Reset password using Facebook

Help! I have been using the desktop client for quite awhile now, but cannot log in using my smartphone. Every time I try, it tells me my password is wrong. As an alternative, it asks me to use my Facebook account. I haven't tried it because it prompts me to CHANGE my Facebook password.
Finally, I got tired of month after month trying to log into Skype using my smartphone and failing, so I tried the Facebook option. I changed my Facebook password (didn't want to) successfully, and went back to the Skype app and tried to log in using the new password. Didn't work.
What am I doing wrong? Sigh.

the solution is in here (sort of)

  • Can't login even after resetting password using install disk

    I have been unable to login in using the password on this computer. Twice now I have reset the password using the install disk that came with the computer. After resetting. I quit the installer and then reboot using the computer's startup disk. When I try to login with the new password, it won't let me uses the password even though the new hint is correct. How can I solve this?

    I think you have two choices...
    Reset OS X Password Without an OS X CD...
    http://theappleblog.com/2008/06/22/reset-os-x-password-without-an-os-x-cd/
    It'll boot like a newly setup Mac, but all your stuff should still be there once filling out the stuff.
    Or, an Archive & Install, which gives you a new/old OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    Just be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings.
    But first...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Tiger Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes. (May or may not work)

  • HT4798 My password for the apple Id is somehow incorrect. But I try the same password on my iPhone App Store. How can I reset password using apple id?

    I tried to reset my password using apple Id method, but the password I typed is incorrect. I'm sure that that's the right password because I use that ID for downloading apps from my iPhone every time. So what's wrong? That's my only way I can reset my password because I forgot my master password.:(
    HELP HELP HELP

    Hi Davehov,
    What iOS is the phone running? If it is iOS 7, then as ramzee209 indicated, you must contact the seller to get any further.
    If it is running an earlier iOS, you can hook it up to the computer where you iTunes library is located, and restore it:
    Place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
    Cheers,

  • Reset password using opss code

    Hi ,
    I am trying to reset a user password in OID using the opss code. The code I am using is pasted below.
    user = oidStore.searchUser(userId);
    if (user != null) {
    oracle.security.idm.UserProfile userProfile = user.getUserProfile();
    PropertySet set = userProfile.getAllUserProperties();
    List passwordValues = userProfile.getProperty("userpassword").getValues();
    ModProperty prop =
    new ModProperty("PASSWORD", passwordValues.get(0), ModProperty.REMOVE);
    userProfile.setProperty(prop);
    String randomPassword = getRandomPassword();
    userProfile.setPassword(null, randomPassword.toCharArray());
    I got this code from a blog , but there is no such property as "userpassword" I get a null pointer in this line - userProfile.getProperty("userpassword").getValues();
    So any idea on how to reset password from OPSS code for any user?

    Which target are you using this is for direct integration with OID, are you using OIM if so why don't you use the direct api method for resetpassword ? if not check the attribute name for password attribute in OID and place it in the code.

  • Reset password using install disc

    I haven't used my iMac for years and now want to pass it on to my son.
    I don't remember my administrator password. When I start up using the install disc and go to Reset Password only the install disc is displayed.
    What do I need to do to get the hard drive Macintosh HD to display so that I can reset my password on it?
    Thanks. Jay.

    There are situations where that utility will not work, such as if there more than on admin account or if the current admin account is NOT the original admin account.  Also, it may not work if the currently installed Mac OS X system is not the version on that installation disc.
    Wouldn't it be better if you just use that install disc to run Disk Utility, erase the internal drive, and installed a fresh system?

  • TS1543 my mac wont stop at single user it continues to root, how can i get to single user to enter info needed to reset password

    I my mac wont recognise my password, i have tried to reset password using single user but my mac wont stop at single user it just continues to root, how do i get it to stop at single user so i can add info needed to reset password?

    Are your sure that wasn't a Verbose boot (Cmd-V) you were trying? That would go on to a regular boot.
    Try a PRAM Reset, then try the single user, Cmd-S, at the startup chime. For the PRAM Reset, hold down Option - Cmd - P - R all together until it chimes a total of three times, then let go to finish booting.

