Chapter 1

Getting Started

If you don’t intend to keep or use your other Mac, it’s best to deauthorize it from

playing music, videos, or audiobooks that you’ve purchased from the iTunes Music

Store. Deauthorizing a computer prevents any songs, videos, or audiobooks you’ve

purchased from being played by someone else and frees up another authorization for

use (you can use only five authorized computers at a time with an iTunes account). For

information on deauthorizing, in iTunes open Help > iTunes and Music Store Help.

If you don’t use Setup Assistant to transfer information when you first start up your

MacBook, you can do it later using Migration Assistant. Go to the Applications folder,

open Utilities, and double-click Migration Assistant.

Note:

If you used Setup Assistant to transfer information from your other Macintosh

and you want to use Migration Assistant to transfer information from it again, make

sure FileVault is turned off on the other Macintosh. To turn off FileVault, open the

Security pane of System Preferences and click Turn Off FileVault. Follow the onscreen

instructions.

Setup Assistant can also take you through the process of setting up your computer to

connect to the Internet. For home users, Internet access requires an account with an

Internet service provider (ISP). Fees may apply. If you already have an Internet account,

see Appendix C, “Connecting to the Internet,” on page 113 for information you’ll need

to enter.

Congratulations, you’re up and running!
