I've done this process many times, including the laptops at my school! It is a simple combination of codes to reset, and reboot your computer, no data will be deleted, and there will be no traces left over at all.

  • by the way, sorry my typing was awful, i had just gotten than new keyboard.

    Other questions, when i reboot the computer at the very beginning of the clip, that is command+s that i am pressing :D. enjoy!

  • every time i restart and press command s it just goes to login please help

  • @ktmrider198 Yea, sorry, you have to press both of them when the screen first goes blue, as soon as there is a color on the screen do it.

  • Also tee, to answer your question, you can use the password for your account, or the original password to access admin stuff. We just got a new mac today, here goes!

  • Actually, there is no trace becausr we deleted the secret account we made after making ours admin. Yes, yoi could see our accpunt now admin if ypu wrre specifically lookong for that. Also, now that ypu have done it once, you can go into single user mode abd just type reboot, nothing and you can set it up again

see all
