If you want to help a friend to fix a Mac or want to buy a used Apple machine you will need detailed and extensive information about the computer. The easiest and fastest way to create a document that can be emailed is to export a text document with all the details from System Profiler. Here are detailed instructions:

  1. Open Applications/Utilities/System Profiler application
  2. Select the level of detail of information from View menu: Mini / Basic / Full
  3. Select File/Save as menupoint
  4. Select Plain Text format from the drop down

This document can be emailed and opened with TextEdit.
