Software :: Need To Reset Master Password
Aug 25, 2006I recently purchased a used imac g4 from a friend but I cannot seem to get it started. I tried to log in with the master password but do not have the password or install disk for OSX. I asked my friend about it and he said the same thing, he lost the user and master password including install disk. I took the comp from his hands anyway, it's in new condition and he never really used it, just forgot about it I suppose.
It also seems that on startup the mac searches for disks and servers, so it could of been a part of a network system? I would like to know if there is a way to get into the bios and reset the whole system without password prompts and all that. Which is the best way to do this? I have the mac osx install disk from my ibook but I tried to boot the disk and it's not booting. I also have the install disk for os tiger and that's not booting either. There must be a super secure lock on the system.

OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Resetting Master Password At Login?
May 14, 2012Lately I've been noticing that when logging into our SnowLeopard miniserve after "fat-fingering" the password once, I am prompted to reset the Master Password. When doing this you are also informed that the keychain will be updated. Is there a system level setting that is causing this? It doesn't seem like you should have to reset the Master Password/keychain after one failed attempt to log into the system...?

OS X :: Master Password To Automatically Put In "real" Password?
Aug 27, 2009I use different passwords for EV-RY-THING. For safety mainly.
I was wondering if there's a way to make "keychain" remember all the passwords so like.. when I start putting in the email/ user name then it'll automatically know which I am seeking access too?
I have around 40 accounts on miscellaneous things... Facebook, Ebay, Gmail, different forums, etc...
Example..
I have multiple Live ID'S/ Gmails/ Myspaces(whatever, just multiple ID's somewhere)... can I make it so as soon as I start entering the email, it'll autofill/ put in the password?
How can I make keychain FORCE remember data?
ITunes :: How Does A Family Share Account Without Sharing Master Password
Jun 14, 2012Is there any way to avoid having to give my password to my daughter? I have had the same AppleID for many years, and it also my email address, so I would prefer not to share the password with all of my family. As far as I can tell, I can not change my AppleID associated with my iTunes account.I do want my daughter to be able to download apps or updates to existing apps even when she is not with me, but that doesn't seem possible without sharing passwords. It would be great if iTunes allowed "sub-accounts."

Intel Mac :: Password Not Recognized After Time Machine Restore?
Mar 20, 2012Hard drive recently failed. Replaced hard drive and used Time Machine to recreate system. Everything seems ok, but I cannot install software. It prompts for a password, as it always has, but the system is rejecting my password as invalid. This is the same password I have had for years (yes..i know). I cannot figure out how to reset it since it doesn't recognize the original password.

Apr 7, 2008 I use Time Machine to back up my data and am very satisfied but have one problem with it. Is there anyway to password protect the backed up data or even the entire external hard drive?
My user account is password protected but it appears as if anyone who has physical access to my external hard drive can access all of my information. If this is the case, how can I protect my data?
