Turn off the computer. After it is completely shut down hit the power button while holding "command s" Once all the text has loaded tip the following without the "" marks and with the spaces in mind. Also enter is just hitting enter and not typing enter.
1. "sbin/fsck -y" then hit enter
2. "sbin/mount -wu /" then hit enter
3. "cd /var/db/" then hit enter
4. "ls" then hit enter (notice this is a lowercase L)
5. "rm. ./.AppleSetupDone" then hit enter
6. "ls" then hit enter (again a lowercase L)
7. "reboot" then hit enter and wait.
When your mac starts up the next time it will be tricked into thanking its new and make you go through the info process. This will create another admin account. When you log into the account that you have just created you can go to system preferences -> accounts -> then select the account that you forgot the password to and hit change password. Then log into the previous account and delete that account that you just created and walla!!! You now have a password that works.
