Ask HN: Help
I'm stranded with a MacBook Pro with a totaled screen a MacBook with an account where my iCloud is not enabled, no phone 'conveniently' left at flat by one of the I would say aggressors aka crazy ex-girlfriend. So entering the password for iCloud falters at 2 factor auth.
The MacBook also has a cracked screen and coincidentally? it seems to be getting worse as are the keys, many of which don't click well.
I need to get access to some of my contacts, how do I do it in this circumstance?
On the other hand access to my data might be what the crazy ex and gang wants so maybe it's better as is.
Thoughts? ps passwords are in 1password so to get to it I need to setup iCloud. The ex-girlfriend physically attacked me and tried to lock me down in the flat by stealing the key. I got the key at the cost of dropping my MacBook Pro, shattering the screen. The 11" MacBook is hers (she left it behind in a hurry) with an account I created for myself just in case from which I am writing now. I can't log in to her acc as it is an admin account. Sorry for the drama but HN is about the only social network I can login to now and get some support/advice. PS. Got an idea, while writing the comment, that could work. PPS. I am Russian and was born and live in Moscow, crazy ex is Russian too, so that might explain some things.
