Update: Another oddity was that the “automatic login” feature under Users & Groups was grayed out, so I couldn’t choose it. By Googling “automatic login,” I discovered that automatic login is disabled if FileVault is active on an account. I had forgotten that I’d turned it on a couple of months ago. I turned off FileVault and now see both users when I start up and am able to set automatic login and am able to boot into the account of the user that was not letting me do so before. Problem (temporarily?) solved.
Not sure is FileVault was the culprit, but that’s my current working hypothesis. Am still going to run Disk Warrior when it comes. > On Mar 28, 2016, at 5:02 PM, Dan Crutcher <[email protected]> wrote: > > Beth, > > Mine’s an early 2013 Retina.
