    Man this is no hack. This is an Apple procedure that if you can AppleCare they will give you. LOL. After doing this if the user had filevault activated, try to get into his files lol

    Hello I bought my macbook from craigslist. The guy I got it from changed the password in front of me however I don’t think that changed the admin password. Before I call him if I can find the # does this change the admin password also? Thanks mike
