A simple way to change the password of a user is to boot into single user mode in the mac. This requires a cmd-s upon startup. This will launch the command line.
In earlier versions you then mount the root filesystem read/write
-> mount -uw /
Then change the password.
-> passwd username
In later versions of OS X you mount the filesystem read/write then
-> launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.opendirectoryd.plist
-> passwd username
Exit and you are done.
Joey Stardust Digital Marketing Pioneer | Tech Entrepreneur | Editor-in-ChiefA web enthusiast since the dawn of the digital age (1984), I've left my mark across multiple industries. As Editor-in-Chief of TooSquare Magazine (featured on Wikipedia), I shaped tech and culture discourse during the internet's formative years. My technical roots run deep as the creator of Wurm Mud, an influential DIKU/ROM-based MUD source code that powered early online communities.My entrepreneurial journey includes founding InterZ0n3 Coffee Shop (a hacker-space café before its time) and launching Daddy Zero Clothing, blending subculture with streetwear. Today, I channel this diverse experience into The Real Social Company, where we combine old-school digital wisdom with cutting-edge social media marketing, SEO, and conversion-focused web design.Four decades in tech have taught me this: The platforms change, but the fundamentals of authentic engagement remain constant. Let's use that knowledge to make your brand impossible to ignore.
