If you chose to bypass registration and quit Setup Assistant in the previous step, then you can skip this step. If Setup Assistant is still running, you’re only a few clicks away from accessing your new OS and its desktop. But first, you can decide whether to create a .Mac (soon to be known as MobileMe) account.
.Mac Account
- The Setup Assistant will display information for creating a .Mac account. You can create a new .Mac account now or bypass the .Mac signup and move on to the good stuff: using your new Leopard OS. I suggest bypassing this step. You can sign up for a .Mac account at any time. It’s more important right now to ensure that your OS X Leopard installation is complete and working properly. Select ‘I don’t want to purchase .Mac right now.’
- Click the ‘Continue’ button.
- Apple can be very stubborn. It will give you a chance to reconsider and purchase a .Mac account. Select ‘I don’t want to purchase .Mac right now.’
- Click the ‘Continue’ button.
