Resetting username password in OS9.1 without a CD drive?

Hello anybody. HELP!
I have been running a ppc7100 with a 450MHZ G4 upgrade for the last 15 years.
I have inadvertantly activated 'multiple user' and now when I boot up its asking me for my user password.... which i forgot about 10 years ago.
I know I could reset this if I could boot from my 9.1 OS disks.
Problem is my CDR drive is broken and I can't boot from a CD.
Anyone know any solutions?
15 years of data inaccessible because of one silly error. AAAgh
If anyone has any ideas?

Hi, MGoldUser -
It is not necessary to boot to nor otherwise use an OS 9 Install CD in order to clear that problem. If you have the ability to boot to any other volume, such as an external drive, do so. Then go into the Preferences folder in System Folder on your main hard drive, locate the file named Multi-User Prefs and throw it away. Empty the Trash. Then do a normal restart to your internal drive. Trashing that single file will clear all Multiple User password settings and requests.
You may be able to do that by starting with Extensions Off (holding down Shift during booting), but that's doubtful.
You can also try using the Extensions Manager intercept - upon booting, immediately press the spacebar, keep it held down until Extensions Manager opens. If this works (doubtful), Extensions Manager will open just before extensions would normally start to load, at which time you can then disable Multiple Users.

  • Reset Username / PAssword for FAS270

    Hi Guys, I am new here and I just created my account days ago. I was ask to configure an FAS 270c and DS14-MK2 here at the office. I am also new to this technology, but I was able to have it up and running last week without error based on the LED's of the machine, both FAS270 and DS-14 My porblems is that, I am prompted by a username and password which the people here does not know about. My question is, How can you or I reset the username/password combination of an ONTAP system. Hope to hear from you on this matter. Thanks very much in advance. Jose Eliazar Bayaton

    The only way I know how to change a root password is to reboot the filer. You can just power cycle the filer since you can't login to type reboot.Press Ctrl-C to display the boot menu when prompted to do so.The storage system displays thefollowing boot menu:1) Normal Boot2) Boot without /etc/rc3) Change Password4) Initialize all disks4a) Same as option 4, but create aflexible root volume.5) Maintenance mode bootSelection (1-5)?Choose 3 to change root password...I would also set security options forpasswords like:options security.passwd.rules.maximum 14options security.passwd.rules.minimum.alphabetic 6I hope this is helps

    I have searched the forum to my level best without clear solution
    Regards
    Sadock

    Hi gurus
    I don't believe if this is missing solution from oracle community. I have decided to installed the collction agent and source database in linux system, so now both auditt vault server and collction agent are running in Linux system (but separately)
    I am wondering, avorcldb add_collector -srcname ORCL -agentname avagent01 -colltype DBAUD and  avorcldb add_collector -srcname ORCL -agentname avagent01 -colltype OSAUD -orclhome /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1 are working fine and  I am able to start these collectors
    The  avorcldb verify -src Lugaosrv:1521:ORCL.LUGAOSRV -colltype ALL command also return good results
    [oracle@avsrv ~]$ avorcldb verify -src Lugaosrv:1521:ORCL.LUGAOSRV -colltype ALL
    Enter Source user name: srcuser_ora01
    Enter Source password:          
    source ORCL.LUGAOSRV verified for OS File Audit Collector collector
    source ORCL.LUGAOSRV verified for Aud$/FGA_LOG$ Audit Collector collector
    source ORCL.LUGAOSRV verified for REDO Log Audit Collector collector
    [oracle@avsrv ~]$
    The problem still I am facing is when attempting to add REDO collector. In fact the collector is added successful and i can see it even on EM console.
    [oracle@avsrv ~]$ avorcldb add_collector -srcname ORCL -agentname avagent01 -colltype REDO -av Lugaosrv:1521:ORCL.LUGAOSRV
    source ORCL verified for REDO Log Audit Collector collector
    Adding collector...
    Collector added successfully.
    remember the following information for use in avctl
    Collector name (collname): REDO_Collector
    initializing REDO Collector
    ERROR: could not get AV source user connection using jdbc:oracle:oci:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=Lugaosrv)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=ORCL.LUGAOSRV)))
    ERROR: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
    [oracle@avsrv ~]$
    Any help will be appreciated

