My sister is taking my comp for the summer, I wanna turn off all passwords, or erase it, so there is no possible way she can hit sometyhing and turn it on or anything, I tried to just change them all to a blank but it didnt let me do that, tried inserting teh first os x instal disk, but that didnt work either, what am i doing wrong?
 
bad idea. just set all of them to somthing that she knows or can remember. Your computer will become insecure and bad if you do this. :eek:
 
since mac os x is built on unix you cant evade the passwords. you can turn of logging in but that is far as you will get. just pick an easy password and make sure she remember it and your good to go.
