User stuck on "Changing Password" screen after updating expired password, Windows 8.1 Pro

Hi,
We have recently upgraded to Windows 8.1 Professional in our domain (Domain & Forest Functional Level at Windows Server 2003). I am facing an issue where, when a users' password is expired and the user changes his/her password (after being prompted)
on their Windows 8.1 workstation, the user isn't able to login. The login screen displays "Changing Password" along with the little dots going in circles.
I have tried googling for a solution without much luck. Has anyone else faced this situation and is there a fix? Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Sach

Hi Sach,
For this issue,I suggest we try using other computer to change the password.
Meanwhile,please confirm the network connectivity.

Stuck on Password Screen after update

I have just updated my Macbook Pro (2011 I think) to Yosemite, however it will not boot now. On the start I get the Password screen but it will not allow me to select any option or enter my password. I cannot bypass this screen.
Can anyone help please.
Thanks.

I have had the same issue of being unable to enter a password when the MBP comes out of sleep mode. Also; Safari and Chrome crash often. Firefox will open but I get error messages. About a third of my apps won't even open and the MacBook is running at about 60-80% of normal speed since the upgrade; It takes a long time for the MBP to find and connect to WiFi when in the past, before the upgrade, it was almost instantaneous.
This is the price we pay for upgrading within the first few days of a release. By default we have become beta testers for Apple.

Windows 8.1 store stuck in the loading screen after update 1. pls help me!!

I also tried to re-register the store but still its stuck in the loading screen ! pls someone help me!!. its not working after the update 1. I can't download any apps

Hi,
How did you re-register store? Is there any error message when you couldn't open Store?
To resolve store opening problem, firstly, you can try to use WSRESET command to clear store cache for test.
Secondly, try to use APP Troubleshooter to fix this problem.

Stuck at the "apple screen" after update and restore

I updated my iPhone 4 today to the iOS 7 version, everything went ok, after that i did the "Restore from Backup" option through iTunes, and all went fine.
After it finished the restore the iPhone made a restart, then turned on the apple screen, and after a few seconds apeard a line beneth the apple, it started to fill it in, and when it got to ~70-80% it stucked, for ~30 min already.....
I'v tried to restart the device, and its making the same thing, tried to connect to iTunes and make restore again, and it fails because the iPone is "Busy" with god knows what.....
Any solution for this problem????
thx in advance for any kind of help!

You can get no support on this forum. Since you have iOS 7, you're either a developer (in which case, per your NDA you must post in the Developer Forums) or a thief.

HT201263 Since my iPhone 4S was stuck on the connect to iTunes screen after updating to iOS 7, I followed these instructions and restored. But nothing changed! I still have the same picture of a plug with arrow to iTunes.

It is restored now. Thanks for the comment about disabling firewalls - we did that and tried again and it worked.

New iMac is stuck on grey apple screen after restart from Migration Assistant

New iMac is stuck on grey apple screen after startup. It is a 3.4GHz Quad-core Intel Core i5 running OS 10.9.4. The problem occurred after a migration from my older 2009 iMac which is running Snow Leopard 10.6.6. When the restart occurred from Migration Assistant, the new computer will not boot up to the login screen. Disk utility did not solve problem. Followed instructions for a soft reinstall of Mavericks but that also did not solve problem. Any suggestions?

Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
Step 1
The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
Step 2
If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
Step 3
Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
Step 4
If you use a wireless keyboard, trackpad, or mouse, replace or recharge the batteries. The battery level shown in the Bluetooth menu item may not be accurate.
Step 5
If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
Step 6
Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
Step 7
If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 11. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
Step 8
Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
Step 9
If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.
Step 10
Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
Step 11
Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
Step 12
This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
Step 13
If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

If you do not have a computer with iTunes running on it, then make an Apple Genius appointment at your nearest Apple Store, or Authorized Apple Support center. If you do not have one of those near by, a friend with iTunes installed.

Did my HD just crash and unrecoverable? Time to replace my notebook?

I believe your hard drive has failed. Hope you have a backup.

M5400 - Black screen after updating BIOS

As the title says, I've got this unwanted black screen after updating BIOS with update utility from here http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds037429
What I've tried :
- power / battery out, pressing power button several times for short / long and longer time
- BIOS battery out for about half an hour
- wincrisis with USB bootable stick and BIOS extracted from BIOS update utility from support.lenovo
- different combinations of keys such as : FN + B / F / R +/- win key
What should I do next except finding a hammer ?

Hey,
I am having the same problem, I was updating my bios.. followed all directions which is necessary to update them.
And then when it was almost ready it said "Bios update is not responding" so I waited... and waited because I did not want to abort it but then Vista aborted it for me.
Well at first it did not seem to be a problem but then I noticed that I could not click anything (was still in windows @ that time did not reboot yet) then I wanted to reboot but nothing worked.. Pressing off button for a time to shut down did not work.. So eventually power was out. And it shut down.
So I hooked it up again but nothing happened. Pressing the "on" button made it start.. The DVD-drive loaded for a second but... that is it just a black screen :S
Going to bring it back to the shop tomorrow.
