Changed Account 'short name' and cannot now access iPhoto pictures
I have two accounts running on my iMac. The second one I opened because Word didn't run properly on the first. I gave the second one the short name 'test'. Recently I decided that I should change the short name from 'test' to something more appropriate. I then logged out and in again. When I logged back in the short name was back to 'test' but I have lost access to some applications (had to reconnect to the web) and especially my iPhoto pictures. Can someone help?
Thank you very much for the help. I muddled through using the instructions and have managed to find my iPhoto files and some other files too. My Entourage account is still not reenabled, so I will have to set up that account again.
Will it be OK to delete the 'new shortname' as I am now operating on the original 'shortname' and I have moved most of the files away from the profile?
A friend has been given an 21" imac by his son, the account on it is set-up in his son's name. He has asked me if he can change the account name from his son's name to his name? I have found a few post on how to do that but if he does that will he still have access to all the songs on iTunes?
