If it is an old iMac (how old is it?) and has Yosemite on it, post back after you create the Apple ID so you can try the app store - if it works, fine. If not, the seller did not do what he was supposed to do:


the seller must remove (erase) the OS downloaded from the app store because the license is not transferable - if the seller did not do this, then you can't reinstall the OS or update apps.
