OSX and Machine Serial Numbers

Hello all,
Just a quick question regarding OSX.
Since OS disks that come with a new computer only work on that machine, does changing a logic board render those OS disks useless or are they still usuable? Would I be better off getting a new set of the latest OS disks from Apple?
This is for a dual 2.0 G5 with OS 10.3.7 on the install disks.
Thanks.

No, the IP address can be set to any valid address the user wants. It would change the MAC address of the adapter, but that's generally not important, unless your network uses MAC address filtering for access control.

IMB Mailpiece and Tray serial numbers on endorsement line?

Hello,
To make work less painful for our Operations when switching to USPS Full Service Option, we are considering making the IMB mailpiece and Tray serial numbers visible to the line operator in human readable format. We hope to achieve this by putting these numbers (output from Presort) in the first few characters of the Optional Endorsement Line (OEL).
- Is this a good approach? If so, would it be possible to configure Presort to pre-fix the stated serial numbers into the OEL? We hope to avoid any custom code development for this.
- If it is not a good approach, what alternatives should we consider? (I read about an optional 'Mailer's Keyline' on the USPS web-site. (http://pe.usps.com/cpim/ftp/manuals/qsg300/q708.pdf) Can this be used? If so, is some Presort configuration possible to generate the desired human-readable serial numbers in one of the Presort outputs?
Your thoughts and suggestions would be most appreciated.
Vishak

Vishak,
I have been told by our postal reps that we cannot place additional information in the optional endorsement line. The only thing we have used on the same line as the OEL is the ACS participation code - I have provided an example below. Not all jobs will have ACS information though. However, I have encountered conflicting information from different postal sources in the past.

I agree with Kendra. I believe your best bet is to use the container, package and pallet codes. We use them on every mailing. These codes will allow your line workers to sort the mail pieces at the end of the line with ease and efficiency. I have listed an example of what and where they look like. "C" for container or tray, "P" for package and "S" for skid or pallet.

OS Reinstall and lost serial numbers

Hi, I reinstalled Leopard 10.5 + updates, to correct nagging issues, using the "Archive & Install" method. All worked fine and life is back to normal.
Couple of questions:
- The system created a mammoth "Previous System" folder (14 gb). Is it wise to get rid of this folder since it's taking up storage in my tiny macbook?
- Alhtough most 3rd party apps working fine, including Office 2004, the system asking for serial numbers of Final Cut Express and LiveType? Where do I find these in my Mac (traveling and don't carry original package)..?

If everything is working OK, you can delete the Archive (Previous System Folder), but I suggest backing it up with TM when you get a chance first, just in case. One never knows.
Regarding those pesky keys that some SW vendors require, the reason you need to put them in is because the software "thinks" you have installed it on another machine. I had that issue with my Macromedia Dreamweaver.
I don't know if the keys are stored on the computer unencrypted, but they are usually only accessible when the software is running (Catch 22) and not otherwise.
I think you are out of luck until you get back or call home and have someone locate them.
I always save them in an unencrypted text folder with some innocuous name or on one of my FlashDrives just in case.
You might be able to call the SW vendors and explain your situation. I am sure they have records and can help if they want to.

Lightroom and PS serial numbers

I just bought a new laptop. I want to download lightroom and photoshop. All I have records of is the upgrade serial numbers. No record of the original serial numbers. How can I download, or how can I find the original serial numbers? HELP!!

Do you have the products registered with Adobe? If so you will find the numbers under your Adobe ID.
If not they should be on your old computer anyway, where will depend on the OS, etc.

Newest MBPs and their serial numbers

Hello,
I was wondering what the serial numbers for the newest MBP are right now. I just got a MBP, and before I open the box, I'd like to know if it is one of the newer units.
thanks much

The serial number is printed on the outside of the Apple packaging. I recieved a W8617 (week 17) at the end of April.

Need a way to inventory Mac programs and corresponding serial numbers

My boss is a Windows guy & doesn't know what he's doing. Therefore, he insists there's a way out there to inventory all of our office's Macs & generate a list of programs and corresponding serial #s. Is this possible? How?
In his perfect Microsoft world, this would create an Excel sheet.

If you've purchased and configured Apple Remote Desktop, then use the Application Usage Report feature -- gives a list of apps and how frequently they are used (in case you want to reigh in licenses).
A cheap alternative, of course, is to create an admin account on each machine and use 'ssh' to run system_profiler on each machine. e.g. 'system_profiler -detailLevel full SPApplicationsDataType'. You get responses like this (you can request an XML format too):

Why need the Lr and Ps serial numbers when the Br not needs?

I bought today CC for photographers (LR, PS, Br). The Br runs fine. But the other two programs want serial numbers. Why?

Cloud programs do not use serial numbers... you log in to your paid Cloud account to download & install & activate... you MAY need to log out of the Cloud and restart your computer and log back in to the Cloud for things to work

Hello Experts,
We are running a stock count and we have come to the stage where we run LI21 to clear differences. However, I cannot do it because I get the error message "Maintian serial numbers for the total quantity".
The materials that give this message have a serial number profile that requires serial number at the point og GR and GI.
I am not able to find a way to enter serial numbers in LI21.
Any suggestions on how to complete my stock count?

How come my new group CC 2014 subscription opens up the old Application Manager and wants serial numbers?

I'm signed up for a group CC account (just switched from a month-by-month) but when I try to launch a program it opens up the old Adobe Application Manager and asks for a serial number or start trial. Does anyone know what I need to do to get the access I'm supposed to be? Thanks

The email ID here in forum has one CC registered to it which has expired, there is no other CC, of you trying to launch the CC with this Email ID then it will ask for serial number.
Since you have CC for Team to this same Email ID, you need to log out & log back in of the Cc desktop app to activate the CC for Team though the activation server shows that the CC for Teams have been activated once on September 25th 2014.

Generate and read serial numbers...

Hi all
I'm trying to produce a system where we lock a projector's
usage down to an individual. I'm intending to use the individual's
email address, combined with their hard disk serial number and
encoded to produce a serial number which can be quickly checked at
run time. The serial number would be generated at our end
(possibly) and emailed to the user.
Has anyone got any hints on how to do this easily, before I
get bogged down in trying to create my own algorithms and such?
I would be happy to use a 3rd party extra...
Thanks
Flea

How to deactivate serial numbers PEPE10

I Restored my computer to its factory defaults. when reinstalling PEPE10, Accidentally installed disc 1, I should have installed disc 2 for windows 7 x64bit.The uninstaller tells me to deactivate and remove serial numbers used when installing on my machine. Question is how do I do that? Please help.

Well to deactivate, you just need to launch Editor. Go to Help menu, and click on Deactivate button.
Deactivation is for the purpose that you can use your license on 2 computers, and remove the license from the ones you don't use right now. So you should always deactivate you PEPE version before formatting your machine.
