    Hello, is it an admin Login, or possibly a Firmware Protection Password???
    Firmware password protection in Mac OS X ...

    It would block usage of all the startup keys, like C, N, T, D, CMD+s, CMD+Option+p+r, CMD +v, Option, and Shift, as well as booting from anything but the Hard Drive.

    1) Add or remove DIMMs to change the total amount of RAM in the computer.
    2) Then, the PRAM must be reset 3 times. (Command + Option + P + R).

    If forget the password of your windows, the most important thing is backup important data, and then try to recover the lost password.
    1. Reset windows password with windows password reset disk. If have a
    windows password reset disk, you can reset password easy and lose nothing.
    1.1. If you enter the wrong password when you attempt to log on, Windows displays a message that the password is incorrect. Click OK to close the message.
    1.2. Click Reset password, and then insert your windows password reset disk (or other removable media).
    1.3. Follow the steps in the Password Reset Wizard to create a new password.

  • HT201240 Forgot my administrator password

    I forgot my administrator's password. How do I reset it? Will it have to delete all files?

    Hi Kbennett411,
    The article below will help you reset your administrator password using your Apple ID account:
    OS X: Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4798
    To reset your OS X user password with your Apple ID
    If you incorrectly enter your account password at the login window three times, a message appears stating "If you forgot your password, you can reset it using your Apple ID".  Click the arrow-in-a-circle icon to bring up the "Reset Password" dialog. Enter your Apple ID and password, then click "Reset Password" to proceed.
    Note: In some cases, you may not be presented with the opportunity to reset the password after three incorrect attempts. If this happens, open Users & Groups preferences, remove the affected Apple ID, and then add the same Apple ID back. This issue could occur after upgrading from Mac OS X v10.6 to OS X Lion.
    Note: Changing the user account password will create a new keychain. The previous keychain still exists and can be accessed if you later remember the previous password.
    Click "OK" in the dialog that appears to inform you about the new keychain.
    Enter a New password, Verify password and Password hint fields, then click "Reset Password" to proceed.
    Click "Continue Log In" to finish logging in using the new password you just created.
    Hope this helps!
    - Judy

  • Forgot my administrator password to mac book pro retina

    I I forgot to write down my chosen administrator password as I went trough the set up process on my new Mac book pro retina 15 inch.
    I put the machine to sleep, and now I can not access my own machine.
    I made a passwordhint, but having tried some 30-40 word combinations I still haven´t hit the right.
    How can I access the machine to make a new password? Since the new Retina models don´t come with an external software CD, I feel pretty lost.

    Use Recovery HD to reset password.
    OS X 10.7 Lion /10.8 Mountain Lion
    Follow the instructions in the first and third boxes.

  • Forgot my administrator password. how can I reset it?

    I have a Mac mini late 2009 edition and the original installation discs with OS X Yosemite installed. I probably need to install the original software that came with it and reset the administrator password. Witch one should I choose, "Archive and install" or 'Erase and Install?"

    For Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
        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.
