Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I'm trying to create a new user on my Mac, but whenever I do, it doesn't appear on the list.
I know that a home folder was made because whenever I try to make a new user with the same name, the automatic home folder name given is "fullname1".
How do I fix this?
Try to create a new user (Other than what you have already used) and see if it shows up.
Try booting into Safe Mode, check if you have same issue.
How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support (May take longer than normal boot)
Note: Safe mode prevents your Mac from loading certain software as it starts up, including login items, system extensions not required by macOS, and fonts not installed by macOS. It also does a basic check of your startup disk, similar to using First Aid in Disk Utility. And it deletes some system caches, including font caches and the kernel cache, which are automatically created again as needed.

What is the macOS version? (About This Mac from the Apple menu in the upper-left corner of your screen.)
What type of account are you trying to create? (Administrator/Standard/Managed … )
I think the default input in "Account Name" will be same as the home folder name.

Are you able to login into new user?
I'm on Mojave and I'm trying to create an admin account. I can't login to the new user because I can't see it in the first place.
I made a new user in my Macbook but I can't seem to find it.
