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 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 to my 15" Mac Book Pro?

    I have a 15" Mac Book Pro (the one with the keyboard that matches the outer uni-body and track-pad).  I am having difficulty in finding the actual model number that is associated with this machine ( as it is second hand). I found the serial number and all the other essential specifications to wit I would have interest for scheduled up-keep.  The model number, however, escapes me?  Could someone shed some light on this?  Apologies in advance for appearing thick headed on the matter.  I'm sure it is right in front of me.

    SYSTEM PROFILER>HARDWARE>HARDWARE OVERVIEW>MODEL IDENTITFIER.  Click on the Apple icon in the upper left hand corner, then 'About this Mac' and then 'More I\nfo...'
    Ciao.

    How do i find the iemi number of my lost iPhone?

    If you ever used iTunes to back the phone up to a computer, the following instructions from Find the serial number and other information for your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support may help:
    If you can use iTunes on your computer but don't have your device:
    Go to iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (PC).
    Click the Devices tab.
    Hold your mouse over a backup to display the serial number for that device. You'll also see the IMEI/MEID and CDN for your iPhone or iPad (cellular model).

  • How do I find the Serial number of a locked iphone?

    How do I find the Serial number of a locked iphone?

    Thanks but unfortunately I don't have any of those items to do that. Just have the phone. We are a third party support provider for Pharma companies and they send in their HW when users leave the company or are let go. This particular client deployed this device outside of our company at some point so we did not have the luxury of recording that info when deployed. We also cannot reach the original user to obtain the passcode. All we need is the serial number but need a way to access that on the phone without the passcode and without resetting or restoring the phones IOS.
