that link is as good as a chocolate fire guard, almost ever one who cant reset password would have read that and came here to ask for help, as what we have read from help files off of unit or sandisks web site has not helpped.
I have tried over and over to reset my password following that information and in my case just does DONT WORK.
OK after going round and round at lart sorted.
I Think its just not clear when you read what you need to do to reset PASSWORD.
So after trying few times and it not working.
1 unplug from computer if coneccted and turn off.
2 turn on holding down power button for about 10 seconds or untill you all three leds flashing,
let go of power button right away.
3 wait till SMD resets its self.
4 power no.
5 from your phone run SMD app, and in your Phone settings join you network for your wireless SMD.
6 From your Media Drive window select setting.
7 Go to ADMIN Password pops up type in admin and press return/enter
If all is OK you should now be in admin setting screen
8 On this screen you change the name you want your network to be called, the below that
You can change the WI-FI Setting Password IF asked for Password enter/type no password press enter/return
You are done
Now just trun on and test
Admin password should be admin
WI-FI Password should be no password
If the above above worked you have reset both your passwords for your SMD ‘Sandisk Media Drive’
The above was key by key and it worked for me.
I do hope it help you reset your drive to.

Let me know if it help you.
Thank you for this information! I was just about ready to throw this thing in the trash. SanDisk needs to add your answer to their FAQ’s!
