[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1922856, member: 83420"] Nothing to worry about in my view. Others may disagree of course. I've had this happen with all my iMacs over the last 15 years. It may be because another Mac is/was on the same server (not in your case you said), or you didn't disassociate a previous Mac you owned from your Apple ID or, often the commonest, it's a macOS bug related to DNS cache. If this was to become a recurring message, then there are ways, via Terminal, to rename your Mac. For the moment, I'd ignore it. Ian [/QUOTE]
