[help] forgot admin p/w 10.2.4

[Mav451]

Hi guys, kind of a stupid question. Just yesterday, when I connected to the 'Net, it tells me I got a TON of updates (to get to 10.2.8). I say, ok, but then it asks for my p/w--and then it hits me. Since getting the iBook several weeks ago, I have now forgotten the p/w!

Well, going through help tells me to put in OSX disc and say "reset p/w"...unfortunately all I have in the box is the "upgrade" install 10.3 discs

Will these function as an "OSX disc" that will let me reset my p/w? Or am I out of luck?

try using the 10.3 disks, in the menu's (I don't remember exactly where) there is a password reset option.

You should have the restore disks if you bought the computer from Apple, they will definitely have the password reset utility.

well, my friend helped me out with it, and now my p/w is changed
