Title: Owner's name of the computer
Post by: Pascalin on August 10, 2003, 09:58:17 PM

I pass my old computer to my nephew, but I don't want him to administer the computer.

  is any way to change the name of the owner?

I'm using OS X 10.2.6

Pascalin- if it's the User Name you want to change (which i think it is), then go to this link below and read the last reply.  This will give you very clear instructions how to do it.

Why not just make him a new User?

Don't tell him your Admin Password.

I already have him as a new user.

I may just leave it like that
