[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1661198, member: 56379"] You don't have to do anything. Having the computer in your possession (as far as Apple is concerned) means that it's your computer (so are the owner). Apple really only tracks things via the computer's serial number. Yes…Apple probably knows who the original owner was when it was purchased brand new (if purchased at the Apple store). If you own the computer…it's yours. Just sign into iTunes or the Apple Store…enter your Apple ID…and then your Apple ID and the computer will be associated.:) - Nick p.s. With that being said…here's what the previous owner should have done before selling it: [url]https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201065[/url] [/QUOTE]
