Goto 'Your logins' on your profile page; you can navigate directly to or, if you're already on your user page, click "Settings", then "Your Logins". Then you should see a change password link next to your Stack Exchange login:
See the following sections for instructions on changing your email account password for several major email providers. If your email account provider isn't listed, contact your admin or the email provider's help desk.
Other email accounts will require you to change your email account password on the website for the account provider. For example, to change the password for an Xfinity account, go to the Xfinity website and follow the prompts. Many email account providers have slightly different steps for changing a password.
People are required to refresh their CSU eID passwords at least once per year. When an eID password has been updated, the password stored on a mobile device used to connect to the person's Office 365 Exchange mailbox must also be updated. The steps to update a password vary depending upon the mobile device, the operating system (Mac OS, Android, Windows, etc) and the version of the operating system. In general, E-mail account settings can be updated using the "Settings" or "Account Settings" section of a mobile device - either from the general settings area or within the application used to check e-mail.
Example instructions are included below for an Apple iPhone and a device running Android. If you have questions or encounter problems trying to update the password stored on your mobile device, please contact the CSU Help Desk at
he...@colostate.edu and include your device model, your service provider (Sprint, ATT, Verizon, etc), and the operating system (Mac OS, Android, Windows Mobile) in the e-mail.
I get this warning on my iphone at random times when I go to my settings and my contacts list. I have seen suggested solutions to this annoying problem in this forum, I tried all of them (VPN, Device Management, deleting every possible app which might be correlated with exchange mail (gmail, outlook, microsoft office, school-related apps, etc), restarting iphone, updating iphone, deleting data in icloud backup, inactivating icloud, etc. Unfortunately none of them worked. I appreciate new suggestions. Otherwise, I might end up resetting my iphone and have a fresh start :D

How to Reset Exchange Mailbox Password?
Please Note: Since the web site is not hosted by Microsoft, the link may change without notice. Microsoft does not guarantee the accuracy of this information.
Administrators can easily reset the passwords from Active Directory Users and Computers. Select the Exchange mailbox whose password you want to reset and right-click on it. Select the Reset password option from the list. A dialogue box named Reset Password gets opened. In this, enter a new password (as per the password complexity requirements), confirm the new password by typing it again and select the checkbox (if required) and click OK.
In the new NIST guidelines (US National Institute of Standards and Technology), there are now some rather surprising reversals of guidance on several areas of password management. According to this article from Sophos' Naked Security blog, automatic or periodic password aging is no longer recommended by the new guidelines; rather, the article says:
The only time passwords should be reset is when they are forgotten, if they have been phished, or if you think (or know) that your password database has been stolen and could therefore be subjected to an offline brute-force attack.
The NCSC now recommend organisations do not force regular password expiry. We believe this reduces the vulnerabilities associated with regularly expiring passwords (described above) while doing little to increase the risk of long-term password exploitation.
The problem is not with keeping passwords for a long time, but rather the weaknesses introduced when creating new ones. So, if you are using a randomised method of password generation, you could gain benefit from refreshing passwords periodically.
The guidelines you need then are based on the risks that you identify. If you feel that the service you are authenticating to stores passwords in plaintext, is hacked often, and stores data that is critical to you, then you might want to change your passwords quite often, no matter what the official guidance says.
It is important to understand how to update security settings for Exchange passwords. It helps ensure that only authorized people have access to emails, calendar events, and contacts. Being able to properly update these settings is essential.
Furthermore, many exchange password reset tools also provide an extra layer of security in the form of multi-factor authentication. This helps protect your data by making it much harder for potential hackers or unauthorized users to access it. Overall, resetting an Exchange password can be beneficial by making life easier and keeping your information safe and secure.

I have made several personal configuration changes to a Raspbian Wheezy install (more secure ssh, personal configurations, etc). It's been a couple weeks since I last touched it, and I completely forgot the password to login. What should I do?
I haven't found any good techniques to enable root access period (putting the conversation of why you'd even want to do that aside :) ), let alone if you can't log in. Somebody can correct me if I'm wrong.
If you have physical access to the pi, look at these instructions. Essentially, mount the SD card using a different machine and edit cmdline.txt to include (at the end) init=/bin/sh. Then, run the following commands:
As he puts it: "Why do websites ask me to re-authenticate after a password change? I just provided both the old and the new passwords, I don't see why I need to put the new one again 2s after. Wouldn't it expose my password even more?"
When changing the password, they kick out every logged-in account on every device by setting all cookies(remember me tokens) invalid and so closing all sessions on every device. This includes the device with which you were currently changing the password.
Administrators can easily reset the passwords of Exchange mailboxes from Active Directory Users and Computers. Let us look at the general steps required for resetting the mailbox password:
There is another way to change the passwords of Exchange mailboxes, i.e., using the Exchange Admin Center. But the Reset password option is disabled by default. So, you must enable this option in settings. Before enabling it, users should run these commands one after the other in PowerShell.
Now when you select a user mailbox and click Edit to view its properties, you will find the Reset Password option. Here, you can set a new password of the mailbox and save it for the next login.
Resetting the passwords will help you access mailboxes that have become inaccessible due to loss of passwords. However, if mailboxes are inaccessible due to EDB file corruption or server crashes, you need to use an Exchange database recovery tool.
The professional software for Exchange data recovery, Kernel for Exchange Server recovery is helpful here. It restores any kind of inaccessible Exchange data safely to the desired destination location. It is the best solution for accessing the Exchange data back after Exchange Server corruptions.
The manual methods will help you in resetting the forgotten or older passwords of your Exchange account. But, if you are inputting the correct password and it is still showing errors, it can be due to the corruption in the Exchange database. The corrupt database will dismount from Server and offer different kinds of errors. Then, the native EDB to PST conversion methods will not help you.
To fix the corruption, you can go to EDB to PST Conversion methods. First, use Kernel for Exchange Server software to scan and repair the corrupt Exchange database. You can choose your mailbox and save it in the PST file.
Over the past several months we've been experencing a very random issue where Outlook loses users credentials, and then when loading Outlook it prompts for the password, but goes away so quickly you don't have a chance to enter the password.
@prelek Thank you SOOOOOO MUCH! I've been struggling with this for months! Even Azure/Office 365 support told me to use the registry keys to disable modern authentication. That's NOT a solution! I was on the right path to get it working but was missing the critical piece where the hosts need to be Hybrid Azure AD joined. The moment the hosts showed up as Registered in Azure the "Need password" flickering authentication window issue changed to "Connected to: Microsoft Exchange"!
