Hi Sarah, thanks for sending me the instructions on clearing my Mac book of
every thing, does it matter that when I switch my Mac back on and hold down the
command and r, if the users group and the log in screen appears when I turn the
voice over on.
When I reinstall Yosemite etc, do I have to do in a differe way, to how you
install from Maverick to Yosemite, sorry for all thee questions, but this is
the first time that I have done this myself, that's why I love having a Mac I
don't have to wait for a family member to do it for me, with voice over I can
do it and if I get stuck, I know I can ask for help and advice from you all on
this group, thanks again, Sarah.

7. go to erace.

You should be able to reinstall your os from scratch and then leave the user
to activate it from there.

Actually if you go to security options in disk utility under the erace
section for the drive, you could do a 1 pass wipe of 0s and that shoudl be
enough. I woudl not go past tha tas the time to have a secure erace varies.
Take care.

Depends on exactly how wiped you want the laptop to be. You could start
in recovery mode, reformat the hard drive and reinstall OSX but it’s
possible with the right tools to still extract data that was on the
machine before the erase / reformat took place. If you need to have
things very secure you’ll need to find software that wipes the disk by
repeatedly writing junk data over the surface. You could also use magnets
but that probably would negatively impact the inner workings of the
laptop. How secure do you want it to be?
