Call Apple with the Serial and they will send you the ones that came with the Mac. Or search the Net.

I can not remember the original password for my express

I can not remember the original password for my express or extreme. Help!

You have two basic choices: 1) Perform a "soft" reset on either base station which will temporarily disable any passwords (base station or security) for 5 minutes to allow you enough time to use the AirPort Utility to change them, or 2) Access your passwords using the Keychain Access utility.

Changing or resetting an account password

I am in my login screen, I do not remember my administrator password, and I want to reset the password. What do I do?

I have a macbook air and I am stuck in the login menu. I do not remember the main account's password. I am fine with resetting it but in order to do that, I know you have to turn it off. When I press the "shut down" icon, it says I have to enter the administrator name and password and then i can shut it down. Well yeah, I cannot remember my administrator name or password.. What the **** do I do??

Press the power button for 10 or more seconds.

If you have only one account, then your admin password is your user password. If you use another account that is not an admin account, then log into your admin account from which you can change the password on your user account.

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a pasword in the view password window and now it not asking me to remember and also it is not remembering the password when I go

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a password for a site that was not remembering the correct password for the "view password" window and now it does not guess the password and does not remember the password for that site. All other sites are being remembered.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After I deleted the password from the view password window.

The saved password feature worked well, but the site I had saved the password for required that I change the password. I have found no way to update the password in Firefox. After I deleted the saved password, Firefox did not ask if I wanted the new password saved. When this happened before, I removed and re-installed Firefox, and then it worked. I hope there is another way to update a password.

HT5312 So I have a problem with iTunes not letting me download anything without first responding to some security questions which I don't remember setting up, how can fix it? Oh, and it won't let me reset the questions either!

If you mean that you aren't getting the reset link, then from the page that you posted from :
Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so.
You can contact iTunes Support in your country via this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

Read the router's user manual on how to change your password.
If you are going to select another password, make sure it's one that you will NEVER forget AND no one else can figure it out. Print it out & keep in a safe place. A place that ONLY you know about AND never forget.
