This was a lifesaver when my 90 year old mother forget her iMac password (and I forgot that I had created a second admin account on her machine.) After getting locked out of the iMac, we were able to reset it because we were able to get into her iPad (which she forgot the pin to, but fortunately we found it written down.)
