[QUOTE="leedeaville, post: 1457705, member: 277229"] Hi all, I'm moving from the UK to the continent, and will be having my iMac meet me there. I'll probably Fedex it. I wanted to secure it so that a password was required upon startup, but my mac is being chuffing infuriating. I tried to follow the advice on this link - [url=http://www.intego.com/mac-security-blog/mac-security-tip-disable-automatic-login/]Mac Security Tip: Disable Automatic Login - The Mac Security Blog[/url] , but System Prefs has greyed out all of my Login Options. I held 'c' on startup with the OS X Install DVd and set a password to my account, but when I restart my machine I'm never asked for the password? Help please! [/QUOTE]
