Stuck with Remote Desktop 3 without the serial number:(

I am the new tech assistant for my lab of 35 macs..
The computer used for managing the lab with remote desktop has crashed.
I have found an older model mac with remote desktop. I'd like to transfer that application
to my newer mac...but It will ask me for the serial number of which I do not have.
The old tech assistant has gone..and along with it...the software and document.
I have turned this lab upside down and I've found the box Apple Remote Desktop 3
but nothing else. I thought maybe the serial number would be on it.  But I see
only the bar code... I am frustrated to no end. They don't answer my emails for help
Sincerely,
Love using Apple Remote Desktop 3 user but can not anymore:(

IIRC the serial number was never on the outside of the box so have you looked inside the box? Do you see the booklet that came with the box? Is the Serial Number inside? The Serial Number takes this form:
XARD-030-000-x-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-x
Who is not answering your emails for help?
Having read the terms and conditions of this forum prior to posting you'll know these are user-to-user forums and Apple are not listening, so it's difficult to see what any of us here can do to help? Perhaps if you find the purchase receipt you might be able to contact your local Apple Rep and ask if they have a record of it?
You can still use Remote Desktop by purchasing it again from the App Store. It costs far, far less than the installer media version and does not require a serial number. All you need is an Apple ID and an associated debit or credit card.

    i just got my ipod stolen how do i track it without the serial number please help my parents will kill me

    The serial number does not help you track it. You can't track it without Find my iPod. If you did have Find my iPod, I have no doubt the thief disabled it by now. So it's gone.

    Hi,
    You need to contact Apple Support somewhere along the line.
    In iTunes go to the Store and then to the bottom  of the page and click Support.
    This will open a web page to start the process.
    My UK version take me here http://www.apple.com/uk/support/itunes/
    At the bottom of this Menu is Contact Support.
    Click this then in the new Page chose the iTunes option on the right hand pane.  (UK version http://www.apple.com/uk/support/itunes/contact/)
    You now get led through a set of support questions.
    Keep to the ones about Managing your Account until you reach the end and are offered email contact.
    Explain the problem to them giving as much detail as you can. Dates and things you do know.

  • Accessing the iCloud without the serial number

    Hello, my job was terminated and I no longer have the company issued iPhone 5.  I bought a replacement LG F6 cell phone but now I cannot receive texts from iPhones.  I'm told I have to go into the iCloud and delete some of the settings like the phone finder.  I tried this but Apple support requests the serial number.  Since I no longer have the iPhone I'm wondering how I can do this?

    Go to www.icloud.com, log in with your Apple ID & Password, and remove the device from Find My iPhone.
    Go to appleid.apple.com, and change your password to your Apple ID, and change the primary email address of your Apple ID.
    Also, you can call Apple Support and request assistance if that doesn't work.  They can remove your current phone number from association with your Apple ID.

  • How to find where an ipod is without the serial number

    HELP PLZZ

    The serial number will not help.
    If you enabled "find my iPod" in Settings, you can use iCloud. Its location will be determined when it connects to a wireless network, presuming the network's location is also known.

  • How can I find out the serial number for my FCE 4.0 that came with my old MacBook Pro?

    When I try and open my old FCE projects on my new MacBook Pro, a dialog box pops up and asks me to input the serial number for my Final Cut Express program. The software came pre-loaded on my old MacBook Pro which died. Luckily, my local Apple store was able to transfer the fcp files to my new MacBook Pro, which came with FCP X installed. I just can't open those files without the serial number of the FCE 4.0 program.
    Message was edited by: Garyb1978

    It is almost impossible to transfer FCE as there are so many essential hidden files that workers in an Apple Store will know nothing about. The app needs to be installed from the original DVD.
    Other than buying another copy your only chance  (very remote) is to contact the Apple Store and see if they are able to get a replacement number from Apple.

  • HT1349 How do I transfer programs between macs without having the serial number?

    I previously ordered a 2010 macbook pro and had both microsoft office and aperture pre-installed.  I now have a new macbook air and am trying to transfer the two programs over.  I do not have the original packaging since they came pre-installed so I am wondering how I can install them on the new mac without the serial number?

    Hey kdoy071,
    Thanks for the question. Moving your information with Migration Assistant should do the trick:
    OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mountain Lion and earlier

    If you have OS X Mavericks, see this article:

    Note that if your previous software is not compatible with the new system or OS, it may not function properly.

  • CS5 Student Edition - can I install without the serial?

    I've just sent off my proof of student-ism, and it says it takes between 1 and 3 days.  Can I install it yet, or should I wait for the code?
    Thanks
    Dan

    Hey Dan,
    I do some work with Adobe and can help answer this for you. If you would like, you can install the software now without the serial number and use it as a trial edition for up to 30 days. Once you recieve your serial number, which it seems you have sent for, you can then enter the number on the appropriate page and you will be good to go. Thanks.

  • My Macbook pro was stolen today-  I need the serial number

    Can this be retrieved by way of iCloud or Time Capsule? AppleCare doesn't CARE at all! Please Help. The Sheriff's Dept can't do anything without the serial number as well. *****!

    Where did you buy it?
    If you know that and/or have a receipt (or can ask for a copy), they usually list the serial number on the purchase receipt (at least at the third party Mac store I've done buiness at). Or, did you register it at the Apple website - you should be able to look it up there. Or, do you have the box it came in - serial number is on the lable.

  • Where or where is the serial number?????

    I cannot install my photoshop without the serial number.  I bought this is at Best Buy and there is no serial number on the back of the DVD case, the link that is given www.adobe.com/go/getserial is a broken link and there is nothing when I got to "About photoshop" on my Mac.  Any suggestions of where to go or how to find it??? This should NOT be this difficult.  I was so excited to get this now I am just super frustrated and angry!
