How do I find my mac os x password

Have no idea what my "Mac OS X password is, and am being asked for it to download an 1Password update

I assume you mean your user account's admin password:
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu. Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow instructions in the dialog window that will appear.
Or see Reset a Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Password and OS X Lion- Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.

    You can only locate, lock or erase your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

  • How to use Find my Mac on a different iCloud account?

    I have my own iCloud account set on my mac and on my iPhone, however on my iPhone, I manage to use my dad's iCloud account so he can use the find my iphone app on my phone. I do this while still having all other icloud stuff (eg. imessage or app store) with my own icloud account/apple id (not my dads). However I recently bought a macbook air and Im trying to set up the find my mac on icloud but for some reason, i can only have one icloud account at the same time, and i wanted to have my dads icloud/apple id for the find my mac and my own apple id for the rest of the stuff. Does anyone know how to do this?

    You can see the locations of your devices and take additional actions by going to http://www.icloud.com, then signing in and clicking on Find my iPhone.

  • How can I find my Mac book pro it got stolen

    How can I track my Mac book pro

    Look for it.
    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • How can I find my MAC address on macbook pro?

    I just bought a new macbook pro with the lion software and can't find my MAC address.

    Did you look under the System Preferences > Network > Airport (or Ethernet) > Advanced
    The Airport ID or Ethernet ID is your MAC address, depending on which one your using.
    You can also use the Terminal

  • How can i find the mac address of a brand new iphone 5 since i can't get to the settings screen untill it's signed onto the web

    I have a brand new iphone. my home wifi router has a mac filter. I can't use my phone until the wifi is set up but i cant set up my phone until it connects to the internet. is there a way to find the mac addreess without getting to the settings menu?

    It's not on the box.
    Try turning off Mac filtering temporarily on your router, finish the setup, then turn it back on. Or use another WiFi hotspot, such as an Apple store or a carrier's store. Or McDonalds. Or Starbucks.

  • I just bought a new iPhone.I don't know iPone ID.how can I find this iPhone gmail account password? I put my MAC pro apple ID, but I can't download this iPhone.

    I just bought a new iPhone, I don't know new phone's ID and password. how can I find them? Because I can't dwonload anything.

    You don't. Can you get into the iPhone at all or is it asking for a 4 digit passcode when you turn it on?
    Edit: Reread your subject. So to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all Settings and Content. After that set it up on your computer as a new iPhone and it will transfer you Apple ID

  • How to activate "Find My Mac"

    I am using Mac Air with OS X Yosemite.  I signed out the iCloud and signed in again.  After the sign in, the "Find My Mac" could not be activated with the following message
    "Find My Mac requires a recovery partition
    Some configurations, such as a software or hardware RAID, do not support a recovery partition and can't be used with Find My Mac."
    Have anyone come across it?
    Thanks

    Check "I cannot turn Find My Mac On" here:

    There are several suggestions involving the recovery partition.

    I have a wireless network and can't connect to it at all. I have looked and typed in Blackberries search engine and came up with nothing, only answers are about a MAC computer, not what I am looking for.
    I have to add the Mac address to the wireless network in order to get past the firewall and this is not working for me, any ideas.

  • How do I find the MAC address for the time capsule?

    I am trying to install 2T time capsule as my main router. Telus my internet supplier allows me to in install the MAC address for the static ip that I am going to use. But where is the MAC address on the cube or how do I get it?

    On the bottom label it should list the MAC address.
    If you happen to still run the original.. ie decent airport utility it has all that info right in front of you.
    But you see that was before Apple reduced the airport utility to the status of a toy..
    Pretty pictures no info.. think kid's book.
    See very very pretty.. as a UTILITY though.. useless.
