User pass stopped working

I have my Admin account plus one User account with no password on my G4. This had worked fine until recently User account started requesting a password on log in. Noone changed anything so I was a bit surprised. I tried using my own master password which works fine in the Admin account but with no luck.
I decided to delete the User account and create a new one, again, with NO pasword. It wouldn't let me do it. Whenever I click away, a password appears. I can even change it and it seems like it is accepting it but when I log out of the Admin account and try loging back in as a User, nothing works.
Any ideas what could be wrong?

Try this:
Open Applications/Utilities/Net Info Manager
Unlock to make changes (lock is in bottom left side of the window)
navigate: /users/'your bad user'
In lower part of the window you have the settings for this user. Go to password and just erase what's there.
Restart again and see what happens.

  • User has stopped working

    Hello, my user has stopped working I've reset the password for the user twice and still not working.

    +But before all of that, I wanted to note that I created a new user account and was able to access iTunes that way.+
    Up until now you've been working through techniques for troubleshooting System-wide problems. But that fact you relate about the user accounts indicates that you've got a user-account-specific problem, and the troubleshooting techniques are different for those.
    In your normal user account, try the techniques listed under "User-specific Troubleshooting" in the following document:

  • Applying filter to 'Other Users' has stopped working (v1.0.0.15.57)

    With no apparant reason (or changes to my workstation), the apply filter feature to limit 'Other Users' has stopped working. The problem began on the day that SQLDev failed to display the navigation frame.
    I've got the nav frame back, but the filter on 'Other Users' still doesn't work.
    Can anyone tell me where the filter entries are stored?
    Oh, what's worse, the initial display of 'Other Users' does not include the entire list. Today the 'Show more/All users' failed to expand the list to all users. One of the users not initially displayed owns files to which I need access. (The solution was to stop and restart SQLDev - but that is a pain is the a$$.)

    Editing preference files is not supported. Doing so can corrupt the settings and cause SQL Developer to run improperly.
    Okay, having gotten that out of the way, let me see if I can help you get this sorted out. The filters are stored inside the preferences.xml file, located under jdev\system\oracle.onlinedb.11.0.0.37.42.
    The first step is to back up this file. Once you have done that, you can try to remove the filter info. The preferences in the file are stored as keys and values. Search for the key with the text 'ConnectionOptions'. Under the value element associated with this key, there should be a filterMap element. This element contains all of the navigator filters. Each filter will look like this:
    <Item>
    <Key>&lt;others>@local</Key>
    <Value class="oracle.jdeveloper.cm.dt.browser.SchemaFolderFilter">
    <filter>
    <Item>FOO</Item>
    <Item>SYS</Item>
    <Item>SYSTEM</Item>
    </filter>
    <visibleObjectsOnly>false</visibleObjectsOnly>
    </Value>
    </Item>
    In this case, this is a filter on the Other Users folder. To clear the filter, remove the entire item element (that is, delete everything between and including the <item> and </item>.
    This should restore the navigator filter back to its initial state (that is, no filter).
    Let me know if this doesn't work, and I'll come up with some other things to try.

  • User Interface stopped working after adding existing project

    Hi, I've just created a new User Interface for one of our service beans. To do this, I created one application (called UserInterface) with one project (also called UserInterface), this project uses JSF JSPs to get the GUI. On its own, this project works fine. But whenever I add existing projects to the application, the UserInterface stops working. I right-click my jspx page, choose run and all I get is an empty page. The point is, the UserInterface should get connected to the service bean that's in the second project (ContentServices), so somehow I have to add the project to the application, don't I?
    Sorry for being a little vague about this but I don't know quite what to ask and where to search for... can someone give me a hard push in the right direction?

    Found it with some help from a colleague. The new project contained a library with some jars that had the same name as some jars that were in the old project. Those didn't really mix well together :-)

  • Hp Simple Pass stopped working Pavilion dv7 4183cl

    the HP SimplePass on our Pavilion dv7 laptop has stopped working properly - when I scan my fingerprint it takes me to Google.com for every location I have set up instead of going to the correct location - this just started a few days ago.  When I check the login and location information it's correct but it will not take me anywhere but Google.com - any ideas on what is going on here? 

    Hello Rsculthor,
    Your simple pass is not working correctly.
    You may have had an update come through the system that corrupted the software.
    Since it has not been to long since the problem started, you can run a system restore.
    This will take the system back to when everything was working correctly without affecting your personal files.
    Here is a link on how to do a restore.
    Let me know how everything goes.

