Can not delete Guest account. Can you help?

Hi!
I discovered a guest account on my machine which I do not remember creating. It is called "Guest account". I managed to disable it but I cannot delete it because the Minus sign is dimmed.
How do I get rid of this guest account?
Thanks

Hi Nardac,
Not exactly sure what you are trying to say: Yes, the guest account can be disabled and I just did that as mentioned already. As a result it is listed as "disabled" under my main administrator account.
As long as there is listed as an existing account I still believe that it does exist, sorry.
Perhaps a method to delete it does exist, anyone knowledgeable out there willing to share?
Thanks

  • Can NOT delete Mail Account Duplicate

    Hi
    I have an IMAP account in mail which i can not delete
    I have a server but this account is Not associated to it however it has the same alphabetical content as the servers website excepting the part before the servers name.
    Tried disconnecting the server & the network
    I can NOT select ENABLE THIS ACCOUNT either as it wont save it
    I select the account & delete mail recreates it
    If i delete the imap smtp server & then try to delete mail recreates 2 additional copies & fails to delete the current one
    This account is Not in i cal
    This is driving me crazy
    Crazymail on 10.6.1 OSX Snow on a MacbookPro

    It doesn't work here as well. Try the "-" to delete account, it keeps coming back.
    I also tried go into my mail folder in user\library\...IMAP-... and deleted that folder, it keeps coming back.
    Besides,
    1. my IMAP server is no longer available. (where my can-not-be-deleted IMAP is associated
    2. I have just upgraded to OS X 10.6.2
    Anyone has a solution? Please help... the non delectable IMAP is very annoying.

  • Can not delete icloud account

    My icloud account is set up to my old email address, I have no way of accessing this email account. When I try to delete the icloud account on my phone it asks for a password, but password does not work and when I answer the security questions it says my birthday is invalid. I think this might be because it is an old apple id that probably no longer exists. It wont let me delete the account, turn off find my iphone or change it. Does anyone know what I can do to delete this icloud account and set it up wtih my new apple id?

    I finally managed to get my iPhone 'unClouded' by disabling the individual options whist the phone was tethered to my MacBook.
    In iTunes itself I then re-enabled the 'old-style' of syncing my address book & contacts to the iPhone, opting to replace the ocntent of the iPhone. (I was 100% sure my MacBook address was OK, and was my iCal in the Mac)
    So in short here were the steps:
    1. On MacBook, disable all iCould except the 'Find my Mac'
    2. Tether iPhone to Mac.
    3. On iPhone disable all iCloud (except find my iPhone)
    4. In Itunes select the old-style options of what you like to sync with phone
    This appeared to work for me.
    Also as a plus, my battery life on the phone appears to be back at pre-IOS5. (Still at 100% after 2 hours, not back to the lower 90-ties)

  • Typo in Apple ID with iCloud. I can not delete icloud account as I can not sign in to sign out.

    I have one wrong letter in apple ID associated with iCloud. I tried all the solutions available but nothing worked for me. My iCloud is not verified because i dont have the password for non existing apple id.
    1) I changed the country in 'Manage my account' on the apple website
    2) I tried resetting all settings
    3) but the apple id in iCloud ask for its password.
    4) I tried to delete the iCloud account. If I scroll down, I get sign out button. I clicked it. Then I get option ' Delete from iPhone', I clicked it. Then I get a small pop up window saying 'Password Required' - with 'enter apple iD password for "[email protected]" (typo email address) to turn off Find My Iphone'
    5) The application forces me to sign in into the non existing apple id
    How can I activate/ verify my icloud account with correct apple id?
    Your help is appreciated....

  • I can not delete a film  ! Please Help Me !

    Dear all,
    I have a problem, I have a film on my desktop which is locked. I can open and see the film, but when I try to delete it, it is impossible. What can I do ?
    Thank you for your help

    Drag the file to the Trash. If you can't empty the Trash try holding down the "Option" key while you select Empty Trash.
    If that doesn't work hold down the Control key while you click on the file. A contextual menu will open (like a right-click) and select "Get Info." At the bottom of the window that open you should see "Ownership & Permissions" and below that "You can _____ In the drop down menu make sure it says you can "Read & Write" (you may need to enter your Admin. password to do the change). Then try putting it in the Trash/Deleting.

  • My first apple id is wrong because my email address was wrong!I can not delete my icloud account because my email address is wrong! Help me please

    My first apple id is wrong because my email address was wrong!I can not delete my icloud account because my email address is wrong! Help me please

    First go here - https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and login under the manage tab.  Check your information and be sure it is all correct.
    An AppleID is nothing more than an email address, so if you see another email address in the store, then someone has logged in with a different AppleID than yours.  Did you let someone else use your iPhone?

    You can go to icloud.com, open Mail, click on the gear shaped icon on the upper right and choose preferences, go to the Vacation tab and set up an auto response saying that the account is no longer in use.  Then go to Settings>iCloud and turn Mail to Off on your device and stop using the account.
    Incoming email to the account will receive your vacation auto response, and eventually the mailbox will fill up and no longer receive mail at all.

  • Someone hacked my computer and set up a new administrative account by re-registering my computer. I can not access this account nor delete it. How can I fix this and get my computer back to the way it was?

    Someone hacked my computer and set up a new administrative account by re-registering my computer. I can not access this account nor delete it. How can I fix this and get my computer back to the way it was? And also prevent this from being able to happen again. I have the link the kid used (http://www.ihackintosh.com/2009/05/how-to-hack-the-user-password-in-mac-os-x-wit hout-an-os-x-cd/) Apparently he used hack 2. HELP PLEASE!

    Not sure why you can't delete that account. If you have admin privileges, you should be able to. Sounds like you only removed the Home Folder for that account.
    You should highlight/select the account you want to remove and then click the minus button. Might need to unlock the padlock with your admin password.
    Have a look at these articles from Apple, if necessary.
