So your in front of your Mac, its asking for a password and you don't know it.

Can you still get in? Yes you can, heres how.

The first option, if you have access to you system disk then with that cd you can reset the password by booting from it (to boot from cd press the C key on startup)

Visit this post for more details: http://isgood.co.uk/index.php/topic,1...

However if you don't have the cd

The process below will allow you to create a new admin account and with that new account you will be able to login into your system.

You don't loose your files, but you must make a unique username and NOT the same as what originally existed.

Before you start this is what you should know about this procedure.

What your about to do is delete a folder called AppleSetupDone.

By removing this folder it will fool the system into thinking it has not yet completed the setup of creating a new user, so after the reset it will start asking you for your details, just like as if its the first time its running.

Will you loose you files? To avoid confict you should create a unique account and not one of the same name as the system had previously.

Once the new account has been created to get to the documents you have to goto the users folder and change permissions of the folder to get acess your previous documents.

Ive only tested this using Mac OSX, i would assume it would work on any hardware thats running OSX.

Here goes, first you need to enter terminal mode

1. Reboot
2. Hold apple key (or command) + s key down after you hear the chime.
3. When you get text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line)

mount -uw /
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
shutdown -h now

4. After rebooting you should have a brand new admin account.

As not to loose files the new admin account must be a new name and not one previously used. I've only tested this on osX.

Once you are logged in, you might want to get access to your old admin accounts file.

I'll be making a Youtube video that shows you all the steps in action
