Update Farm account password & Service account password

Hi,
I am using one account for the farm, which is used as service and managed account and would like to update the password.
Can anyone of you provide me script or steps to update the password.
Thanks,
Nick

If you're using as a managed account, yes it will (because it updates the managed account and any services it runs). What it won't update is the Default Content Access account information (your "crawl" account) in Search or the User Profile Synchronization
connection information. You'll have to update those two manually.

I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id. Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id. How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id. Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id. How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, 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 iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished 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 you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Apps are permanently tied to the AppleID that downloaded them and cannot be transferred to another. Best thing to do is delete the apps and download those you want or need under your AppleID.

I changed my Apple ID that using an invalid email address to a new one and I am trying to update iCloud account on iPhone5 with iOS 7.1.2, and I am not able to delete iCloud account without the old password.

Many people are having probalems with this right now. The only solution I've seen that seems to consistently work is the one posted by Brackers28 here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23020591#23020591. This only works if you still have access to your old email account. If you don't, you'll have to have Apple help you reset the password for your old account so you can turn off Find My iPhone and sign into your account with your correct ID.

I have been using Itunes Apps for some time. Today I signed to Itunes to get Apps updated. Apple said I must update my account. I did that with a new password. Itunes said invalid support. Now what can I do?

What do you mean "invalid support"? What EXACTLY did it say? Did it say you had an unsupported SIM after updating the firmware on your phone?

Sometimes it is fruitless to try to "fix" a broken account on an iOS device. I would delete the account on both devices and then configure the account again from scratch.

How to remove farm account from Application Discovery and Load Balancer Service Application

Hello Community
    Using Sharpoint 2010 Server I think the reason
the User Profile Synchronization would stop is because somehow the farm
account was registered as a managed account. So I removed the farm
account from all services that ran under the farm account so that I could
run Remove-SPManagedAccount or click the Remove icon in manage service accounts
and then unregisted farm account as a managed account.
   But before I can run Remove-SPManagedAccount I need to remove it from one more
service account that uses the farm account which is:
    "Application Discovery and Load Balanceer Service Account".
    However, nothing seems to remove it from there.
    I tried :
"get-spserviceapplication | where {$_.TypeName -match "Application Discovery and Load Balancer Service Application"}
    and then
"stop-spserviceinstance "dde7fbef-b068-4687-bedb-f67230efab5a"
    amongst a host of other methods so that I could ultimately
unregister farm account as a managed account.
    But no matter what I do when I try to remove the farm account from Application Discovery
and Load Balancer Service Application
and then unregister the farm account as a managed account a message always says
"Application Discovery and Load Balancer Service Application" is using the farm account
as its service account.
    What can I do to free the farm account from Application Discovery and Load Balancer Service Application?
    Thank you
    Shabeaut

The Farm Account is always a Managed Account and can never be "unmanaged". You don't have to set the automatic password roll.

The server farm account should not be used for other services

I have created a new SharePoint Foundation 2013 Farm. I only used the Farm Configuration Wizard to create the Search Service Application, all other aspects of the Farm was created using PowerShell.
The SharePoint Health Analyzer is reporting the following error:
Title: The server farm account should not be used for other services.
Severity: 1 - Error
Category: Security
Explanation: DOMAIN\FARM_ACCOUNT, the account used for the SharePoint timer service and the central administration site, is highly privileged and should not be used for any other services on any machines in the server farm. The following services were
found to use this account: Distributed Cache Service(Windows Service)
Remedy: Browse to
http://centraladminsite:port/_admin/FarmCredentialManagement.aspx and change the account used for the services listed in the explanation. For more information about this rule, see "http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=142685".
Now I understand how to change the account used to run the Distributed Cache Service, but my query is what account should I use in the least privelage model? I have setup the following 6 accounts as per TechNet guidelines (Link)
and am not sure if one of these accounts should be used or if another account is required:
SQL Server service account
Setup user account
Server farm account
SharePoint Server Search service account
Default content access account
Application pool identity
After reviewing the TechNet article again, I don't fully understand the section titled "Service application accounts". Is the article advising me to create a seperate account for each row in the table? e.g. 1 account for Business Data Connectivity
Service, a different account for "Application Discovery and Load Balancer Service", another account for "App management" and another account for "Distributed Cache", so 4 extra accounts if I choose to install all of these services
within the Farm?
Also, what does the article mean when it says "Plan one set of an application pool and proxy group for each service application that you plan to implement."? How do I go about doing this?

