after i set the id manually in the Authors controller:

$this->User->setId($this->author_id);

(   $this->author_id is a controller variable which
is derived from the session
$this->Session->readSessionVar('User.author_id');  )

i was able to

$this->User->saveField('password', md5($pw1));

dunno why, glad it works !