  • Can't reset password on eSSO-PR

    hai, all
    i have problem when i want to reset password using esso
    that's problem :
    you are not allowed to change your password
    thank's

    Hi,
    There is a setting in Active Directory that controls the minimum age of the password before a user is allowed to change it again. By default its value is 1, which means that you can change your password once a day.

  • How do you reset Password on GD mailbox on UC540

    We need to reset password used on a General Delivery mailbox which is associated with a Blast Group using CCA.
    Can anyone help as we cant find any utility within CCA that will alow this.  We are running version 3.2(3) of CCA

    Hello,
    If it is GDM it does not have a password every user which is member of the GDM ( if the GDM has been created with CCA) has option to reach it when he/she is in their own mailbox and select option 9.
    If you want to define new members just add them to the group in CCA or you may use the CUE web gui usually at 10.1.10.1 if it is the default one and add members to the GSM.
    If this is a personal mailbox but you use it as GDM then just change the password for that user could be done from both CCA and CME webgui.
    HTH,

  • HT4798 Resetting password via Apple ID (fail)

    Macbook 2010ish. I am changing my password via the Apple ID reset option, which I enabled. It's failing after I go through the process to change it (even to 1234 so I know there is no typo).
    10.7.2
    I gave this laptop to my daughter and she can login, but I now need to access a few files I left on the machine. I cannot access my account. I made my daughter an administrator and I am also an administrator. I can see that I assigned my account my Apple ID. When I try and login, I choose to reset using the Apple ID. If I enter my Apple ID successfully, I get a screen to reset my password. I reset it to 1234 or 123456 or abCd123& -- whatever. Everything fails once I submit it.
    I just need 6 files I worked on last summer (outlines) for a class I start teaching again this summer. Help!
    When I am logged in as my daughter, I can visit the Users & Groups and see my account. I have an option to change my daughter's password, but this same option is not available on my account. I checked, "Allow user to reset password using Apple ID" and "Allow user to adminster this computer." I also made sure the Apple ID listed here is the same one I have and use. But I have yet to get this to work when trying to login.

    I updated to 10.7.4 hoping that would help. Nope.
    As soon as I try and reset the password by using the Master Password or my Apple ID, it fails (wiggles to show it failed). What could be rejecting these password changing attempts?

    I am very happy to report that my server connection tech, which I called via landline, informed me to : 1. Open Tools 2. Scan down to Clear Recent History 3. Delete All. That was it! Unbelievable! Six hours of searching through the Windows catagories. I checked the results on an internet site, and viola! It was gone! Mozilla Firefox seems to remember the usernames and passwords irregardless of the option window that asks if you if want it to remember the user and password. I finally got in touch with my friend and he said he did not answer yes to the window, even though he was aware of it. No damage. I surely do appreciate everyones' concern in this, now what seems to be, a very simple solution. Cudos to Firefox! Thank-you! P.S. I now have to enter my information at the beginning of any password protected sites...no harm done! My friend is now condemned to the 'user account' site! lol...

  • How to Reset Password of User while not connected to Domain using Local Admin Account

    How to Reset Password of User while not connected to the Domain using Local Admin Account
    (I have the use of a local admin account), and I want to help a user reset their password who has logged in the PC and had their credentials cached, but forgot this password. 
    In Local Admin Account :
    When I go to Control Panel, users, users, manager user ; I cannot see any users in this window except the local admin account, and, so I cannot reset a user password this way.
    When I go to lusrmgr.msc, then users ; the local admin account will display only. 
    If I go to command prompt and type "net user", this will not display any users who have logged in to the computer, and so I cannot use "net user" to reset a password.
    I don't want to use any disks, 3rd party programs, or create a VPN connection to the domain.  I just want to help a user who calls in and forgets their password.

    Hello Keith,
    I know this is an old thread but I'm trying to better understand how I could change the domain password while not on the network. What I'm getting from your post is that you:
    1. Create a local user account (not a domain user)
    2. Login with that local user account
    3. Connect to the VPN while logged in as a local user
    4. Log out of the local account and login with the domain credentials
    Now, my question is based on the assumption that the password created on the local account is the same password that one will use to login to the domain account? Also, is the local user account the same as the domain account?
    Thanking you in advance!
