My sister purchased a powerbook g4 from a pawn shop. It has a password on it. How can I reset the powerbook to factory defaults without the install cds? Will this remove the password and computer name etc? Also, can Snow Leopard or Lion be installed on a powerbook once that is done? Thanks.
PowerBook, Mac OS X (10.4.11)
1. You can't. Phone Apple Support and order replacement disks, or use a retail Mac OS X 10.4 or 10.5 DVD, or contact the people it was bought from.
2. See #1.
3. No.
