Change the permissions of the account of the child

I am setting up a new computer for my brother.  He doesn't really understand the concept of computing, but it "doing things" with him, and it is important for him. I need to reduce the risk of "damage", he can do on a computer, in a covert way. My idea is, if it doesn't, it won't click on it. It has a standard account and I have an account admin. parental control tell the person they are currently limited. I would like to remove all potentially harmful (to the PC) its Start Menu Programs, etc., without affecting my account. Some programs allow you to "remove from list" or "detach", others do not. If 'Delete' something from the Start Menu, they get removed from mine.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hello

For fixing the issue, I would like to know:

Uninstall you the program or just the shortcut to the standard user account deletion?

Please see the following articles to give permissions for the account of the child.

  • IMac locked out after changing the sharing and HD permissions

    Made a big mistake with my iMac internal sharing and permissions of HD.   I was experimenting with sharing and permissions of the HD info panel section in the administrator account.    In this article, I've changed the 'everyone' naming 'no access', but in doing so, it froze the machine.  Nothing did not.  I tried to restart, but after that the Apple logo and progress bar appears briefly, the screen went white.

    I tried to make a backup using Time Machine, but when the time came to clear the HD and replace it with the backup TM, I got an error message saying that the system could not erase the HD.  I tried to go into Safe Mode, but he continues to send me the recovery mode.

    I have a boot disc separate I made in Carbon Copy Cloner who is somewhere else right now but I can get, and maybe I can boot from that and do a total deletion of the internal HD and start again.  But I can do in the meantime?  It seems that a configuration option has locked me completely out of the HD to the iMac.

    Thank you

    To keep track, I tried something different. I used the option to reinstall OS X when the pane of the utility is on the rise.  My iMac then crossed the download process and reinstall OS X.  After 40 minutes, when he was all done, my machine is back with the connection, settings, and data in place.  I didn't even do a time Machine reinstall data.  Problem fixed.

    Moral of the story is, don't play with fixed and permission of a lot!

  • Why even after having changed the permissions can't write to my files?

    I moved files on "users / shared" on the imac 27 "my father Yosemite retina.  He got last June but was not able to migrate because of her old imac was in Florida and North Carolina.  So, I migrated the old imac again with time machine backup charges a few months after getting the computer.  Now, I'm trying to merge the 'old' on the new computer account with the migrated account 'new', I restored it with time machine from the old imac.  I thought I was smart "passage" large libraries of film and photo of users / shared and that the account migrated from old imac. (on the same computer again) But I have no write permissions for files on the migrated account.  And making matters worse, while I can't write to files, I'm still able to corrupt them trying to change permissions and try to load them with i-movie and what not.  So now, I have a 6 GB corrupted movie library and not backup.  I tried it duplication and corrupt also.

    So my question would be "why is it when I add to the new migration full privileges to user for these files, I always failed to write about them?  Now instead, I wonder if there is a way I can fix the corrupted film library file.  Film - I tried and failed on the double.    I tried available i-movie file to 'all' as well as the addition of the new migrated user full privileges to it.  While I was able to do it without error (it seems to take the changes) or the new migrated user or former user on the new computer can write to the file (i-film library) at this stage.

    Every article help I read says just to click on info and change the privileges for what I did.  So I'm pulling my hair out.

    Hope that I was not too confusing in the way that I want to talk about the two different accounts.

    Reset user - file property See post by Linc Davis

    You may need to restore the permissions on your user account. To do this, start on your recovery partition (hold down the command and R during startup) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In the Terminal, type: 'resetpassword' (without the), press return, and then select the admin user. You do not have to reset your password. Click the icon of your Mac hard drive at the top. In the list box below, select the user account that has problems. At the bottom of the window, you will see a box labeled restore Home Directory permissions and ACLs. Click the button to reset there. The process takes a few minutes. When you're finished, restart.

  • Change sharing permissions, now I can't access the local disk

    Hello all, I have two computers, both running windows 7 (one is 64-bit and the other is 32-bit) connected via LAN and WiFi. One of them has all of the local disk shared with full compensation for everyone (full control). I decided to remove these permissions and control to "deny". Then I had to cancel the task and decided to resume later. HURT, now I've lost access to this drive, even though I can access some files. When I try to enter in the drive, an error message appears saying "C: is not accessible. Access is denied. I did some research and it seems to be a common problem, but I followed all the steps did not work. It shows as 0 bytes and security options does not show anything, but "you don't have permission to view or change the permissions of the object settings. I tried to adapt, even in safe mode and as administrator, do not to prevail. It keeps saying 'access denied' I also tried to set a hidden administrator account, but the account manager is 'not available for my system' when I made these unfortunate changes, it was not this computer but on the other, I think it might be the reason. Now, I can not access my local disk or change anything. Please, help me, I can't find a solution to this mess!

