MacBook :: Upgrade To Snow Leopard - Password Reset?
Sep 9, 2009I took my laptop in to a shop to have a new hard drive installed and the guy in the shop upgraded me to Snow Leopard. I then tried to use migration assistant to get my files back off an external HD and it's telling me my password and/or user name is incorrect. Is it possible the guy in the shop changed it? Is there a generic password when you reinstall things? Or do I need to restart my Macbook using the old Leopard disk?

Jun 21, 2012I have about 20 imacs that we are doing a restore on.. my problem is that I have only 2 copies of the Applications DVD and System DVDs... I'd like to bundle a copy of each with each computer when I resell them.. but the Applications DVD is 4.75gb and is too big to fit on a standard DVD using Disk Copy. Is this software online available for download? Or is there a way to make copies of the System and Applications DVDs?

OS X :: Leopard - Admin Reset - Data Recovery From Main User?
Jan 31, 2010Recently I lost my admin identity password and consequently I was unable to trash applications or any file requiring the admin password. And so I reset this by reinstalling the setup (this is a bit of a hack I learned about through Youtube). After rebooting the system I was asked to create a new admin which I did and then I was asked whether I wanted to transfer the data � I answered no to this option.
All my data (files, folders, photos, music, etc. now resides in an identity called Main User. How do I import all this material into my new admin identity or manage this such that all the preferences, bookmarks, Microsoft email user identity and all privileges are restored to how they were before?

OS X :: Factory Reset - Leopard To Snow Leopard
Feb 25, 2010I am selling my 2 year old iMac. It came installed with Leopard 10.5, and I have the original DVD's. I recently (about a month ago), upgraded it to Snow Leopard. I was looking at this site: [URL] To get some ideas on how I can completely reset the system, to almost a factory install. Would I have to follow the steps to a full system install of Leopard, and then install Snow Leopard upgrade? Or can I use the Snow Leopard disk, to directly install that version as the clean install? At the end of the process, I would love to leave the system as "new" as possible.
