How do I open my computer where I do not need to use a password.?
and how do I extend the time my computer stays open before it gos away?
iMac 27″ 5K, macOS 12.2
Sounds like you want to turn on automatic login.
Go to System Preferences > Accounts > Login Options > Automatic Login
I hope this helps.
Further to above information.
This can Only be used if FileVault is Turned OFF and If there is Only ONE USER Account on this computer.
Both condition are required
EDITED
I am a Newbie as far a Apple is concerned. I need to know where I can find File vault? I am the only user of this computer and I am the only one named as a user.
When I go to Login and follow the directions I received I can not find a Auto Login area to check off or change to yes.???
The other problem I have is the computer will not stay up for more than a short time, 5 mins or so before going tø a blank screen ????
FileFault is located in System Preferences and Security & Privacy >> " FileVault "
