AH, I see your problem now - so it is the Apple account login

you don't have. Sorry I went down the wrong burrow. I actually
don't
know how to recover the Apple Password if it becomes lost. I hope
someone else here can help - I'd like to know too.
I suppose a call to Apple Help may get you along the way to
success but
if you're outside of the Apple Care date not sure if they'll
help.
Kind Regards

Re: [WAMUG] Mac mini
Thanks Peter,
I should have more specific when I fire up I am asked to set
time
and date
etc as I have no password to startup but I need a password to
unlock
to
change date and time which is the one I have forgotten my other
problem is
even though in system preferences it indicates I am connected
to the
net
the network in the top of the page menu is blanked out and when
I
try to
open safari you are not connected to the internet message
appears by
the
way this mac mini is old and running HI sierra.
Regards Bill
