Reset Password
So my dad bought an iMac from my mom, but she does not know the admin password anymore. I read on the apple forums that I should look here for help on resetting the password. The iMac runs OSX 10.6.3. I would really appreciate any help. Thanks

Hi,
I reset my password couple of times. On both the occasions, I get the message that the password is reset and it would be mailed to you. But I have never received the mail. Could you please let me know my password so that I can login.
My user id is ranj@tcs.
Thanks,

Jifty::Plugin::Authentication::Password::Mixin::Model::UUser3Contributed Perl DocuJifty::Plugin::Authentication::Password::Mixin::Model::User(3pm)
NAME
Jifty::Plugin::Authentication::Password::Mixin::Model::User - password plugin user mixin model
SYNOPSIS
package MyApp::Model::User;
use Jifty::DBI::Schema;
use MyApp::Record schema {
# custom column definitions
};
use Jifty::Plugin::User::Mixin::Model::User; # name, email, email_confirmed
use Jifty::Plugin::Authentication::Password::Mixin::Model::User;
# ^^ password, auth_token
DESCRIPTION
This mixin model is added to the application's account model for use with the password authentication plugin. This mixin should be used in
combination with Jifty::Plugin::User::Mixin::Model::User.
SCHEMA
This mixin adds the following columns to the model schema:
auth_token
This is a unique identifier used when confirming a user's email account and recovering a lost password.
password
This is the user's password. It will be stored in the database after being processed through Digest::MD5, so the password cannot be
directly recovered from the database.
METHODS
register_triggers
Adds the triggers to the model this mixin is added to.
password_is PASSWORD
Checks if the user's password matches the provided PASSWORD.
hashed_password_is HASH TOKEN
Check if the given HASH is the result of hashing our (already salted and hashed) password with TOKEN.
This can be used in cases where the pre-hashed password is sent during login as an additional security precaution (such as could be done
via Javascript).
validate_password
Makes sure that the password is six characters long or longer, unless we have alternative means to authenticate.
after_create
This trigger is added to the account model. It automatically sends a notification email to the user for password confirmation.
See Jifty::Plugin::Authentication::Password::Notification::ConfirmEmail.
has_alternative_auth
If your model supports other means of authentication, you should have this method return true, so the "password" field can optionally be
null and authentication with password is disabled in that case.
after_set_password
Regenerate authentication tokens on password change
regenerate_auth_token
Generate a new auth_token for this user. This will invalidate any existing feed URLs.