Inder: Yes, It is suggested to have multiple service account for each service application. This increases security and dependencyof 1 account on multiple Service applications. Like below
SQL Server service
Local System account (default)
Setup user
Member of the Administrators group on the local computer
Server farm
Network Service (default)
No manual configuration is necessary.
SharePoint Server Search Service
By default, this account runs as the Local System account.
If you want to crawl remote content by changing the default content access account or by using crawl rules, change this to a domain user account. If you do not change this account to a domain user account, you cannot change the default content access account
to a domain user account or add crawl rules to crawl this content. This restriction is designed to prevent elevation of privilege for any other process running as the Local System account.
Default Content Access
No manual configuration is necessary if this account is only crawling local farm content. If you want to crawl remote content by using crawl rules, change this to a domain user account, and apply the requirements listed for a server farm.
Content Access
Same requirement as the default content access account.
Profile import Default Access
Same requirements as server farm.
Excel Services Unattended Service
Must be a domain user account.

Also, what does the article mean when it says "Plan one set of an application pool and proxy group for each service application that you plan to implement."? How do I go about doing this?
Inder: Each service account has a application pool and you can plan to use same application pool for multiple
service accounts if required. These application pool are then consumed by proxy connection
of each service application. On service application pool, you can see all the service applications and its proxy connection.

I've been charged twice for "Kingdoms at War" A Thinking Ape but I didn't purchase it. I just updated my account info, thinking that the issue had be resolved in 02/2012 only to find it charged to my account again. How do I get this charge removed?

Back in 02/2012 I was charged twice for "Kingdoms at War" , 200 Nobility points, A thinking Ape. I didn't order this. I have changed my password twice. I just updated my account info to use ITunes for downloading music and a charge for $39.98 was taken from my account for this again. In researching this, it appears that "Kingdoms at War" is a free app. . . so someone must have accessed my account to purchase gold. . . or ITunes erred. How do I get this resolved? I would like to use ITunes without being forced to pay this $39.98.

TS1702 How do change the old Apple ID username and password to the updated username and password for the apps store?

How do you change the old Apple ID username and password to the updated username and password in order to get updated apps from the app store?

cbkitche wrote:

Do you mean you kept the same account but you only updated your AppleID?
Just log out and log back in with new ID.
Note that the AppleID is embedded into the item at purchase and cannot be changed.
However, when you change your AppleID, it will link the old account name to the new account name so you will not have any problems updating apps using the new AppleID.

Thanks for the details, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When using the Droid RAZR M and default email client, Hotmail passwords can be updated more efficiently by completely removing http://vz.to/1FgwQ3a readding http://vz.to/1FgwQ3m the email account.

After updating office365's password, can't login outlook, always let you input password again and again

Dear all,
This is a real issue in working. User uses win7 and Outlook2007.
The issue is that after updating office365's password, users can't login outlook, always let you input password again and again. Sometimes, we can fix the issue by deleting current outlook profile then create a new one. But sometimes the method can't work.
What is the root reason?
Many thanks,
Franklin hong

Hi Franklin,
Firstly, please make sure you can access the mailbox with the new Password in OWA. Then check your Account settings in Outlook 2007:
Click Tools > Account Settings. In the E-mail tab, double click the Exchange account. Click More Settings > Security > Select Negotiate Authentication > OK.
Please try to clean up the cached credential in your computer. Then fill in with the format of UPN when it prompted for credentials next time and check the Remember my credential to save it. About how to remove cached credentials, please follow these steps:
1. Launch the Credential Manager from Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Credential Manager.
2. In the Generic Credentials section you’ll see a setting for [MS Outlook] which will include your SSO details. Click the downward-pointing arrow to the right of that value.
3. In the expand details, click Remove from vault. Then Outlook will no longer have a stored copy of your password.
Thanks,
Winnie Liang

On my iphone 4s, with the ios 7 update why icloud password is always asked every 3-4 minutes

on my iphone 4s, with the ios 7 update why icloud password is always asked every 3-4 minutes? I'm getting crazy.

its asking you to verify your Cloud account and you should do so.
You can either do so by answering your own secret questions or asking for email to be sent to you which gives link to reset password.
Has to be 8 characters minimum and at least one Upper case and One lower case letter with one numeral
Hope this helps
