Let’s get started
Press the power button to start up your MacBook Pro, and Setup Assistant guides you through a few simple steps to get you up and running. It walks you through connecting to your Wi-Fi network and creating a user account. And it can transfer your documents, email, photos, music, and movies to your new Mac from another Mac or PC.
Sign in with your Apple ID in Setup Assistant. This sets up your account in the Mac App Store and the iTunes Store, and in apps like Messages and
FaceTime, so they’re ready the first time you open them. It also sets up iCloud, so apps such as Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Safari have all your latest information. If you don’t have an Apple ID, create one in Setup Assistant.
