Q: Response to Klaus1 with regard to forgetting password on iMac...THANKS.

Unfortunately, when I was given this Mac, I was given NO discs so when turning on the computer, I can't even get past anything to get to a menu at all.   May have to wipe it again!  Ugh.  I hadn't migrated much yet at all...but cannot believe I forgot the password.  I didn't even log the password in my password list.  Won't happen again!  Thanks, though.

 

I have no idea which OS I'm running and I obviously don't know the lingo there either.    My first Mac and I am not use to it yet.

 

Thank you for trying!
