w762nato Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 My wifes Imac uses no password to keep it simple as possible. I was going to install Myhack on it for building a USB boot stick for a project PC but I get this error: "myHack requires root permissions via sudo to perform the installation. Please enter your password to install" I don't use one and it won't accept a blank field. Any other software has not asked for this or if it did it would accept a blank password field as I have not seen this error before. Does anyone have a tip? The simple solution was to change the Admin password to a word now I will need to enter it anytime the software updates or new Software is installed makes it a pain and just like a PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conti Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Sorry I didn't reply sooner I have been very busy, but yes I was going to suggest 2 things. 1) Setup an Admin password. 2) NEVER use a system without an Admin password, this is very dangerous, having your system hacked is much more of an inconvenance (a potentially serious one) than having to remember a password for administrative tasks.
