stats: G4 iMac (goose neck one); 10.4.xx; I have an Administrator account I gave my old iMac to a teenage boy. I kept myself as Administrator and made his account Administrator, too. He just gave the computer to his sister. I need to delete his account, but he doesn't remember his password.
I have logged into the computer and tried to delete his account. However, the - sign is grayed out and it won't let me select it. Yesterday, I inserted the install CD that came with the iMac and tried to reset his password. I chose to leave the password box blank ---- actually no password --- thinking that would be easier. BUT when I logged in again, the - sign was still grayed out. AND apparently the new password didn't take because it kept hinting at the old password. Any suggestions on how to delete his account? His sister needs the room on the hard drive because he has added lots of stuff in his User account ----- which I can't delete because I don't have his password!
