[QUOTE="MacGuy01, post: 1946132, member: 411360"] I am selling an IMac 27" with the Retina display. the computer is 2017-ish and has the Ventura OS. resetting the hard drive was a major chore and it doesn't seem like Apple made it any easier for me but I got it done. I had to use the Command-R utility but it is done. Now I am up against another problem and I can't for the life of me figure out what to do. I have a feeling I am missing a step but I have no clue as to what it might be. My name is still showing as Administrator and also on the Startup screen and I need to remove it. I have tried everything I can think or and everything that the Internet suggests so far and no success. I have removed the computer from my ICloud account and everything else I can come up with. Can someone please suggest to me what I need to do to remove my name as Admin? I would even settle for changing the name to something like "Cust_Omer" or "Comp_User" or something similar. I just need to get my name out of the computer. Suggestions are most greatly appreciated. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
