Create a user admin for backup

Hi all

I have a Macbook and I was wondering if I could create a user to admin level which would have all programs on my Mac so that if I were to have to delete my user and all connected to the user, I would have this user "admin" who will have all the programs in my mac and be able to recreate my user.

I know I'm probably going to lose my documents and other things like that, but for those who I have a backup on my HARD drive.

With respect to the time Machine, I started to make backups a little late, and I'm looking for is more than a user who has access to all programs without having to remember which version of my time machine this program was in.

Thank you and best regards

I think you just want to add a new user in the preferences system/users and groups , with perhaps an administrator name and define the type of Standard to administrator. This extra admin account has the same access to your applications as any other user.

This way you have another administrator account in the case where your are messed up somehow and you need an admin account.

    I suggest that you create another user account.  This can be very useful in case you forget or lose the administrative password.

    Let me soce entry details:

    1. all computers need to have at least one administrator account. It will not work without it.
    It does NOT, however, create a profile For YOU defaultAdmin. It belongs to the user or the owner to create and decide who is Admin, and who is a regular user.
    2. even an admin account will not get to install and change the settings automatically. UAC (user account control) always appears to ask for confirmation of the task by clicking on continue, or by typing the admin password.
    3 be the main user is not to be an administrator. It is up to the user/owner of the computer to be configured as such.
    That said, now my question... How do you know that you're not an admin?

  • Identification information of the user of Linux for backup

    Does anyone have suggestions/advice on the creation of the user for backups on Linux using AppAssure machine?

    Unfortunately the previously "verified the answer" has only half of the answer: it shows how to add a user, but the customer AppAssure also has a group that the credentials of that user MUST BE a PART of otherwise when you try to change your username to talk with her on the servers AppAssure, for example if you change your admin or AppAssure username for any reason any It will reject constantly as a name of user and password error. To check if your new user name exists on the client Linux, log in there and make a sh/etc/passwd to see if it is already there in the list of users. If this isn't the case, add with the command 'NouveauNomUtilisateur' useradd as Anton K said. Then set the password for this user by typing passwd "newuserrname" and it by tapping twice and he will confirm that the token has changed (in CentOS anyway). Trying to connect from the AppAssure server will still get error log until what you add to the Group appassure however. Note: when you first install AppAssure it prompts you for the user accounts that you want to run it. This is how you can change that any time thereafter (to save removing and then reinstalling the AppAssure client s/w and a production server restart). Use a text editor vim and vim/etc/Group and look to the bottom of the list for the group 'appassure. If your new user name is not on this line you will need to set the mode insertion (I) and add the NouveauNomUtilisateur (no space) followed by comma and make the Esc and: wq to write the changes and exit stage. However, it still won't let you connect from AppAssure Server UNTIL you stop and restart the service of AppAssure. This typing stop appassure-service agent and then start appassure-agent. Note: You can also access this service any time, that you aren't sure typing appassure-agent service state. After the new user name is added AND the new user name is added to the Group appassure AND appassure-agent service is restarted, you will find that you can now connect the AppAssure server on the client using the new user name. :)

    Hello

    References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

    You can try to fix it with Safe Mode - repeatedly press F8 as you bootup. The ADMIN account in trunk
    Mode has no default password (unless someone has changed the password so it should be available).

    Some programs such as the updated Google (if you added the toolbar Google, Chrome or Google Earth)
    has been known to cause this problem.

  • No Option of account Type change under user ID-want to change of Admin for the Standard user

    Hi, we have a Vista Home Premium system.  One of the children has received this PC and they are as an administrator with no other users.  Later, I added myself as admin and wanted to change the children as a standard user account type, but there is no option to change account type under their username.  I don't want to change the names where I am the initial administrator and the new standard user are children because they already have a bunch of stuff under their original admin username.  ((1) why I do not see the option to change account type and 2) how to change their standard account type so I can use controls parents?  Thank you!

    I want to tell you that if the computer has 1 account only, it will be the default Administrator account and change the standard account type will be gray.
