Parental Controls Won't Save

Hey there, Matinicus Rock.

I see that you're trying to set up parental controls for managed users on your MacBook Air. Once you've gotten them set up to your liking, you test the controls, the changes aren't being saved. I'm happy to help.

Turn on parental controls for an existing user -- Make sure that you're working from the accounts are managed accounts.

Set up parental controls -- Then work through the instructions in this article.

Important: After you change parental controls settings for another user, wait at least one minute before switching to their account or restarting your Mac to verify that your changes have taken effect.

Reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac -- If the issue persists, reset the System Management Controller. Follow the steps under "How to reset the SMC on Mac notebooks" for a nonremovable battery. Test the issue once you're back to the desktop.

Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac -- If you're still facing this issue, restart your Mac in safe mode and set up a few restrictions and test. If there are no issues, reboot normally and test again in your own user account. Remember this when booting in safe mode: Limited graphics performance in OS X recovery or safe mode

Let me know how that goes.

Take care!
