Hey all, I recently changed my google account password. I am trying to log into google on my phone, however when I enter the new password, it keeps telling me "You have entered the wrong password or your account has changed.
Ok..I'll explain what I did wrong, and then what I did to fix, which led me to my current dilemma.
I thought I was going to be a smartypants and change my password to something really easy. Well, I goofed it up. When I tried to log on, I couldn't.
So I accessed the root shell to change password, but encountered " change password authentication token manipulation error".
When I start up Ubuntu 12.10 I see the login screen. I have my account and a guest account as the choices. When I choose my account by clicking on it, I automatically get logged in with out being required to enter my password.
I want to password protect my account so when someone clicks my account, they have to enter the proper password to get in.
I have been using Ubuntu 12.04 for a few months now, but have now come across a problem that I can't get past.
I am stuck at the log on screen: I enter my password but a black screen flashes up and the log on prompt reappears.
I tried using the terminal and I actually have managed to login- but not using the main log on screen. I can't get my desktop active as the log on prompt is there.
I am using OpenSuse 11.1
When the computer boots, I come to the welcome screen and then I have the screen with the users on the left hand side.
One user is selected by default, and the space for the password is in blank.
I have created a new user in Mint 12, with this commands:
sudo useradd irene
sudo passwd irene
//here I entered the password
But if I try to login with this user the screen goes black for a couple of seconds and then I'm back at the login screen (no error appears).
I know the password I enter is correct, because if I enter something else the "wrong password" shows up.
I have a standard account with no password, then in the terminal it aksed for my password to install a program, I tried just ENTER and the adminstrators password but none worked, then I tried to create a password but I can't cause it says that the current password is wrong, but I haven't made a password yet! what's going on? Any ideas?
I set my phone to have the password grid every time I want to use it, but when I changed it from the default, I realized I lost some other good features, like having the camera app on that first screen along with the flick to unlock option, and now I don't know how to put my phone into airplane mode.
I am using Ubuntu 11.10 which was working fine till today.
If I try to login using one of my user accounts it directs me back to the login screen, which is followed by a black screen.
I am sure the password I enter is correct because if the password is wrong it prompts "Invalid Password".
On the other hand I am able to login using a root or guest account.
