Hi guys.I recently bought a second hand mac that was advertised via paper. But he didnt give me any software with it. I turn it onand it asks me for the login and password. I tried to contact the man but hes yet to return my emails. THe computer is legit as it has all the invoices etc. What can i do to login? ANY help will be very much appreciated. THanks a lot.

I suggest you get the OSX installation CD insert the disc hold down on the 'C' key and restart the mac. Hold the 'C' key till it reboot. Here you r booted on the installation disc and you can change password from preference but I suggest you to reinstall the OS.
