Getting Started on Staff New Mac Computer

You must use the following instructions to complete the setup for your new Mac computer, starting April 2022. These instructions MUST be completed on the TTSD wifi (and not off site).

If you prefer a picture step-by-step, please see the Google Slides below for a visual companion to the written instructions.

NOTE: We strongly advise that staff do NOT put on the plastic peel-and-stick camera cover because this can cause screen breakage when closing the laptop's screen (Teachers: Print this Check List and bring it with you to your technician when you get your new computer)

Sync Your Login

Click on the circle with your name and enter test123 for the password to log in to your computer. If your account doesn't show up, click Other.
The "macOS request that you sign into TTSD.TTSD.K12.OR.US" window will appear soon after login. Enter your TTSD issued username and password and click Sign in.
Click Yes when asked if you want to automatically sign in from now on.

With the new computer, all staff must use the AdminByRequest app to request admin privilege when needed.
