touch ID

I want a new iMac, but the one I want has touch ID. I don't want to use touch ID. Can I use an Apple keyboard without touch ID on the iMacs that come with touch ID keyboards?

You can turn Touch ID off if you want so it will not prompt you. Below are the steps.


  1. From the Apple menu, select System Preferences.
  2. Search for Touch ID
  3. Click Touch ID.
  4. Deselect all of the checkboxes to disable Touch ID on your Mac.
