Normally to arrange a Genius Bar appointment you will need to go to Contact Support and follow the steps to troubleshoot your issue, here you can make an appointment at a local store if one is open near you.


You shouldn't need an appointment for this issue, you should be able to reset your Mac so you can give it away following the steps below, also well done for sharing Apple Products with someone else, giving away a product is a very kind gesture - Have a great day!
