Hello, I am migrating from a 2008 iMac to a new 2017 iMac. I am not sure how but I seem to have finished up with the below configuration and cannot work out how to correct it.
I am set up as user Paul hopewell with a login password. For some reason user Paul hopewell is subordinate to user guest who does not have a login password. User Paul hopewell has folders download, music, movies, pictures and public but does not have folders documents and desktop. User guest has all folders including their own versions of downloads, music, pictures and so on which user Paul hopewell can see but is not authorised to read. User Paul hopewell cannot create folders Documents and desktop as these names are already in use. So as user Paul Hopewell I moved all the contents of folder documents on my old iMac to a new folder data under user Paul hopewell on my new iMac and I also moved all the contents of Music, pictures and so on from my old iMac into matching folders under user Paul Hopewell on my new iMac. This all works fine but I am concerned about not having folders documents and desktop or user Paul hopewell on my new iMac. Do you have any ideas on the easiest way to fix the above? Many thanks.
