I have an old fruit-flavored iMac that I bought on eBay for $100. iTunes wanted to update itself, and I said OK. But now it wants a password that apparently was set by the original owner before it will update. How can I bypass this?

After installing the most recent security update for OS X, my PowerBook G4 no longer boots. I've gone through the generic troubleshooting steps on Apple's site, and even paid for the phone support, but couldn't get any better answer than "Archive and Install," which I can't do due to lack of free space. Please help me fix this hopefully simple problem. [more inside]

Recent problems with my iBook make me wonder if I am looking at major problems. Last week, software update failed to install the security upgrade & the recent iTunes update. Now, instead of the Mac log in screen, I get a Darwin/BSD full screen console log in screen. I am running OSX 10.4.5 on a G3 750Mhz w/640Mb RAM. I know how to troubleshoot PCs, but Macs ae like women to me--beautiful but inscrutible. Any help? (for the Mac problem only please).
