I'm the only user of my Mac Pro 8-Core, but I also have one test account and one account for my friend who visits seldomly. Is there a way to hide these two other users when trying to login, so I don't need to select a user before typing my password?
Hidden User List You can just add the rare users to the Hidden Users list. This will hide those accounts and give you the option of Other to the login screen. You will need their shortname then just run this command in Terminal.app Code: sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow HiddenUsersList -array-add user1 user2 user3 To remove them from the hidden user list: Code: sudo defaults delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow HiddenUsersList This is the same process as 10.6 so you can follow this guide if you need more info: Mac Login Tricks
