Warning - Password more than 8 characters - change your password!

I didn't see this notice until after I had installed 10.5 and it took hours to correct the problem. Open the 10.5 install disk, go to Utilities, go to Change Password and insert a new short password. If it is too late and you cannot log on, check the notices from Apple and follow the instruction very, very carefully. The instructions from Apple omitted the final word in one line. When I entered the incomplete line, my computer responded with the correct line and I went back and started over again.

Prevent user from resetting password more than once in a day

Hi,
1) my requirement is that, i want to prevent a user from resetting his password more than once in a day in OIM 11g.
i guess that has to be implemented using a pre-process event handler on reset password page.
is that achieveable? i dont have much idea on which places i can attach a pre-process event handler to.
2) I want to restrict a user from using sequential passwords. eg: abhi1, abhi2, abhi3
This is not present OOTB. just want to know. can we do it via custom code.? but this will expose that password (security breach- which i dont want)
is there any way i can achieve this via configurations in OIM or some event handler.?
Thanks in advance.

1.yes, update "Minimum Password Age" to 1 for the password policy.
2. you can't achieve this by configuration. But, yes write an event handler and put your validation there. probably this is required on manual create or update so use pre-insert and pre-update eventhandler for validation.

The password for the account "account name" was not changed. Your system administrator may not allow you to change your password or there was some other problem with your password. Contact your system administrator for help.

I have a user who's Active Directory password is going to expire. I had her reset her password by going to apple > system prefs > user > and clicking change password. She received the error "The password for the account "account name" was not changed. Your system administrator may not allow you to change your password or there was some other problem with your password. Contact your system administrator for help."
I had her change her password via the kpasswd command in terminal and that changed her password on the server sucessfully however the laptop has FileVault on it. Filevault is not recognizing the new password just the old password.
I have deleted the keychain which didn't resolve and now I am going to decrypt and reencrypt the drive. I'm hoping this is an isolated issue I have over 25 laptops configured like this.

I "think" the trick was unbinding and rebinding the computer account.
After unencrypting and trying to reencrypt Filevault would still not take the new password.
Rebooted the prompt to update the keychain appeared. Updated the keychain. Filevault would still not take the new password.
Unbinded and rebinded the computer account. It worked and let me add the user to filevault.

'Change your password' error when log to designer using SAP Authentication

Hi All,
Here is the scenario. I want to create a universe on BW.
1. I try to log into designer using SAP authentication (by choosing SAP as the authentication option)
2. In the system name its the name of the CMS
3. The username and password that I entered were for my SAP system. (Yes, my SAP role is already present in CMC)
4. After I entered, I got a message saying ' You must change your password to continue. If you do not change your password, your account might get disabled'.
5. I am prompted with dialogue box to change my password.
6. After I enter a new password (fairly complicated), it gives an error Failed to change password/ Details : [repo_proxy 15]. Sessionfacade:: changePassword - User password has not been updated (Incorrect password).
I know that's not the case because I am able to log into SAP GUI and into CMC using my SAP credentials.
Any advice please ? Why is this happening in designer ?

Hi,
Your issue may be fixed in FP1.8 with the following reference:
ADAPT01229385
Description:
+If an Enterprise alias is created for a SAP user accounts in the Central Management Console (CMC), and set to change their+
+passwords at the next log on, the SAP users may be unable to log on to applications with their SAP credentials.+
+This problem happens even after the Enterprise alias is removed from the SAP user accounts in the CMC.+
I hope this helps.
regards,
Henry

HT1918 how to change your password if you forget your security answers

how to change your password if you forget your security answers

If that doesn't help you might try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support

Possible security problem with my iPhone4, it seems like it has been hacked into and my hotmail, facebook and university accounts (which all have different passwords) and proceed to change my passwords on me. This has happened twice.

I seem to be having security problems with my iPhone4, it seems like someone has hacked into my hotmail, facebook and university accounts (which all have different passwords) and proceed to change my passwords on me. This has happened twice and I have not left my phone unattended at any time that I can recall nor have I accessed these accounts from another source (i.e. computer/laptop) since changing my passwords after the first hacking occurred. Please help.

