I have a security question.
And I know its a strange question, but I have no idea where to ask it.
I recently bought a second hand M1 Mac Mini, and it all looked good. Even though it was wiped, I rewiped it just in case, and installed Mac OS Ventura (Public Beta).
When I go into the Find my app on the desktop, I am seeing all my family and friends , devices etc.
(I use my iPhone as my main "Find me" device for sharing my location)
However, when it comes to "Me" on the Mac OS app, I am seeing that my usual icon profile pic is not there and a different icon with someone else's initials are in place (my initials are "MP").
I contacted Apple support and they didn't know what it was, and because this is a beta release, they cannot comment (officially).
I had them look over the serial number, and they could see that had previously been registered to someone else and the warranty had expired. And they could see that I was now the current signed in user.
Can anyone check if they have a public beta of Ventura, if a similar issue is happening to them ?
So that I can try and work out if its a Ventura issue at the moment.
Cheers
