If you didn't write it down the first time it will almost next to impossible to find it also this doesn't gurantee in any way you can get your laptop back either. MAC is only good if you wrote it down or registered it but if none of this is written down. And if you don't have tracking software installed the chances of getting it back is harder to get it back. So unless you see it being sold by someone or online this is the only real way you can track it down.

How to get MAC Address of a stolen laptop by using Serial number?
Hi my Lenovo G560 laptop was stolen on 17/04/13. I have the serial number. In order to trace the laptop, I need the MAC address. Unfortunately I don't know the MAC address of my stolen laptop. My question is, is it possible to get the MAC address by using serial number?
Serial Number: xxxxxxxxxx
Moderator Note; s/n edited for member's own protectionhi Subrahmanya,
Sorry to hear about your trouble. Unfortunately, the only way to get the MAC address is to run a query on the unit (physically or or remotely). Using the serial number to query information on the system will list the devices that are included on the unit (this doesn't include the MAC address).
Regards,
neokenchi

How to get MAC address using java code
hi friends
please write me, How can I get MAC Address of local machine using java code.I don't want to use JNI.
Please reply me. Its urgent for me
Thanks in advance
USYou have several ways under *nix
ifconfig -a | grep HWwill output something like
eth0 Lien encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:FF:74:FF:B4combined with Runtime.getRuntime().exec("")and Process.getInputStream()you should be able to read it easilly.
Under Windows (and Linux of course) try jpcap (http://sourceforge.net/projects/jpcap)
You can also use jnative as a generic tool (http://sourceforge.net/projects/jnative)

How to get Mac Address of Remote Computer
Hi All,
I tried to find out a solution for finding Mac Address of a remote system, then first i tried with finding it with local address using the following code it works fine for me.
public class MacAddressFinder {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try
InetAddress ipAddr = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
System.out.println("Current IP address : " + ipAddr.getHostAddress());
NetworkInterface nwIntf;
try
nwIntf = NetworkInterface.getByInetAddress(ipAddr);
byte[] hwAddr = nwIntf.getHardwareAddress();
System.out.print("Current MAC address : ");
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for (int i = 0; i < hwAddr.length; i++)
sb.append(String.format("%02X%s", hwAddr, (i < hwAddr.length - 1) ? "-" : ""));
System.out.println(sb);
} catch (SocketException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
catch (UnknownHostException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
But when i tried this piece of code in jsp with the following code i am getting NeworkInterface object value as null and there by i am unable to get the Mac Address of a remote computer.
InetAddress ipAddr = InetAddress.getByName(request.getRemoteAddr());
NetworkInterface nwIntf = NetworkInterface.getByInetAddress(ipAddr);Can you please suggest me how to find out the Mac address of remote system?
Thanks,
Udayfirst of all, NetworkInterface only exposes the NetworkInterfaces of the local computer. secondly, you cannot find the mac address of an arbitrary remote computer. that information is not available outside of the local subnet. and java doesn't expose a way to discover it even for computers on the local subnet.

How to get MAC address from client machine ?
Hi dear,
We are implementing security measures for a banking system, so it is required that we track the MAC address of the registered clients along with other parameters. How do we get the MAC address from client machine using ADF or running scripts in client side?
thanks allHi,
Welcome to OTN.
Your question has nothing to do with ADF as such. Googling would give you plenty of such topics.

How to get MAC address of a phone
Hi,
I am able to retrieve phone details by sending Soap request to RisPort. But the response doesn't have MAC address of the phone. Can any one please let me know how to get this information.
Here is my Soap request

I have used NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces() for get list of interfaces
but under xp I not read interface informations.
Is possible that the problem is permission level of user?
Thanks.Some call in Java are OS dependent and work better on some OS than other. If there is a permissions issue it is at the OS level and Java would not be aware of it. (But I doubt this is the case)
It is possible that information is not available under windows.
However you can call "ipconfig /all" and parse the MAC address from that. -
How to get MAC address list and HDD serial number from Windows and MAC machine?
Hi,
I'm developing a AIR application. I'm implementing the product key mechanishm. I need to identify the users' machines uniquely. I chose MAC address would be a better way. But a computer has list of MAC addresses including LAN card and Wi-Fi card addresses. So, I need to get the list of available MAC addresses from the computer and the Hard Disk Drive's serial number. HDD serial number would be helpful to cross verify the identity.
I'm able to get the MAC address using NetworkInfo class. But I need to get a list of available MAC addresses and HDD serial number.
Is there any classess to accomplish this task?
Thanks in advance.See if this link can be of a little use to you.

How to get MAC ADDRESS in mais.asc using FMS

THXIt's also available in System Information, under the Network section.
Hold down option and select System Information from the Apple menu.
Select Network, then the particular service type: Airport, Ethernet, Firewire
Scroll down till you see MAC Address:
You can also reveal it in the Terminal with ifconfig. en0 is usually ethernet, en1 is Airport, but that depends on your configuration. -

Get mac address in a container or zone non-global
I am developing an aplication in c/c++ and in global machine I can get mac address, but in zone non-global don't.
I have to get the mac address in zone non-global? If so, how?

I have to get the mac address in zone non-global? If so, how?A non-global zone using a shared-ip stack doesn't have rights to network connection. So you can't easily query the network device directly.
You can probably run 'arp -a' in the zone and look for your zone's hostname. That's pretty close.

how to find mac address of a client computer in specified time and port in WIFI WCS Control system
WCS record-keeping is very crude.
You'll get the time/date when the client authenticated. You'll get the local inside address but you'll need the router to translate the outside IP address and the port.
You will need a proxy server to determine what sites did a wireless client goes.
