Can't see serial number on 10.5

In the about this Mac, I used to be able to see the serial number for my MBP, but not anymore. I see "serial number#". I am pretty sure this is a coding error. Anyone else can confirm that?

Only an Apple Authorized Service Provider has access to this utility. It shouldn't hurt anything, but you'll have to contact AppleCare Support or the AASP that replaced your logic board to get the correct serial number back. I think it's just a coincidence you didn't notice until after installing Mac OS X 10.5.

  • Where can I locate serial number for my InDesign CS4 (Disks cannot be found)

    I have Adobe CS4 which was already installed on my PC when I
    joined the company 4 years ago.
    I now have a new PC but we couldn’t find the original discs
    to re-install so I need to buy a new version of Adobe InDesign. Apparently I
    can get a better price if I prove I’m upgrading. To do this I need my serial
    number. As I don’t have the discs I’ve been looking on the Adobe IndesignCS4
    application on my old computer but cannot see anywhere where it tells me what
    the serial number. Where can I find it?

    Apparently we can get the Complete CS (photoshop, indesign, acrobat pro, illustrator, etc.) for
    $29.99 with a valid CS3 or higher serial number....if not it's $49.99!
    I have an Adobe Account that I have bought items on, however InDesign was bought by someone before I joined. No idea of their account!
    Surely there must be some way to see serial number within the application? I tried running a script to find it that someone had posted but it didn't work (May only have been for a Mac).

  • I downloaded Adobe lightroom 4 and I cannot find the serial number. Does anybody know where I can find this serial number?

    Perhaps you should ACTUALLY READ THE LINK VARJAK POSTED!!!

       I also downloaded LR4. It was a paid app - $79.99. I wasn't assigned a serial number
    Correct.
    Mac app store software does not contain serial numbers since they are linked to your AppleID.
    which means I can't upgrade to LR5 through Adobe.
    Yes, you can.
    Purchase the upgrade.
    When when you run the LR5 installer it will see you have the Mac app store version and it will get a serial number from Adobe to use for LR5.
    Very helpful - if there were a serial number!!!!
    There will be a serial number WHEN YOU RUN THE INSTALLER!
    It will get one from Adobe.
    You're welcome!

  • Stolen ipod, unregistered, can I get serial number

    I had 2 ipods stolen from my car. I did not register them but I have recently synced them with my itunes. Is there anyone I can find the serial number?

    If one of the Nanos was the last device that you connected to and synced with your iTunes library, there is a chance you might be able to get the serial # to show up in the Device Connectivity diagnostic report. See here for instructions on running this test.
    iTunes for Windows: Device Connectivity Tests
    If you have previously registered the device with Apple, you can view it's serial # in your list of devices you have registered under your Apple ID.

    See here: iPod: How to find the serial number
    If none of those help, I'm afraid you are out of luck.

  • Where can I get serial number for Lightroom to start using it?

    Hello. I have just created Adobe CC account and purchased a Photography membership plan for Individuals. The price is 9,99 per month and this sum has already been taken from my card. On this page (https://accounts.adobe.com/plans) I can see the confirmation that I have obtained this plan.
    Now I want to use Lightroom but it asks me for serial number. After reading some help I found that I should get serial number from here - https://www.adobe.com/account.html. But on this page it says that "You have no registered products.". So I see no serial number.
    So there's a simple question - where can I get serial number for Lightroom to start using it?

    Jeff, thanks for your answer but it doesn't help. I've successfully passed all checks on page Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CS5.5 and later . My internet connection is ok, hosts file ok, certificates ok, etc. It's not a source of the problem.
    I've found that on page Adobe ID it says that I have free membership. Somehow it turns that my purchased Photography membership plan is not there at all. in order to proof that I really purchased it please see screen from my internet-banking page below:
    Why it is displayed only free membership in my account page and not Photography subscription which was already paid?

  • Can i check serial number if i know imei ? or can i check serial number if i know imei ?

    Can i check serial number if i know imei ? or can i check serial number if i know imei ?
    Thanks all !

