Hi all, I’m working an a display for an exhibit, we want to display an interactive website on a monitor. The monitor will be hooked up to a Mac that has Yosemite, it’s an older Mac so it can’t be upgraded. We want to remove the ability to access other sites so that the viewer can only visit the site we want them to see. How can we lock the Mac down to one specific website? Thanks so much for any advice you have.

I'm sure its possible on a Mac, but ive never done it -- But I know you can do it with an ipad -- and the new iPads can display on a monitor --- but you are looking for mouse and keyboard support I assume ? iPad can do that as well.

One choice for you would be Parental Controls in OS X.

Make a new user account just for this purpose.
Turn on Parental Controls for that user account.
You can set up web access to limit the user to only one web site.
