New to the forum and already I need some help. Here's my tale of woe-
I purchased a mac mini on eBay and it came with no disks and I don't have the user name or password and apparently now can't get them from the seller. I did a google search and have tried getting into the single user mode (Command + s) and I end up on a page with a black background that runs through prompts and ends with a message that says 'initalization complete.' I have tried typing in the commands suggested in my google search (sh/etc/rc) and it comes back with a 'file unknown' prompt.
What I need to do is be able to get in so I can set a new user name and password, and I don't have the disks. Can anyone help?
thank you
