Security / reset integrated website administrator password

Hi,
I'm using a HP Photosmart 7510 e-All-in-One - C311a (PMN: CQ877A, Firmware: VEP1CN1137CR).
While trying to setup the integrated website security administrator password, I used a generated 20 characters password.
After that, I was unable to login to the printer administrator settings with the same password. I also tried with the same password removing some characters at the end, one by one, just in case the printer password internal storage field got truncated to less than 20 characters.
I tried a Partial Reset, Semi-Full Reset, OOBE Reset, Full Reset (through what seems to be a blue boot menu) and Clear derivatives. None of these methods cleared the administrator password.
Is there any particular command or method that would allow me to gain back administrative access ?
Thank you,
This question was solved.

Hi Jay4096,
The Semi-full is the reset that would reset the password in your screenshot you provided. You will need to contact support, and let them know that the printer fails to clear the password using the Semi-full reset. You can contact our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

  • How to Reset Windows 7 Administrator Password on My Laptop

    I have windows 7 Home Premium and i forgot the administrator password. whenever i start the windows 7, it asks for the password to log in. unfortunately, i forgot it. what to do?
    I forgot the administrator's password. I'm not able to log in to windows. It says, "did you forgot the password?" whenever i try to log in. How do i reset forgotten Windows 7 admin password without losing data?

    In your
    your situation,you can recover your password form Safe Mode.Windows 7 system has a built-in administrator account that is created during Windows installation and disable by default, which has no password in it. You need to enable that account before forgetting
    your other admin account password. Otherwise your built-in administrator account won’t appear in the screen in this tip.
    Step 1: Start your win 7 computer and press “F8″ while the computer boots up. Scroll down to “Safe Mode with Command Prompt” with the arrow keys on the keyboard and press “Enter.” Your computer starts in Safe Mode with Command Prompt.
    Step 2: Select the Administrator account that appear in the screen, then enter command prompt. Type: net user ****** 123456 and enter (****** is the account name and 123456 is the new password), it will show you a message that” the command completed successfully.
    Step 3: Restart your win 7 computer, then you can log in as ****** with the password 123456. You can go to control Panel to change your account password if necessary.
    If this
    way doesn't work you can try a tool named Windows Password Recovery Tool Ultimate. 

  • Resetting a forgotten Administrator Password

    I'm helping a friend who has an iMAC G5 which currently runs Mac OS X 10.4.8, (Tiger), and has forgotten his administrator password. The original discs for this machine are Tiger Mac OS X 10.2.3. We've already tried using the install disc (disc 1). We put the disc in and restarted the system, holding down the C key when the tone was heard and continued to hold it until the spinning gear appeared. It seems to load the CD because we could hear it grind as the system started up and we noticed small file-folder icons appear in the center of the screen with a question mark, but eventually it seemed to load the OS from teh hard drive and started as usual, with a Finder window open browsing the CD. From everything we've read, we should have instead seen the installation program where we'd have the chance to reset the administrator password. Can anyone offer some advice? Thanks!

    Hi LLApple, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Yes, you should've sen the Installer, but...
    I wouldn't try changing Tiger's Passwords with a Jaguar or Panther Install Disk at all.

  • HT201240 resetting original account administrator password

    I really need help. I've somehow managed to lock myself out of my own computer and cannot remember which password I used for the administrator login? How do I reset this? I've tried going to the recovery drive and it will not open and shows a lock after pressing command +r during startup. Also I've noticed there is no chime when starting up. HELP PLEASE

    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. In the window that opens, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens. Close the Terminal window to get it out of the way.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.

  • Windows Server 2000 Advanced - Administrator Password Reset/Recovery

    I took over tech job for church that has Windows 2000 advanced server environment that has mirrored hard drives...Previous tech or person that installed server does not want to play nice with the administrator password and changes have to be made...I
    do have an account without administrator privileges but that does not help...so I attempted to reset or blank the administrator with a password reset disk and was not successful...when the partition mounts (while using reset disk) it shows that the
    password has been blanked (*BLANK*) but it still does not work...I've also tried putting the hard drives in a regular desktop, used the password reset disk and administrator password showed to be blanked, so I blanked it again for
    safe measure, replaced the drives in server and was still not successful...please advise

    First of all thanks for your response Amy...Yes it is the domain controller and only server for 7 users and 6 computers...and yes you were right about the DSRM password getting blanked...was able to log into DSRM with blank administrator password but
    that did me no good as I was still not able to make changes to the domain because (you may already know) Active Directory is not available in DSRM (it says to logon with domain administration rights)...my goal is to obtain domain
    administrator access in order to make changes:  add/remove users and computer account (which is the password the previous tech will not provide)...since this is such a small domain do I need restore Active Directory to reset or get domain administrator
    access? Authoritative Restore?  Which method, as a system state backup has never been done?...please advise

  • Administrator Password Required for External Drive

    I recently started to get this message when hooking up my external drive. "Device Sentry", "Security Alert!" "An Administrator password is required to allow this volume to mount."

