Q: My guest account is enabled, but does not show up in the login window. I'd like it to, thanks!
I've tried disabling then enabling it, but it does not appear.

well "Hide500Users = 1;" would cause guest to not show on the login window. guest user ID is bellow 500.
try this command
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow Hide500Users -bool FALSE
after setting it you can use :
defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow
to verify that Hide500Users now displays as "Hide500Users = 0"
