Mountain Lion all Screwy on used Mac
Got a used Mac last week and the previous owner had it wiped, but it looks like it was cleaned out too thoroughly.
Upon the first restart after taking possession of the computer, it booted to the Mountain Lion OS X Utilities screen. I'm not sure which version of Mountain Lion it is.
I tried a few things:
-All the disks verified and were fine in Disk Utility.
-Online recovery not possible
-Held Option while booting to select the Recovery partition, but it still booted to the Utilities screen
The online recovery was not possible because because the previous owner's AppleID had not purchased it previously, as the computer was pre-loaded with ML at the factory. I'm not sure what options I have left here. Any advice would be helpful.
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8)
