i have a category that has adult images...is there a way to make it so it checks the age set in the forum profile (i use ibp integration) or ask for a password to view the category albums?
you can restrict access based on albums (not categories). For details, read the documentation (http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/manual.php). Password protection will be a feature in cpg1.4.x

How to give access to private album without giving administrator access ?
Thank you
Enable private albums in config and then set album specific permissions in album properties.
