First I would like to apologize for being so slow in thanking all of you who replied to my question about changing by password. I have been pretty busy. Let me review. I have a G4 and when I recently reinstalled all of my system software, I didn¹t select a passwordI am the only person who uses the machine. When I went to install my HP Scanjet 3970, I was told that I had to enter my password. I can¹t remember where I found it but indeed I had been ³assigned² a password, because I sure didn¹t select one. Following the directions that several of you gave me, I went through the change process, only to find that I how have another, unnamed ³user² and I still can¹t install my software (because I haven¹t got permission). Like another list member (who I don¹t think has yet received a reply) I would like to remove the second user and I would like to know what I did wrong with the first password change. I really appreciate your suggestions, Sue -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
