[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1939906, member: 204485"] We have another user currently posting who has the same issue. He was given an iMac, the previous created an Admin user account for him but when it came to erasing and reinstalling an operating system he found he did not have "permission". This is because the device was still "Authorised" to the previous owner's ID with Apple. All I can say is if you follow the instructions that Ian attached in his post above you wont run into any "Catch 22" situations down the line. [/QUOTE]
