I Have No Serial number

hello, i am a newbi with macs, and i was trying to install my apple care when it asked for my serial number. i read the little form, and i went to my apples info. the serial number read blank. i started to get worried, so i went to trouble shooting. they said to double click the version thingy on the first part of "about this mac." i did, nothing showed up. please help me if you can.

ds store: You mentioned outgoing packets when you start iPhoto. I just watched it, and it makes a TCP connection to configuration.apple.com. That's probably the automatic check for a new iPhoto version, which I had enabled.
Yea it does that and something else, if you have BigTop installed from the Developers Tools and set to watch the outgoing packet sizes, everytime you launch iPhoto there's all these outgoing packets...
I found out what it was, it's calling the mDNSResponder process which
The multicast DNS (a component of Bonjour/Rendezvous) responder; this advertises network services (such as AFP file sharing) provided by this computer, as well as the computer's self-chosen ".local" name.
Note: this runs under the pseudo-user "nobody" (presumably for security reasons).
(so thats who nobody is. )

Oh great, just broadcasts my computer name (which often has your real name when you set up Mac OS X) out in the clear whenever I take a look at iPhoto, wonderful.
So since I don't use Bonjour/Rendezvous, I told Little Snitch to block any connection using this process.
I've deleted all my Little Snitch rules, including the default ones, and now carefully only allow certain processes or applications access and then for only as long as I'm using them.
I'm experimenting with LS to see if it gives 100% complete network blockage, I had it run all night last night and found one packet leaves the machine every 4 hours or so, apparantly it's the lookupd process, which will be denied tonight.
The way I'm going, if I catch anything it can't get out or phone home unless it breaks root.
There are some other juicy things I'm finding out. Address book, the Dock, iDVD making outgoing network connections. you can read this thread

i have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number. also, when i click buy, i get an error message saying, "application not found."

There are two different LR’s, one with a serial-number licensing and one with a CC-signin license.
You should uninstall the serial-number LR you have installed, then
Quit the CC Desktop application,
Restart the CC Desktop application—this will rescan what you have installed and not see LR,
LR will now be on the CC Desktiop apps list, so install that.

I am unable to reinstall Photoshop CS6 (I do have the serial number) on my Macbook Pro 10.9.5 (Mavericks os). and am getting the message "Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported. Please choose a different volume for installation." I am further told that "Adobe apps cannot be installed on case-sensitive drives, you need to Install the product onto an HFS+ or HFSJ non-case-sensitive drive."
What I don't understand is this: I originally bought and installed Photoshop CS6 back in March 2013, and it worked fine. Yesterday my hard drive had to be replaced and my computer person salvaged as much of what was on it as he could, but now I have to reinstall Photoshop. 1) Why did it work before and it's not working now? 2) Is there anything I can do that does not involve reformatting the hard drive?

It means what it says. The "computer person" formatted it wrongly/ unsuitably. it needs to be formatted again.

I am trying to install Photoshop 12 on a Macbook Air and only have the serial number

I cannot find a phone number for customer service and am very frustrated. I left the product at home and do not have it with me. MacBook Air doesn't have a CD drive. I do have the serial number.

You can download from here

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/

Got a new laptop and don't have my original Adboe disk. I do have my serial number for Acrobat 9 standard. How do I download it onto my new laptop, please?

Hello Ive gotten a new laptop. I cannot find my Adobe Acrobat 9 disk as it's still packed and in storage from moving residences.
I have my Adobe Acrobat 9 serial number. How can I download it now for my new laptop, please?
Thank you. Andrea

Thank you, Anubha, for your reply. I will search for the disk as soon as
I'm able to go to another state where my storage unit is located, however
right now, I have a serial number for my Adobe 9 - it is:
1016-1934-5048-3315-8945-0131 according to my account on the Adobe website.
I do have, with me, an Adobe 8 disk - however, at some point, I must have
upgraded to Adobe Acrobat 9 - because that is the serial number in my Adobe
account. So, do I have Adobe 9 via an upgrade download link sent to me by
Adobe? I believe that is the case, but cannot find the record of that in
my Adobe account.
Can you please let me know if you show an upgrade to 9 in my account on
your end? If not, can you tell me what an upgrade would cost from Adobe
Acrobat 8, to Adobe Acrobat 10?
Thank you....

Is there any way to locate a stolen ipad if I have the Serial number but didn't turn on the Find My Ipad?

My Ipad (and backpack, laptop, & other stuff) was stolen at the Portland Oregon Airport at 1:30 PM on 2/27/12.
unfortunately I had not turned on the Find My Ipad function. I do have the serial number and the IMEI number (although I never enabled the 3g function).
Is there any way to locate or track this?
Earlier discussions suggest this can't be done, but I have registred the laptop with Apple.

No.
Apple are not in the business of tracing your stolen iPad, any more than the manufacturer of your car will trace that if stolen.
Tell your service provider (now, before the thief spends a few thousand on international calls....), the police and your insurer.

I have been using a Lightroom 5 including recent upgrades on my Mac Pro laptop for the past 1 year. This was purchased as an upgrade from Lightroom 4 for which I have a serial number. Today I purchased a new Macbook pro and loaded my Lightroom 5 however it is asking for my serial number which I have misplaced. I am unable to trace my serial number anywhere. I have even checked my adobe membership to locate my serial number but it does not seem to have any record which is strange as I have been using this software for over a year now and the previous versions since 2009. Could someone help me in my predicament.

I had my iphone stolen and it was a brand new replacement so i dont have the serial number. Can apple provide me with the serial number? since it should be on their records

so my iphone 5 kept crashing and i brought it to the apple store and got a new replacement phone. Unfortunately for me the next day it got stolen, i have the find my iphone app but it says my device is offline so i cant track it nor can i wipe the contents. I have blocked my sim, but someone told me that i could get the product itself blocked so that the horrible theif cannot use it at all. Since it was a replacement product and i lieterally just got it i dont have the serial or imei number to get it blocked. Would apple have a record of the replacement devices number? i tried using the online chat but it wont work becausae i dont have the serial number or anything. thanks in advance for your help.

nobody can track anything using a serial number really
IMEI number carrier can track a device with but only way to do it is when the police bring a warrent
find my iphone service which have to be activated before the device was stolen is what normal people can do

I lost my ipod touch 4th generation. I don't have Find My iPhone enabled on it, but I have the serial number. How can I find it?

I bought it this year in February. I think I know where it is, but just to be safe... I'm going nuts trying to find it...
I have the serial number, and Find My iPhone is on it, but I guess it's not enabled because it's not showing up on my iPhone. I tried doing the Find My iPhone online, but it's only locating my iPhone, which I have. It's the iPod I'm missing.
Question is, can I find my iPod with just a serial number??

Did you pass code locked it? If Find My iPhone is configured, you can do a remote wipe. Any way, go to the police and make a report, change your password in iTunes Store, really sorry, that's not much you could do. Is it authorize? If so you can deauthorize in iTunes when you select iTunes Sore under STORE (left panel) and click your Apple ID (top right)

I cannot use my Acrobat XI downloaded with my one year subscription. It tells me my trial has expired and i need to license it. but I have no serial number.

Rave,
I have the same problem. It says trial is expired, so I select the "sign in now" button. After sign in, it comes up with a place to enter a serial number. The only two other options are "back" and "next".
