Newbie to apple question
Posted: Tue Jun 16, 2009 9:17 am
I've read (not exhaustively) questions about deleting an Apple computer's administrative password. And answers to use Linux to delete it from the registry. I can't make this work on my iMac or Powerbook G4.
Ok, why do I need to delete the password? I bought these on eBay and can't get to the owner on one (he's banned...the iMac seller) and the Powerbook seller says there is no password when there clearly is to change the computer's name, email passwords, access to admins rights, yada yada. Granted these are the first two apple computers I have had. For a couple of days.
So how can I get this program to fix my problems. The iMac can't even use the mail program without the password, BTW.
Thanks in advance.
