I changed my Admin name and now I can't download anything

I changed my administrator name and now when it asks for name and password it doesn't work. How can I retrieve the old or fix this? I can't download or anything without an administrator name and password.

Use the Admin account you used to change the name in order to give your current account admin privileges again.
