I feel even embarased to make such a question but i really have a huge problem.
My keyboard is broken so i went and bought a microsoft wireless desktop for Mac.
Im trying to install the software and Installer requires the admin password which-obviously i cant type through my old nor new keyboard.
Could u please help me with this?What could i do to finish the installation and be able to use the new keyboard?
Thank u in advance

Can you copy and paste the characters for your password using the mouse?

Don't be embarrassed, it's can happen to anyone.

You may want to try using the Keyboard Viewer to enter the password on-screen. Do this:

Go to Apple menu > System Preferences > International

Click the "Input Menu" tab at the top, and then check the box labeled "Keyboard Viewer".

You'll notice in the upper-right corner of the menu bar (next to the clock), there will be a small picture of a flag. Click on it, and choose "Show Keyboard Viewer".

This will open an on-screen keyboard which with you can use to type your password in.