    "If you've forgotten the Apple ID password how did you log in to make the last post?"
    Exactly! The password I used to log on here and write my post I figured was the same Apple ID password I would use to reset my computer login password. But my computer isn't recognizing it as the correct password so it wont let me update my login password. I have 2 user accounts on my computer.
    As far as the link you provided, I already looked to that for help earlier. It states:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Users & Groups, click the lock to unlock it, then provide an administrator name and password. Select a user, then click Reset Password.
    I did these steps, but I don't remember my admin password. The question is: How do I reset my admin password so I can reset my log in password.
    Is my admin password the same password I use to log onto this website to post questions? If so, like I said previously, I already reset that password and my computer isnt recognizing it.

  • How to Reset Windows 2008/R2 Domain Administrator Password

    How to Reset Windows Server 2008/R2 Domain Administrator password if forgot or lost it?
    It is annoying and bad to forget a Windows Server 2008/r2 Domain administrator login password. It is troublesome unless you have that Windows Server 2008/r2 password reset disk. We can still find several tricks to reset Windows Server Domain password but they require a mass of operations and waste a lot of time. For example, you can reset Windows Server 2008/R2 domain administrator password with an installation disk but it requires you to type a mass of command line. So today I want to share everyone an omnipotent method to reset Windows Server 2008/R2 Domain/local administrator password. You need the following 3 things.
    An accessible PC.
    A USB/CD/DVD flash drive.
    The Windows password reset tool Daossoft Windows Password Rescuer.
    Then it requires 4 steps as below:
    Step 1: Download and install Daossoft Windows Password Rescuer into that accessible computer.
    Step 2: Burn it to the flash drive.
    Step 3: Boot your Windows Server computer from the flash drive.
    Step 4: Follow its instruction and click “Reset Password” button to reset your Windows 2008/R2 Domain/Local administrator password.
    More details in this video: Windows Server 2008 R2 Password Reset - Reset Domain or Local Password.

    It wasn't difficult to reset the domain password and I think Microsoft's policy of not providing an easy forward way is to create an
    illusion of security which is not there. Linux systems that are much more secure that MSFT software allow easy password reset when physical access is there so why not include the same tools in System Repair tools or using F8?
    Anyhow, this guide helped me reset the password in 5 minutes. Read the bottom of it to find the scripted / automatic version of the process:

  • How to reset Windows 2008 R2 Domain Controller "Administrator" password?

    Hello Everyone,
    I have lost Administrator password for the following system:
    Windows 2008 R2
    Domain Controller setup on same machine
    Stand alone server - no workstations or other servers invovled
    I still have the "Directory Service Restore Password" but I don't think that helps me for lost Administrator password. I beleive I need to boot from an .iso file to gain access. I already tried "Offline NT Password & Registery Editor" and it has set
    Administrator password to (blank) but that is not allowing me access as it seems that I have to login to domain controller Administrator. So, how can I reset that password?

  • So easy to reset administrator password

    So, I found out that it is terribly and scary easy for someone with access to your laptop to reset your administrator password.  This is nice if you forget your password but really ***** if you lose your laptop or have it stolen by a thief with above average intelligence.

    Is this for real?  Is there a way to make the laptop more secure?
    Thanks,
    Alan

    Is there a way to make the laptop more secure?
    Apple's FileVault: This feature of OS X encrypts your entire drive, files and all. The only way that the drive can be unencrypted is if someone had access to your OS X user password or had access to the recovery key.  Setting up FileVault to encrypt your Mac is an easy process.   To enable it, visit System Preferences > Security & Privacy > FileVault. Once here, click the “Turn On FileVault” button. After doing this, you will be presented with a passcode.This passcode can be used to decrypt your Mac’s hard drive.  On the next screen, you have the option to store your recovery key with Apple.. After selecting your options and filling in the security information, you will be prompted to restart your Mac. This will begin the encryption process.  Upon restarting, your Mac will begin the process of encrypting your hard drive. One difference with your Mac that you will notice is the startup: on the Apple boot screen, you will now be prompted to sign into your Mac’s user account. This is due to the fact that your Mac must now decrypt the hard drive before booting into OS X.

  • Old IMAC with 10.5.6 OSX. Forgot Administrator password. Started up from OSX install disc 1 and selected password reset from utilies in Installer. But HD icon doesn't show up. (Only install disc and admin root available:no good). What can I do?

    Old IMAC with 10.5.6 OSX. Forgot Administrator password (which I had already changed.) Followed instructions as per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274
    Started up from the original OSX install disc 1 and selected "Password reset" from "utilies" in Installer. But HD icon doesn't show up. (Only install disc and admin root available:no good as the support website underscores: Important: Do not select "System Administrator (root)". This is actually the root user. You should not confuse it with a normal administrator account.).
    What can I do?
    Thanks for your suggestions. Antonio
