Battery Serial Number Report For Laptops?

Does anyone know if there is a way to get a report of the battery serial number via ARD 3?

In theory it should be possible even though I have not tried it. Using system profiler you will be able to gather all sorts of data (Serial Number for computer and Battery Stats like charge capacity, power level, times charged etc... cant remember about Battery serial try it an see).
To run profiler from UNIX comand level, click on the ARD 3.0 Unix icon, type in "system_profiler" and save it as a template for future use.
Accessing system profiles with Terminal
You can generate a system profile with Terminal using the system_profiler command line tool. To use this tool, enter the following command in Terminal: /usr/sbin/system_profiler
For more information about the system_profiler command, enter "man" and system_profiler.

  • WaaS Central Manager - device serial number report available?

    Hi folks,
    just wondering if anyone knows a quick/easy way to talk to the WAAS database to pull serial number information for all of my WAE's installed.  i have 35 devices scattered around 7 states and I'm hoping for an easy way to collect serial number info.
    I was hoping the platform report from the CM would do it, but it does not provide serial numbers of each chasis, only model and software version.
    My thought is the CM probably has this data somewhere?  I'm hoping to avoid having to manually telnet to 35 appliances and run the command 'show inventory' to find the appliance I am looking for.
    anyone have a good shortcut?
    also - anyone know what the database format is?  mysql? postgres?

    The best way to collect serial # remotely from a WAAS device (WAE) is by executing 'show hardware'. You may write a script to get it.
    CM don't provide this info currently.
    Can you please unicast me at '[email protected]' so that I will be able to understand your requirements.
    thanks

  • Battery serial number records

    Hi
    I suspect that when my computer battery has been swopped with a faulty one whilst in a shop that was going to sell it for me. When I took it there it worked perfectly. When I got the computer back now the battery won't charge.
    I'd like to try and trace what the battery serial number for my computer is. The original one that came with my computer. Does anyone know of a way to trace this?
    The About this Mac function brings up a different battery serial number to the one that is on the sticker of the battery. Is this possible?
    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    ntel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    Last Modified: December 09, 2009
    Article: HT3964
    Summary
    The System Management Controller (SMC) is responsible for many low-level functions on Intel-based Macs. These functions include:
    Responding to presses of the power button
    Responding to display lid opening and closing on portable Macs
    Battery management
    Thermal management
    The SMS (Sudden Motion Sensor)
    Ambient light sensing
    Keyboard backlighting
    Status Indicator Light (SIL) management
    Battery status indicator lights
    Selecting an external (instead of internal) video source for some iMac displays
    It is possible that the SMC could encounter a problem that may cause unusual system behavior typically related to the symptoms described below. In some cases, resetting the SMC may be the only correct method to resolve the issue, however, an SMC reset should only be attempted after all other standard troubleshooting has been performed.
    Products Affected
    Portable Computers, Desktop Computers
    Before Resetting the SMC
    Try each of the following steps in this order before you reset the SMC. Test the issue after completing each troubleshooting step to determine if the issue still occurs.
    Press Command + Option + Escape to force quit any application that is not responding.
    Put your Mac to sleep by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Sleep. Wake the computer after it has gone to sleep.
    Restart your Mac by by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Restart.
    Shut down your Mac by by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Shut Down.
    If your Mac appears to be running normally but isn't responding, force the computer to shut down by pressing and holding the power button for 10 seconds. Note: You will lose any unsaved work in any open applications.
    For Mac portables experiencing issues related to the MagSafe power adapter and/or battery, try:
    Unplug the MagSafe power adapter from the Mac and the wall power socket for several seconds.
    Shutdown the Mac. Physically remove and re-insert the battery (if it's removable) and startup the Mac.
    If the issue is still not resolved after following the troubleshooting items above, an SMC reset may be necessary.
    After performing normal troubleshooting, these symptoms may indicate that an SMC reset may be necessary:
    Fans
    The computer's fans speed up quickly and remain at high speed.
    The computer's fans run at high speed although the computer is not experiencing heavy usage and is properly ventilated.
    Lights
    The keyboard backlight appears to behave incorrectly (on Mac computers that have this feature).
    The Status Indicator Light (SIL) appears to behave incorrectly (on Mac computers that have an SIL).
    Battery indicator lights, if present, appear to behave incorrectly (on portables that use non-removable batteries).
    The display backlight doesn't respond correctly to ambient light changes on Mac computers that have this feature.
    Power
    The computer doesn't respond to the power button when pressed.
    A portable Mac doesn't appear to respond properly when you close or open the lid.
    The computer sleeps or shuts down unexpectedly.
    The battery does not appear to be charging properly.
    The MagSafe power adaptor LED doesn't appear to indicate the correct activity.
    System Performance
    The computer is running unusually slowly although it is not experiencing abnormally high CPU utilization.
    Video
    A computer that supports target display mode does not switch into or out of target display mode as expected.
    A computer that supports target display mode switches into or out of target display mode at unexpected times.

