If i restored my iphone from being disabled will the serial number change?

I restored my iphone from being disabled. I did not check my serial so im not sure if that happens?

No, the serial number and the IMEI number do not change, they are burned into the firmware and are permanent.

No.
Contact yoru carrier. They may be able to blacklist it.

Hello! I am attempting to register a product, my iPad, to my adobe products with its serial number and I am being told that the serial number is invalid. I am certain that the serial number is correct, and am unsure how to proceed.

apart from the fact there's no way I could have answered your question confidently, I was also not able to supply my non-answer within your very tight time constraints.
what happened? how'd you get on?

I previously had PS CS5 Trial installed but removed it using both Control Panel Programs and deleting all files from the CS5 directory on Program Files. I then installed a purchased product from Adobe disc using the serial number on the case. But when I try to launch it, I get a screen headed Photoshop CS5 Extended Trial. It asks for the serial number and says that my trial has expired. It rejects the serial number from the Adobe case saying "This Serial Number is not valid for this product". It thinks that I still have the expired Trial Version installed. How do I convince it (the program) that the Trial Version is long gone and the currently installed product was installed with a valid and accepted serial number????

Let me know how it goes. Go into your Adobe account and register your serial number asap.

That way, should you lose it or you need support, it is on record that it's yours and you can fetch your s/n it from anywhere.
There are too may sad stories here, where people forgot and the box is buried or lost.

TS3376 If you had not registered your device on the find my IPhone app, but you know the serial number of that device, could you still be able to track your device

If you had not registered your device on the find my IPhone app, but you know the serial number of that device, could you still be able to track your device

No, you can only potentially track it if you have Find My iPhone enabled on it, you can't do it via the serial number.
If this isn't hypothetical, then if your iPad has been stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc. and contact your carrier.

I just upgraded to 9.1.4, and am being asked for the serial number from my packaging, which unfortunately is 1000 miles away at the moment. Any way I can get it from Apple or something? Thanks.

Just upgraded to 9.1.4, now being asked for a serial number from my packaging, which is 1000 miles away at the moment. Any way out of this? Thanks.

Add me to the list. This is a nuisance.
Fortunately, if i click on cancel, Logic will start the next time i run it without asking me. (But it asks again the third time i run it, and so forth - really strange!)

If you did not activate Find my iPhone then you've truly lost it. Unless, of course, you or someone else finds it? There is no way using the serial number and before you ask the IMEI number.

Hi, i have lost my iphone and do not have the serial number and IMEI number with me.

I tried the edit > peference > mobile tab, but it only record my handphone number used.
The support store does not reach Singapore.. What do i do?

The serial number wouldn't have helped you anyway. The only way to locate a lost device is if you enabled Find my iPhone.

HT4061 someone stole my iphone and i dont have the serial number. how can i find my iPhone?

someone stole my iphone and i don't know how to use the find my iphone app. i don't have the serial number. can somone tell me how to find my iphone?

Having a serial number won't help you track it.
If you set up and activate find my iphone on your iphone, then go to icloud.com and sign in to track your phone.
That is the only way to track your phone.
contact your cellphone provider and local authority.

What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen

If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device.

You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. I'll request that Apple move your post.

HT1349 I lost my Iphone 3GS and I have the serial number for my phone, Can I lock the phone?

I lost my 3GS phone couple day ago, however someone tell me I can lock the phone in case if my information leak out.

Sorry, serial number is useful for police record but not for finding your iPhone.
If you have Find My iPhone configured, you can send a message, lock yor iPhone, wipe your info and even locate it using iCloud services but since you didn't, your chances are zero.
What you can do is call your cell provider to block the number so you won't end up with a huge bill. Change all your passwords that you used on the iPhone. Report lost to the police.

If I restore my iphone from back up will I lose my current data?

I backed my phonne up to itunes and I would like to restore that data (since then somethings that were backed up have been deleted) but those are the things I would like to retreive I just don't want to lose things that haven't been backed up if that makes any sense?

Yes, if you restore a backup then you will lose your current data. You can choose one or the other ...
Unless somehow you have the old data you want as well as the new data on your computer or somewhere else (not in your iPhone backup).
