How do I get information on a mac laptop based on the serial number?

I am looking at some on line public surplus auctions for macbooks. Some Pro some iBook etc. They don't give you much information about the item other than what it is (no tech specs) and some photos of the actual item. How can I get information based on the serial number?

This web page will help. Enter the last three digits of the serial number in the empty field:

  • How can I find MAC address based on the serial number of a missing IpodTouch 4th Gen?

    My Ipod touch 4th Generation is lost.  If I can find the MAC address, the Univeristy can help locate the device.  I have the serial number, is there any way I can find the MAC address based on the serial number?  I did not install a third party app on the IPod to help find it and it is not registered on iCloud, but I used it on iCloud.  Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

    Did you turn on FindMyiPd is Settings>iCloud and is the iPod connected to wifi? That is all that is needed for for Apple FindMyiPhone
    Maybe Apple can find the MAC address

  • I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?

    I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?

    I am talking about the Ver 3 download link that came with the purchase email.
    That link is no longer available. Use "Migration Assistant" to copy your Applications from your old mac to the new Mac, then immediately run software update. Aperture Version 3.2 will not run on your new mac with Mavericks, you will have to Upgrade to version 3.4.5 at least - you can download this update from the Support page: Aperture 3.4.5
    Then launch Aperture and enter your registration key and try now too update from version 3.4.5 to 3.5 from the AppStore. The AppStore will change your Aperture registration to an AppStore version, so you will able to reinstall by downloading from the AppSTore in future.
    If you want transfer only Aperture and no other applications, do it manually: You will have to copy not only the application but folders from the libraries as well:
    /Applications/Aperture.app
    /Library/Application Support/Aperture/
    ~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/

  • So I had photshop cs5 installed on my pc...i had to get my hard drive replaced! I have the serial number and everything, but I need to know how to download it. I really don't wanna have to pay for the program over again.

    If you registered your product, you should be able to find the download and serial number from your Adobe account.
    https://www.adobe.com/account.html
    Otherwise:
    Download Adobe CS5.5 Trials: Direct Links (no Assistant or Manager) | ProDesignTools
    You might still have to contact Customer Support to reset your Activations, unless you managed to deactivate the original installation.

  • HT1349 i have a PC, not a Mac. Where is the serial number?

    Wanting to transfer itunes library from old computer to new one. Support says to leave my phone # but asks for the serial number from my hardware. Instructions are given as to locating the serial number on Apple products but i have a PC, not a Mac. Where is the serial number? Or, how do i transfer library?

    You don't have one that's applicable.
    You may not get support on free software anyway.
    Also, please check you are posting in the iTunes section, not XServe.

  • Creative Suite 6 Design Standard (for Mac) keeps asking for the Serial Number ... over and over!

    My iMac has a well-installed Creative Suite 6 Design Standard. I have a valid serial (purchased it) and it works fine. Every couple of months though the Adobe Application Manager pops up and asks me wether I want to continue the test-period or if I am willing to enter the serial number. So I dig into my papers and get the serial number out ... it is accepted every time and works fine then. But after some time - there we go again: I have to enter the number.
    I faced this issue a while ago and read that it was recommended to update the Application Manger - which I did. But ... still being bothered by these kinds of questions from time to time.
    What can I do?

  • HT1689 How do I find a lost or stolen ipod touch with the Serial Number

    How do I find my ipod touch? Lost or stolen, not sure.

    The serial number will do nothing to help you locate it.
    IF you set up find my ipod on the ipod BEFORE it was lost AND it is on AND it is connected to wi-fi AND it has not been found and restored, then you may be able to get an approximate street address using icloud.
    Otherwise, you cannot track it.

  • How can i found my ipod in my house i know the serial number though

    im so sorry to bother but i lost my ipod in my house and i know the serial number but how can i find it i dont have icloud sorry and thank you so much:)

    The SN will not help at all.  If wifi is on then call it with FaceTime, Skype, Messages or other app that uses a notification sound and listen.  That is the only way.  You can also just look for it the old fashioned way.

  • How do I try to track my 8GB ipod touch with the serial number if i dont have the actual ipod with me because its lost?

    I need answers on how to find or track my 8GB Ipod Touch.  The only thing i have is my phone and the computer to track it down somehow.  I have the serial number and I just need help trying to locate it somehow.

    You can't track it with the serial number.  If you had an iPod Touch running iOS 5 later AND set up Find my IPod on it, then there is a chance you might be able to locate it by going to www.icloud.com, logging in with your Apple ID and clicking Find my IPod.  Of course, the iPod still needs to be on and connected to a Wi-Fi network in order for it to be located.
    If nothing else, report it to the police and change any and all passwords to any accounts you set up or used on the iPod.
    Apple otherwise cannot help you.
