Hello. I have two accounts on my mac. Both are administrators. But for some reason, only one (the least used one) is an option for login when the mac is first started up. Once I log into the one account then log off, they're both present. But why is only one of the accounts a login option when the computer is first started up?
Thanks.

Filevault enabled? If you did not specify the other account as being able to unlock the drive, will see this scenario.

Yes, that was the problem! Thank you. Now I can log onto the other account from startup.
