I am selling my apple mac pro but do not know how to deregister and register it to the new owner; how do you do this?

I am selling my apple mac pro but do not know how to deregister and register it to the new owner; how do you do this?

Before you sell or give away your computer, in addition to the steps mentioned in this support article, take these steps:
Run Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test. The buyer will do this (or he should), and you don't want to be surprised by the results.
Reset the PRAM and the SMC, which might contain personal information.
If you set a firmware password, remove it by running Firmware Password Utility in Recovery mode.
If you activated FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, turn it off.
If you use Boot Camp, the partition must be deleted
If you created any other data partitions on the internal drive, remove them in Disk Utility.
Erase the data partition(s) with the option to zero out data. An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.
You can't legally or practically transfer any software downloaded from the Mac App Store to the new owner of the machine, even if it was free. That includes OS X, so if you upgraded to OS X 10.7 or later, you must reinstall an older OS, either from the installation media, if applicable, or by booting into Internet Recovery (option-command-R at the startup chime.) If you installed from physical media, deliver those to the new owner.
If you're selling the machine, or donating it in working order, and it originally shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, then you have the option of installing either from the discs that came with it or from a retail Snow Leopard disc (which you must then transfer with the machine.) The buyer should understand that if he doesn't get the original discs from you, he won't get the bundled iLife applications or the Apple Hardware Test. Replacements for the original discs can be ordered from Apple.
The new owner will have to redownload any software that came from the App Store, including OS X upgrades, under his or her Apple ID. If you ever updated the bundled iLife applications (Garage Band, iMovie, and iPhoto) through the App Store, you can't transfer those either.
Remove the machine from your list of registered products. If it's still covered by an AppleCare Protection Plan, transfer the coverage to the new owner by following the instructions in the AppleCare Terms and Conditions (under the heading "Transfer of Plan.")

BT Keyboard Caps Lock Light

Under iOS 7, the Caps Lock light on the Apple BT keyboard no longer works. Pairing it with an iOS 6 device makes it work again. What did Apple do to break this?

It's a compatability issue with the new iOS. The Apple Wireless Keyboard isn't actually made for iOS devices, but the compatability was added later early in iOS 6. It's not officially supported which is probably why it wasn't included in the initial rollout, but it's likely something they'll fix once they have all the security/performance bugs worked out.

I cannot log into my mac. I have determined that the caps lock is on no matter if the caps lock light is on or off. Anything I can do?

Begin by resetting the SMC and PRAM each at least 2x. If that won't work book an appointment at your local Apple Store or AASP. However before doing so, after you have done the resets (assuming they do not work) test another keyboard to determine if it's the keyboard or computer.

Why does caps lock light remains on when I turn off my macbook pro?

I had a problem recently come up with my MacBook Pro Early 2011 15 inch 2.0 ghz computer. The the caps lock light initiates at boot up. When I depress caps lock the light goes off but then only allows capital letters. All sybols associtated with depressing the cap button such as the "at" sign are screwed up. When I turn my computer off with safe mag attached, the caps light remains on. When I remove the safe mag, the caps light goes off. Any clues as to what is going on?
Thank you for your inputs ahead of time.

Seeking Mac Compatible Keyboard with "large easy see" CAPS LOCK LIGHT

Can anybody reccomend a keyboard for the mac that has large easy to see Caps Lock Light in the centre of view on a keyboard?
I have a Macally keyboard - it has a caps and num lock light - but it is far to the right of the keyboard - and I cannot see it under office lights - hence I waste a lot of time typing in the wrong tYpE FaCe!
I prefer a wired keyboard - which I plug into my macbookpro, and a shallow travel postive style - ( not being fussy am I !?) but the key issue is that given have to look at the keys to type I wish I could see if caps is on without looking at the screen.
Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance. Guy M.

Would one of these help? It saves buying a new keyboard

Apple wireless keyboard caps lock light wont turn off

I have an apple wireless keyboard that came with my 2011 imac and up untill last month the caps lock light wont turn off even when i turn caps lock off and its draining my battery. usually the keyboard will turn off whenever the computer was off but now i have to turn the whole keyboard off everytime im not using it to save battery.

It is probably faulty. If you are close to one, I suggest you take it to an Apple store for diagnosis.

Apple wireless keyboard. Caps Lock light quit working.

I know it's a small thing but all of a sudden the Caps Lock light quit working. A real pain for entering passwordssince you can't see if their in caps or not. Can this be fixed?

What does resetting the PRAM mean? How is that done?
<http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11243>
It works best with a USB keyboard. With a wireless keyboard, try pressing the keys just after the startup BOING.
You will need to reset the "Startup Disk" system preference after a PRAM reset.

Caps lock light

The caps lock light on my Macbook Pro is always off. The caps lock key works but the green led is not working. Any suggestions?
PS: The I already tried resetting the pram
Thanks.

Have you tried [resetting the SMC|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964]? Failing that, a trip to the Apple Store might be in order.

My Macbook built-in keyboard has stopped responding, (even caps lock light does not come on). What can I do as cannot even login to computer?

There has been no spillage and it has not been dropped.

Do you have access to a USB wired Apple (or maybe even a PC) keyboard?
That may be used to help troubleshoot the internal keyboard and on startup
be able to access (or see if you can) the System, and attempt to see about
troubleshooting. See if it will start in SafeBoot, (shift key held down just after
startup tone, if it runs in safeboot, then login to see if you can read system
logs in Console) and another idea may be to attempt to start in Recovery &
then attempt to use OS X Utilities there to see if you can verify and then to
repair the hard disk drive, and do some checks on the hardware.

Was the computer an Apple official refurbished unit bought direct from Apple?
Did you get an extended warranty from Apple - if it were directly bought there?
Usually these are online purchases from Apple Store; other companies offer
repaired or restored used computers and call them 'refurbished' or they may
have bought actual refurbished from Apple stock; these may be resold on ebay
or via amazon, and may or may not have a residual warranty of some kind.
In some cases the keyboard may fail due to some connection on the logic board
not fitting correctly, or some other loose wire; however if the battery may have
swollen, that could contribute to issues with both trackpad and keyboard.
A visit to an authorized Apple service provider is recommended, or contact the
seller you bought yours from to ask if they may offer suggestions or perhaps a
discount on diagnostic + repair if there is no warranty on the product.

Good luck & happy computing!

Wireless keyboard caps lock light goes out

I recently got an Apple Wireless Keyboard along with my new iMac. It seems that after a few days, the caps lock light stops coming on when it should. If i restart, the functionality comes back. Is that a software bug or a bluetooth bug, or neither? Anyone else noticing this problem?

You've posted this in the "Older Hardware Products" forum which mostly involves pre-G4 and the pre-wireless era stuff. I can't see an immediate alternative forum but I can't help think there must be a better one than this. On the other hand somebody with bluetooth, airport extreme, Intel Mac, and Leopard may wander through this museum someday and reply to your post.
Knowing nothing about wireless my question is does it lose the functionality or is it just the light going out? Weak battery (I suppose it must have a battery)?

Caps Lock Light Broken. Well sort of.

About a week ago my caps lock light got very faint, I actually have to be in a completely dark room to see it. I assumed the LED had gone out or the keboard had become faulty. I was going to take it to my apple store to have it looked at when something wierd happened. I started my computer in windows (through bootcamp) and all of a sudden the light on the caps lock key worked fine. So, I can say with certainty this is not a hardware issue, as it only occurs in OSX. Anyone got any ideas to solve this, or know what is even going on?
Thanks

That is strange ...even to have the led at a state in between 'on' or 'off'. Have you tried running your standard maintenance scripts or reset the SMC?
