Delta Mac>>> Just Double checked, I do have, "Allow Guests to sign in>>>YADA YADA YADA." Did not show, Guest user, booting up an hour or so ago, and soon off to Band practice. Thanks for y'all help.

I HAD FV enabled, but NEVER EVER AGAIN>>LOL. Read my thread about FV, what a POS, and I apologize to those that like it OR NEED IT (I am not shouting, I use CAPS for emphasis :-) )).:>>>https://macosx.com/threads/mac-mini-firevault.324053/ To make a long story longer>>LOL>>I had enabled FV...

I was going to take a screen shot of the Users page, but it of course has my REAL name, so no can do. I do have the box UNCHECKED though for Guest Users to "Connect to Shared Folders"???!!! Well off to bed now. Not going to let this DRIVE ME NUTS, since that is a real short trip...

Even just did a RESTART, same thing.

P.S. Even though that setting is as you said, and I am about to sign off, going to bed, I did a quick log off, and when the sign on page came back, JUST ME???

I checked and I do :-), Thanks

Well after enabling it earlier today, I did LOGOUT of mine, but still did not see the guest one. Must be me :-) Will try again later this evening before going to bed. Going off the MAC till then. If I don't see it then, maybe tomorrow morning after SHUTTING DOWN tonight, then rebooting in the...

Yes, but it is not highlighted as my ADMINISTRATOR is.

Before my Wife & I left for lunch, Chinese, MY FAVORITE :-), I had checked, enabling Guest User, in the USERS setting, but coming back, and bringing the machine out of sleep, all I saw was for Me to Login, no guest user. Does that only appear after a full shut down, then the next reboot??? TIA...

And it BETTER REMAIN an option>>LOL. Making it mandatory would be a MAC deal breaker for MOI :-)

I had a similar problem getting into my Credit Unions site last week (Was fine on my Chromebook, so was not them, but only hitting ENTER when typing in my user ID. I'd get the 'https" crossed off in red and saying, "NOT SECURE. Worked with the credit union's Website person for maybe an hour...

Read my Opinion HERE>>https://macosx.com/threads/mac-mini-firevault.324053/#post-1534148 Then decide on your own :-)

Try this>>Install, "CCleaner," I have always really liked that cleaner, and run it. Save any cookies first that you do not want to lose under, "Options." Part of its' cleaning process is it empties out your Trash bin>>>Good Luck!!!

Addendum>>>Came out here after showering, getting dressed, bringing it out of screensaver, it initially said 20 HOURS TO GO now 4>>LOL>>, imagine!!!! Was it designed by a Yo Yo manufacturer. Now don't y'all get mad at me, not trying to be a SmartButt, but this is ridiculous. I had asked the...

"BTW - you don't need to turn off File Vault (or de-crypt) your boot volume to reinstall macOS. You just enter your unlocking password when you choose an encrypted volume as the install destination." Not what the Support (2nd Level Tech and I ran onto). When he had me go to "MacOs Utilitiy,"...

Yes there appears to be some issue with Sierra. I bought this Mac Mini Jan 1st, and it came with El Capitan 10.11.6, and I am using an Acer (Non Apple) Monitor and it worked fine. Then I was offered the Sierra 10.12.2 update. It took FOREVER. I let it run all night, then that day one when not...

I have to add, unless there is definite need, like your computer is used for law enforcement, the FBI, NSA, or something important as those natures, I would NEVER EVER enable FileVault. I began DECRYPT this morning around 7AM, and at that time it said about 6 hrs. which I knew was BS from my...

P.S. Before going to bed last night, I made sure in my Settings, that A) I had my monitor go off in 15 mins, B) OPT'g for this machine NOT to go to sleep when the Monitor does off, and 3) telling it to, "Not put the drives to sleep whenever possible." Yet I am confused, waking up & checking, the...

Yes this Filevault may be a very useful tool, but like the Tech told me, if you have some very sensitive stuff that ought to be encrypted, like if yours is a Government or a business with some important stuff. Otherwise if you are an ordinary SCHMOE like me>>LOL>>IMO I would not do it, because...

Yes, I think you are correct. I had been working with one of the Apple 2nd Level Tech support guys this morning & yesterday on a problem, and I asked him this question and he said that it would continue in sleep, even when SHUT DOWN, which I tended to doubt, but he is the expert :-) After this...
