[QUOTE="bobolinx, post: 955441, member: 16386"] Hi All, Even though I've been using my iBook for 4 years now, I still feel like a newb to macs. The Os's and hardware changes so fast that I was behind even when my laptop was brand new! Anyhow, I am finally upgrading to a MB and am selling the ibook to a friend for her kids to use mainly on the internet. So... I understand that once the new mb arrives the info from the old ibook should be migrated via time machine? Anyhow, after that process. I need to reset the ibook for my friend. So... what exactly should occur? How do I, without buying any new programs, clean out all of my info., and reset the account to factory settings? Will the computer still be set with me as the administrator? Will I need to get all of the upgrades after installing, if I still have them, the factory disks? I want to hand over the computer in "ready to run" mode to her, anything I should do? Thanks [/QUOTE]
