Sometimes all thats needed is a restart if a disk wont eject because “its in use”
If your Mac starts up with and you try to login and you’ve forgotten your password, you will need the OS X CD/DVD that came with your mac. Put the Disc in and restart, holding the C key to make sure your Mac boots from the DVD.
Once its restarted and before you are asked to install anything You’ll find a Utilities menu that includes a Reset Password command. Do it, then restart, holding down the left mouse-button.
If you used FileVault Security to encrypt your home folder, then things are a bit different.Because it is unfortunately not possible to over ride the FileVault password…you must never forget it or you will need to reformat your disk and start again.
So surfing around I found this photo, which says it all for me. To be honest I am getting a bit sick of uber cool dudes being used to promote computers. Everyone is so clean and wholesome. The reality is microsoft owns part of Apple, they are both big players producing operating systems. There is a convergence going on. What we want to know is how much willl it cost, not just in money but in time and energy. So much at the moment is given away and the move toward virtual online operating systems is inevitable. In the mean time enjoy this photo.
Recently we have been getting a little fed up with the Mac Finder, yes it has been improved and tweaked to make it run smoother and faster but it still lacks some basics that many people would expect or perhaps used to be in OS 9 (tabbed windows is an example). So we decided to take a look at a few alternatives.
