| Tiger upgrade I have an iBook that my boss gave me and it's listed as an Administrator's Computer. But I have my own log in and am now finally thinking of upgrading to Tiger. However, the "administrator" has left our company and I wonder if I will have to have an administrator password to install and upgrade to Tiger? (I haven't needed it to install other applications but this would be major.) Thanks  |

| The Tiger install DVD has a feature that will let you reset the administrator password. Just boot into the Tiger install DVD and when you're into the installer, you'll notice a menu at the top of the screen. On this menu is an option to reset the master/admin password.

| Thanks. But does that mean I have to have the original administrator password in order to reset it? Because I don't have access to that at all. He's long gone and with it, his password. |
