Hello I need some help I forgot my password and I cannot get into my computer. I have a Macintosh 9.2.2 And I forgot my password I do not have the disk so I cannot reset my password that way. Is there any way? I know that in Xp you can push F8 but I tried this with the mac and it does not work (Obviously) So can someone please help me Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the Help Sm I will try the command thing. I thought I would never get into the computer again. I was looking everywhere for the answer to my question but only got help for Mac Osx Thanks again for the help.


Oh man it did not work? I hold down the Apple key and the S while it is starting up and it does nothing. Once again I have a Mac 9.2.2 or just 9.2 and also is it me? Am I doing something wrong?

Well I'm glad to hear you regained use of your computer, I just wanted to comment to any people who may be reading this thread that Saint Micheal's method only works on mac os X. Os 9 didn't even have a terminal to get to in the gui and you had to run the comp under root which was super annoying.
