Guys this is going to sound like a real stupid question but I am trying to find an easy answer.

I recently got my Mac Pro running Leopard, 4GB Ram and a 1TB of storage.
Set up all my files and folders under ADMINISTRATOR instead of creating a USER account....like how dumb is that?

I have now setup a User but need to MOVE\COPY all the files from ADMIN to the USER and delete them from the ADMIN account.

Any suggestions on the easiest way of doing this any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks Terry

I was always under the impression the first account had to be an administrator account. I don't think it can be deleted.
You could try backing up all your information and reformatting the HD.

You can turn an Admin account into a normal user account (and vice versa) by logging in from a third Admin account.
