Before You Begin
Be sure you are on the administrator profile of the computer. Installing on a secondary profile may cause future issues. To switch profiles, click the Apple icon in the upper-left corner of your screen and click “Sign Out.” Then, sign in as the administrator.
Also, ensure that Parental Controls are disabled for all profiles on the computer prior to install and remain off while Covenant Eyes is installed. You can see which profiles, if any, use Parental Controls by traveling to your System Preferences, choosing Users & Groups, and looking for any users in the left-side list that are labeled as “Managed.” Managed users have Parental Controls enabled and this must be unchecked.
