can u find anyone's password by only knowing username??

Answer 1

No. To be able to change a password you usually need:

‎‎→ Nickname
→ Date of birth
→ Zip code/Location where the e-mail was registered
→ Answer to security question

So, it is very hard :)

Answer 2

No, you cannot. Passwords and User Names are two separate entries, and you have the option to change your password as often as you'd like, but not your user name. However, if a person uses the same password with everything and you just happen to know what that password is, then you obviously know what it is. To make strong passwords that are difficult for someone to decipher, use upper and lower-case letters and include numbers and characters when you create a password, but also make sure it is easy for you to remember what your password is so that you don't have to write it down for someone to discover.
For example: KimJohnsonIsAGreatTech_1961. Nobody would ever figure that one out; most people will normally choose a 4-digit lower-case password, such as 1234 or some other simple password such as the year of their birth, making it easier for a person to decipher what that password may be. I have a habit of doing that, particularly with bankcards where you are allowed a typical 4-digit pin code. If you have a great memory then those pin codes can vary from one card to another. I just don't like to use different pin codes for each card I possess because I don't want to be at an ATM machine trying to make a deposit or a withdrawal where I find it difficult to remember what pin code belongs to that card. A good habit to create is to change your password often.

Answer 3

No, you can't... When people create their username and password, you have to answer a secret question, this question is made so that the person that has the account set up, if they loose their password, can go in and change their password, but 1st they have to answer the question with the correct answer... Then this will allow the person who has the account access to change their password to a new one... If you are speaking of an account other than yours, you need to not inquire of someone else's password... This type of inquiry could possibly lead to you getting kicked off of yahoo.

Answer 4

You are trying to hack into somebody's username account? You need to know more than just a password. You need to know if it's an account for a server or a computer login. If it's a server, there's a lot more to it. If it's a computer login, all you can change the password but not read it. Sometimes people also leave their password clues around their computer because they can't remember it.

Answer 5

You may guess someone else's password if you know how that person is most likely to think. To know the user name is only useful if you find out the password for that specific account.

And by the way, haven't you noticed that most sites use your own email address as your user name in order for you to access their page?

If what you ask was true, then everybody would know everybody else's passwords

Answer 6

The best places to hide are where is least expected - for the stupid ones! You can deduce some key guys passwords from their usernames!

Answer 7

No. Unless their password is the same as the username.

Answer 8

Only if it happens to be the same as their username. Otherwise, no you cannot. That's why it is called the secret password.

Answer 9

It depends on the site, but generally no. Good sites that stress privacy won't even store a user's password, just a hash of it that is impossible to reverse so even the company/site doesn't know a user's password.

Answer 10

Keep typing in passwords until you open the account. Let me know when you get lucky in a few years or so.
