http://mactips.info Ever needed to let a visitor use your Mac for a few hours? Were you concerned they might accidentally trash your files or mess things up? Set them up as a Guest User. They have separate access and all their stuff is deleted when they log off. Set up a Guest User Account, Mac Tip #428, 17 March 2010. http://mactips.info/2010/03/use-a-guest-account

  • how to do reset ur pass word of u forgot and u cant acces anything

  • @Darkdude38 Guest accounts don't use a password. Once you log out of a Guest Account everything is deleted.

  • how are you filming your screen!????

  • @mtalent13 I use the most excellent ScreenFlow application.

  • when you log out of the guest account it says that the files will be deleted when u log out...is there anyway to log out without deleting the files?

  • @ayoskadoosh No, that's how the Guest account works. To avoid losing the files copy them to another location, such as an external drive or backup service.
