How do I find a model number for my MacBook?

I am trying to purchase more memory for my MacBook through a website www.crucial.com
When I go to select my model, there are a few options and I don't know how to figure out which is mine. I know mine is a
2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (13" White) but then there's a few different "model numbers"? i.e. MA700LL/A, etc... how do i know which one to pick for my MacBook? I don't see this info under the "About This Mac" info...
any help would be great!!!

So after finally downloading the software from Crucial - it looks like i have a

it says I can only get up to 2G - is that right?!?! A buddy of mine bought his only a few months after me and he can hold 4G - is that right?? I feel jipped if that's the case...
That's the nature of product cycles. I bought a 12" combo-drive iBook G3 600 in March 2002 for $1500. A few months later the 12" iBook G3 800 came out for $1299 with same combo-drive. That's the nature of technology. Some people get obsessive about memory prices, although the current prices for MacBook compatible memory are probably at/near their lowest point.
Running programs like Ableton could use the extra memory. Not sure if Crucial underestimates how much memory it can recognize? Everyone on here seemed to think I could hold at least 3G...
Apple doesn't document it, but apparently it should be able to accept 4GB and use up to 3.3GB. Some retailers recommend just a 2GB + 1GB combination for the cost conscious. Other World Computing lists single modules for people who want to do that. Crucial doesn't make compatibility guarantees for configurations that aren't supported by the manufacturer.

  • How do I find the model number of a MacBook

    A friend of mine has a MacBook that won't start up. How do I find the model number of her MacBook? A number like MBXXXLL/A or MAXXXLL/A.

    HI,
    Do you meant he serial number? If so, click the Apple Menu  then click: About This Mac. You will see Mac O S X. Under that click where you see: Version 10.x.x, then click one more time to see the serial number.
    You can also view this information by launching the System Profiler (Applications/Utilties)
    On the left under Contents select Hardware. The serial number will be displayed on the right.
    Just out of curiosity, how is knowing the serial number going to help trouble shoot this MacBook ??

  • How do I find the model number and year built?

    How do I find the model number of my iMac and what year it was built?

    Depending on the version of Mac OS X: click the apple left side of the menu bar, About This Mac, More Info some versions skip this, System Report, Hardware, and then see what it shows for the Model Identifier - that will say Model IdentifieriMac with a number such as 8,1 or something of that form.
    You can use that to find out the details about the machine by going to http://www.everymac.com and go to the iMacs and then some quick checks on the years to find the match for your Model Identifier.

  • How do I find the model number on my keyboard?

    How do I find the model number on my keyboard? I have an anodised aluminium (short with no numeric pad on it) keyboard that came with my iMac that I bought in 2009, and I am wanting to find out what model it is.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Many of the Apple keyboards have the model number on the underside, often in very tiny grey print that is really, really hard to read
    You can also go to the Apple symbol in the top left corner of your screen, drop down to About this Mac, then click more Info and navigate to the the hardware information about the interfacing equipment.
    If you have your original order information from purchase, it may list each item you received with model/part number.

  • How do I find my serial number for recently purchased disk label

    How do I find my serial number for recently purchased disk label

    Mac App Store (MAS) apps, per Apple, do not have serial numbers, activation codes or passwords. The MAS does not carry tial versions. It carries free and paid versions. A free version usually has less available features than a paid version of the same app.
    If you had a trial version of this app from another source from this same developer, you should have deleted the trial version before downloading the paid version from the MAS. The two versions have now become mixed together. You should get an app such as AppCleaner and completely delete this app and all associated files from your Mac. Then start over and download the paid version from the MAC from the Purchases pane.

    Did you have the "Find my Device" enabled on your AirBook? Look at this web page and maybe you remember setting it up and if you did you could track it and/or disable it the first time it's connected to the internet:
    https://www.apple.com/icloud/find-my-iphone.html
    Report as soon as possible and also make up flier and hand out to all the local pawn shops in case the theif tries to pawn it or sell it. Also keep you eyes out for craigslist ipad sales for AirBooks - you never know how silly some people and try to sell a stolen item that you can prove is yours.
    Good luck...
