How can i reset firmware password utility ?

I have a Mac book pro-part No. MB986/LLA and I had two OS Mac OSX2 & Windows 7 saved on it . I had saved a Frame ware password utility 8 months ago on the system.
yesterday the keyboard and track pad have been freezed . I have deleted the two partitions by an XP CD , now I cannot install the snow Leopard Mac.OS.X10.6 . The error notice I receive is ( *Installation failed , the installer could not start up the computer from the disk "Macintosh HD"try selecting your Disc using Starter Disc Utility* ) . I have used Leopard & snow Leopard DVDs several times to disable the framer password utility but without any result . I have resized the Ram of the system but it was worthless . How can I reset the Framer Password by using a snow Leopard DVD Terminal . The time of boot by using Mac DVD lasts about 20 minutes . I live in a country lacks apple co. agent . Pls help , tks & regards .

Did you try resetting the PRAM immediately after changing the RAM configuration, Omidsmac?
Do you know if the keyboard itself is now operating normally? If it is not then you may wish to also try using an external keyboard.
Cheers

  • How can I reset firmware password Mac Air 1,1?

    I have accidentally selected network bootup from system preferences and I cannot start Mac OS anymore. My macbook is firmware locked with a forgotten password. I cannot remove/add the system memory, as it is integrated into the mba and neither can i use startup shortcuts (ex: cmd+c). if i just turn on the macbook a folder with a question mark blinks alternatively with an earth sketch. I only have a bootable Mac OS USB Stick and another macbook running M. Lion. The mac is on by half an hour now and it does not automatically switch to hdd boot. Please, help!

    I actually wiped my MBAir SSD set a firmware password and then rebooted which results in a blinking folder icon and question mark at boot. If I hold the ALT key during boot I get the option to enter a password but I can't remember what it is to save my life! How would they be able to network boot it when the firmware password is specifically designed to keep you from booting any other device besides the target disk set in the firmware/EFI ?
    Apple Technicians: I am about 300 miles from the nearest Apple store, that being said I have a copy of Apple Service Toolkit. AST OS 12 contains a special NetBoot disk image installer with a bare bones 10.8.4 with TestMarshal. In addition to Apple Service Diagnostics 3S155 software. Is this the same software that Apple would use if I drove 300 miles just to SEE if they could fix it and then have to drive back after they work on it?

  • HT201412 how can you reset your password to simple 4 digit format?

    How can your reset your password to simple format without reseting the whole phone?

    Turn off passcode, then re-enable such. Note: if you have an Exchange account, the requirement to use a non-simple passcode can be enforced by a profile installed on your phone when setting up the Exchange account.

  • HT1904 How can i reset my password

    How can i reset my password i had setup for my parental control. I forgot it.

    If you can't remember the Settings > General > Restrictions passcode then was it on the iPad when you last backed up ? If not then you can restore to that backup and it should be removed. If it was on the iPad when you last backed up then the only way to remove it is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults and you can then re-sync your content back to the iPad - you won't be able to restore to the backup as that will keep the code in place.

  • HT204085 What is "local items"keychain and its password, how can i reset the password if i forgot the password

    What is "local items"keychain and its pasword. how can i reset the password if i forget the password?

    I just fixed the same problem.  Here's what to do. 
    Click on the finder, then scroll across to the GO on the top menu bar, but also hold down the option or alt key while you do this.
    scroll down the go menu to library and highlight library.
    the library folder will open
    go to the keychains folder and open it
    in the keychains folder, then click and drag the blue folder that has all the letters and numbers for a title like "A2CEEE274-....."
    drag this folder to the desktop
    now restart your machine
    when the machine restarts, you should see the keychains folder still open with a new folder in it that looks just like the one you dragged out onto the desktop
    throw the one on the desktop out in the trash
    You just reset the keychain folder so the new mavericks update could recognize it correctly, by the way apple customer support mentioned the reason this was happening was due to the update, and this is the standard fix.  The apple keychain access pw should be your apple id or logon password. 
    Good luck!!!
