How can I find out the serial number for my FCE 4.0 that came with my old MacBook Pro?

When I try and open my old FCE projects on my new MacBook Pro, a dialog box pops up and asks me to input the serial number for my Final Cut Express program. The software came pre-loaded on my old MacBook Pro which died. Luckily, my local Apple store was able to transfer the fcp files to my new MacBook Pro, which came with FCP X installed. I just can't open those files without the serial number of the FCE 4.0 program.

It is almost impossible to transfer FCE as there are so many essential hidden files that workers in an Apple Store will know nothing about. The app needs to be installed from the original DVD.
Other than buying another copy your only chance (very remote) is to contact the Apple Store and see if they are able to get a replacement number from Apple.

HT1529 My MacBook air was stolen and I do not have the receipt for the mac anymore, but I think I know who has taken it. How could I find out the serial number for my computer if I do not have the box anymore nor the receipt?

Is it possible to find it out any other way as well?

Although for iPad, some of these links may be helpful.

I havev installed a new Hard Drive on my laptop but cannot find my Photoshop Elements product box with the serial number to install Elements 10 or Elememts Premier 10. How can I find out the serial / installation codes for these? I saw a reply however, it was not my name and assumed it was for someone else. Now timed out. Can UI still have help on this matter please?

If you registered PSE before, go to the main page of adobe.com, sign in and go to your account and you should find the serial number there in your purchases.

How can I find out the apn number of the battery without having it?

I dont have the battery of my iphone 5 anymore but how can i find out the apn number of the battery? I would like to change it but i need to know the apn number to choose the right battery.

Apple does not provide any user-serviceable parts (other than accessories or sometimes a SIM card tray).
Therefore, there are no legitimate iPhone batteries available for sale anywhere.
Anything you find will either be salvaged, counterfeit, or stolen.

How do I find out the serial number of my stolen iPod Touch?

I went on a skiing trip to Boston a few weeks ago (I'm from the UK, hehehe) and on the last day my iPod Touch, along with 4 others in my year, went missing from all of our hotel rooms. Me and my friends thought it was a bit of a coincidence that we were all in the youngest year group but we were sure that our iPods had been stolen when a completely wiped out (resetted/restored) iPod had been found in one of the rooms that didn't belong to any of us as it didn't match the size (8GB ect). The Police were involved at some point as well but I don't really know what happened after that;S Anyway... I need the serial number to claim for the insurance. I appreciate any help:)

Sorry to hear about such behavior in our country and that it was aimed at visitors.
Did you register the iPod with Apple when you purchased/activated it? If so, Apple will have the serial number in the system. They may not be willing to release that information to you without really solid proof that you are who you say you are. But they will with the police.
Try:

and see if someone on there can point you in the right direction to get the serial number.

How do i find out a serial number for acrobat Pro on a computer?

One of our staff has left the company and I want to transfer the license over to another computer.

How do I find out the ID number for a Podcast?

I want to link to a few different podcasts in itunes from my website . I have seen links that include a podcast ID number, such as ...viewPodcast?id=xxx, but I can not see where to find the ID number of the podcasts I want to link to.
Has any done this before?
Thanks

right click (control click on a one button mouse) on the podcast and you will see "Copy iTunes Music Store URL"
you can edit the URL so it is short, e.g.
http://itunes.com/podcast?id=78511357&s=143441

How can I find out the server port for a secured FTP site and creating a FTP Connection Manager

I have to create a FTP Task to go out and get the files that our 3rd party vendor will be dropping on a secured FTP site. I have all the credentials to access that Secured FTP Site and have successfully done so through FileZilla.
Now I need to set-up a FTP Task to go out and get their files and in so doing create a FTP Connection Manager. Is there any way I can determine the
Server Port number from the Secured FTP site? I let it default to 21 and tried the Test Connect and it failed.
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Hi ITBobbyP,
SSIS has a built in FTP task, while this only works for the FTP protocol, it doesn’t support SFTP. But there are some free clients like WinSCP and
SSIS SFTP Task Control Flow Component
available in the CodePlex which can invoked from SSIS.
References:
SSIS SFTP Task Control Flow Component approach
WinSCP approach
Thanks,

How do I find out the base dir for the current workspace ? Change?

Assume I took over a colleagues JDeveloper installation.
How can I find out the base dir for his JDevelopers workspace?
Can I change this workspace base dir afterwards/later (without
problems for the included sources and projects) ?
Where can I change it ?
I did not found an option in the settings?

If you hover your mouse over the workspace you'll see the directory where the jws file is stored.
For each project in the workspace you can go to the project properties and look up information in the content node of the preference - there you can also change the location preferences for where code is created.
