Hi, lovette,
I'd advise a system restore. if the seller has provided you with the recovery
software for the machine (OS X and the ilife system, etc) then you're good to
go.
I advise this for two reasons. 1: data protection 2: a clean installation is
much better than an nstall where settings
Unfortunately I do not have any softwre or backup. He apparently did reformate
and rreinstall things. I wish I knew now what I did not when I got the lap top.
I love the mac now but feel awkward about this password thing.

Hi, lovette,
OK let's see what can be done here.
you say that when you try to make system changes and need to lock or unlock and
it asks for a password. stupid question but did you try just hitting enter on
the password. there's a chance there's no password but it always asks for one
as normal, no matter

He may have said there is no password but from what I understand you can't
set up a mac
to activate.

He may have said there is no password but from what I understand you can't
set up a mac without a password. I'd ask again to be sure otherwise you may
be reinstalling OSX yourself
