    hi folks, just bought an iMac 24 2.8 and its awesome. just having a problem with the logging in. after I finish using it as the admin, I put it to sleep, then when it wakes up it only gives the option to login for my account and not the other users that have a standard account. how can I fix this? I also don't close all the tabs and open programs, is that causing the problem?

    If you want the login screen to appear after you wake the machine from sleep, you would have to log out of your account before putting the machine to sleep. Another possibility is to turn on 'fast user switching' (system preferences - accounts - login options) - then when you wake the computer from sleep there should be a button to switch users below where it asks for your password.
