Hi Guys...
I know, this topic has probably been covered many times before but just in case I get it wrong, can you please tell me how to erase and reinstall to factory settings? I have a late 2013 iMac running OSX Yosemite, when I bought it I made the mistake of transferring everything over from my old iMac, including but unknown at the time, some problems that the old one had. The new iMac has never been right and I had to change over to Chrome to get it to function. Anyway, as I said, it has never run as it should so I have finally reached the point where I just want to return it to its factory settings and start again, this time setting it up manually to avoid any problems! I have had a look at a number of clips on YouTube on how to erase and reinstall but they say conflicting things, so I don't really trust following any of them. One thing, I'm not sure if I have a CD that might have come with the new iMac, can I erase and reinstall to factory settings without a disc and, if so, can you tell me how, preferably in easy to follow steps? Your help would be very much appreciated...
Cheers, John
