Apple website doen't recognise the serial number on my iPod Nano
Strange and frustrating!
I have a 1st generation iPod Nano. I received an email from Apple about a replacement program for the iPod Nano. I have been trying to check my serial number on the apple website, but it is not being recognised.
I took the product to the apple store in covent garden (london) where the CSR confirmed it looked right, and that if it wasn't being recognised I should email apple to get an answer. But I can't find an email address anywhere, all routes through the official support site seem to end in a dead end. I am bored looking!
Any advice from the community? it feels like a simple request from the mighty technology company.....to be able to email someone a sensible question!
Many Thanks
Matt
The Apple Store you visited should have been abled to assist you with the replacement process as well. Why not just bring it back and have them help you get the process started?

I am trying to register my iPhone 4S for mobile phone insurance but the website does not recognise the serial number. Has anyone experienced this, and any idea how I can rectify the problem?
When using the iPhone with the Windows OS, you need to have the Apple Mobile Device Service running. It should start automatically when you start the computer, but sometimes things happen. Use this support document to try and restart the service. See if that helps.

Police are asking me for the serial number of my iPod nano that was stole. I registered the product when I purchased it. Why is it so difficult (impossible) to find this number?

Easy. Use My Support Profile to find a list of serial numbers for items purchased or registered with your Apple ID. -
Adobe photoshop cs2 download on adobe website does not work- the serial number does not work?
photoshop cs2 download on adobe website does not work - the serial number given isn't recognised when you enter it when trying to install. the live chat at adobe cannot help and suggested that I may find the answer here. Can anyone help with this?
Adobe has decommissioned the CS2 activation servers, so your old serial number is no longer usable.
If you download the special non-activating version of CS2 that Adobe has made available to licensed CS2 users, you MUST also use the new serial number provided by Adobe on that download page:

That S/N does work. I double checked. -

I've just bought a MacBook Pro The system won't recognise the serial number which I've copied very carefully several times from the underside of the computer
The helpline is closed Any ideas? I don't know what the operating system is - how do I find that out?What are you trying to do?
The operating system can be found by going to the Apple menu and selecting "About this Mac"
Under "Mac OS X" should be the Version 10.6.x, clicking Software Update will update the operating system via the internet. -
Question: I have just taken delivery of my LR5 disc. I had already downloaded the trial version. I just tried entering the serial number from my hard copy to authorise my downloaded trial version and it did not recognise the serial number. So, I loaded the hard copy, and the instructions said that it would just overwrite the downloaded version. And again it will not recognise my serial number! I am not wanting to uninstall the trial version as I have already got quite a lot of personal preferences entered etc. Help please. I am on a macbook pro with latest OS

Why won't Apple register the serial number for my ipod?
Apple won't register the serial number for my ipod purchased at a Walmart. Also noticed there is no settings icon in the upper left corner and can't connect to my own internet connection at home. Any suggestions?
Purchased new. Did not try to register thru iTunes. Just wanted to hook up via my wi-fi connection at home. Why won't Apple register my serial number without hook up to iTunes?

HT201365 can i track my apple device just by knowing the serial number ?
can i track my apple device just by knowing the serial number ? my Idevice has been stolen but i did not activate ''find my Iphone'' on it and now i'm wondering if i could find my iphone just by knowing the serial number
Unfortunately, no. The serial number will only help you file a claim with your insurance company and a police report. The IMEI number will help your carrier blacklist the phone so it cannot be used on thier network. But you needed to enable Find My iPhone on it before it was lost in order to track it.
