[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1818531, member: 83420"] No; it won't accept it because the previous owner did not disassociate that Mac from his Apple ID. As the previous owner is your brother, all he has to do is sign into his Apple ID account on the web, go into his account and find the devices attached to him. Then uncheck that particular Mac as belonging to him. There is a well publicised method of making your Mac suitable for sale/gift to someone else and these steps have to be followed. This includes iTunes, Messages etc. See here: [url=https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201065]What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your Mac - Apple Support[/url] Ian [/QUOTE]