    If you are talking about an iPhone and you simply tap on settings/general/about
    Both IMEI and Serial numbers are there to see.
    You can use the *#06# short code on the phone keyboard to see IMEI as well
    Or connect your iphone to iTunes on a PC/Mac
    Click on the device in side bar and summary button at top left of browser window
    In the top panel you have :-
    Name of the device
    Capasity
    Build Version/Software version - Mouse click on it to change which is displayed
    Serial Number/UDID Identifyer - Mouse click on it to change which is displayed
    Phone number /IMEI -Mouse click on it to change which is displayed
    Its very easy to see both numbers if you actually have the device.

  • How canI get my serial number for Elements 11?

    How canI get my serial number for Elements 11?  Does anyone know how to help me.  I did puchase it sometime ago but lost all computer data and had to replace computer.  Hope someone can help.
    Thanks
    Steve

    If you have no record of it at your end, the only place you might find it is at Adobe's end via logging into your Adobe account and seeing if it is listed there.  If you registered the software it should be.
    Beyond that your only hope might be to have Adobe support check your information to see if the software/serial number is available and if it can be given to you.  Try contacting them by chat or telephone.
    Here is a link to a page with options to help make contact:

    Thank you.

    Do your other devices use the same appleid as your macbook?
    Just asking cos they may log you in automatically and you may not be seeing the correct info.
    Apart from that, sorry I don't know.  I guess you'll have to contact Apple and get it from them.
    Did you sign up for apple care?  The emails regarding that will have the serial number listed.

  • Where can i find serial number of i phone 5s?

    I don't have original box and the phone won't turn on.I didn't find it either in back of the phone,all i can see is imei,Ic and fcc id.Any help,thanks.

    If you have your iPhone backed up in iTunes, you can get the serial number from there.
    Open iTunes on your computer.  Go to iTunes > Preferences (on a Mac) or File > Preferences (on a PC).  Click the "Devices" tab.  Hover your cursor over the iPhone backup row and you can see the serial number there.

    Dear Brian,
    I activated my product in August of 2014.  I had it a few months, October, when my computer crashed.  Therefore I had to go back to Adobe tell them what happened, and then until December I had noticed that it said that I had a trial copy.  I was not worried, as I had the serial number.  it was working, but in January I got a message that my "trial" copy had expired. 
    At that time I had contacted Adobe and was told that because it was beyond the 3 months, they would no longer help me.
    Therefore, at one point, when the computer crashed, I had not deactivated the program.  But Adobe had gotten it working for me again. 
    I do not know what happened between October and December to have changed the software from a real copy to a trial copy.
    Now to your patient questions.
    As you wrote, that is what happens to the point of getting the trial copy, but when I follow the process through, I get a message that my "trial copy has expired".    When I go the the editor, the whole process loops again, sign in, trial copy, licence page, add serial number, then the message that the trial has expired.
    When I got that message the first few times months ago, I went back to the Adobe web site and downloaded another copy.  (I have done this numerous times)  It still said that I had a trial copy and that it had expired, there is a box to licence this software, when I click that, I have to sign in again, This time I also had gone to the Adobe web site signed in and left it open, while I put in the serial number, hoping that would help (have also tried that before).  It waits and then the Editor/Organized box comes up again.  When I go to the Editor, it tells me that this is a trial copy which has expired and it starts all over again.
    I was so frustrated, that I waited a couple of months to try it again.   The thinking was that there was some glitch that would work it self out and I could again  down load a clean copy of the original, not a trial.  (I do not know how I keep getting a trial copy of PSE 12, as it is not even offered on the site.)
    The crazy thing is this morning when I turned on my computer, I had an update for the Adobe PSE 12 and Camera Raw.  Probably because I had downloaded a copy again. 
    When I go the the web site to down load a copy of the PSE !2, I am doing it from the My accounts/ products page and downloads.  I have left the web page open to copy the serial number from that page, although it always matches my notes. 
    ThanksT
