I'm in my second week of using Mac OS X, so please bear with me.
I bought an iBook from a friend a few weeks ago. It is running OS X Tiger 10.4.8. The profile name was named 'daveduncan'. I thought it would be a good idea to change it to 'Terry'. Not such a good idea apparently. I logged out and logged back in and everything I had set was gone. Nothing is a big deal except for the 4000 sports photos and 400 wedding photos I had loaded and keyword'd in iPhoto.
What can I do to get my old user data back? Mainly the data back into iPhoto.
Did I mention I tried renaming it back to 'daveduncan' from 'Terry', so I hope I didn't overwrite anything important.
Is there a 'system restore' or something similar I can use to change my settings to how they were at 9:00 this morning or so?
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks,
Terry