  • System copy : ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

    Hello SAPiens,
    I have to perform a system copy of Bank analyzer 6, NW7.1, ABAP stack only on AIX 5.3, MCOD oracle 10.2.0.4 DB. I'm arriving to the sapinst parameters screen asking for the securestore key. The key is accepted, then it asks for the JAVA components DVD. An issue occurs after this step (JVM is uncompressed then tries to access the DB). Here is th UTL_load_usage :

    Aug 20, 2010 5:51:53 PM  Info   : Severe (database) error. Return code: 64
    I guess sapinst retreives the connection data from the securestore, but fails using it...
    The DB is up and running. I checked Oracle users, none of them are locked.
    Can anyone kindly advice or provide a search path for shooting this issue ?
    Thank you already,
    Eric

    Hello Kiran,
    Thank you for your advice.

    The key phrase is correct.
    I guess sapinst is retrieving the DB  password from the securestore, tries to connect but gives back the incorrect password error message. But how can that DB password be incorrect if the system is up and running?
    What is the DB user name sapinst retreives from the securestore ?
    Kind regards,

  • Why can't I reset the master password with the option of removing all username:passwords by unchecking "Use Master Password"?

    Why can't I reset the master password with the option of removing all username:passwords by unchecking "Use Master Password"? Currently, there seems to only be the option to issue a "chrome:" command in URL which DOES reset the master password. However, it was something that I had to google. The intuitive option would be to uncheck the "Use Master Password" checkbox, receive a verification dialogue, and blammo, password reset. Please make this a feature, thank you.

    ''cor-el [[#answer-702776|said]]''
    <blockquote>
    You can remove all password in the Show Passwords dialog.
    That is where you manage the passwords.
    The master password is only for protecting the passwords with an extra level of encryption and has nothing to do with erasing passwords apart from resetting the MP in case you have forgotten the MP and can't open "Show passwords".
    </blockquote>
    Sorry, for being unclear. Essentially this is a feature request for an option under Firefox options (why not?) to reset my Master Password not knowing the Master Password. For Security reasons I understand why all the saved passwords have to be wiped, but wiping the Master Password (having forgotten it) should be an option without having to issue an arcane command that one has to google to figure out.

  • Why does the iTunes AppleID system refuse to work properly without the need to reset the password every time I open iTunes for use?

    Alright so here is the issue. When I first started using iTunes I created my AppleID. I locked it in to remember my password and authorize my computer so that I would NEVER HAVE TO ENTER IT AGAIN. So years pass, no problem. Then "ITUNES 11" come on everyone lets upgrade or you can't proper use the iTunes Store. Seriously it wouldn't let me access the store. Go Figure. So I upgrade simple right? No. It really isn't when iTunes 11 rolled out it was riddled with minor bugs that made the experience annoying so I did a rollback and live without the store for awhile.
    About a year passes and I try again this time upgrading iTunes through a COMPLETE fresh install, again I did what had done the first time I logged my AppleID and reauthorized my computer. Hurrah other than getting use to the new UI it ran perfectly. Yes Finally! Right? Again.... No. No more than 2 or 3 software updates later suddenly my password for my AppleID is incorrect I was like "Okay?" and re-entered it thinking the big update cleared my settings.
    Wrong Password please reset password to continue using the iTunes store.
    I was like okay maybe the user agreement change and we all need to reset passwords and re-accept the EUA. So I go through the process to create a new password successfully and reset my AppleID in iTunes with the new password. Come back a few weeks later it happens again this time I enter my new password and what do I get?
    Wrong Password please reset password to continue using the iTunes store.
    So I first do a repair install to my iTunes than reset my password this time NOT setting it to remember password. Great everything works fine again password even matched my Home CompID so that I could NEVER lose it well come a few days later I try to use the store and what happens?
    Wrong Password please reset password to continue using the iTunes store.
    to try to make my Long story a little shorter....
    This has been going on for the better part of 3 years I have almost completely dropped iTunes which has the better store library for Goggle Play Music who's store library isn't even a third the size iTunes has because their system works and my log-in is my e-mail. I repeatedly completely uninstalled iTunes and wiped it from my registry in hope a clean install would fix the problem but it never does.
    My OS is Vista Home Premium Edition 32-bit and no picking on my OS I been working to get a new computer but that isn't happening anytime soon so I work with what I got.

