admin password necessary for "A Basic Guide to migrate to Mac-Intel?

I will not be setting up a new mac tomorrow, and I read this guide. A Basic Guide to the migration of files from one computer to another

The person whose Mac is probably does not know the password and certainly do not have a disc of Tiger. (She may have a disc of snow leopard)

1 you need the admin password to copy these files?

In your folder/Home /: records Documents, movies, music, photos and websites. In your folder/Library / / Home:

/ Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy whole folder)
/ Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy whole folder)

Also in the Home/Library/Application Support (copy everything that you need, including records for applications of third party) / home/library/keychains (copy the whole folder)
/ Home/Library/Mail (copy whole folder)
/ Home/Library/Preferences / (copy the whole folder)
/ Home/Library/calendars (copy the whole folder)
/ Home/Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder)
/ Home/Library/Safari (copy whole folder)

/ Home/Library/Fonts
/ Home/Library/Widgets

/ Home/Library/Syndication (Tiger) or/Home/Library/PubSub (Leopard)<>
/ Home / / Library/Internet Plug-ins

2. for the key ring file, I read that there are problems with the import and export of passwords key ring. If I just copy the old folder to the new folder location, which should work?

Thank you!

If they, or you can connect, then you or they should be able to copy anything in the folder.

    Hello

    Can someone please help me to reset my BIOS admin password.  I know it's stupid, but when I got my laptop 5 years ago for some silly reason, I thought it was a good idea to set an admin password.   5 years later, I need to change my setting of virtualization in the BIOS and surprise!  I'm stuck with absolutely no idea what password I used.

    The "System off" code I get is: 67600648.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.  My eternal thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read my post and use a part of his personal time to help me solve my problem.  I am really grateful for that.

    Do you mean you forgot all the passwords for administrative accounts for Mac?

    All you have to do is to go into System Preferences > Parental controls and click on the padlock in the lower left and admin user and password and then click on the device in the lower left corner and disable Parental control for the selected user

    Hello

    I forgot the password of my printer (HP Color Laserjet M274n MFP Pro) network. can you please help me how can I recover the password or how I can reset this printer.

    Thank you.

    Hi @Alvin03,

    Welcome to the community of HP.

    I understand that you have forgotten the administrator password for your HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M274n and want to reset it.  I'll be happy to help you.

    I'll message you private instructions you need to do. Note that reset will clear your wireless settings, then you may need to reconnect to your network when you have finished resetting. (It's like the printer out of box at that point).
     
    Let me know if it helps.
     
    Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support. Have a great day!

  • I changed my admin password and he forgot what I do? I don't have a DVD for windiws 7.

    My laptop came with Windows 7 installed, I changed my admin password and he forgot what I do? I do not have the Windows 7 DVD and blocks for computer laptop while I try to ask password that I do not remember.

    See the guide to recovering lost password Windows 7 Home Premium account user, can't connect, connection problem

    Him begins the article with some basic steps you can take and then work upwards through more complicated methods where the easiest do not solve the problem. Please read the intro, but I think it will be the 8 method which solves your problem. Follow the precautionary measures later in the thread as well.

    You could be up & running again within an hour, probably less.

    If you have any questions, post it here; I'll keep an eye on your question.

  • An admin password for thousands of accounts on a website... Is there any Add on Manager password that it inserts automatically for any username?

    I am a support agent and I got a task that requires the connection to 4000 + user accounts with my admin password. After you enter the password manually for the 150th time I started to wonder if there is a better way to do it.

    Is there any password manager that will automatically put the same password - all - user name on a specific Web site?

    Update:
    I just found an auto with the password field: https://addons.mozilla.org/uk/firefox/addon/autofill-262804/ , it was easier than I thought.

    jscher2000, cor - el, I thank very you much for pushing me in the right direction.

  • I FORGOT the ADMIN PASSWORD FOR - (WEB PAGE) - HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One Printer - N911g

    Hi all

    I changed my network SSID & PW but I forgot the password for the printer web page.

    Password was written in a notebook and notebook is moved at the moment by the cleaning person.

    Please HELP! Is there anyway I can reset the printer so that the admin password is also re-set. I try to reinstall the software printers, also I am not able to change the ip address and right now, there is no ip address... get no link and no ip address and no network... Please anyone who can help... Please help.

    * I read some part... to power off the printer, then press the power button on... and continue pressing the back button where he would have, for some time the printer is back back (it was to reset the printer)... which is about 23 times... zero.

    I really want to THANK you ALL for READING THIS & YOUR TIME. So please help if you can...

    and ideas?

    Thank you, xxVEGASxx

    * xxVEGASxx *.

    You can do a reset of the printer using the LED screen on the printer.

    Select Configuration, then Tools, then restore the default settings. "Restore default settings" is the last element of the list and you will have to scroll down to see it.

    Which erases all settings, including the password for the printer.

    To reset you describe is probably the one mentioned in this article:

    http://resetprinters.com/how-to-reset-the-HP-OfficeJet-Pro-8600-premium-all-in-one-printer/

    but it's probably a deeper reset that you really need anyway.

    Hello

    You can remove the need for a password as follows.

    Shut down the laptop.  Now on TAP the ESC key as soon as you press the power button to access the start menu, then select f10 to open the Bios menu.  Use the arrows to select the Security tab and press ENTER.  Use the arrow keys again to select the password option and press ENTER.  Enter the current password and then the new password, simply leave this blank and press on enter - do the same for the confirmation field.  Press f10, select this option to save the new settings and press to enter.

    Kind regards

    I did not use my PC for a while and have forgotten my user name and password.  It is now necessary for me to install software on this PC, but need to log-in to do this.  How can I better log-int?

    The software is now located on my desktop but cannot be put to use; apparently because it is not installed in a suitable place in my computer.  Using the Guest login does not work since the installation of this software is not allowed in the comments section.  Your ideas will be appreciated.

    Do you mean that a password is required immediately after you turn on the computer or when you arrive at the Welcome to Windows screen? If the first case, it is a BIOS password and how you disable it depends on what type of computer you have. If the latter:
