Jul 31, 2016 1:21 PM in response to TahaniAbuljadailby lllaass,Just what are you trying to do?
What OSX version?
What model Mini?
The Mac Mini should have been erased when you received so yo can install your own media. Apps "purchased" from the Mac App Store are locked to the account that originally purchased them.

Aug 1, 2016 11:35 AM in response to TahaniAbuljadailby K Shaffer,If the person you bought the Mini from is available and can help, they
may be able to clear up the matter in a few moments with instruction
from an Apple Support article, linked here:
•What to do before selling or giving away your Mac - Apple Support
If they are not available, and the computer does not have an activation
lock or other protective system enabled, you may be able to see if the
computer could use OS X Recovery to access online servers, then:
•How to reinstall OS X - Apple Support
There is a chance you may have a bit of extra trouble to make use of
this computer under the circumstances, due to how secure the OS is.
There may be other things you could try &/or do to re-install the OS X
and start over with a new OS X install, with the Mac personalized to
your AppleID. To assume other factors were not put to use, the issue
may not be terribly difficult. However, certain secure features may be
a roadblock to your progress.
And for that my friend, I haven't an answer.
Good luck with this matter, in any event!
