Migrating from iMac to MacBook. How can I remove account from the iMac?

I have an iMac and will be migrating to a new MacBook. I'm giving my iMac (relatively new - less than a year old) to a friend, so I'll need to transfer all my data, and make the iMac "theirs".
How will I "undo" all my acount/registraion on the iMac so that they are able to control the software update, iTunes account, mail accounts, etc?
Thank you in advance.

Click here, follow the instructions, press the Command and S keys when the computer restarts, and enter the following into the prompt:
shutdown -h now
Include the disks with it.

You cannot remove or change the old ID. This is Find My iPhone Activation Lock. You need to recover the credentials for the Apple ID originally used to activate the iPad.

How can I remove or replace the " Java coffee cup " icon ???

I'd like to ask everybody some questions about the " Java coffee cup " icon
doesn't JToolbar be able to pull out of Frame?
but the JToolbar which was pulled out would have a little Java coffee cup icon
just like JOptionPane,JDailog or JFrame.
Is there any solution to remove this icon??
equally....
How can I remove or replace the little Java coffee cup icon of the title in
JDialog or JOptionPane??
Taking JFrame for instance, if I use "this.setIconImage(xxxxxxx);" then I can
change the little Java coffee cup icon.
but it seemed invalid to use it in JDialog.
How can I solve it in JToorbar,JDailog and JOptionPane ???
my e-mail : [email protected]

this seems to be to most asked question at least in this forum.... only topped by the question about 'how to make an exe out of java apps' in the Java Programming Forum.
Sorry, but is there anybody who has noticed those useful textboxes where it says 'Search'? I mean before there were computers one had to go to a library, ask somebody or perform extensive research until answers were found. Or one had to buy books only to find out the the other book he though about buying would have been better.
Nowadays, simply type somthing like 'coffe cup' into a place where it is possible to do so and click into a region where it says 'Search' somewhere. Not even necessary to go to a froum like this and swamp it with the one trillionth version of this question, almost any search box might bring an answer (let it be right or not..).
Although I have to admit that this instance is the most prosaic and least understandable one I have seen for long...
Again sorry but I had to say that.

How can i remove all of the purchased songs from my phone?

I want to remove all of the purchased songs from my phone, but I'm not having any success. I've transferred the purchases to iTunes, and turned off the cloud on my phone, but they are still there. They will not let me delete them...

It's an iPhone 5S, I'm running the latest OS, 8.1.
OK, maybe time to get extreme. I've had similar experiences, sometimes occurring after making direct-to-device purchases and sometimes after doing an iOS update. In the two times I've experienced what you've seen I've fixed it by digging deeper, bear with me:
If your iPhone is not set for manual management, do so. (i.e. select "Manually manage music and video")
While connected to iTunes, navigate the contents of the iPhone. Select all songs and delete them. Ignore the gray ones if still present.
Eject the iPhone and go to Settings/ General/ Usage/ Manage Storage. Let the list populate then select the Music category. In the next screen, swipe across "All Songs" from right to left and tap Delete.
Connect back to iTunes, perform a backup, then restore the iPhone and reload the backup.
Your iPhone should now have its settings, accounts, and apps back, but no music -- not even the "ghost" entries. Add the music back that you want, either via manually dragging and dropping from iTunes, or auto-syncing all or a portion of your library.
Some people reported luck with just step #3. The problem I've had with that, is any music that I want remaining on the iPhone gets corrupted, such that playback will skip and/or show the wrong artwork. By deleting all music first, then following up with a restore, that seems to clear the problem. Personally I avoid direct-to-device purchases since I've had spooky occurrences almost every time where the purchases are very difficult to remove.

How can I remove backups on the backup disk by date

I want to save some room on my Time Machine drive. Time Machine keeps weekly backups endlessly. What I want to do is for longer ago, I only want a monthly backup. I know these backups are just hard links if nothing has changed, but removing older backups will actually delete the last link on some files, so it will free up space.
I do not want to drop any particular directory or file, so going back in the TimeMachine interface and deleting something there is not what I want. E.g. I have a directory where I work on a book. In that directory, my text files are edited and PDF files are generated. I want to keep those of the last months, but older ones may disappear. I only want reasonably recent backups for files that change often. Keeping only once a month backup would automatically thin the backups for files that change often.
I remember having done this a while ago, but I cannot remember how. I recall that I actually did hack the TM backup, removing the subdirectories for 3 weeks out of every month long ago. But I do not know exactly how.
Thanks,

That error message is misleading. Your problem is excessive swapping of data between physical memory and virtual memory.
That can happen for two reasons:
You have a long-running process with a memory leak (i.e., a bug), or
You don't have enough memory installed for your usage pattern.
Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
In the Activity Monitor application, select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
from the menu bar.
If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
The process named "Safari Web Content" renders web pages for Safari and other applications. It uses a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider it a prime suspect.
If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

How can I removed something on the blocklist?

I've noticed I have an add-on that I don't care for but now I am unable to remove it, it states that it's been put on a block list and now there's no "Remove" button on the right. How do I uninstall this add-on?

There was never a Remove or Uninstall button for either of those "extensions", which is the main reason why they ended up on the Blocklist to begin with.

How can i remove some of the music from my phone

I need to free up some space on my phone, but I can't seem to delete some of the old music.

If you update the iOS your phone, you could delete the music directly on your phone(introduced with iOS 5.0). Otherwise, you connect your phone, iTunes running & deselect the music you don't want on your phone, then sync to remove it.

Help - how can I remove text in the background?

I am translating a text from English into Portuguese in a document created in Germany (as .mif 7).
After I inserted the Portuguese text, a ruler and the words "498 Entwurf 15.06.2011" in red and "Abstand" in sky blue started to appear in the background, as well as some kind of a grid (please see attached image). I need them to disappear when the document is printed, but I haven't been able to make them disappear so far. The words in red indicate the name of the document (498) and the date when it was originally created. I need the document to have a white background only with the letters in black and images (just like the original, but in Portuguese - no words in sky blue and red and no grid).
This is probably easy to solve and I may sound really silly, but I've already lost 3 hours and I'm getting desperate because I need to deliver the document as soon as possible.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Best,
Paulo Rodrigues

Hi,
I think the converter you are using to convert it to portuguese is a free converter and it has been noticed that when you use the free or trial version of any converter ,it generally puts its name in the PDF document and you have to buy that product to get rid of it.If thats true then we would not be able to remove that text.
Kindly let me know if thats correct what i said.
Thanks
Harpreet.
