How do I get a new Administrator password for my computer?I was trying to change the password on my computer. I have done this before under "System Preferences", then "Security and Privacy". So I entered my old password, and then entered the new one...twice as always and THEN I don't know what I did, but a window popped up that I didn't finish reading completely because as I was in a hurry I accidentally hit 'enter' and that did something.. now my computer does not accept my password. I've tried both the old and new one.

I have a mid-2009, 2.66 GHz MacBook Pro (MacBookPro5,3). The computer has dual graphics chipsets, an NVidia 9400m and 9600M GT, both with 256 MB of VRAM. To change between the two, the user must select which one he or she wants to use. However, that user must have administrator privileges.Â
I am not the administrator. Is there a way I can have the graphics system permanently set to the higher-performance chipset, because the system seems to automatically default to the 9400m. It is annoying to contact my administrator every time I need to run a high performance game or aggressively use SketchUp, Final Cut, etc.Â

So this morning I changed my OS X password and didn't write it down anywhere. It was something pretty random, and I don't know if I'd even recognize it if I thought of it. I know, I know, I'm an idiot and didn't do anything right here. I'm the only user on this computer, don't have a master password set up, and don't have my install disc for another month and a half (due to my AmeriCorps program I'm moving around a lot and didn't bring it traveling with me). Is there anything I can do short of taking it to an Apple Store?

A few weeks ago I started getting some error messages from my AEBS that I have a couple of HDDs and a printer attached to.
After a long talk with Apple Support the problem mostly went away but now whenever I try to access my AEBS disks from the shared panel in finder is is gives me "connection failed" and I have to click on "Connect As" and enter my password.
The real problem is that no matter what I do I cannot get my keychain to remember the password.
