Hello Kappy,Thank you for your help, Im not able to see "the downward pointing arrow button".... Can you help me out ? Thank You
Thank you very much for you help, but still no solution... :/
If you hold down the option key while booting, you should see "Macintosh HD" (or whatever you call your drive) and "Recovery Disk" (or "Recovery" something - I haven't used it too often). There is an arrow under both of the otions, you want to click the arrow on the Recovery drive. Alternately, you can just hold down the Command and R keys while booting an you will be booted into the Recovery partition.
Once there, just go under the Utilities menu and open Terminal. At the $ prompt just type
resetpassword
and an application will open allowing you to reset the passwords for any user account.
Pretty much the same as Kappy said... try it.
