Let’s get moving

It’s easy to move files like documents, email, photos, music, and movies to your new iMac from another Mac or a PC. The first time you start your new iMac, it walks you through the process step by step. All you have to do is follow the onscreen instructions.

Using your Magic Mouse

Your Apple Magic Mouse comes with two AA batteries and is already paired with your iMac using Bluetooth®, so as soon as you turn on the mouse you’ll be ready to go. To adjust the tracking, clicking, and scrolling speed or to add secondary button support, choose System Preferences from the Apple menu, then click Mouse. Here are some tips on getting the most out of your Magic Mouse.

Using your Apple Wireless Keyboard

Your Apple Wireless Keyboard comes with two AA batteries and is already paired with your iMac using Bluetooth, so they can communicate with each other as soon as you turn on the keyboard. To customize your keyboard or assign keyboard shortcuts, choose System Preferences from the Apple menu, then click Keyboard. Here are some basics that make interacting with your iMac easy.

Get to know your desktop

The desktop is where you can find everything and do anything on your iMac. The menu bar at the top has lots of useful information, including the status of your wireless connection and the battery life of connected Bluetooth devices. The Dock at the bottom is a handy place to keep the apps you use most. It’s also where you can open System Preferences, which lets you customize your desktop and other settings on your iMac. Click the Finder icon to quickly get to all your files and folders.

iCloud

iCloud stores your music, photos, mail, and more. And it wirelessly pushes them to your Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and even your PC. All without docking or syncing. So when you buy a song on one device, it’s automatically downloaded to all your others. And with Photo Stream, your latest photos appear everywhere you want to see them. To customize your iCloud settings, open the Apple menu, choose System Preferences, and click iCloud. Then sign in with your Apple ID and choose the iCloud features you want to use.

An important note
