[QUOTE="louishen, post: 1464360, member: 40142"] Have you got a time machine back-up of your current mac for when the new one arrives? Firstly you need to de-authorize your account from the iTunes Store menu Then Just create a new admin account for your friend and remember to give them your password When the new Mac comes you can restore your settings using your time machine backup. Once you are happy you can then delete your old User from the Imac and give it to your friends, he or she will have their new admin account instead of yours [/QUOTE]
