[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1610649, member: 234411"] Well, I'm getting the feeling that you are logged into an account that has parental controls active - don't know - can you post a pic like the one I provided previously? That is go to your Users & Groups and then do a 'screen capture' (Shift-CMD-4) - this will be saved to your Desktop (in Finder) - then attach to your next post - we'll better appreciate your user setup? But basically, you should have a user account @ the Admin level that has NO parental controls and a strong password that your grandkids cannot guess, thus you will have control of your computer. Then setup a 'Guest Account' w/ it's own password (which can be simple for your grandkids to enter) but activate parental controls there and decide (after learning about the options - check out this Apple Support Article [URL="http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14414"]HERE[/URL]) how strict you want to limit their use of your computer & browser. Not sure that I can offer much more - you probably need to learn a little more about the computer & the software features - good luck. Dave :) [/QUOTE]
