Welcome to Apple Support Communities
As you have OS X Mountain Lion, try resetting the password from Recovery > http://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4101
It looks like OS X was reinstalled. After resetting the password, you will be able to log in and use your MacBook Pro

Terribly sorry Joseph Kriz. I had absolutley no intention of annoying anyone. This was the first time I have been communicating in a discussion group, and as I wrote my comments I had no idea how my typing would reflect and where my question would be going. Hope my unintentional typing will be forgiven and causes no further agitation.The only additional comment I can make on your response is that "I do not use capital letters or CAPS LOCK while I try to enter my administrator password". Thank you for guiding me

Forgot the password to my MacBook White

I forgot the password to my MacBook White, and it won't let me in . Please give me some help!!!

Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Reset Password. After resetting the password use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for startup and restart.

You didn't say what operating system you have. If OS X 10.6 or earlier, see this (you'll need your original OS X DVD that came with the system or a retail OS X DVD). If 10.7 or later, see this.

How do I set up the email on the my new MacBook Pro to receive "me" email

how do I set up the email on the my new MacBook Pro to receive "me" email on my Mac. I would like to use Entourage if possible but anything would be good.
I am not sure this is the right place but I could not figure out where else to post an email ( [email protected] ) question.
Thanks!
Martin

Hi Martin,
MobileMe Mail Help: Setting up Mac OS X Mail to receive your MobileMe email
The steps you follow to set up Mac OS X Mail to receive your MobileMe email depend on which version of Mac OS you’re using.
Important: For the instruction below, use the following: MobileMe Mail’s incoming mail server is “mail.me.com” and the outgoing mail server it “smtp.me.com.”
To set up Mac OS X Mail to receive MobileMe mail:
If you’re using Mac OS X version 10.4.11 or later
Open System Preferences (under the Apple icon at the upper-left of your computer screen).
Click MobileMe (if you have Mac OS X version 10.5.3 or later), or .Mac (if using version 10.4.11 to 10.5.2), and enter your MobileMe member name and password.
Open Mac OS X Mail, choose Mail > Preferences, and then click Accounts.
Click the Add button at the lower-left of the Accounts pane. Choose MobileMe from the Account Type pop-up menu, and then enter your account information.
The member name and password you use for SMTP authentication must match the member name and password in the User Name and Password fields.
To switch to POP, delete the existing IMAP account before you create the new POP account. Choose POP Account from the Account Type pop-up menu instead of MobileMe Account.

How do I connect TC to a new ethernet and share a new ethernet DSL with a new PC and use with my macbook Pro? I tried and get no internet on the PC or Macbook Pro?

how do I connect TC to a new ethernet and share a new ethernet DSL with a new PC and use with my macbook Pro? I tried and get no internet on the PC or Macbook Pro?

Ok.
I am connected to wi-fi through TC connected to a specific router and is working perfectly and saving data through TM without any issues.
The TC version is 7.6.1 and am using OS 10.7.3
The router mode is on Bridge mode and router is connected to TC through USB cable, I suppose for internet access. My Mac is on wi-fi through TC
I have another location, much further, which recently have been installed with wi-fi through router that has WPA accessibiulity with password, 100% different than the current one.
Since, I will be most of my time in this new location, I wish to move my TC to this new location, and configure it in similar fashion like what I am having right now.
Naturally, I do not wish to lose any saved data on the TC.
Hope I managed to provide enought info.
Thanks in advance