  • Simple pass stopped working

    the simple pass works for the logon screen but has stopped working on the webpages where i have the password saved, it worked last night but today its not working at all how do i fix this

    tessiss
    I am sorry you are having problems.
    If your system happens to be an upgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1, then the failure may be one of the casualties of running a hybrid File System.   This is a personal opinion and it is based on personal experience.  Others may have a different opinion.
    The System Restore frequently performs better in Safe Mode.
    System Restore Overview
    In case you missed these instructions in the document above, the following provides suggestions of what to do when System Restore fails:
    Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8)
    Native FingerPrint Logon
    The Native Windows Logon should still be on the system - it is separate from the HP SimplePass program.  As long as you did not remove / uninstall the BIOMETRICS  sign-in options, that is, you did not remove any except the HP SimplePass program from Programs and Features, then the Native Windows Logon is still intact. 
    Understand that the Validity Software in Programs and Features is indeed part of Windows software and should not be removed.
    You have, at this point, reinstalled your Validity Sensor Driver into your Device Manager -- that, along with the Biometrics sign-in options should be sufficient for the Native logon.
    Windows key > type anywhere pc > click on PC Settings > Accounts > Sign-in Options
    HP SimplePass Versions
    The version 6.x HP SimplePass provided in the document is the latest in the Series 6:
    sp63224 HP SimplePass V6.0.100.276 Win7-8
    If you prefer, there are older versions available - although in most cases, it is recommended you do not run any version older than   sp61399 HP SimplePass V6.0.100.272 Win7-8
    Series 8 HP SimplePass is a different program.  The algorithms used to encrypt the passwords is completely different; the programs are hostile to one another -- you are correct in thinking these are not the same thing.  You can run one Series OR the other Series but you cannot have both programs on the computer at the same time.
    I cannot force the Restore Point to work if it won't although I do wonder at the failure in the academic sense.  These are not questions to which I need answers -- you might consider the answers for your own purposes in determinng how to use System Restore in the Future:
    Is the system an Upgrade? 
    Was the system completely quiescent (no programs running) at the time you created the Restore point? 
    Were you connected to AC Power?
    Are the Windows Updates current?
    Is your HP 3D DriveGuard Driver installed and current?
    Unfortunately, I do not have a solution. 
    Should I think of anything that I have not included in the Instructions to Upgrade HP SimplePass , I will post back.
    Click the Kudos Thumbs-Up to say Thank You!
    And...Click Accept as Solution when my Answer provides a Fix or Workaround!
    I am pleased to provide assistance on behalf of HP. I do not work for HP.

  • User-Exits stop working in automated purchase order creation

    Dear all,
    we used to create sales orders with transaction VA01 and then separately call ME21N to create a purchase order.
    In saving the purchase order we activated user-exit EXIT_SAPMM06E_012 to process some extra logic we need here.
    Now we changed to process for SAP to automatically create the purchase order (to eventually be able to automate the entire process, including sales order creation). Ever since we did that, the user exit is not called any more!
    Does anyone know why? If I manually open ME22N and save the PO, it works! We have to find a way to run the logic in the user-exit during automated PO creation just for the volume of orders.
    Besides that, we're still looking for a convenient way to update PO confirmations using a BAPI or other function module.
    Thanks for your help!
    regards,
              Johannes.

    Good question
    User-exit may not work as the function modules [ and not ME21N ] called in the Sales Order --> Purchase Req --> Purchase Order process may not call the enjoy user-exits.
    Further, this process of automated PO works on Business Obejct event trigger.
    So a event is triggered [ ALECREATED ] on Sales Order Business at the time of Sales Order Creation.
    This event is linked with a function module  called PUR_ORDER_CREATE_VIA_SD_EVENT.
    similarly for change it is PUR_ORDER_CHANGE_VIA_SD_EVENT.
    If you go through the FM code, you can make out how to utilize this FM as user-exit.
    However you need to make the change in this FM after copying the related function group to a Z one. And then change the event linkage accordinlgy to call the new FM.
    See Business Workflow --> Events section..
    If you are not sure about how to do the event linkage then ask it in BPM section...[ They will request you to get lost ...no no ..they didn't do it to me ..just kidding ]
    Cheers,

    Hi m21000,
    Sounds like you have tried all the steps in the troubleshooting article but the last.
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
    Contact the developer
    If you see the issue again, contact the developer of the app for help:
    Find the app in the App Store.
    Tap the app and tap Reviews.
    Tap App Support.
    Maybe they can help.

