Anyone could help me,
I am new to Apple of relativity.
I had bought a second hand, 2011 Apple Mac mini for my mom and I forgot to put in a keychain for the Mac mini, it's a bad thing for me to do?
I use Mac OS X Lion, and I think it has OS X Lion Recovery on it.
The computer held to ask the Keychain password. She was confused because I did not originally put in, and now I'm more confused.
I wanted to just give him a computer that was easy for her to use, so that she can stay in contact with his grandchildren and group of friends...
I didn't know what to do, no one to ask, so I made in my 'new' Apple Mac mini in the shop so that it can be fixed.
Here are the specs of the computer of Apple Mac mini that I bought for her:

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Fred
The Keychain password is normally the password of the user, unless someone has changed the password. The keychain is installed as part of the operating system. You can see the article below which covers what Apple recommends for the sale of a computer. If there are parts of what was not done, maybe that's the problem.

Reinstall Vista:
Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .
There is no Vista free download legal available.
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

Hello!
So, I recently bought a second hand with 10 installed windows laptop.
After a few days, he stopped working and got 00x0000c14 error at startup.
I fully formatted using a disc of windows 7, and now I cant get it up and working properly.
It starts well on the desktop, but I can't get the installed network driver and so unable to connect to the internet.
In the windows.old folder, there are several drivers of all kinds. I can't install of these places. I tried and it doesn't seem to change anything.
I tried to download the configuration files and transfer them via my phone, but it has the same result as the drivers already installed in the old file win.
How can I get this laptop operational? Any direction is greatly appreciated. I'm trying to treat this as an opportunity to learn and not look at it as a negative circumstance, but if I can't get this to work laptop I'm in a bit of trouble, since I live in a country quite poor and cannot afford another PC.
Thank you! :)

A friend of mine bought a computer with Windows 7 Ultimate laptop second hand on it and it has not been activated, and it is not a product key (even the old one is worn and unreadable). It was originally a XP system and it cannot be upgraded to Windows 8 because it is not compatible. Is it possible that he could buy a product key so that it is activated and genuine? I don't want him to enter in some affliction, and I feel partly responsible because I was the one who told him to do and was not with him to look over the first! I feel really bad, because it doesn't have a lot of money and I should have been there when it was sold. I have a Windows 7 professional full version box, but I really need for my own system. Are there any alternatives? Please give me some GOOD news because I feel really rotten over this. ) :
Thank you
BAT
The only alternative would be to buy a license Windows 7 Ultimate full version or a version complete edition cheaper such as Windows 7 Edition Home Premium and make a custom installation:
Full version-
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
Full version-
Apart from that, the only other option would be to contact the computer manufacturer for a Windows XP Recovery disk. Which I doubt they still provide.

A copy of second hand of windows is legal?
Hello
I would just check a number of things:
1 opportunity Windows 8
I am considering buying a laptop second hand on eBay, which comes with a copy preinstalled windows 8 (it's a factory installed 13 Yoga Lenovo).
Assuming that the windows as genuine watch, is the transferable license? That is the copy of windows transfers to me once I complete the purchase?
2. clean install / lack of media
Since the system is the second user, I would like to install the system. Assuming that there is no media (I don't remember not receive media with my wife 13 yoga that has been installed at the factory purchased from Lenovo direct) can I get media somewhere?
I do not have OEM 8.1 media that came with another system, could I use it, with the second user systems product key?
Thank you
TR.

If it comes pre-installed on the drive, unless it's a license to retail, its license only for material it comes preinstalled.
2. clean install / lack of media
Since the system is the second user, I would like to install the system. Assuming that there is no media (I don't remember not receive media with my wife 13 yoga that has been installed at the factory purchased from Lenovo direct) can I get media somewhere?
Computers laptops Lenovo include a function called the Lenovo OneKey Recovery button, which is used to boot into the recovery environment and to reinstall Windows.
If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.
To do this, follow these steps:
· Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)
· Click settings
· Click change PC settings
· Click general in the left column
· In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start
Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.
I do not have OEM 8.1 media that came with another system, could I use it, with the second user systems product key?
No, 1 license, 1 computer, you have would remove other computer until you can transfer and it is only if its an OEM System Builder License.
No, the key that can be used with 32-bit or 64-bit of Windows 8 is exclusively for use with the disc 1. You cannot use install both. 1 license, 1 installation, so choose wisely. If you want to install Windows 8 32-bit or 64-bit on another partition or another computer, you must purchase an additional license.
INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS.
a. one copy per computer. You can install one copy of the software on a single computer. This computer is "licensed computer.
b. a computer license. You can use the software on up to two processors of the computer under license at some point. Except as provided in these license terms, you cannot use the software on any other computer.
c. number of users. Except as provided in these license terms, only one user may use the software at a time.
d. other Versions. The software may include several versions, such as 32-bit and 64-bit. You may install and use only one version at a time.
Thank you

< re-titled and personal information under the direction of the host >
Do not post your phone number, users of public forums - I asked the host to remove it.
How is it locked? If it is locked to a carrier then contact the carrier that it is locked, only they can potentially unlock it.
If you mean than locking activation and it is locked on behalf of the previous owner via the settings > iCloud then contact that person, no one here (or Apple) can help.

can I use my iphone to second hand 5s without making the user off icloud because I don't have all the details and its driving me crazy because it is a stupid idea, so I don't see how you can lose a phone

Nothing. Unless the previous owner, clearing his account iCloud, he will remain in the lock of Activation for ever. It is totally unnecessary for you.
