Mac OS X
- Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Users & Groups.
- Click the lock icon
to unlock it, then enter an administrator name and password. - In Users & Groups preferences, click Login Options.
- Click the “Automatic login” pop-up menu, then choose a user, or choose Off.If you choose a user, then whenever the Mac starts up, that user is automatically logged in. If you choose Off, then at startup the Mac opens a login window showing all the users. Automatic login takes effect the next time you restart the Mac. For better security, don’t set your Mac to automatically log in an administrator. If FileVault is turned on, automatic login is disabled.
- An apple article is there : OS X Yosemite: Set up users on your Mac
- you can delete secondary & guest account by clicking on minus sign .
