I am brand new, and very untechnical, but oddly enough very high iQ, go figure.
I inherited what I believe is the first Mac Book from 2007/2008 and the owner died a year and a half ago, and so I don't have password for the admin or any discs, and when I tried to get a disk they try to sell me a whole new system. If I enjoy this thing once I can get it working because everything needs updated in order to even used wifi at all, or download anything because Adobe is from 2006, but I am going to buy an AIR unless the retina gets below 1900 which I don't see happening.
I would prefer to talk to someone on the phone, I would call or be called, and live in Houston, texas, but if had to would do internet.
It sounds like if I had a disc I would be able to do it, but since I don't it is harder.
The unit has OSX version 10.6 and other then that I don't know what is necessary. He had it hwere I can do everything, but cannot update anything, and I remember when he got it at that time only the apple Air Port built in would do wifi and it was almost $300 then, but now a $25 after market would do it in N300 speed, if I had it unlocked.
I appreciate any help you guys provide, and apologize for not having more of a challenge or cutting edge for you technical people. I had an iphone since the original and am excited about switching ever since right after I converted the XP update so I could use the internet hot spot on the Iphone 4s because of blue tooth 4 and the upgradeed speed potential, and then 3 days after it was released Bill Gates took asll xp updates off the US market, I decided that was enough on negative marketing for one life. They are like 2 % of the market on computers, and he does that to their phone working with my MIcrosoft using Lenova, and I just couldn't take anymore, so I am done in principle working on getting done in practice.
