Creating Users

Creating local users in the Accounts pane requires you to enter the user name and
password and make a few basic choices about that user.

To create a local user account:

1

Click the Add ( + ) button.

2

Choose the type of account to create from the New Account pop-up menu in the
dialog that appears.

 Administrator: An administrator can create and delete accounts, install software,

change system settings, and change the settings of other users.

 Standard: A regular user account. A standard user can only install software for the

user account, can’t make changes to locked System Preferences, and can’t create
accounts.

 Managed with Parental Controls: An account with limited privileges that are managed

by Parental Controls.

 Sharing Only: Can only access files in a specified location. Cannot change files on the

computer or log in at the login window.

 Group: An account that consists of selected users. See “

In most cases you will create Standard accounts.
