How do you factory reset macbook

My friend has just bought a shop display macbook laptop from Duty Free Sales at Bristol Airport for her daughter. They put password in to prevent customers playing with it. She cannot get answer from shop as to what password is and unless she flies out again security will not let her through to the shop. How can she do a factory reset please? She doesn't have a Leopard disk
Thanks
Rick

Rick - you should get the install discs from the seller. As ypw mentioned, you can reset the password using those.
The following instructions you should use with caution, as it requires booting the computer into single user mode.
Otherwise, with the computer off you could hold down Apple Key and S and turn the computer on.
It will boot into single user mode - command prompts. You will then have to mount the disk, the instructions are provided at the last second, but it's the command fsck -y then the command mount -uw /
Once mounted, type passwd and it will ask you to enter the new password. You could also run passwd <username> (insert the username there).
By running the first option, that will enable the root account and set the password to whatever, therefore to login you would enter the username root and the password you supplied.
Be careful not to mess with much, and once you use it try to get the leopard disc and do a reinstall of the OS when you get home.

Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or you do not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode see:

How do you factory reset a Satellite M50 -159

Hi,
I need to factory reset the above laptop. I've looked through the forum and seen a post saying to press 0 to access this option but this doesn't work. The laptop did not come with any CDs as the factory software is on a hidden partition on the hard disk.
Any other suggestions as to how to access the factory reset options?
Thanks in advance
Michael

According to the User's Manual for your Satellite M50, it came with a "Product Recovery Disk."
Maybe I looked up the wrong computer?

How do you factory reset the aluminum bluetooth keyboard?

When I got my new BT keyboard, I set it up on my macbook just to test it out. But its final use was with the mac mini in my living room.
I deleted the pairing from my macbook and paired it with my mini. All was working ok until a few days ago, when the keyboard light started flashing for no reason when in use, and my macbook shows that the keyboard is trying to pair with it.
Is there a way to factory reset the keyboard, so it doesn't remember any previous pairings? I know this is possible with other bluetooth devices, I just can't find how to do it with this apple keyboard.

Hello:
Try trashing the preference file (com.apple.bluetooth.plist) and restarting.

HT1430 How do you know if your ipod has been reset?

I am having trouble with my ipod touch. It is a 4th generation. When I unplug it from my computer it goes black after about 10 seconds. It will not come on until I plug it into the computer. What is going on with it? Can anyone help?

Try:

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

How can you back up your ipod onto your external hard drive that you're using in time machine?

I just bought an external hard drive and want to put my ipod music on it but can't figure out how. My ipod has music that my itunes library on my computer doesn't have. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would also suggest you get a 2nd, much larger hard drive, partition it if desired, move your data to it, and start a 2nd Time Machine backup on it. You can set Time Machine to alternate between the 2 drives by adding the new drive to System Preferences/Time Machine. If you want to make a copy of your current backup on the new drive, you can do that using the Disk Utility Restore tab. If you chose to do that, make the copy first since using the Restore tab erases all data on the drive or the partition.
