[QUOTE="PReine, post: 70271"] My son decided to set a password, and now he can't log in (I hope he learns from this). We have 9.2 (.2?) We can boot with an OS.9.2 install disk, but then what? We tried control-panel>Multiple Users, but it said it need an extension. Multiple Users is in the extensions folder, and when we open it, it says that to use it, put it in the Extensions folder (kinda circular). Somehow, I think the current problem due to booting from the 9.2 install CD is that it puts us in a single-user mode, so multiple users, although it's in the hard disk's extensions folder, isn't loaded... and we can't put it into the extensions on the CD ROM. What now, brown cow? Exactly what did you (trpnmonkey41) mean by "reset the password"? What steps does one take to accomplish this? PReine. P.S. It's an iMac, if that matters. [/QUOTE]
