Need to master password and need to run install dvd

For some reason it is not accepting my admin password, then it takes me to the master password, after i enter it if asked me if i want to reset admin password. I click yes, then it asked for new password and to verify and no matter what i enter it does not accept it. strange. So I guess I need to run the disk that came with computer to change the master password but all I get when I start computer is logg in screen..how do i run disk on start up before logg in screen?
Id appreciate any help, thanx in advance.

Insert the install disk that came with your Mac, restart the Mac, and hold down the "c" key until you see the "spinning gear" boot icon.
Regards.

    How can I find password to Apple TV? I have forgotten password and need it to activate AirPlay. Thanks!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Which password is it that you are looking for. If it is your airplay password, simply turn the password off in the airplay settings on the Apple TV and then turn it back on again and enter a new password.

  • HT1752 I have forgotten my admin password and need to create another user

    I have forgotten my admin password and need to create another user. Have no disks to boot from!!

    You need an installer disc in order to reset an admin password. I don't know if the following will work on your system, but give it a try:
    You can also reset the password by printing out (or writing down) and carefully following these steps.
    First, find the short name of the admin user on the machine. The easiest way of doing this is by looking at what their directory is called in the Users folder.
    Now, start up the computer while holding down Cmd-S. It should boot into a command line. (If it doesn't, you may need to reset the firmware password, which is detailed elsewhere.)
    Type these exact lines:
    mount -uw /
    ifconfig lo0 up
    cd /var/db/netinfo
    netinfod -s local
    Now you'll need that short name. (You did write it down, didn't you?) Type "passwd", a space, and the short name of the admin. For example, if the admin was - rather prosaically - called "admin", you'd type "passwd admin".
    The computer will now prompt you to change the password for "admin" (or whatever the short name was). Go ahead and type a new password.
    Now, type:
    sync
    reboot
    and the machine will reboot. The admin password should now be changed.

    Ask the store for a local Macintosh Users Group / Club... maybe someone there can help you. You might check pawn shops in the area for a machine that has a full set of disks. Apple will sell/mail you a set. I don't know of anyplace to legitimately download them... For what its worth any commercial (e.g. full retail version) install of OS X on disk should work for your machine.

  • Please help me get my laptop back someone has cracked the master password and is running multiple operating systems which I have no access to

    Okay so I am not a computer expert by any means and have no clue how to fix my system. My father worked for intel for over 20 years as an engineer I asked him to restore my laptop to its original factory state and instead he cracked the master password
    installed multiple operating systems and made himself the administrator or domain controller. Many features and options I do not have access to so reading the trouble shooting and going through the steps always leads me to a dead end. The laptop is TOSHIBA
    SATELLITE L875D-S7332 a6 VISION AMD WINDOWS 8. As far as I can see my profile is actual running a version of windows 7. I do see reference to a windows 8RT windows 2003 windows vista wow64 and 32 I don't know what all that means I would just like to know how
    wipe everything and get back to the factory condition I bought it in. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated

    Do you have Win 7 installation disk? If yes, then go ahead and format the laptop if you don't need any data. If you need the data it it, then copy the same to USB disk and format it. Removing OS and deleting these things will anyhow keep some remains on
    HDD. TO get the speed and performance back, you might need a fresh installation.

  • Keyfigure is attribute of Master data and need to add at cube level

    Hi,
    We have requirment that need to make report out of Cube and in the report all the fields are comming out of the cube .But one key figure which is not in the cube and need to be there in the report.It is the attribute of sales org.
    Sales org is existing in our cube .
    Please currect me if i am wrong.i am planning to add the new key figure in the cube and will populate the data using upgdate rules.
    Thing is we have upgraded system into Technical BI7.0 from BW 3.x now.If i am going to add the keyfigure in the cube then i have to move the existing data into dummy cube and enhance the existing cube with new keyfigure and write update rules.Do i go for Transformation or Update rules.
    The exsiting cube has Transfer rules and infosource and update rules
    Please some one can advise me in this

    Hi,
    i dont think there is need for including the kf in cube and doing the update rules routine stuff.
    you can directly use the KF from the attribute of the master data in the query.
    PLease go thru the following link. This is applicable with 7.0 also

  • I had to change my password, and need to change my security questions, as they are wrong. Apple won't let me change the security questions unless I answer the old ones, which I cannot do. Suggestions please for how I can change my security questions.

