hi there
i have been away for a week leaving my mac at home. now i am back for some
reason when i switched on it asks for a password and to cut a long storry short
now i have two users on the mac myself and a guest user. is there a way to get
rid of the guest user and just to restart with
do this.
1. launch system preferences.
2. go to users and groups
3. go to the final entry in the table. You may need to unlock your
preferences.
4. Uncheck guest account and close the window.
Hope that helps.

Hi all
Well back from tuning loads of pianos.
I need to do some invoices and I wonder which app on a mac would be
best to use.
of course I can use office on my machine now but would pages be a
good app to purchase for this.
I am slowly wanting to use my mac more for every day use.
thanks.

is the
spreadsheet app.
