I have an original Snow Leopard CD somewhere, but I cannot for the life find it or else I'd just reinstall. So I'm asking if there's anyway I can do a total reset of the OS to remove the user name and password?
I bought a second hand MacBook Core 2 Duo 2.4ghz but the owner didn't give me the password to the main account so I could install/delete old junk she had laying around. I've tried calling her up, but I just get her answering machine.
So until I can find my OS X disc or until I can "reset" the OS, I'm stuck using the guest account with severely limited access to the MacBook.
Appreciate the help, did do a quick search but couldn't find anything that matched this question.
**Edit**
I found a way to reset the password, for anyone who comes across this post in the future the answer is here: Link
