Server?

Setting up imac 27. It says it can’t find the server. I’m tech challenged. Help!

From the obvious things to check list, are you connected to the internet?


Not being able to find the server means there is a problem with your internet or the server is overloaded or the server is down and etc. In cases like that, the fix is to try again. Maybe several times.


You might try cycling your Wi-Fi on and off. When you get the error message, turn Wi-Fi off using the signal strength icon, wait say ten seconds, turn it back on, give it time to reconnect (check the icon) and retry setup.
