Hi. I am trying to help someone set up multiple user accounts with specific preferences. Currently, I know little about how he is setting up his accounts (through a server, on different computers, etc.), but I can ask him. My approach is to help him create an Automator app, AppleScript, or another script that he can run. My questions are, is there an easier way? Or is this even easily possible? Please post any questions I should ask him about the way he is setting up the users.
The following are a few of the settings he wants to change on each user's account:
1. Finder Preferences: warn before changing an extension [off/unchecked]
2. Customize Finder Window Toolbar: add Path button, remove Action button
3. System Preferences: trackpad secondary click [on]
4. System Preferences: bottom right hot corner [start screen saver]
5. Create an alias of a specific folder in the Home folder
6. Remove Launchpad and other apps from dock
Thanks for all the help!
