[QUOTE="jp_tix, post: 20831"] That's obvious. But the copied users won't come up as new users in the System Preferences. I tried making a new user with the exact same name as the copied folder, now it uses that folder, but permissions are messed up and almost all the applications crash when I start them (Mail, Address Book, even Quicktime).
