A friend who runs a local non-profit has a computer his office managerused. She left and he now wants to use the computer but wants to be theowner / administrator of the computer. How does he remove her name and put his own in place? Does he need her password? If so, what if he doesn't have it?
If he has access to an administrative account, he can use it to turn anyone into an administrative user in the Accounts preferences pane. If hers is the only administrative account and he doesn't have her password, then he should boot off the Mac OS X install CD and select 'Reset password' from the installer screen choices. (Those might not be the exact words, but they're something like that.)
