IWork asking for my serial number after migration

Question

I have recentlly migrated to a new MBP. I had bought previous versions of iWork, but I decided against having iWork preinstalled this time when buying the MBP.
Today I start up Keynote for the first time after the Migration. I realize that, even though I used the MIgration Assistant, my computer does not understand that I actually have bought these versions of iWork; iWork asks me to enter the serial number, or else to use it as a "trial version" for 30 days. I am now using it as a trial version, since I cannot retrieve the original serial number. Is there any way to retrieve the serial number (I am now on travels and there's no way for me to find the original DVD sleeves, provided I have those), or to fix this issue and let my computer know that, yes, I did pay for this copy of iWork already?
Thanks.

Answer 1

If you bought the inBox version, there is a registration code printed on a small eight pages booklet.
If you bought a registration code, it was your duty to store it in a safe location.
In this case, you may ask Apple for a replicate of your code. You will be asked for an identifier. I hope that the # of the new machine will be OK but I'm afraid that you will be asked for the # of the old one.
If your are back home in less than 30 days, you will be able to retrieve your DVD or your registration code and everything will be OK.
At this time, there is no problem, the trial version behaves exactly like the registred version. And of course, it may be updated to revision 0.2.
