In the process of setting up my new computer I initially created what I intended as a temporary ID until I could install the High Sierra beta and migrate my account data and settings from Time Machine. (To avoid potential conflicts and insure a clean system, I chose not to migrate applications etc.) Other than the unexpected conversion to APFS all went as planned. Once that was completed I logged onto the new copy of the old account and verified all was well then, as I had planned originally I went back and attempted to delete the original temporary account. To my surprise the temporary account could not be deleted. I have not run into this before and wondered...
  1. Is this Apple's response to the issue V1 talks about in this thread?
  2. Is this a new "feature" in High Sierra?
  3. Am I missing something?
  4. Is there a work around?
  5. Am I stuck with what I thought was going to be a temporary account? (If so I definitely need to strengthen the password and turn off synching with my iCloud account )
  6. Some of the above?
  7. All of the above?
  8. None of the above?
confused


If we knew what it was we were doing, it wouldn't be called research, would it?
