How to change your Serial Number?

We need to change the serial number on one of the computers to the new one we just bought, and even after uninstalling (manually), It keeps automatically putting the first serial number we bought in the new install. Is there an automatic uninstall, if there is I can't find it. I also tried trashing every thing in the Library that had Aperture in it including .plist file.

Steve, just for future reference... In order to do a full uninstall of any software, you not only need to remove the program and its folder, but you also need to do a search of the main drive for any files with the program's name in it. What you are particularly looking for are files in the library folder and preferences folder (plus any other folders they may exist in). I generally move these files off to an empty folder I created for this purpose (just in case). I delete these files later after I make sure everything is running OK.
Then, if you need to do a reinstall, you can do so without any of the left over baggage.

TS4268 How do change your phone number associated with iMessage on iPad?

when ipad was set up wrong phone number was entered for imessages and facetime. How do you edit or delete it and enter correct phone number?

I believe this would work except the phone number associated with ipad is not correct. If I follow these steps, the wrong phone number would be setup once again since the iphone's number used at the initial setup of the ipad is not the correct number.
Two different iphones:
Setup now: iphone B with ipad A
Need:iphone A with ipad A
Does this make sense?

How do I change the Serial Number in Logic Studio?

Hi All,
I used a friends copy of Logic Studio and the serial number to give Logic Studio a try, loved it, and bought it. However now I have my own serial number and would like to enter it into Logic. Logic, of course, has kept the first serial number and I can not work out how to change the serial number. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Power2004

Thanks John,
I have looked for the /Library/Application Support/ProApps folder and it does not seem to be on the HD. I also searched for the file to be trashed and could not find it. Could it be called something else in Logic Studio 8?
Cheers,

How do obtain my serial number for Acrobat XI Professional

Hello Jeff,
I have purchased a Student and Teacher Edition of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro
So I have serial number retrieval card.
I have been through the retrieval process, lodged the eligibility requirements and have an Adobe identity.
I now understand that I can download XIPro and use it while I wait for the processing of my information and receipt of permanent approval.
My computer has Windows 8.
I am ready to down load but nothing happens when I click on Acrobat XI Pro download.
Hope you can help Paul

Branching this to a separate discussion.
Moving this discussion to the Acrobat Installation & Update issues forum.

I am sorry but I am not familiar with a home use program. If you have questions regarding how to redeem your serial number then I would recommend reviewing Education FAQ.

How can you find your ipod without your serial number or iclould

how can you find your ipod without a serial number or a iclould?

- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order

Alos, the serial number will only help identify the iPod as yours if it is recovered.

HT2452 How to find the serial number of your Apple hardware product

How to find the serial number of your Apple hardware product

This works for any Mac provided that the logic board has not been replaced.
I recently had the logic board replaced in my iMac. After the tech left (on site repair thanks to Applecare), I went to about the Mac and found jibberish numbers. I called Apple and the AASP and found that he had forgotten to register the serial number. So he came back and, with a special tool (as he called it - looked a little like a USB stick) he contacted Apple and then entered my original serial number as I read it to him.
So, I assume they changed the process since I still have the same serial number as before.

How to know , when serial number in sales order is changed ?

Hi All,
I am changing Sales order line item serial number. So the equipment number and Serial number both are changed for that particular line item. But I am unable to know, what was the last Equipment number, and Last serial number for that material of sales order line item.
Can any one please help me, how to determine the details about the date and time of change of serial number of a particular sales order line item ?

I have already checked for VA02 -> Line item -> Environment ->changes. It show changes related to fields available in VA02.
But it is not showing changes related to Serial number change.
I have also checked with table CDHDR, CDPOS. But the data related to change in serial number of SO line item is not captured in those tables also.
Is there any other way to know?

How can i restrict the change of serial number in delivery document ?

how can i restrict the manual change of serial number in delivery document ?

I can tell you that you are observing standard program behavior.
By using a reference document for a return delivery, you are only
receiving proposal values for a new document. The posting will not
create a permanent link between the referred document and the return
delivery document.
Hence it is allowed to change various fields. This applies not only
to serial numbers, but to storage location, quantity and other fields.

IB:How to update a serial Number which has Inventory Material Transactions?

Dear friends
first of all thanks for your time and valuable solutions
Install base: How to update a serial Number which has Inventory Material Transactions
problem description:
Install base > quick search
Here is Installbase record, when I query from quick search
Rec#     Item          Item Instance           Serial Number          Status
1     300-7000-01      3000000           1000XXX-0538JQ0003 Return for Adv Exchange
2     300-7000-01     8000000               1000XXX-0538JQ0003-     Return for Adv Exchange
3     300-7000-01     5000000               1000XXX-0538JQ0003-A     Return for Adv Exchange
looking above data, first and third records are the legitimate serial numbers(correct according to the client specs), second record is not legitimate since it has a dash as suffix, we found there are many illegitimate serial Numbers exists, needs to be updated with the right serial Numbers which I analyzed in excel after pulling data from mtl_material_transactions , oe_order_lines_all , mtl_serial_numbers , mtl_system_items_b
basically these are all RMAs
I need to update the second record as 1094SUZ-0538JQ0003-B as per the guidelines, while updating I need to keep all the existing contracts, Warranty, what ever material transations it has, need to be same.
we have a package updating the serial numbers using IB API (csi_Item_Instance_Pub.update_item_instance) but it is updating only the records which has no serial numbers present for that instance, if there is a serial number already exists it is not working.
user define error msg "Serial Number 1094SUZ-0538JQ0003- has Inventory Material Transactions. This serial number cannot be used to update an existing Item Instance", but I need to update this anyway!! or am I missing something here, please advice me
below post looks like similar issue, talks about hard update, I have no clue, by doing that the updated serial number will have same transations, contracts, dates....attached to it like the previous serial number
IB UPDATE_ITEM_INSTANCE ERROR - doesn't allow ACTIVE_START_DATE to change
would be great If you guys help me out, really appreciated!!
unfortunately I couldn't find any solutoin in metalink for the existing serial number update

Used this. May not be perfect but should get you there. Only if the table is registered (all the seeded tables should be registered) this will work.
select distinct a.table_name,b.column_name from fnd_tables a, fnd_columns b
where a.table_id=b.table_id
and upper(b.column_name) like '%SERIAL%'
Also this is very old one but if you need history for this change add the history insert logic as well..