Anyone else at your university complaining about the same thing? It is more likely someone is stealing passwords by sniffing traffic over the university wifi or with a man-in-the-middle attack or by other means external to your phone. Try a Google search on "steal password" (without quotes) or "steal SSL password" and you'll learn more than you wanted to know about how passwords get stolen.

HT1694 I changed my hotmail password. I then changed that password in settings, it receives emails on my iPad but won't send emails and gives me message that my password is incorrect.

I changed my hotmail password. I then changed the password in settings, now my device iPad will receive emails but gives me an error message when I send emails that password is incorrect. How do I fix it?

Try this. Go deeper into the settings.
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

I know longer have a flash player because the update will not accept my password. I even changed my password.

I no longer have a flash player because the update process will not accept my password even after I changed my password.

We are all alive here, but not working for Adobe. Installing Flash Player isn't asking for your Adobe password.
When you install or update most software you will be asked for your own computer's administrator password. This is the one you chose when you first switched on your machine, and nobody can tell you what it is.

More than the username and password

Hi,
How would you handle a situation where the user should give his/her username and
more than one identity proof? For example:
username:
zone id :
pin no :
The Servlet spec contains the FORM based authentication with "j_username" and
"j_password". How to add the extra information?
Thanks for your time,

Hi Yagiz,
The specification could certainly be altered to have some j_custom tags to more easily
address the problem you describe.
Perhaps you should go to sun's newsgroups or see if you can contact them directly to give
them feedback on the specification?
Cheers
Joe Jerry

we are using the following setup:

passes it as "password" to
weblogic.servlet.security.ServletAuthentication.weak(username, password)
to perform the authentication
- our CustomRealm separates the two password items and performs the
authenticationHi Alfred,
Thanks for the prompt response. I was thinking about the same technique ;-). Although
I haven't considered all the options, it seems to me that the spec could have
an extension point here with some custom fields like "j_custom" or any field starting
with "j_"... Any comments?
Thanks again,

HT201274 my phone is lock because i prees wrong password more than 10 times

My phone is lock because i prees wrong password for more than 10 times. I can open my phone what should i do?

Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons on iPhone until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the iPhone Firmware. At the end Restore from your iTunes Back-Up or use iCloud to get your data back.

How do you change your password in the new BT Mail

I have 3 email addresses (master and two sub accounts) which I like to change the passwords on from time to time. From within BT Mail I am unable to find an option to change the password. There is a link to Manage your emails which takes you to My BT. When I enter My BT and enter the Manage BT mail I am presented with a list of my emails. One of them shows an option to change password, the other two have option to add to BT ID. I tried adding these to BT ID but get an error message telling me that this can't be done. I then contacted BT support, big mistake, after the support tech took over my machine and subsequently began changing passwords on accounts I lost access to my emal and My BT. I have now got access to all areas again but the passwords on the two sub accounts are the passwords that the tech put in there, hardly secure? Anybody know how to change the passwords if sub accounts are not linked to your BT ID?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It appears flytothemoon found a work around for part of this problem below. I have to say this is another large oversight for BT and their email providing partners. Did anyone actually test the new system before it was rolled out?

Syncing will change more than 5% of your calendars on this computer

Hi all,
I'm new to iPhone, but very familiar with Mac. When I attempt to sync my iPhone to my calendars in iTunes I get the message that syncing "will change more than 5% of the calendars on this computer."
What's this mean?
I always hit cancel because I don't want to lose any calendar info on my Mac.
I'm attempting to sync 9 or 10 iCal calendars.
I'm sure this has been well covered in these forums, but I'm able to find my answer.
Thanks!

What's this mean?
Basically you have more or newer info on one side of the syncing devices.
Click on Details when you get this message and you'll see the entries that differ on the phone based calendars. One solution could be to set up your calendar on your computer as desired and replace the calendar info on the phone during the next sync. Click the option in the info pane/ advanced section in itunes with your phone connected.
