Hi All, need some advice please.
I have run two ID's on Mac OS since 2008. One is an Admin. One is "standard". Obviously 99% of my usage is with the standard ID and that is attached to my "normal" iCloud ID. MacOS is now whining that the Admin account does not have an iCloud ID. Do I 1) ignore this or 2) create another separate iCloud account that will have little or no use or 3) assign my regular iCloud ID to the admin account? Any caveats?

Thank you.
 
I ignore it.

Heck, I don't even see it as almost never sign in to my admin account directly. Really don't have a need for signing in there. Most everything I need to do can be done firing up a shell for my admin account, or sudo. And of course installers will prompt for admin id.
