Patrick explains, I am repeatedly prompted to enter my admin password when I am installing OS X( but I do not use a password. I just leave it blank. How do I get past this and get OS X installed?" How should you respond?

A. Enter 'apple' for the password during installation. You will be prompted to change your password when installation is complete."
B. "You can create a Standard user account on the machine, set a password, and install OS X while logged in with that user account"
C. The OS X Installer will not accept a blank administrator password. You will need to change the password for that administrator account in the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences before you try to install OS X."
D. "You may use your Apple ID password instead of the administrator password when prompted."
