Hi,

 

I just bought a used iMac and the admin name and password are still on it from the previous owner.

 

Can I change them and if so, how do I do it?

 

Thanks

 

PS it's a late 2006 running osx lion 10.7.5

Due to the fact that we cannot verify the truthfulness of your request, we cannot offer any other help to recover any passwords for any system or software installed on your (or anyone Else's) computer. You may very well be asking for legitimate help in a legitimate situation but we cannot be sure of this. For all we know you could be a child trying to get into a parent's account or worse, someone trying to gain access to information that you have been explicitly denied access to by someone of higher authority. If you have any problems with this please contact a Moderator or an Admin
