[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1615689"] Yeah, Harry, that's the best way, but in the original post he indicated he had no backups. So at this point we're looking for a way to salvage what he's got. My thinking is that IF he can control Finder for a few minutes, we can move his important files to Shared and then move from there to an account that works properly. Once everything is safe and moved, he can then simply delete the offending account and live with the new one. I had to do that once and it worked well for me. [/QUOTE]
