    If the backup volume is encrypted, and you forgot the password, then you'll have to erase the volume and start a new backup. There's no way to recover the password.

    chouman1,
    which model MacBook Pro do you have, and which version of OS X is installed on it? Was the password for an administrative user account, or for a standard user account, or was it a firmware password?

  • Too many suggestions on resetting wifi password for my MacBook Pro!  How is it really done?

    I'm trying to reset my wifi passwork on my MacBook Pro.  There are way too many suggestions on the internet.  I want to get the "real" way to do it so I don't make a mistake.  Thanks

    DELETED
    Sorry. Read that as system password the first time. The wifi password needs to be reset in your router, then on your devices. How to do it depends on which router you have.
    In the Airport Extreme, use Airport Utility to get into the router. Double click the base station then choose edit. Select the wireless tab. Enter the new password there.

  • I forgot my admin password for my macbook and my macbook doesnt allowme to go on single user or boot up in safe mode or boot up with the option key all it does is show a image of a globe blinking everytime i try to do something

    please people help me i brought this macbook from a friend and now its ****** up its a macbook late 2006 and it dosesnt allow me to do anything everytime i click on a key to go on single user terminal or boot up cd or run on safe mode it shows a image of a globe(earth)

    Somehow the HDD is screwed up. Data saving issue is not directly Toshiba related issue and before you spend time here discussing about such things I recommend you to ask someone with good PC knowledge what can be done about data saving.
    When the HDD is in the notebook again start notebook as first step set BIOS to default settings.
    After doing this install recovery image. After doing this you will have clean preinstalled OS and everything should work properly again.
    I hope you will be able to do this using HDD recovery option.
    How to do this you can find on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
    Have you maybe created recovery discs?

  • MacBook purchased from eBay USA. Difficulty in retrieving USERNAME and PASSWORD for my MACBook Pro

    Please help me retrieving my MacBook User ID and Password !!!! URGENT !!!

    This was discussed at length in other forums (can't be mentioned here) and there were several people (including myself) involved in some serious, different-scenarios testing. The utlimate goal was/is to publish an all-encompassing user tip since the entirely new/different licensing requirements are confusing at best; however, we have been stymied by a lack of definitive Apple policies on the iLife apps (another story).
    So, no, there is no documentation from Apple, but the facts are that Command + R will need an Apple ID and will reinstall the current system, so that is only an option for someone who purchased Lion or ML at the app store (such as the current owner/seller). However, Command + Option + R can be used by the seller to get the machine back to its originally installed system (unless it was SL or previous of course). In an emergency, it can also be used by a buyer; however, the preferred method is to start with the original install media and upgrade from there using their own Apple ID.
    When I first saw the new SLA, I submitted a bug report to Apple to be more specific with their instructions - that was shortly after Lion was introduced. I never received a reply.

  • What is the default superuser password for a macbook pro

    I created a user account and I am the 'admin'.  When I type 'su' in a terminal window, my password is not accepted.  I also set up a 'master password' and
    this is also not accepted as the superuser password.  What can I use for the superuser password or how do I change it?

    By default, it's set to an illegal value. Unless the root user has been enabled, nothing will be accepted.

  • Someone changed the password to my macbook pro

    Someone changed the password for my MacBook Pro---and as the administrator I cannot go in and change it back...or least cannot figure out how to do it.  Is there some secret way to do it when blocked from the typical password change options?
