I recently purchased an iphone 5c.  It requested an Apple ID and Password.  I tried to use e-mail that I use for everything else, wouldn't let me, so I used another one.  It then said that it sent an e-mail so that I could verify the account.  Can't find.

I recently purchased an iphone 5c. Had to enter Apple ID & Password.  Wouldn't let me use same email I use for everything, so used a gmail account.  Then said they send message so that I could verify ID. Problem is I don't know where it is so that I can verify.  All emails are going to other address?

If the system didn't ship with Mountain Lion originally and you didn't purchase Mountain Lion yourself, then you will need to purchase. A purchase by the system's original owner cannot be transferred to you.
Unless you have another system on which you have purchased Mountain Lion, you will need to first install Mac OS X 10.6.8 on the iMac, for which you'll need either the original installation disks, if the iMac came with 10.6, or a retail copy of 10.6. Install 10.6 and upgrade to at least 10.6.6, and then you can buy Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store, presuming of course that the imac can support Mountain Lion. See:
