"You Have Been Locked Out, Contact Your Administrator"
May 31, 2011
My laptop crashed on shut down. When I turned it on again, it took me to system recovery and started reinstalling everthing. I left it to run overnight. In the morning, I was presented with a logon screen to select the users. There are two, one is administrator, the 2nd is "other user" (for new user I am guessing), if I click administrator, there is a problem that says "You have been locked out, contact your administrator" and if i click other user, it will make me type in username and password, but i have not created such thing. I then restart the system, it says "Preparing windows for first use" and brings me back to the logon screen again with the option of choosing the same users. In between all that, I remember coming across an error saying "please logon as administrator to complete installation". I can't logon as adminstrator as its been locked/disabled.
Laptop Info:
Sony Vaio i3
4gb ram, 500Gb HD
Windows 7 64bit Home Premium
I cant open many programs because it says -access is denied-contact system administrator, but each time it tells me that it is blocked by group policy.I cant open system restore for this reason or get commands to work-- they all come up with access is denied.
After 5 days of trying to make a domain using Windows Server 2008 and getting a DNS error I cracked it and my other laptop could join my domain.I made an account in Active Directory Users and Computers and made it a standard user but in the log on screen I entered the credentials I get an error."You cannot log on using this method please contact you local administrator" or something like that.
I am missing a password for win 7 ultimate. I dont have administrator and also cannot just open bios and reset all passwords.It seems that this computer is networked to others and it is locked from outside.
what should i do to unlock it? only one account is created and thats me as an administrator...when i executed the files only to restrict other users, i as well was locked up? is there any means to unlock it? system restores doesnt work too not even when i login to safe mode or computer repair boot.
I've a problem with ALL my Windows 7 Laptop ini my office. We have 5 Laptop with Windows 7 installed in it. A week ago, everything is doing Normally. I make those 5 laptops join domain, and I make the user in domain as an administrator in their local Laptop. But in last Monday, everything going strange:
1. When I logging in using their account, I can enter the desktop. But when I try to access some programs that need Administrator Account, it become errors and said that I must administrator privilege to access this programs.
2. I try to access user account in control panel, and when I see the user list, it become BLANK. No user defined even an administrator too. When I try to add new user in it, it said that I didn't have Administrator privilege (again).
3. I try to logging in using Local Administrator, but in the log in menu, it said that the administrator account is disabled. How Come?
4. The only way I can access with administrator privilege is using the Domain Administrator. I try to configure again, and when I restart, everything has gone again.
i am trying to create a new site in dreamweaver. the site will have a coldfusion extension (.cfm). i am the only user on my notebook so i have complete administrator privileges. however, when i try to save the site in the c:inetpubwwwroot folder (because that's where coldfusion applications are saved) i always get an error.the error says: "you don't have permission to save to this location. contact the administrator to obtain permission" i thought i was the administrator? i am unable to change the settings in the security tab in the properties panel either. that is the extent of my troubleshooting capabilities.
A little background and info: I support a number of people who for one reason or another need to be able to do things a local admin can do like install programs and start services (or more accurately allow a program they're running to start a service). All users are in the local administrators group. The local admin account is enabled (and renamed) so that we as administrators have local access when the machine comes in for service. The machines are joined to a AD domain so that we can control a lot of the security via GPO. Everything worked fine in XP.
We are getting a few different "you do not have permission" errors. When the user tries to run OpenAFS (which starts a service) they get a "you do not have permission" error. There is no way around this error.
Also, when the users try to run Lotus Notes they get a "you do not have permission" error. When we go into compatibility mode and check the "run as administrator" (or just right click and "run as administrator) it works fine, but they have to click the elevated privileges. The program was installed while logged in as the user.
Again, all users are members of the local administrators group. When the local admin account logs in all these programs run fine. This behavior started in Vista and I chalked it up to "vista sucks". Windows 7 so far seems to be great, except that like in vista, members of the local administrators group are not really local administrators. How do I make them true local administrators?
I use an old XP app (JetToolbar - available at JetToolBar - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com) and do not want to change but I cant make it work on Windows 7. The application installs and starts up just fine but it is not possible to drag icons/programs/files to the toolbar - I just get the 'no entry' sign (Circle with line through)However, the application runs fine when logged on to the hidden Administrator account. If I set up the application in the hidden Admin account and then log on as a normal admin user and run it from that account, the icons I set up are just not visible.So what do I have to change in my normal user account (member of administrators) to make this drag and drop work?I have tried 'Run as administrator' but that made no difference. Ive read about dropping to 'Run as User' apps from 'Run as Admin' apps but that's not the problem (at least problem occurs when app is run as user or run as admin)
I have an Acer laptop which came with one user account, Acer, with the administrator right. When I tried to rename it to Administrator or administrator, I got an messages saying that user name has already existed
I purchased Windows 7 pro and I have a license that lets me install it on three different computers. 2 of the computers are not longer running and I need to reinstall it on two of my new computers. I need to reset the key to enable that but I am not sure who to talk to to make that happen or what number to call.
It used to happen that when I wanted to send an email all I had to do was type in the first letter of the email address in the 'TO' box and a list would come up with all emails that started with that letter. So i could just click the one I wanted and it would autimatically fill the box of with the email address that I wanted to send. Now suddenly it doesn't do that anymore.
I am using Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail for my emails. Whenever I run the deep clean option of my Advaced System Care program, it erases my contact list and I have to go back and re-enter the contacts. I would like to copy the file of Contacts elsewhere first so I would be able to copy it back after doing the Deep Care, but cannot find where it is stored. Kinda like the old .wab file I used to have.
Installed system 7 over windows XP. Before starting I saved mostly everything (MS Outlook) but not my contact list. Is the contact list still on my hard drive since I did not format it? Could it be embedded in some saved file by the installation program?
I have just got new laptop, Acer Aspire 3-571G using Windows 7 64 bit OS. Since updating Mozilla firefox the contacts list and the calendar etc. have moved from the left hand side of my mailing page and been added to my inbox column.
I did a reinstall of my OS and neglected to copy my WLM contacts list. I have not as of yet deleted the Windows.old folder. Is it possible to find the contact list within that folder?
Just loaded Windows 7 pro and moved my contacts from OE to WLM. When I tried to send an email to a bunch of patients noticed that program did not only use the primary email address, but used all addresses of each patient. Is there a way of tell WLM to only use primary email addresses like OE does?Or it there a way to showing only primary addresses in the contact list that comes up when searching for a group of patients?
1. Computer, at start up, sometimes can't find my monitor. Only way is to start the computer with the monitor switched off; then turn the monitor on at a certain time during the booting process (when I here a motherboard-beep). Occasionally the connection will be broken anyway (and I'll have to mess with the 'reset/-start button). I generally get to the motherboard page and BIOS settings. But sometimes not even that and then the only solution is to leave everything off for a while (minimum a couple of minuts – but not exactly sure).
2. Computer lose monitor when it to goes into sleep mode. This only happens if I leave it inactive for a long enough time. I can usually retrieve it if the display's gone out only for a short while, as usual - by pressing keyboard or moving mouse.
My hope is to find a solution that doesn't involve buying a new monitor.
I have MS Office 2003 which I use for Contact Information only.
In the event that my mobile phone would be unavailable for whatever reason can I use MS OUTLOOK 2003 to send text messages to one of the contained contacts ?
Recently, when I was having a problem with crackling noise on my HTPC. I took the suggestion of one poster on the forum, who suggested using a spray such as this, because it sounded good to me. However after doing so, instead of crackling, there was no sound at allI've replaced the card, but now am wondering if I should ever use that cleaner on a computer component or not? Not sure if it matters, but it is the CRC brand
Does anyone know the total number of email contacts you can have in Windows Live?Someone told me 1,000 - someone else said 1,500. Now I am being told 2,000.Is there a limit to the number of email contacts for windows live and if so what is that number?
I sent some vCard files to my PC (windows 7 ultimate) and the default bluetooth program notified it is in windows contacts. When I open it, it is in .contact format I thought phone is sending the format, so I tried to send another contact as a message to another phone. However, at that time the message subject displayed "nameOfPerson.vcf" !!! Which means, it is sending vCards!! I don't need .contacts, I need vCards
