Primary Account

This is the account you use to log into district computers, your email, and the helpdesk.

You can change your account password from your Macintosh computer.
This is the preferred method, but you can also change your password via the Password Management tool.

This process should only be completed while in district and connected to the wireless network

Open “System Preferences” either from the icon in your dock or by going to the Apple logo in the upper lefthand corner and then selecting “System Preferences

Then Select “Users & Groups

Inside the Users & Groups pane, select your user on the lefthand side then on the right select “Change Password…

Enter your old password then enter a new password on the following two lines.

After you have changed your password. If you have your account logged into any clients (e.g. an email client) please make sure to update the settings in those clients as they will attempt to log in and fail repeatedly causing you to be locked out of your account.


If you have issues that are not covered by the documentation please visit the Helpdesk.
