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 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. For

information about deauthorizing, choose iTunes Help from the Help menu in iTunes.

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

do it later using Migration Assistant. Go to the Applications folder, open Utilities, and

double-click Migration Assistant.

Step 7:

Customize your desktop and set your preferences.

You can easily make your desktop look the way you want using System Preferences.

Choose Apple (

) > System Preferences from the menu bar or click the System

Preferences icon in the Dock. System Preferences is your command center for most

settings on your Mac mini. For more information, open Mac Help and search for

“System Preferences” or for the specific preference you want to change.
