I tried to run ONYX...it comes with my username and then it says Administrator password. I went to apple and changed my I.D. and it isn't working. How do I change the administrators Password.

Thanks for your help

AppleID is NOT the administrator password, so that's not how to go about it. "Administrator" is a privilege status on your machine. If you are an administrator, it's your password it wants. If you are NOT an admin, you need to provide a username and password for an account that is an administrator. I'd suggest just trying your login password first (You DO use a password to start up your machine, right?)