  • I can't delete a folder because I do not have the permission, but I am the administrator. It doesn't let me change the permissions. Help?

    First of all, sorry if this is in the wrong place. I had no idea what section to post this in.
    Today, I was using a program for the 'Minecraft' game called MultiMC and removing files that it created I don't have anymore, I came across a folder, I could not open, delete, or do something with. When I try to open it it says ' (place) is not accessible. Access is denied. " When I try to remove it, he said ' you must be authorized to perform this action. You need computer administrator permissions to change this folder ' (though, I'm the administrator - only account on the computer). It also gives me 'Retry' and the options to cancel, nor necessary. On properties it says "Unable to display current owner" and won't let me change the owner, even to the administrator. The file is 0 bytes in size, but I want to get rid of because I might want to remove the folder that it is in the future, besides I don't know if it's a virus or whatever it is. Please can someone help.

  • Cannot change the settings on the computer. No access to the administrator account

    Original title: I can't access permissions to change settings or programs.

    I can not access permissions to change any settings or programs and do not have access to an administrator account, I tried what allows one but you must have admin permission to do so. Please point me in the right direction, it seems that Ive tried everything. ID realyy don't want to spend money on software

    Hi Christophe,

    -With which user account you have connected? It is a standard user account?

    -What happens when you try to change the settings? You receive an error? In the affirmative, please let us know the exact error message.

    Since you are not able to create an administrator account, I suggest you to enable the built-in Administrator account.

    1. you must start the computer by using the Windows 7 installation media.

    Follow the steps in http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/what-are-system-recovery-options#what-are-system-recovery-options=windows-7 to enter the recovery options in Windows 7.

    Note: See the manual of the computer to change the Boot order in the BIOS and set the CD/DVD as first boot device.

    2. Once you start the computer by using the Windows 7 installation disc, follow the instructions on the screen then go food Advanced Options and select command prompt.

    In the command prompt, type net user administrator / Active: Yes

    After the command finishes, restart the computer and then log on to the administrator account by default, change the account type of the old user account and make as administrator and check if you are able to change the settings.

    Follow the steps in the http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows7/change-a-users-account-type to change the account type of the user account.

    Once you have set the administrator type account with your user account, disable the default user account by following these steps.

    1. login to your user account.

    2. open the command prompt, type cmd. exe in the run search and right click on cmd.exe and select Run as Administrator.

    3. type net user administrator / active: No.

    This will disable the built-in Administrator account.

    Hope this information is useful.

    Hi all

    If encryption is not involved (if you do not encrypt the files originally) and is just a file permissions problem - simply take possession of the files first and then change the permissions when your account has full permissions on the files/folders that you need.

    If you do not backup your encryption certificate and key encryption is involved, then the data are almost lost to you.

  • How to change the authorization information. If I have 2 accounts with Adobe?

    First of all Hello to all,

    The issue is that my BPP books were initially allowed with my first adobe account; BUT now when I open my software adobe digital editions the authorization info. is to stay to my 2nd account and so I'm not able to use my URL for editions of BPP.

    Please inform me how to change permissions information. instead of me - in order, that the software adobe digital editions will be allowed for my first account otherwise, I can't use my books.

    I have studied carefully the prog. but I have found no possibilities of properties where I could change these settings - no simple rule to change the authorization Info?

    The process of uninstalling and reinstalling after has not helped either.

    Kindly help to find a magical solution for such a banal situation Adobe is not expected.

    YELLOW FEVER,

    Andrey

    You can remove the account by using Ctrl-Shift-D (Cmd-Shift-D on Mac).  However please note that exercise strictly removes the computer account information and does nothing else.  Very precisely, it does not increase your allocation of activation.  Repeated authorisation/exercise, will lead to disrespect of your activations of alllowed, and you will need to submit a web request (http://www.adobe.com/support/digitaleditions click on 'Submit a web case')

    If you want to use the two AdobeIDs then you're better, creating a new operating system user account and then authorizing ADE on this account with your other AdobeID.

  • How to change the default e-mail account

    I have 4 email accounts configured in Mail.app. When you compose a new message, it will be by default the account for the selected mailbox, which is great. However, when no particular mailbox is selected (when you view the Inbox combined for example), it is the default account. I want the default to another account.  How can I tell Mail.app account to use?

    Changing the order of the mailbox makes no difference. There is a preference that would allow me to have all new messages come from a certain account, but I don't want that. I want to its default value of the box running mailbox if it exists. I want to just change the value by default when there is no current mailbox selected.

    It is has got to be a way to do that, right?

    Mail > Preferences > accounts (select your main account) > account number > AccountType IMAP 'email address '.

    In your list of aliases move to the top of the list, your primary e-mail address.
