Find my pre-iCloud Macbook Pro?

Hello everyone,
I was wondering if it's possible for the new iCloud's feature to input my stolen Macbook Pro's Serial Number and to locate it.
I would really love it. My Mac was on 10.6 when it got stolen.
Thanks for the help!

Not likely.  However, if you reported your machine that was stolen to the police, and called AppleCare to inform them it was stolen, that's all you can do right now.  In the future, always add Lapcop or Lojack so you can track your machines.

    How do I put a shortcut "Find iPhone" icon on Macbook Pro desktop?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Apple hasn't released a “Find my iPhone” app for OS X. However, you can access to Find my iPhone on the Mac in http://www.icloud.com, logging in with your Apple ID and choosing Fund my iPhone.
    After doing this on your Internet browser, look at the URL bar. At the left of the URL bar, you will see the website icon, so drag it to your desktop to create a shortcut to access to Find my iPhone

  • How do I use my serial number to find information about my MacBook Pro's Processor and RAM?

    So I want to find information about my MacBook Pro's processor and RAM using the serial number because the MacBook no longer works. I remember being able to find this information on the apple website before, maybe by using the coverage checker. Did they take this information out of the coverage checker? Is it no longer possible for a costumer to obtain this information?

    Append the last three characters of it to http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords= and load the page.
    This won't reveal how much RAM it currently has installed.

    I can't find iDvD on my Macbook Pro...running OSX Lion...how can I get it?

    IDVD is sold separately.  (There are no realistic alternatives to iDVD.)
    You'll find it on the iLife 11 disc. Once installed Apple's website will update it to the latest version automatically.

  • Find my Mac says MacBook Pro does not have WiFi?

    Hello everybody, having a bit of an annoying problem at the moment so I hope you can all help. I'm trying to set up find my mac via iCloud but can't seem to get it working. I've enabled Find My Mac under my iCoud settings on my mac but even after enabling it i get an error that says: "This Mac can't be located because it does not have Wi-Fi. You can still lock or wipe this Mac." Anybody have any idea how to fix this? My MacBook Pro obviously does have Wi-Fi and is connected to a Wi-Fi Network so I don't see how this error even rmeotely makes sense.

    Found the answer https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4144799?start=0&tstart=0
    System Pref > Date & Time > Time one > check box for set time zone automatically..
    Enabling that worked for me.
    Thanks to https://discussions.apple.com/people/macenrich
    and...
    Mine was checked so I unchecked it and re-checked it and now find my iPhone works....l weird!

  • Migration Assistant can't find External HD on MacBook Pro Mid-2012

    Hi, I have a MacBook Pro Mid-2012 running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and I am trying to use Migration Assistant to transfer Time Machine backups that are on my external hard drive, that I backed up from my old MacBook Mid-2010. The problem I am having is that Migration Assistant can't find my external hard drive. My MacBook Pro can find it when I plug it in (I see it in Finder), but Migration Assistant can't. Can anyone help or should I go to the Apple Store?  I need help with this problem as soon as possible.
    Thanks in advance,
    - Daniel 

    Since no one replied I figured out how to do it myself.
    1.) First I plugged in my external hard drive with my Time Machine backups on them, then I opened Finder and click on my external hard drive under devices.
    2.) Next I clicked on and opened the folder named "Backups.backupdb"
    3.) Once inside that folder I could see folders with the backups from Time Machine and all of the folders names were the date I backed up that backup. I clicked and opended the lastest backup folder.
    4.) Inside that folder, I clicked and opened the folder named "Macintosh HD"
    5.) Inside that folder, I clicked and opended the folder named "Users"
    6.) Inside that folder, I clicked and opended the folder named "Daniel" which was my Username on my previous Mac.
    7.) Finally I could see and access all my folders from my Time Machine backups from my previous Mac.
    Keep in mind this is only helpful if you are trying to access old backups (backed up from another Mac) on a new or different Mac. (Sorry for the blurry images)
    Hope this somehow helps someone else,

  • How do I find activities folder on MacBook Pro?

  • Where can I find a new 2008 Macbook Pro Battery?

    I hav had this laptop computer since 2008 and just recently discovered that the battery in the bottom is morphed/melted from too much heat. I read online and they said that this is normal and that i just have to buy a new one. Well, I have searched and I can not seem to find one. Where can i get one of these batteries?

    Bulging is not normal, but the Apple Stores are getting hard-nosed about replacing a swollen battery out of warranty.
    Apple still sells batteries for all MBPs but they are more expensive. If you do "About this Mac" from your Apple menu and, in the resulting window, click on "More Info..." that will bring up System Profiler showing the exact version of the MacBook Pro you have. The screen will look like this (note I fuzzed out the serial number--don't post serial #s here):
    The second line in Hardware overview--Model Identifier--tells us exactly your variant so we can decide the battery that you need. For some MBPs, the 15" and the 17" version use different batteries. If you post the model Identifier and your screen size, we can point to to a specific battery.
    Personally. I am somewhat reluctant to recommend eBay or similar sites. There are a number of reports here of auction site batteries sold as "new" arriving with 20-40 cycles on them. That's not "new." There are also some counterfeit batteries, branded Apple, but are inferior.
    I know the batteries that Apple sells are not great (my MBP from Late 2007 is on its second bad Sony battery), but third-party batteries seem worse based on posts here. You need to be careful if you go outside the Apple product line. If a responder here says they found a great third-party battery that lasted a long time, consider that but only from the same vendor the happy camper used. Ask  for a link that's not ebay.

  • How to find system discs for Macbook Pro

    I seem to have misplaced my Macbook Pro 3,1 system discs. I think I may have left them in the box, then got rid of the box. Is there anyway I can get another copy of the discs, or download them from the Apple site?
    The Machine came with 10.4.8 I have a Tiger Retail disc, but it only seems to work on PPC machines. I need to reinstall the system software, as when the machine starts up it keeps saying some system files are missing and need to be re-installed.
    Any help will be much appreciated

    You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.
    If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those -

  • ICloud MacBook Pro compatibility

    I can not open Pages/Numbers documents stored on iCloud or save documents to my iCloud account on my 17" MacBook Pro running Mavericks and the latest version of Numbers/Pages.  I have no problem on my iMac and iOS devices.  Any suggestions?  I can get to iCloud through the internet icloud.com.  I have done all the usual things like reboot, zap the pRam, delete iCloud account in System Preferences and then sign in again

    I found this solution for syncing iCal on another thread:
    Pass this to all.  icloud  and ical works with snow lepoard.
    Go to iCal preferences.
    Set up new account.

  • Pre-ordering Macbook Pro with Norwegian keyboard for US pickup - possible??

    If I pre-order/pre-pay a new Macbook Pro (Retina) for pickup in the US, is it possible to get it fitted with a norwegian keyboard? When buying online I only see the options for English, Spanish and French keyboards.

    Well, there not really any way I can in direct contact with them without calling them, which is not an option for me where I'm currently based. The potential pick-up stores themselves do not have emails listed on their page either..
    Is there any official helpline from apple which is email-based??
