Hi,

I'm not sure why you would want to revert to a previous date but change the date on the machine and reboot

As for your administrator password, on all bootable OS X install discs there is a utility called "Password Reset" that is found in the top menu bar. Boot from your OS X install disc and select "Password Reset" from either the 'File" or Utilities" option in the top menu bar depending on which disc you have. Select the correct user and enter a new password. Reboot to the hard drive and your new password will be in effect.

NB.
For ease of use the password can be left blank.

Hope this helps,

David.
