Is there a file somewhere that controls the password?

Have a look in the keychain, see if Apimac saves it there - use
Keychain Access.app in /Applications/Utilities and look in the Login
keychain, category Passwords. If there are any relevant looking ones,
double-click them and tick the "show password" box.

I got the brain into gear and remembered the pass. I looked in keychain, found nothing.

Thanks
