el_g0rillo Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 While installing firefox my on my iDeneb 10.5.6 setup, I keep getting an error "You must type an administrator's name and password to make changes to Installer" which is odd because I am absolutely certain that that I am entering the correct password. Also, when I enter the wrong password intentionaly I get "Sorry, you entered an invalide username or password" Any ideas on how to rectify the situation?

If that doesn't work try installing firefox on a new admin account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY Mike Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 You'll have to insert your disk and hunt around for a utility to change the password. I remember hearing of some sort of way of changing the admin password that way. Wouldn't hurt to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