  • After Tiger to Leopard conversion shared user folders stopped working

    Hi,
    Today i updated our mailserver to leopard. This server is also the OD master. Directly updated to 10.5.1 to have the latest bugfixes. Most things seem to work ok, but somehow our shared folders are not visible anymore. Checked the rights on them with cyradm and those are still good. When opening the account in thunderbird i can see the boxes but i cannot select them (can chose to subscribe / unsubscribe though). Has anybody else experienced this or know the answer to this problem?
    Best regards,
    Eelco

    since i am testing leopard server with tiger and leopard clients i just noticed this problem seems somehow related to mail 3.1 accessing IMAP ACLs differently to mail 2.x, as tiger client to leopard server works fine in picking up shared imap folders.
    result: atm assigning ACLs individually seems to be the only way to share imap folders... ;0(
    any ideas on how to make group ACLs work again would be highly appreciated.

    - uninstalled the program
    - used CCClean to cleanup registry (and other stuff)
    - reboot and logon with secondary userprofile
    - used CCClean to cleanup registry (and other stuff)
    - reboot and logon again with primary userprofile
    - install the webcam software
    - reboot and logon with primary userprofile
    - test webcamsoft, it works
    - reboot and logon with secondary userprofile
    - webcam still doesn't work
    any suggestions???

    Hi,
    You can try to change the Lync Profile name. After you do it, Lync will create a new Profile. The Lync Profile path is following:
    %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync
    If the issue persists, please repair Office 2013 and then test again.

    Iphoto on my macbook pro has stopped working. It comes up with a message saying that the library is either being used by another user or it is unreadable. Any ideas why I should be receiving this message?
    "Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable"
    Offered solution doesn't work:
    Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command keys pressed. You can also try restoring your photo library from a backup.
    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    I can't download photographs from my iphone or my digital camera.
    Any ideas on how I can solve this problem?
    There is a possibility that when I went to update applications that I started to install Mavericks which I then interrupted and cancelled. I am not definite that this caused this problem but it was at about the same time as when this problem started.
    Many thanks,
    Ed

    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    You can't "copy" your photos to the "library manager", there is just no way to any such thing.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Home Sharing stops working with fast user switching

    I have a late 2013 iMac running Mavericks.  The main account has my iTunes library with Home Sharing enabled.  The AppleTVs and IOS devices can see the Home Share and it works well.   But, it stops working when user accounts are accessed on the Mac.
    For instance, as soon as I select "Login Window..." from the fast user switching menu, the share is lost.  I did not log out, iTunes is still running.  I simply showed the login window.  All IOS and ATVs loose the share.  Switching to another user also stops the share.  It's as if iTunes is completed halted and not allowed to run in the background.
    When moving from the login screen back to the user account where the iTunes library is located, the home share is restored.  Likewise, moving from a 2nd user account back to the main account where iTunes is runnning restores the home share.
    I have a MacPro running Mountain Lion, and it works fine.  The iTunes library is always available for the devices, even if multiple users are signed into the Mac, or if the Mac is on the login screen.
    Any work around for Mavericks?  It competely breaks the entire media ecosystem if every device looses the home share if someone tries to use their account on the Mac.

    And just like that I may have found the solution! IT suddenly occured to me that one of the settings that got changed when we imported my wife's profile was a change to the sleep settings. Previously, I had had my iMac set to never go to sleep, since it shares our media with the rest of the house and runs eyeTV to record TV shows and such. For a little while after my wife's account was imported the settings to changes so that the computer would go to sleep after 15 minutes. I'm not totally sure why, but I think having that set up somehow meant that when we switched accounts my other account just "went to sleep" and therefore stopped sharing the iTunes library. After I noticed the change and switched the computer back to "never" for sleep the problem seems to have stopped.
    So perhaps check your sleep settings? That seems to be the only change I can think of that got things working correclty for me. I'll keep digging though and see if I can find any more helpful info. Good luck!

  • I have a user getting an error Adobe Acrobat has stopped working  how do I resolve this?

    Adobe Acrobat XI Pro
    This happens at a variety of times.  Sometimes while scanning sometimes while bookmarking sometimes while adding pages from a file.
    What I have done is made sure the program was up to date, a repair install, updated scanner drivers, replace the scanner with a different model, made sure the workstation was current with MS patches.  Any suggestions would be most welcome.
    Thank you,
    Brad

    Thanks for the reply.  Sorry I wasn't clear the version is XI standard.  And I did check for updates.  The program is current.  Still a few times a day the program will crash and my user will have to start over again on the document she is working on.  Very frustrating for her and me.
    The full error is:
    Adobe Acrobat has stopped working
    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
