I acquired this computer from an old boss. It's an iMac. shortly after acquiring it i updated to OSX. Last night i was trying to change the name of the computer (from my old boss' name) to my name, i think i ended up creating a new user, because when i turned on the computer this morning, everything had reverted back to the settings that were on the computer before i got to it. It's now running OS9 and all of our files are on a separate user, that for some reason i can't switch to.
i enabled fast switching, but the second user account i created doesn't come up. i SEE it when i'm in Finder, under users, it has my boss' account, our acct, and the shared folder, but i have no way of switching to it.
please tell me that there is a simple solution that i'm overlooking. i'm not a novice to macs, but i've never run into a problem like this.
Thank you
