HT3423 How do I find my original serial number if I bought my macbook with logic already installed?

I recently bought a new macbook. Previously I had been using my c.2008 macbook which I bought with Logic express installed. Since then I upgraded to Logic 9. I've restored my new macbook with my time machine. When I open logic it wants the serial number. I put in the upgrade number but it then asks for the original logic serial number. As I bought my mac with it already installed I don't know it. What can I do?

Apple does not pre-install Logic before delivery so either you purchased the laptop used from an individual or a store installed if for you. In either case, you should have received ALL the paperwork and install disks. The serial number for Express is in the paperwork. If you did not get that material, you were running a pirated copy.
If this does not describe your situation, you should call Apple Care and plead your case.

  • Where can I find my original serial number

    Where can I find my original serial number? All I have is my upgrade number. Bought the original Aperture product in an Apple Store along with my iMac. It was pre-loaded.

    BAck in the day of hard media even when a program was preloaded on a computer bought from Apple the DVD's would be included and given to the customer. This was the only way to reload a program if the system failed. The serail number would have been included in the box.
    If you are certain you do not have the original DVD's then the only thing you can do is to contact Apple to get a replacement serial number.  See Pro Application Replacement Serial Numbers

  • How can I find my PS5 serial number if I don't have access to the original box?

    How can I find my PS 5 serial number - in order to join CC. I'm moving house and my original box and disk are packed away somewhere.

    If you have registered your purchase with Adobe you should be able to find the information you seek by clicking on the red A logo at the top of this page, then clicking the My Adobe link and looking in the My Products section.

  • How do I find my Ipod Serial Number

    My Ipod was stolen on May 6th, 2011. I do not have my box that I have originally bought it in, but I need to know my serial number. How can I obtain it?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Tracking the device is unrelated to its serial #.
    You need to have enabled find myphone on it before it was lost/stolen, you can then track it using find my phone at:
    iCloud.com

  • 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. I have called Adobe Support and they kept on asking for the registered email address which I do not know. Phone support has referred me to this forum. Is there any way i can find out the acrobat Pro serial number on this computer?

    Hi bachus.d1,
    Please check the KB : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html
    Else you need to provide the registered email address or the Order number for us to track.

  • 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.
    Message was edited by: Garyb1978

    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.
