what is my computer's user name?
Every once in a while my computer wants me to input my user name and password (for example, to run ActiveX (?)). How do I find my user name? Stupid question,but I can't figure it out.
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
Your username is the short name you assigned to your admin account. If you open the /Users/ folder your username is the name you see under your Home folder. Generally, you can also enter the long name you assigned which is displayed in the Users and Groups preferences.
We have no way to know what your password is since you are the one who assigned it. It is not accessible. You can change it. See Reset User Password.
