How do I clear all the stuff on my computer?
I am planning on selling my iMac and I need to clear all the files and memory from it before I sell it. Can someone tell me how to restore the settings or clear the stuff or whatever? I have no idea what to do.
If you’re sure you don’t want ANYTHING at all in that computer, then what I think you do is take out the floppy disk? Not exactly sure on that but if you have a BestBuy nearby you could ask a computer tech who works for Geek Squad, those guys are good.
no no, just buy a new WINDOWS ( xp/vista/7 ) and format your pc , its easy , just search the steps online , or give it to somebody who’s good at it , and you’ll have a brand new pc :D ( p.s you can wipe the c: disk , the d: disk , or both ) hope i helped :)
I said it’s a mac.. but thanks anyway
Deleting files and even formatting the disk will not overwrite all the data on your disk. What you really need to do before selling it is to wipe the disks. There are various programs out there to wipe disks but one that is free and excellent is DBAN or Derik’s Boot And Nuke. You boot off the CD then choose how thoroughly you wish to wipe your disk ranging from a complete overwriting to a multipass Department of Defense strength disk wipe. If you have a fairly recent Intel based Macintosh you should be able to use DBAN but if you have an older PowerPC based Mac than it is going to be more of a challenge. If you can’t wipe personal information off of the disk you shouldn’t give it to anyone else. Worst case consider removing the hard disk and selling your Mac without a disk. Disk drives are cheap now so your buyer should be able to pick up a bigger faster drive without spending a lot of money.
oooooo sorry i didn see it :S .. sorry
