上次系統故障,差點要重裝系統。好在找到了一個方法同大家分享。
如果你有了一台蘋果電腦,但還不清楚如何設定Firmware password(類似BIOS密碼,預設是空的),那你還是要瞭解一下。
開機按Alt不松,進RecoveryHD, 再進終端,輸入resetpassword,然後你就可以隨便改掉系統使用者的密碼。所以有空在啟用下吧!
*當你忘記了系統使用者密碼,這個也能救你。
How to enable the Open Firmware Password
On any computer capable of firmware password protection (including Intel-based Macintosh computers), follow these steps:
- For Mac OS X v10.1 to v10.3.9, download and install the Open Firmware Password application, which you can get here.
For Mac OS X v10.4.x, you must use the updated version that can be copied from the software installation disc (located at /Applications/Utilities/ on the disc).
For Mac OS X v10.5.x, start from the Leopard Install DVD and choose Firmware Password Utility from theUtilities menu, then skip to step 5.
- Open the Open Firmware Password application.
- Click the icon to authenticate. Enter an administrator username and password when prompted.
- Click Change.
- Click to select the checkbox for "Require password to change Open Firmware settings", as shown below.
- Type your password in the Password and Verify fields.
- Click OK. A confirmation appears.
- Click lock icon to prevent further changes.
- Choose Quit from the application menu.
