Apple Mac Adding a new user account to your computer
You can create individual user accounts for each person who uses your computer. Each new user has a separate home folder and can adjust his or her own preferences without affecting other users.
- Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Accounts.
- If some settings are dimmed, click the lock icon and type an administrator name and password.
- Click Add (+) and type the user's name.
- If you don't want to use the short name generated automatically, type a new short name. (Once the account is created, you won't be able to change the short name.)
- Type the user's password in the Password and Verify boxes.
- Type a hint to help the user remember the password if they have trouble remembering it at login.
- Click Parental Controls and select options to determine what the user can do with the computer.
If you change your mind while you're creating a new user account, click Delete (-) to cancel.
