Hi,
One thing which * might* happen to you when you get your mac is it might not
talk right out of the box. this happened to both my husband and I when we got
our i macs. How I got around this was to hit the space bar, then enter/return.
After that, there is music, and then it talks and you can set it up by picking
your location, etc. As far as permissions go, etc, I can't think of anything
right now, it's all pretty straightforward.
hth,
Caitlyn