    Hi,
    Since you already have one copy activated the serial number must be logged in your account details - I would first check that the one logged and the one you are attempting to enter are the same.
    You can check your account details by going to www.adobe.com and clicking on Manage Account. You need to sign in with your Adobe Id and then click on View All under Plans & Products. Next click on View your products and after a while it should produce your list.
    If there is a problem with the serial number, only Adobe can help you there (we are just users). Please see the response in this thread
    First of all, I would have to say that getting in touch with you is a nightmare and I am not at all happy that I can't just email or live chat with someone who can help!  I am not a technical person, I just want to be able to use Photoshop Elements and ge

  • Maintenance of serial number profile for a material

    Hi,
    We need to maintain serial number profile for a material. Presently there exists stock for this material.
    Could you please let us know the prerequisites for maintaining the serial number profile for a material where stock exists.
    System should not allow to update the material with serial number profile if stock exists, since for the existing stock serial numbers are not available. But in our case, system is allowing to update the profile for the material where stock exists. Could you suggest if any setting/config is missing to throw an error.
    Regards,
    Srinivas

    I have the solution below.
    - Don't change Serial no. profile
    - Goods issue all stock with mvt 201 or 261 into temporary cost object and note your text.
    - Change Serial no. profile in material master
    - Goods receipt all stock (You may ref. material doc.) and you need to input serial number for all materials.
    Hope this solution can help you.

  • Will my serial number work for old versions?

    I am a teacher and have a newer version of the software than my students do. I would like to demo in the same version they use, but it is no longer sold - will my serial number work for older versions of the same program?

    No, the serial number is tied to the version/license you purchased.  Can't you acquire the software in the same way that your students have to?

  • What should I do if I want to use a registered (unused) serial number intended for Mac, for my PC instead?

    I have a registered serial number intended for Adobe CS6 Master Collection for Mac.
    I have not used it on my Mac yet. If I want to use that serial number for my PC instead, what should I do?
    I've contacted support to see if I can get it switched over, but got no response back.

    Hey John, thanks for the quick reply!
    I have actually filled out that form already (just 2 days ago, in fact!) but I can't just sit here twiddling my thumbs
    I'm kind of in a rush. Is there anything I can do to make the process smoother, easier, for Adobe to respond faster?

  • Upgraded from CS5 to CS6 - Serial number not for a qualifying product. Chat not available

    I get a page saying "serial number not for a qualifying product. Please try another. " during install. I upgraded from Design Standard CS5  to Design Standard CS6 .
    Also, Chat is never available to me. 6 tries to no avail so far.
    Any help would be most appreciated or if someone knows how else I can contact Adobe as Chat is never available.
    Thank you.

    I attempted to reslove via CS chat but was unable to get assitance due to it being "outdated".
    In so many words: That's BS. Only support can look into the customer database and they have to sort it out. Contact them again, escalate the case to the next level until you get someone qualified enough to resolve your issue.

