			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the easiest way to <a href="/tag/security"><strong>secure your computer</strong></a> from the prying  co-worker’s eyes is to set a <strong>screensaver password</strong>. But if often leave  your computer in a short moment only to repeatedly type the password,  this simple security system could be annoying. <a href="/snow-leopard">Snow Leopard</a> let the  users decide how long should the <strong>screensaver</strong> (or sleep mode) run before  you need to type in the password.<br />
So if a user goes for a glass of water  in the dispenser, he/she can continue right away.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To reset your OS X password without an OS X CD you have two ways<br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-531" title="reset password shortcuts" src="http://www.mymacosx.com/files/2010/02/080309-resetpassword.jpg" alt="" width="250" height="140" /></p>
<h3>First Way &#8220;create a new admin account&#8221;</h3>
<ol>
<li>Reboot</li>
<li><strong>Hold apple + s down</strong> after you hear the chime.</li>
<li>When you get text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a  brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
<ul>
<li>mount -uw /</li>
<li>rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone</li>
<li>shutdown -h now</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>After rebooting you should have a brand new admin account. When you  login as the new admin you can simply delete the old one and you’re good  to go again!</li>
</ol>
<h3>Second way &#8220;Resetting or changing your existing password&#8221;</h3>
<p>If you&#8217;ve ever forgotten your user account password in OS X, All you need is to remember your username (you do remember that, right?) and then reboot your computer.</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Hold apple + s down</strong> after you hear the chime.</li>
<li>sh /etc/rc</li>
<li>passwd yourusername</li>
<li>reboot</li>
</ol>
<p>P.S. The only major downside to resetting your password this way is that you&#8217;ll lose all keychain passwords,</p>
