I don't think many people here will know anything. I'm guessing that your best bet is google or a new OS. Sorry bro, have you tried google yet?

For a Mac based question go to the MacNN forums. http://forums.macnn.com/
Ask there, there will be some MacNazzi that will help you out.

Just don't accept any advice on Macs from a guy called Tnproud2B (trust me)

I gathered that he wanted to gain administrator rights so he could set up a network connection at home.

The sites that SS and TH provided should be of some service.

Yes. I'm going to a public forum to discuss all about my crimnal plans because I'm a total friggin idiot. I fit in well here, apparently.

There in nothing illegal about hacking your own computer to recover an admin password. Airhead.

unacceptable tone! Why would you take offense to that?
He was only protecting you, and the site, and the site owner. Please tell me your tone was in jest.

but that is just beside the point.

JUST BECAUSE I SAID THAT MY SCHOOL SUPPLIES ME WITH A MACINTOSH COMPUTER AND THAT I WANT TO REMOVE THE ADMIN PASSWORD DOES NOT, IN ANY MEANS, SUGGEST THAT I "LIKE MACS".

listen up i was just messin with the weazel. and if u guys want to take it as an insult then that is fine with me. im just letting it be known that that was my intentions.

its all good man...i was hoping this wasnt true.......perhaps i jumped the gun and rely way too much on digital smilies for emotion......if i had heard the tone fo your voice......im sure i wouldnt have said that.....lol

no dont go anywhere man to be honest you have a lot of great input to this site and i was disappointed to think you were upset with something one of us said.....=]

no harm done here ........i took it the wrong way........i learned a lesson in this.....please accept my humblest apology..........
