Best Answer

If you have set up more than one user in OSX, there is a little icon in the upper right corner of the screen which is a black silhouette. Click it and you will see the user list. Drag to the one you want to use. If he has a password, you will have to enter it.

Remember, the first user is still logged in, so you have to log him out before shutting down.
