Hello..... I am running 2 different HD's (1 with OS 10.6.8 and the other Os 10.7.5). I am tired of always signing in my administrator password to the authintication field since it is only me using these drives.

Is there a way to quit having these Administrator password fields always coming up? Note: see attachment below....

Thanks!

Sure:

1. Go to Systems Preferences

2. Go to to Users & Groups

3. Go to Current User

4. Go to Change Password

4. When you have entered the old Password, when it asks for the new one, leave it blank.
