operating system is newly installed, and when the new owner starts up the computer it will send him/her to the startup wizard where he/she can start a new user without reinstalling.
This last method does not actually change a password. It simply removes the user accounts and lets you create an initial admin account as if the computer were new out of the box.
Reset Admin Password Using The Terminal
You can reset the password by printing out (or writing down) and carefully following these steps.
First, find the short name of the admin user on the machine. The easiest way of doing this is by looking at what the directory is called in the Users folder.
Now, start in Single-user Mode. It should boot into a command line.
Enter these exact lines. Press RETURN after each.
mount -uw /
ifconfig lo0 up
cd /var/db/netinfo
netinfod -s local
Now you'll need that short name. Enter "passwd", a space, and the short name of the admin. For example, if the admin was rather prosaically called "imadmin", you would enter "passwd imadmin".
The computer will now prompt you to change the password for "lmadmin" (or whatever the short name was). Go ahead and enter a new password.
Now, enter:
sync
reboot
and the machine will reboot. The admin password should now be changed.

How do you reset Admin password (when not logged in as Admin)??

Here's my predicament. I set up 3 accounts on our laptop - one for me and my wife (Standard accounts) and a House Account as the only Admin. Now, I don't remember the password for the House Account, which serves as the Admin.
I am trying to load new software, but it request administrative privileges. To make matters worse, when I try to install the MAC OSX startup disk (like the help manual says you should to reset the admin password), before my computer will restart the startup disk, it asks me for the Admin password. Because I am not logged in as the Admin, I can't even restart the computer when prompted by the startup and install the OS again.
Any suggestions or help with this issue?
Eric

Did you create an Open Firmware password as well? If not then just insert the OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive and restart the computer. After the chime press and hold down the 'C' key until the spinning gear appears below the dark gray Apple logo.

Resetting User Password in Lion, Mountain Lion & Mavericks
Boot into your Recovery Partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
In Terminal, type:
resetpassword
...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
Good luck,

How do i reset admin password. no disc but system automativally logs me in as administrator and can access root user mode

I recenly got this macbook, MA&00LL/A, max OS X, V:10.4.11, 2GHz IntelCore 2 duo, 2GHz, When I power up it automatically logs me on as administrator but prompts for password when I try to access/change certain features. I got the macbook from my cousin who has forgot password and has lost disc. I can access root user mode but as iam unfamiliar with apple I am hesitant to delete anything without making things worse. Is their anyway I can reset this admin password without the disc or simply delete this user and reconfigure system as myself as administrator. step by step instructions would be appreciated at this stage till i familiarize myself more. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If it came down to buying a disc, how much roughly do these cost??? thanks again

If you don't have your install disks you can get the 10.4 gray disks by calling Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 They can send them to you for about $16 per disk plus S & H. Just give them your serial number and they'll know which ones you need.
To find your serial number go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info, the System Profiler will then come up. The Serial Number (System) is down near the bottom of the Hardware Overview list.
If you don't have your install disc handy,then follow these steps
1. Start up in single-user mode (hold Command-S as thecomputer starts up).
2. Type: mount -uw /
3. Press Return.
4. Type this: passwd (user's short name) Replace "(user's shortname)" with the short name of the user account whose password you wish to reset. If you are not sure what the account name is, you can get a list of usernames by typing: ls /Users
5. Press Return.
6. Enter a new user password.
7. Press Return.
8. Type: reboot
9. Press Return.

AirPort won't auto connect after resetting admin password

The other day I reset my admin password using the install disk and now AirPort won't log on automatically when I start my laptop. Has this happened to any one else? I have tried going through the network preferences, internet connect, and tried a couple of other things and the problem hasn't been fixed.

Try the following, in order, until (hopefully) resolved:
1a. Delete Preferred Network(s)
System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Advanced > AirPort tab
Under "Preferred Networks," delete the network(s) you regularly use from the list.
1b. Delete AirPort Keychain Entries
Launch the "Keychain Access" application located in Applications/Utilties.
Click on the "Kind" filter at the top, and look for any "AirPort network password" entries...and delete them.
1c. Add Preferred Network(s)
System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Advanced > AirPort tab
Add the preferred network(s) using the "+" button.
Restart or log out then back in.
2. Move System Configuration Files
(Note: You will have to reestablish your network connections settings.)
Go to /Library/Preferences
Move the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop.
Restart your Mac. (Note: OS X will rebuild the files that are now sitting on your desktop. If this doesn't resolve the issue, you can move the folder back to it's original location.)

Need to reset Admin password to my Envy 4360 AIO Offiejet

I have an Envoy 4360 Wireless AIO Officejet eprint printer that I need to reset the Admin password upon in the contrl panel if possible . Forge my Admin password that I set through the Web Portal, using in MAC OS X Yosemite 10.10.4 Any help will be appreciated! Rickll110

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I noticed that you need to reset the Admin password to your HP Officejet 4630 printer. I am happy to look into this for you! I would recommend to restore the network settings to the default settings: Press the Wireless button to access the Wireless Status
menu.Press the button next to Settings to access the Wireless
Settings menu.Select Restore Defaults.Confirm the selection to restore defaults. You should then be able to login in with username: admin and the password is left blank. For future reference, here, is your printer's user guide. Hope this information is helpful, and thank you for posting! “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

Unable to reset admin password

Hope to get some help as this is driving me crazy.
I purchased a used iMac. It has the latest V. of Snow Leopard installed. Wanted to install Mavericks but it won't accept the Admin password. (There was none) I booted from the original Snow Leopard disk and made a password. Should have done it, but it still wouldn't accept it. Went back and reset the firmware password also. Still won't accept it.
Next I tried to reset from System Pref's > Accounts but it also wants the password. Oddly enough, after setting the new password the computer requires it for startup and does accept it there. Why would it recognize the password for startup but nowhere else.
Now, a new problem popped up; I can't boot up with the Snow Leopard original installation disk either by depressing the "C" key, or holding down "Options". The C key does nothing and the computer simply starts and asks for the password, then goes on to complete the opening. The option key brings up a gray screen with the symbol of a lock and a text entry space below that with an arrow pointing to the right. It doesn't allow anything to be entered however, and it's necessary to shut down the computer by holding in the start button as there is no other way to get out of it.
The internal superdrive works properly, and I also tried an external superdrive which works fine. The disk shows up on my desktop just fine so the drives are working, but beyond that nothing can happen as it asks for a password I seem not to have.
I've run completely out of ideas and none of the usual suggestions here are in the least bit useful. If you have any ideas please don't just repeat the stuff Apple suggests as none work. I evidently need some way to start from scratch that doesn't require the password at all.
Ted

Sounds like the previous owner enabled a firmware password. Power the machine down, remove one or more RAM modules, restart, and that should allow you to boot with the install disc. Once up an running, replace the removed RAM modules.

How to reset admin password in single user mode

How do I reset and admin password in single user mode. All the posts I have read so far dont work. I tried adding a new admin password as posted on the forums by deleting setup so it will setup like it was first time setup but that didnt work . Any suggestions would be appreciated.
The account now only has the standard user account as admin. Admin account I deleted in trying to fix this problem.

1 - Does it boot into Leopard?
2 - Does it have any important data on it that is not backed up elsewhere?
It it boots into Leopard you could continue using it and hope that you find your Leopard install disks later or discover some other way to overcome the lost password.
If it is fully backed up or has no important data on it you could install Tiger.
