I was just going through the Control Center exploring trying to get familiar with the settings, until I came across one, (I don't remember now which one), but it needed a password before I could open it to make changes. I put in the same password I had just used, but got an error message saying that wasn't the right password.
Where TDE Control Center asks for a password, it needs the root password, not the user's password. At least, I've never seen it ask for the user's password.
It sounds like you may now have your user password munged up. Can't help you with that, except to suggest you try resetting it from a root shell using passwd.
I also suspect the same thing. If your user is a "normal user", changing some system settings requires root privileges. Some of the options in Control Center are like that, so when you are asked for a password it should say something like "insert root password". You need to provide the root's password, not your user's password.
Please try again and if you still have errors, please post a screenshot of what you are doing and what the error looks like.
