[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1607319, member: 56379"] The subject of resetting the ownership/Apple ID associated with purchasing a used Apple computer has come up a couple/few times recently. Where the previous owner has not "deauthorized" (Apple ID) the computer before selling it...and now the new owner cannot do a lot of things like software updates/upgrades, access iTunes, access Mac App Store, etc. I came across this document (below) in the Apple Support Communities which explains how to do it: [url]https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5641[/url] HTH,:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