    I had to change my password and did so succesfully, but cannot change my original security questios. To make new security questions, Apple wants me to answer my old security questions, which I cannot do to their satisfaction, as my answers do not match their answers on file. Is there a way to change my security questions without being able to answer my orignal questions first?

    Why not? If you're the owner then you should know your own question/answer combination as you created them.

  • After resetting my master password and setting up a new one, Firefox no longer accepts any sort of password...help?

    in a little more depth: at first the master password popup would ask me for my password, and then it would get stuck in a loop of continually asking me to enter the pw (it would apparently accept it, I never got a wrong pw error or anything like that). Now it never even prompts me for the master pw, and I cant set it to remember passwords for ANY sites. I am currently running Firefox 7.0.1 on Fedora 15

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files key3.db and signons.sqlite that store the encrypted names and passwords in Firefox.<br />
    Rename the files key3.db and signons.sqlite in the Firefox profile folder.<br />
    You can add .old to the file names (key3.db.old and signons.sqlite.old) or move them to another folder to make it possible to undo the action.<br />
    You need to set a new Master Password after renaming or deleting key3.db and all currently saved passwords are lost.<br />
    If that has worked then you can remove the renamed files that are no longer needed.

  • Difference between Activating Master Data and Attribute Change Run

    Hi
    Is there any difference between Atribute change run and Activating Master data functionaaly???
    if wha it is???
    can any one explain clearly?
    Thanks
    Chinna

    When u load master data and its attribute to ur data target and if u change any data or attributes of ur master data,in order to update new data to ur data target attribute change run is performed.
    When u create a characteristic and if u keep it as master data and activated..it is master data activation
    Activating Master Data
    When you update master data from an SAP system the master data is imported in an inactive state. You must activate the new master data so that it can be accessed and used for reporting purposes.
    For more information, see Versioning Master Data.
    Choose the path InfoObject Tree Context Menu of Corresponding Characteristic Activate Master Data.
    Upon Activation there are two scenarios to choose from:
    The Corresponding Master Data Is Already Being Used in Aggregates in the InfoCube:
    If you are already using the available master data in aggregates in InfoCubes, you cannot activate the master data individually. In this case, proceed as follows:
    1. In the main menu, choose the path Tools Hierarchy/Attribute Change.
    2. Proceed as described in System Response upon Changes to Data: Aggregate.
    The system now automatically restructures and activates the master data and its aggregates.
    Please note that this process can take several hours if the volume of data is relatively high. Therefore, you should simultaneously activate all of the characteristics that are affected by changes to their master data, at regular intervals.
    The Corresponding Master Data Is Not Used in Aggregates:
    Choose the path InfoObject Tree ® Context Menu of Corresponding Characteristic Activate.
    The system now automatically activates the master data so that it can be used directly in reporting.
    If there is any change r newly added records in master data..then that particular data will not b avialable for the reporting unless u do activate master data...
    if u r using aggregates and then there is any change in master data ...then that particular master data change wil not b available for the reporting unless u do arrtibute change run for that info object.(T-code RSATTR)
    Master data attributes and hierachies are used in cube aggregates also. So to do update the latest master data attributes values in the aggregtes attribute change run need to be performed.So Attribute change run also updates the master data attributes in aggregates which is not apart of master data activation.
    Text loads do not need attribute change run. Attributes, hierarchies and aggregates need attribute/hierarchy change runs. If you do not have aggregates, just activating the master data is same as attribute change run.

  • How can change my Master Password. I am running OS X 10.8.5

    I fear that my Password may have been compromised while working with a technical expert to set up an air printer.  How can I change my Master password. I am not very computer savvy, but need to feel secure. 

    If FileVault isn't enabled, there is no Master Password. If you forgot it, you're in trouble. If you want to change it, disable and re-enable FileVault, then choose a new password. If you want to change you administrator / user password, follow the directions above.
