I was trying to check when my apple care warranty started on my mac pro through Apple's warranty checker and it tells me it can't locate my serial number. Anyone ever been through this situation?

Does the logic board serial number match the computer serial number?
My reason for asking is that 4 months ago my sisters G5 17" logic board supposedly got replaced with a new or refurbished logic board but it seems by the workmanship of the board something fishy is going on.
finding RAM serial number?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently bought Rapidweaver and received the package today. I installed it, entered all the pertinent information including my email and the serial number, registered, and then went upstairs for lunch. Came back down and found that my cute little golden retriever had decided that the envelope, not the box, and not the little booklet... was tasty, so she ate it. I'm left with some cellophane and tiny wet pieces of white paper and no serial number! The software was installed and it is working just fine, and when I "unlocked" or activated it, it said OK, everything is done. Fortunately, the CD was in the Mac while Daisy had some fun.
I don't need to reinstall... but unlike other software (or on a PC in the registry) where you can look in the "about" section and see your serial number, the SN is not shown in the about window. I'm not about to phone the UK over this, but just for security's sake, I'd like to know how to retrieve the serial number on my mac so I can write it down inside the booklet and put it up high.

My FCP 7 keeps on asking me about my serial number. I've thrown that box a long time ago. How can I retrieve the serial number? Also, I don't want to move on to FCP x. Such a horrible interface and system. I want my FCP 7 back. Is there a place where I can download it again. There doesn't seem to be a download software or software available in the market anymore for FCP 7.

I bought a mac that came installed with Adobe CS4 but I had to reinstall the OS due to issues - I was given the CS4 installation disks but no serial number, and now Photoshop is asking for it.
do I have any options or am I up ***** creek? Considering I have the actual disks I thought it was worth asking
Sounds easy. Problem is, it's an internal hard drive in an external enclosure, currently in a 5+hour process of a clone job. I want to get the serial number off it without having to stop the cloning, take apart the external enclosure, and finding the serial number.
System Profiler > Firewire shows me SOME info on the hard drive, but not the serial number.
Anyone know of a way to get that serial number? Maybe a freeware app or something? I've struck out so far.
is there a unique serial for every copy of OSX? im not talking about what you enter when you install windows. I didnt see anything on the box for Leopard.

Today when I tried to find the serial number of my MacBook in "About This Mac" and System Profiler it says Serial Number System Sal#. I haven't replaced the logic board or had any service done and I'm wondering why it would suddenly disappear like this. My MacBook also has not been "sleeping" when the battery gets low, the computer just shuts off without the low power sleep state it usually goes into around ~1% battery left.
View 4 Replies View RelatedToday I got an iBook G4 (M9164LL/A) from a friend. When I went into the "About This Mac" menu, the serial number was not displayed (it just said 'Serial Number' when I clicked through). I went into "System Profiler" and got the same results - no serial number. After doing some research on the Internet it seems that the logic board may have been replaced. I am currently reinstalling Tiger to see if that clears it up. If not, does anybody know where I can download the utility to reset the serial number? I bet the Genius Bar wouldn't have the utility and would charge to send it to their repair center.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently purchased an upgrade download for windows 7 online. i ended up buying windows 7 professional but now realize it's not eligible for an upgrade from windows vista home basic, only custom install. My question is, if i were to obtain a copy of the windows 7 home upgrade instead of pro, can i use the serial number i purchased for windows 7 professional on a win7 home install, or are they specific to version?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI recently had my MBP taken to the Geek Squad to have the optical drive replaced under the extended warranty through BestBuy (which I didn't know I was getting BestBuy's warranty, not the AppleCare). When I sent it in, they replaced the bottom casing, optical drive, and the logicboard. When I got it back, I noticed that my serial number for my MBP is missing, they didn't enter the number when they replaced the logicboard. Is there a way so I can personally enter my serial number back into my MBP. I figure if I go back to BB, they will send my MBP off to the service center in Kentucky or something.

Can someone tell me how to read the Serial Number. I did a search, but could not find this information.
I have 2 licenses for Final Cut Studio 2:
1 is an upgrade from FCS1 for MBpro1
The other is a stand-alone (NFR copy) for MBpro2.
I need to transfer the upgrade licence from MBpro1 to MBpro2 And install the NFR copy onto MBPro1 for the first time.
2 problems in one here:
1) On install of the NFR copy, it does not invite me to enter the new serial number.
2) The installation hangs after about 20 minutes.
While it was hanging I noticed I could run the newly installed FCP program and sure enough it still retained the earlier Upgrade serial number.
So... QUESTION 1
How do I uninstall the upgrade completely so that I can enter the new licence number.
QUESTION 2
Were I to fix Q1 would problem 2 go away? or is this a probable installation disc fault? or something else?
