"Appleid: Do you need an antivirus on your MAC, or has anyone had an issue with access to their appleid's and/or any Apple Device?"

Antivirus Software for a Mac:

A. No. You do not need antivirus on your Mac. It just gets in the way. Read the forums, and you'll find plenty example of how and why. So, keep Security Software off of your Mac.
