Resetting PIX 515E 'enable' password and/or Factory Reset
We have a PIX Firewall where the last user of the device had not changed the 'enable' password and username so we are locked out of the device. I did some research and found a password reset tool that was supposed to clear the 'enable' password on the device. I set up a TFTP with the 'np61.bin' file needed. I went into 'monitor>' mode, set the interface, address and server address and it pings with success. I pointed it at the file and sent the 'tftp' command. I saw it downloading and booting off the binary file and after letting it go for a little bit (I walked away for a little while and came back to my telnet prompt) I noticed it was stuck in a loop:
No bootable image in flash. Please download an image from a network server in the monitor mode
Failed to find an image to boot
Rebooting......
I downloaded a copy of the latest firmware, 'pix804-28.bin', and repeated the process used for the password reset file. After loading, I am greeted with my familiar prompt:
XXXX-XXX-Xx-Xx0-XX>
XXXX-XXX-Xx-Xx0-XX>enable
Username: pix
Password: pix
Username: pix
Password:
Username: cisco
Password: cisco
Access denied.
XXXX-XXX-Xx-Xx0-XX>
I then did a hard reset, and was stuck back in the loop I was in before, asking me to reflash a boot image. I now need to somehow load the IOS back onto the router (As it seems to just be booting from the TFTP server), and then after that still remove the enable password or somehow default the entire firewall to Factory Defaults. If anyone knows how to solve my issue or has any ideas for me to try, you help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Still having trouble with this, has no one encountered this problem before?

I can't reset my Apple ID password and not getting reset emails
I tried to reset my Apple ID password, but the reset email is going to some address other than the two in my profile. How can I reset my password or get the required email to do it myself.

Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod. . Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
- If you are up to file manipulation see the following but it may not work for iOS 6.1.3 or iOS 7

Since
the latest iOS download iCloud keeps trying to verify my account as well as keeps trying to upgrade. I can't figure out how to stop it as I also don't know my password And can't reset the iCloud PW. Any suggestions?Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
You will need to show patience with the procedure and be prepared to demonstrate without question that the account belongs to you. Don’t expect access to be restored immediately and if you aren’t the owner of the Apple ID registered to the device the account won’t be reset.

how do i delete icloud account on my ipad when my apple ID is non active email and i don't know the password and can't reset password without active email
If the iCloud account you are trying to delete is old ID that was later updated to change it to your current ID, you can go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now, if desired, you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Assuming this is an iCloud mail account, sign out of iCloud in its preference pane, then sign back in with the new password.

I keep getting 'an unexpected error occurred. Try again.' error message when trying to reconnect to my AirPort Time Capsule. I have soft and hard reset and, eventually, factory reset the device. What do I do to correct the error?

If you have a verified rescue email then you can get an email sent to that email address to reset the security questions as shown in the article below:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5312
If you do not have access to the rescue email or you do not receive the reset email then you will need to contact AppleCare for assistance:

ipad screen will not slide. Tried resetting and a factory reset but still will not work.
I have the same issue on my Ipad Air. Screen will not rotate, I have reset the settings, still only displays in the portrait mode. A couple of interesting things though. a couple of days before it completely locked up into portrait I would have to turn the ipad off and hold it in the orientation I wanted because it would not change orientation after I was in an app.
Also, I just played a Netflix video and it was in landscape mode.
Any ideas?
Thanks, -

TS2771 i forgot my password and it wont reset with new itunes
My daughter has forgotten her password and we cant reset it
each time we connect it says enter your password but we cant remember it?Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. 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 turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times. -
Have a Droid Razr M that is stuck in the reboot screen. I tried a hard reboot and a factory reset, and it still gets stuck in the reboot screen. How long should I wait for the reboot to occur until it starts back up? I tried the steps for a factory reset given on this site, but it still does not want to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello otter314!
Let's take a look into this to see if we can figure out what happened. When did this begin? What's the software version of the device? Do you remember what was happening with the device right before this started? Please supply me with some additional information, I'm happy to help with a resolution!

I lost my passwrod and my e-mail address has now changed. On the support page I cannot reset my password without my old e-mail and I cannot change my e-mail address without my password. Any thoughts?
You apparently did not migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud before 1 August? In this case your MobileMe account has been permanently deleted and all its contents lost, as was announced over a year ago.
Your signature says your Mac has 10.6.8; you cannot set up an iCloud account on that. However you can reactivate your @me.com address (though not retrieve its contents including any aliases) by going to Settings>iCloud on your iPhone (iOS5 required), signing in with your @me.com address and password, and enabling Mail in the list there.
That done, you can set up Mail manually on Snow Leopard to access your iCloud email:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
