How to setup your new Apple Mac

Please hook your computer up to a charger and turn it on.

Select your Country

Select your Keyboard Layout

Connect to the internet using PAWS-Secure or whatever stable internet connection you have access to.

A screen will popup called “Remote Management.” Please select continue or Enroll at the bottom of the page. (If this screen does not appear please stop and contact Warnell IT)

Login with your MyID@uga.edu and Password

From here, you will be asked a series of questions on how you want to setup your Mac.

Ex. Setup Touch ID, Log in with your applied, Personalization, etc.

If you skip any of these, you will still be able to apply these settings later.

After these settings it will prompt you to enter a password for your account. This can be any password, and it will be the password to log into your Macbook from now on. I strongly advise to make this your MYID password. You can also change your password after setup.

Once on the desktop you will receive multiple notifications. (It may be overwhelming, I cant control this yet)

There will be prompts for ScreenConnect and Cisco. Please follow the instructions on the window that has popped up. This will allow Cisco and Screen Connect to function properly.

There will also be a message that pops up eventually asking to register. Please click on this link and follow the on screen instructions.

Once all this is done you are ready to go!

If you require assistance in the future we will be able to remote into the computer when requested to assist.

If you have any trouble during this setup please feel free to reach out to Warnell IT.
