Mac Pro :: Refuses To Allow Password Entry?

Aug 26, 2014

If mac is left running overnight sometimes on trying to awaken it, The Password entry screen does not allow me to key in anything... 

USERNAME is onscreen, cursor/I-beam is blinking in Password Box, my mouse can move the cursor arrow around the screen,. I can position this in the Password Box but no action when I click..Forced to switch off at the box... 

This has not always been the case. Mac is  infrequently left on overnight, so I cannot attribute any software update or installation as the trigger for this behaviour.MacPro on OS 10.6

Info:
Xserve, Mac OS X (10.6.8), client macminis, and MacPros

IMac :: IMac I7 Faster Than Entry Mac Pro

Nov 12, 2009

Actually don't want to fuel any ongoing debate but to call attention on that both machines offer some points more or less about the same raw processor perfmormance on its 'stock' offering by apple (this means, in practice, the i7 comes with 1 GB more RAM):

MacPro Base Early 2009 (Xeon 2.66 4 cores, $2499):

iMac i7 ($2199):

source: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=818833

That said there a of course real life diffrences and diffrent targets, expandability replacements being the pro's main advantage, a bigger HD, more RAM, 27" monitor going for the iMac... all said I think the new iMac has given the permormance everyone expects from a current generation desktop computer, I'm waiting for the quads to be ready available here in Mexico to make the move , congrats to the new owners!

OS X :: How To Access Computer To Reset Password

Dec 7, 2010

I got this Mac pro with osx. It's a old business computer, so I don't have the login password for the user or administrator. I had this installation CD, and it worked fine when I tried holding "c" down while restarting the computer. But I couldn't fix the problem at the moment so I turned it of again. Now it won't start up as usual with the "Choose language menu" so I can't get access to the computer. I really don't know why it does it, and I'm so lost right now. How do I get access to the computer now, and reset the computer and password?