    Even removing the .xml files doesn't make a difference. Also, I now installed another update of iTunes, but still having the same problem, and this time there are no .xml files or preference files whatsoever in the Application Data and Local Settings\Application Data iTunes folders. It seems like for some reason iTunes is unable to create these. What should I do?

  • It keeps saying my username or password is wrong no matter how many times I reset my password.

    Hi there, please help. I am an existing Spotify user who was on PC. Then I moved to Macbook and just install spotify on my both iPad and macbook. I logged in the first time it said wrong username or password. Thereafter I have reset my password few times and restall the apps on both machines and I still can't login - the same message of wrong username and password keeps coming up. What can I do? Appreciate your advise. Thank you

    Did you follow this setup procedure? http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    Also do you have a valid Apple ID, usually a [email protected] e-mail address?

  • My iPhone has my old email set up throught iCloud. How do I reset my new username with the device without deleting everything. And if I have to delete my old account, will everything (contacts, pictures, games, apps, etc.) be erased from my phone.

    My iPhone has my old email set up throught iCloud. How do I reset my new username with the device without deleting everything. And if I have to delete my old account, will everything (contacts, pictures, games, apps, etc.) be erased from my phone.

    Your old ID connects to an icloud account containing all your data (email, contacts, etc.)  If you then use a different ID, you will connect to a different account, which results in losing all your "apple" data, like emails, contacts, calendars, etc.
    However, Apple IDs are also used to connect to an itunes store account, with is different.  You can keep using the old itunes store ID to keep all your purchases (but if you change to a different ID, you will lose all purchased items) and use the new ID for icloud (but losing emails, contacts, etc. from the old account).

  • Trying to reset administrator password by using the Mac OS X Install disc to reset but it won't allow me to without original administrator password. Frustrating.

    Trying to reset administrator name/password by using the Mac OS X Install disc to reset but it won't allow me to without original administrator name/password. Frustrating. Reason I'm trying to reset is that it seems to be not recognising the administrator name as have changed password in System Preferences - Accounts.
    PowerMac, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

    Here's the instructions if you have the discs.
    *Mac OS X: Changing or resetting an account password*
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274?viewlocale=en_US
    Changing your administrator password
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh655.html
    Here's one method to reset the password without the install disc:
    1. boot computer and hold the "apple" key and the "s" key.
    2. wait for terminal show
    3. release keys
    4. type without the quotes: "/sbin/mount -uaw"
    5. press enter
    6. type without the quotes: "rm /var/db/.applesetupdone
    7. press enter
    8. type without the quotes: "reboot"
    9. press enter
    This will let you create a new admin account when you reboot your computer.
    Also, without the discs, look at Mac OS X Tip - No Password, No Root, No CD? No Problem.
    http://www.macobserver.com/tip/2003/06/16.1.shtml
    Without the discs, try this (OS 10.5 only). *How to Reset User Password via single user mode*
    http://macosx.com/forums/howto-faqs/300019-howto-reset-user-password-via-single- user-mode.html
    Here is a way to get around not knowing the admin password on Macs.
    To reset your OS X password without an OS X CD you need to enter terminal and create a new admin account:
       1. Reboot
       2. Hold apple + s down after you hear the chime.
       3. When you get text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
              * mount -uw /
              * rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
              * shutdown -h now
       4. After rebooting you should have a brand new admin account. When you login as the new admin you can simply delete the old one and you’re good to go again!

  • HT5538 Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password

    Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password, the problem happens also with iMessage . Please help

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa

  • I want to change my password but the system is not sending me message to reset my password. pls help someone is using my password without my permission and i want to change my password.

    i want to change my password but the system is not sending me message to reset my password. pls help someone is using my password without my permission and i want to change my password.

    If you are talking about your Apple ID password, make sure it IS your apple ID.
    In the past 24 hours, I have received two emails "How to reset your Apple ID password". I  had not requested any change and I finally realized someone else is trying to reset the password. I have had this Apple ID since 2009 so I am not using someone else's ID.
    Again, if you are not receiving the email to reset make sure you have the right ID - it might be going to the email linked to the account, and it might not be yours.

    Then restore via iTunes. The iOS device will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store   
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
