Have a local Mac store? Stop by and talk to someone at the Genius
Bar. Quite often not geniuses per se, but do know their Mac stuff and
this would be a walk in the park for them. Further - if you don\'t
have a local Mac store, call support.

It sounds like you need to reset the stored Keychain password and the
stored login password. I don\'t have a Mac anymore, but they should
both be easy to find under the "System Preferences" (I think that\'s
what its called...its equivalent to Control Panel).
