Finding the Serial Number for AppleCare Protection Plan

I am trying to register my Laptop to the Protection Plan, but I can`t find the serial number. When I do, do I type everything? I thought I found it, but they say its not valid. Can someone please give me an example to me? Thank you very much!!

It is unlikely that the Serial appearing in System Preferences is wrong. Could I suggest you make absolutely certain that you are quoting it correctly.
Could I also suggest that you make the registration and buy the Apple Care by phone. You may have to actually transmit the money other than by quoting a card number. In any case you have a human to keep you right on the serial. The first step is to make sure that the serial is correct.
You can print out Sys Prefs. However it is a big file especially the section on the Applications and Extensions. I would suggest you display the first section with the serial> select the text>copy text to clipboard> paste into a fresh Text Edit document. You can then print that out to post to Apple if need be, send it by email or whatever.

    Where do I find the serial number for Logic I just bought

    If you purchased it from the Mac App Store, there is no serial number I'm aware of. It's tied to your Apple ID rather than having a serial number or other key code.

  • Where can I find the serial number for LOGIC PRO from the AppStore

    Please help me:
    Where can I find the serial number for LOGIC PRO from the AppStore?
    I bought and downloaded the application, now it asks me for the serial number but I didn't not receive it or can find it.

    My understanding is that if it was purchased throught the App Store, then there is no requirement for a serial number. At which point does it ask you for the serial?

    Are you a Creative Cloud subscriber?  No serial number is required if you're paying monthly.
    If not a Creative Cloud subscriber, please tell us which version of DW you downloaded and what your stumbling block is.

  • Trying to find the serial number for my InDesign

    Greetings all,
    I work in the art department of a printing company that has 11 artist on Macs using Adobe software. I'm currently reformatting some of the Macs we use to clear off old software. My problem is that I need to reinstall the same InDesign back onto the respective Mac, I have 11 copies of InDesign, and I'm not sure which one is on a particular Mac. As you can probably infer the organization of our software up to this point is not exactly well thought out.
    So, long story short, how do I locate the serial number for InDesign on the Mac? I know it used to show you a partial serial number in the opening splash page, and in Illustrator you can find it in the system info panel under the help menu. But, I just can't find it in InDesign.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    He's probably using CS3 which doesn't have an easy way to find out.

  • Where do I find the serial number for my macbook pro

    My computer told me I was infected with 6 bad viruses.  An apple mac protection package wants me to sign up to get rid of these viruses.  The mac protection package is asking me for a serial number for my mac. I give it the serial number listed in my apple information but it says it is the wrong serial number.  Where can I get the serial number so mac protection can clean up my macbook pro??????

    It sounds like what you're seeing is a malicious pop-up on the web. Do you have anti-virus software of some kind installed? If not, note that that's the only thing that can scan your computer for malware. A web site cannot do that, but it's trivial to display a pop-up in your web browser that looks very official, telling you viruses have been found and that you need to install their software to remove them. That's a classic malware trick... the software the pop-up wants you to install is the malware.
    Can you provide a screenshot of the window warning you that you have malware? Press command-shift-4, then the space bar, then click the window. The screenshot will be placed in a file on your desktop. Add it to a post here using the camera icon in the post editor's toolbar. (Don't drag it into the post or copy and paste it... that will appear to work for you, but we won't be able to see it.)
