Agree ! In the new models without CD drive you can hold the ALT key and power on. Then you will get in the restore screen. You can erase the old data and start from scratch again. |
hold down cmd+S (⌘S) on startup and type following command: mount -uw / rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone shutdown -h now power on your macbook and follow the following procedure to create new account. personally tested on macbook G4, Macbook Pro and Macbook white |

it will just boot to normal mode, and welcome screen and then ask USER and PASSWORD. and when i tried to hold ALT + power, it will show PADLOCK icon and asking for PASSWORD again. add me pls , YM kabayan :) i'm willing to bring the unit, or visit your shop and pay your service, just to fix this problem.

doesn`t matter if its late or new or very old model! if it is late OS Lion, you need Recover Image, if OS is older you can use method described in previous post |
No disk Snow Leopard http://www.trickyways.com/2010/06/fo...-without-disk/ simple done on several snow leopards Cheers |

IF THE FIRST STEP OF THE PROCEDURE IS TO ENTER STARTUP MODE (CMD+S) IS NOT WORKING, HOW CAN I PROCEED.???? IS THERE ANY OTHER WAY? CMD+S = NOT WORKING CMD+V = NOT WORKING ALT(OPTION) = NOT WORKING Br. |

Yes :) 1.Take a 8GB USB Key and install Lion dmg on it.(use windows it will take you 15 min to create the usb key) 2.Keep ALT when you hear the mac doing . 3.Choose the USB Thumb with Lion and start on it. 4.Do your job...Better Format and install a proper Lion OS. Voila Good Luck. br, free1600 |

if you have something like this or a spare macbook you can remove password: take out ssd, enable EFI shell and use dmpstore cmd to clear.. or if you just want to remove user account password copy this file myuser.plist. and use DaveGrohl.org / JTR to crack and then proceed from there |
