Need help setting up a used iMac (Leopard)
iMac (iMac 7,1) with Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz, 2 GB Ram with Leopard (10.5.8).
I'm trying to help a friend of mine. She received a used iMac from her son. He left all of his information on it, including 9,180 picture files. However, he does not have the original Leopard disks. She purchased Snow Leopard through Apple and received the disk in the mail.
Here are my questions:
1. Can I just insert the Snow Leopard disk and install it (after backing it up) or do I need to reinstall Leopard first?
2. Do I also need to decommission his ID, so that her ID will be associated with the update?
I'm fairly new when it comes to Macs, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
iMac with Retina 5K display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
