[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1836925, member: 83420"] A warm welcome to Mac-Forums, Airscrew and thank you for your post So, as [B]Jake[/B] said in post #3 - if your friend did not follow the procedure outlined in his Link, and only deleted her home folder and personal documents etc, then that MacBook Air could still be linked to the seller's Apple ID and that could cause significant problems for your wife. Apple would still see the Air as belonging to another Apple ID with considerable limitations on how your wife could use the Mac. As, hopefully, the seller is known to you, she can help you sort this out. If I've got this wrong, I apologise. Otherwise, come back to us and we can guide you (and the seller) on how to remedy this. Ian PS Any apps left on the Mac, including Microsoft Office, belong to the seller. [/QUOTE]
