I purchased an iMac at an estate sale but the previous owner now deceased did not reset the computer. No relative knows his login or Apple ID. Did I just purchase a paperweight?

Hello dear users! BEWARE this post is long-ish.. I decided to step up my music production game and I am slowly planning on selling my good ol' Tower Mac Pro 2008. I recently bought an iMac 2015 that was on sale locally on Gumtree. Beautiful machine with 64GB Ram, i7 processor, 2tb fusion...

Hi All, I'm looking to buy an external SSD and make it bootable for my late 2015 iMac. I'm open to any suggestions, but I'm thinking of this as a single dedicated drive (I don't need multidrive units). It's a 5k display, with USB 3 and Thunderbolt 2 ports. I'm looking for the fastest option...

Hi i have always had issues with continuity between iPhone and the iMac (late 2015 retina) in terms of using the feature to make calls via my iPhone on the iMac. Everything else works; continuity for continuing where i left off from my iPhone on my mac, and vice versa, the universal copy and...

I have looked all over, but have not found any specific confirmation or refusal of this: can a non-Retina iMac 2015 (such as base or mid 21.5" or base 27") do Target Disk Mode? The "letter of the law": https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204592 suggests not due to the verbiage "...Late 2014 and...

According to Mac Performance Guide the new 2017 iMac's SSDs are slower than the 2015 models when writing small files. Does anyone know how this could be? It's only for smaller files, on the whole they are a lot faster. As i read this, I thought about two possible reasons: Apple has made...

Hi, I have a late 2015 iMac 27 with 1TB HDD. It is too slow for applications to open and regular Finder operations. I am planning to upgrade the storage to improve the speed. Here are my options. 1) Apple 256 GB Flash drive (PCIe SSD?) for $500 (labor included) - Result 1 = 1 TB fusion...

Hi – I have a 2015 iMac which I have replaced the thermal compound for, turning it back on I note that the hottest part of the system is the sensor 'Back light controller proximity temperature' which is at 47C at idle. I am afraid to push it. Does anyone have any idea where this sensor is...

Hi All. 1. How can I transfer files and so one, between two iMac's an old mid 2011 27" iMac where the GPU is dead, so blue screen and can't get into the desktop, to a new late 2015 27" iMac ?? 2. I know how to open the old mid 2011, but can see it's harder on a late 2015, my question is - is...

We have been using Mac’s since just before Apple converted to Intel processors, i.e. 2005. Wanting to replace our 2006 iMac, I looked at Apple’s lowest cost option 21.5" option. I then went on Craigslist and found a top-of-the-line 27" 2011 iMac for $550 (in excellent condition). Here is a...

After updating from El Capitan to Sierra, my iTunes becomes so sluggish to the point of annoying. Opening albums from Albums View is slow and choppy, rating one song makes the album cover 'flashed'. Also, album covers in Artists View are HUGE, artists pictures aren't available anymore...

Made my account to ask all of you this question. Right now I'm torn btw the 2TB fusion and the 256 SSD options. I really like the idea of the SSD as it'll be one drive high will subsequently have less of a chance of breaking. My uses of this computer will be light photo/video editing, google...
