    Serious password issue

    Posted by Roli Rivelino on October 5, 2010 at 10:24 am

    I have OS x 10.5.8 since getting the computer I have just left the admin password as, password.

    But now (in true Mac style) the password seems to have changed itself and I can’t download a program onto my machine.

    I’m hoping someone out there can tell me what to do, please help me before that throbbing vein in my forehead bursts and leaves a horrible mess everywhere.

    many thanks
