Howdy I just picked up a couple of Lc-IIIs at a local school auction. I'd like to clean them up and give them to my grandkids for Christmas. The problem is I don't have the administrator passwords for either machine.
I did a search on the internet and found instructions to reset Root passwords. That procedure involves holding "command-s" during the boot process and getting into the text based single user mode. Other instructions follow, but the keyboards I have do not have a "command" key. I've tried holding down the key with the apple on it and the s key, as well as all of the other non-alphabetical or non-numerical keys. Is there a way to get into the single user text mode? And if it isn't obvious by now, I know NOTHING about Apple products in general or Macintosh in particular THANKS!!!
