I've tried changing it from grub recovery mode and using root@username mount -rw -o mount / and typing passwd username and entering my new password but when I try to login with the new password the screen just flickers and returns to the logon screen. I haven't updated recently and yesterday it was working perfectly.

I think it's a fault in the program itself, I also have great problems with it. That is why I am loading UBUNTU 14.04.1 again.

i also think it is a problem in Ubuntu 14.10 because I was able to create a new user and i am able to access all my files on the other account but what i don't get is that i am able to login into the locked account in shell but not in the graphical interface.... – Derick Asamani Dec 28 '14 at 22:32
