A:

You change the Computer Name in Sharing preferences, if that is what you are asking about. If not, then you need to be more clear about what you need to know.

 

If this is a newly bought but used computer, then you should erase the drive and reinstall the original version of OS X that came with it. Then let the new owner configure it: What to do before selling or giving away your Mac - Apple Support.