  • Goods Issue ./ Serial Number Report

    Guys,
    I want to create a report which gives me the Goods Issue details with the items in the goods issue and Serial Numbers processed in those particular goods issues.
    The problem is that with the following coding, it is returning all the Serial Numbers related to the particular item available in SAP and not only those relating to that particular Goods Issue.  So if I have a quantity of 2 Serial Numbers for one item, it is not returning to Serial Numbers for that Goods Issue, but it is returning all Serial Numbers of the System under that Item.
    I suspect that it is a JOIN problem, what do you think?
    Coding is:
    Select
                        T0.DocDate as 'Goods Issue Date'
    ,                    T0.DocNum as 'Goods Issue Reference'
    ,                    T1.ItemCode as 'Item Code'
    ,                    T1.Dscription as 'Item Description'
    ,                    T2.IntrSerial as 'Serial Number'
    ,                    T1.OcrCode as 'Cost Centre'
    ,                    T1.LineTotal as 'Total Cost'
    ,                    T1.U_eReasonCode as 'Reason Code'
    ,                    T0.Comments as 'Remarks'
    From
                        OIGE T0 JOIN IGE1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry

    Hi,
    You can go to Inventory >>> Inventory Report >>> Serial Number Transaction Report. There are a lot of criteria you can choose to generate your own report.
    In your case, choose Dates and Documents tab and then enter your criteria.
    Hope this helps,

  • Macbook Pro Battery Serial Number

    Recently I have given my Macbook pro to local apple service center as it suddenly turned off & never got started, I was informed by service center that it has some problem in its logic board so I need to replace it. but my Macbook is out of warranty period.. so they have quoted me Rs:39,000 for replacing the logic board.. that is simply out of question why would i spend 39,000 on the logic board, if I can buy Ipad even with the lesser price and it seems much more easy to use for me. so I've got my macbook back without rectifying it.
    However last night I observed that its battery has come out from one side and was not flush with the rest of the casing. So i popped it open using the latch and tried to see if i could close it properly.
    It seems like the battery has sort of expanded on one side, to the point where it's pushing up against the access panel and not letting it close completely.
    I never gave my machine to service center like that, battery was exact fine, I am quite sure that battery is not of my macbook, it has been replaced with crashed battery while it was in the service center (as my macbook was in the service center for more then one month).
    So i am looking for the way to find out if this battery is for my macbook or not. the problem is I don't even have its box or receipt which could include its configuration details and since my macbook has logic board problem so I am not even able to switch it on to check..
    If some one can please tell me that serial number which is given on the Macbook Battery is the same as actual Macbook serial number which i can see in Battery bay; I can see both serial no's differs.
    i am not sure if batteries have its different serial numbers from the machine serial numbers? if some can tell me this so that I can go back to service center with the concern or if battery serial no is suppose to be different then please suggest me how can i go about notifying same to service center, I mean if they would deny and won't accept; either battery has been changed or damage to the battery has been caused by them; then i would have no proof to prove this.
    Please suggest??

    Your battery's serial number was never the same as your MBP's serial number, and there is no way for you to tell whether another battery was substituted for yours in the shop unless you have a record of the original battery's number. Your MBP's original purchase receipt and packaging would not have included the serial numbers of components and subassemblies like the battery — only the whole computer's serial number.
    Batteries sometimes swell abruptly as they approach the ends of their useful lives, and it's entirely possible that your battery did so while it was in the shop for a month. Now you will need a new battery as well as a new logic board if you want to continue using the computer. But because you aren't willing to pay the cost of a logic board replacement, the battery doesn't matter.
    If an iPad would meet your needs, buy it.

  • Monitor Serial Number Report

    Hi All,
    I was wondering if someone could tell me how to run a report that would give me my CPU Serial number and my monitor serial number together? Running ZCM 10.2.0
    Thanks for any help.

    Sure can, because I was asked to do this recently.
    Create a new report looking at hardware components, monitor
    Then select the fields:
    Machine Name
    System Manufacturer
    System Product
    Serial Number (Device)
    Last Scan Date
    Product Manufacturer
    Product Name
    Product Serial Number
    Diagonal Size
    Instances (Summary)
    This gives you the PC information (system) alongside the monitor information (product)
