Boot from your recovery partition by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the recovery desktop appears, select Utilities > Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, enter “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A “Reset Password” window opens.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled “Select the user account” if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password.
Select Apple menu > Restart from the menu bar.

I just got a MacBook Pro and I used Home Sharing to transfer my library from my PC. However, my PC's battery died in the middle of the process so only half of my music was transferred. The sharing option no longer shows up on the left. Do I need to start completely over and delete the content in my new library to prevent duplicates or is there a way to continue the process?

I just got my MacBook Pro a month ago. However I am realizing I need more hard drive space due to aps and programs. I use am external but am concerned about the space. Is there a way to upgrade my hard drive from apple and keep my warranty valid?
That would depend on whether your model actually has a hard drive. If you have the new 2013 Retina model, then you have a fixed storage device built-in that cannot be modified after purchase.

i just got my macbook pro a week ago and i was told that i will get the lion for free, if this is true, then how do i get it.
Hi,
Not that's not normal and is one of the Problems I was having before Restoring as New...
Just make sure you Sync ALL your important Info... Contacts... Music... Etc... to your Computer...
and then do a Restore as New...
i was a bit reluctant at First, because I hadn't done it before... But it was So Easy and am Really Glad I did...
Cheers,

I just got a MacBook Pro and and Screen Cracked? Help?
JUst got a MacBook Pro and my friend, kinda Droped it. Any Help for replacemnt. Is it possible to get a free replacemnt.
The way to get a free replacement is to have your clumsy friend buy a new one for you. There's no other way. The warranty doesn't cover your computer against clumsy friends — only manufacturing defects.

I just got a macbook pro as a gift and i wanted to upgrade to mountain lion for free but i don't know where the laptop was brought? can anyone help me?
No one here would have any information as to where the MacBook Pro was purchased.
Contact the person who gifted the Mac.
Apple - See if you qualify for a free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade. -
i just got my macbook pro 3 months ago, when i got it at the authorised dealer store i ask them to put on a screen protector and there's a small crack on my screen. what should i do?
When it gets bad enough, you will need to replace the screen.
Your warranty covers defects in material and workmanship.
That sounds like accidental damage -- glass does not tend to crack spontaneously.
Check your homeowners insurance to see if there might be coverage. -
hi,
just got a MacBook pro 2008 from a friend who bought it online. When it came we tested it and it was working. The person he wanted to supply changed his mind and my friend left the mac in the office cabinet since late last year. I decided to buy it and when I tried to turn it on it wouldn't. I charged the battery fully and checked if it was ok. I tried smc and nvram reset yet no sound or beep or any sign of life. There are no apple store around where I live in Nigeria now.
thanks"Any suggestions would be great - Thanks!!!"
Have him take it to an Apple store or AASP. (Stay away from Macs. You're a PC guy). -
i just got a macbook pro and i put my icloud information in and i can't find my music, tv shows or even movies in itunes
Music and other purchased media doesn't sync to your Mac from iCloud, it must be downloaded to your iTunes library, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.
If they are on an iOS device, they can also be transferred to your iTunes library by opening iTunes on your Mac, authorizing iTunes for all Apple IDs used to purchase the media in Store>Authorize This Computer, then connecting your device to your computer and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. -
just got my MacBook Pro and I'm having trouble opening up certain websites, it just keeps scrolling and scrolling and never opens up the page....this is not the case with all websites, however my 7 year old desk top - which is connected to the same wireless Internet connection opened up the same page right away, so I don't think it's the Internet, any suggestions?
Use Software Update to update your os and anything else that needs to be updated. Repair permissions and restart your computer when done.
Not sure if your new Mac came with 10.7.2 pre-installed as you make no mention of your os system. -
