In order to provide you with a better shopping experience, once we have completely wiped the data from a computer, we allow us to configure it for you, as we want to verify that the installed operating system is fully functional in every part.
On each reconditioned computer, a standard user name is then entered (example MacBook Pro), and a password that is also written in a sticker attached to the product itself.
The password usually entered is smart
Should you still have problems retrieving your password, please contact us, and we will be able to reset it together.
- International Keyboards are the most similar to the Italian ones, the alphabetical and numerical characters are placed in the same order. The only more 'obvious' difference relates to accented characters. They are not natively entered on the keyboard, but can be typed by pressing the key you wish to accentuate for longer.
Example: To type the letter 'À', simply hold down the letter 'A'. An accent selection will automatically appear on the screen (a bit like on the iPhone and iPad).
- Swedish/German/Spanish keyboards are almost identical to the Italian ones, again the main difference is in the accented characters. In this case, we supply a professional sticker kit that will totally transform the keyboard into Italian, so there will be no difference at all to the Italian keyboards.
Italian keyboard conversion kits can be purchased for less than 10€, directly in the category 'Accessories of other brands'.
