Once you've sent all relevant files to the trash. Mail Downloads (all your attachments from mail).Keychains (all your passwords that are encrypted into your keychain).Application Support (this will remove all settings and data from any application you used).Then inside your Library Folder you could send everything inside the following folders to the trash: It wouldn't hurt to download OnyX and do a little housekeeping next.I would remove all files from the the obvious: dmg, Option+ Empty that Trash, and Restart. Last off, Leon, just go to Spotlight, search Deleted Users, go to it and trash his user's. Read the instructions before you try changeshortname. You will need his shortname (the computer name with *no spaces at all) and his original password, likely. Download that to your desktop (for ease of use) and gather your note with his old acct name and old password. Now, open a browser and search for a freeware download called changeshortname. and place it in a Deleted Users folder (which we'll clean last.) When asked, (since this is your first time) select Archive or "Not to Delete Immediately" when the OS asks you how you want to delete his old account.An archive will build and save all his docs, settings, etc. When the Login window appears, log in as the new user you just created, go back to System Preferences |Accounts and highlight the old user account and click on the minus sign. Now, close System Preferences and Logout. When you are finished and save it, click on Login Options and make sure there is no check in 'Automatically log in as." Also, select List of users under 'Display login window as'. Now click the + sign to create your new account with your desired username and give yourself Administrative rights (the checkbox.) Here's what to do: Apple |System Preferences |Accounts. You have a couple of tasks ahead to make this happen, ok? I suggest creating a parallel new account, just for you, and archiving his entire user (temporarily.) Do you remember the original name of his account as well as that password? You'll need it, so jot it down.What I would do, Leon, is set your current account back to his old name and password first. I used to run into this kind of thing all the time when I worked for the government: truth is, nobody wants somebody else's name on *their machine, even if it is a buddy, right?
