Serial Number of my Macbook Pro is registered to another Apple ID

Hi everyone!
I tryed to register my Macbook Pro in my support profile and found out that:
"According to our records, this serial number is registered to another Apple ID. If you have more than one Apple ID, log in to My Support Profile with that Apple ID to see your other registered products. Not sure if you have another Apple ID? Find out."
I don't have any other Apple ID for sure. I've bought my macbook in used condition through some not official organization, that sells used computers. And there is no way to find out former owner.
What shall i do?

I found the answer in other discussions, sorry for interrupting

    how do i find out my serial number if my macbook pro was stolen?

    If you registered it, go to http://supportprofile.apple.com and sign in with your Apple ID. It should also be on the box it came in if you still have it.

    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.

  • How to get the Serial Number my stolen MacBook Pro ?

    Hi Everyone,
    Please Help !!
    My MacBook Pro was stolen yesterday and it contains a lot of personal & professional data.
    I reported to the Police & they asked me to provide them with it's serial number. Unfortuantelly i don't have any paper that has it's serial number !!!
    My MacBook is registered with Apple. Is there a way to get it's serial number if i have the userName and password of it's registration ?
    Can anyone advice how to get it's serial number other than the usual way ?
    Thanks a lot in advance,
    Best regards

    I'm sorry
    You can try calling Apple but I don't think they will give out serial numbers for products, even if you claim to be the owner of them. There's just no way to verify over the phone that you are the original, rightful owner. But you can always try
    Also, Do you have credit card receipts from the time you purchased the MacBook? If so, go to the retailer and see if they can produce the receipt of purchase. This should have a serial number on it, or at least a reference.
    Good luck!

  • Where do I find the serial number for my macbook pro

    My computer told me I was infected with 6 bad viruses.  An apple mac protection package wants me to sign up to get rid of these viruses.  The mac protection package is asking me for a serial number for my mac. I give it the serial number listed in my apple information but it says it is the wrong serial number.  Where can I get the serial number so mac protection can clean up my macbook pro??????

    It sounds like what you're seeing is a malicious pop-up on the web. Do you have anti-virus software of some kind installed? If not, note that that's the only thing that can scan your computer for malware. A web site cannot do that, but it's trivial to display a pop-up in your web browser that looks very official, telling you viruses have been found and that you need to install their software to remove them. That's a classic malware trick... the software the pop-up wants you to install is the malware.
    Can you provide a screenshot of the window warning you that you have malware? Press command-shift-4, then the space bar, then click the window. The screenshot will be placed in a file on your desktop. Add it to a post here using the camera icon in the post editor's toolbar. (Don't drag it into the post or copy and paste it... that will appear to work for you, but we won't be able to see it.)

  • Photoshop elements 10 won't accept my serial number on mavericks macbook pro just purchased

    I just got a new macbook pro and tried to put my old photoshop elements10 on it. I used the student/teacher serial number sent to me by adobe when I purchased that. It installed ok and seems to run all the tutorials but when I try to actually edit it demands my serial number which does not fit in the slots and then says its not good. Since I can't seem to find an adobe contact, I wonder if any Mac users have figured this out.
    Mahalo,

    Like the more expensive big brother Photoshop, PS Elements must be deactivated on an older computer before you erase the drive, or uninstall the app. You can use the serial number twice, but if you forget to do the deactivation, Adobe's servers are still counting that install against you. So if you've already installed it twice along the way, that would be one reason you can't use the number again. See here for some possible help.

  • Website couldnt recognize my serial number for my macbook pro retina

    Warranty coverage website couldnt recognize my serial number. i just bought my macbook pro retina two days ago...
    i wonder why the serial is not valid and i double check with the box and as shown in my device.

    Hi HoffmanPirate,
    There is the remote possibility that you don't have your browser cookies enabled.
    Have you TRIPLE-checked your serial # using the "About This Mac" application/ click on "More Info", then looked under "Hardware Overview:" for Serial Number (system): _______________?
    Otherwise, I'm sorry, but you will have to either contact Apple Support here > http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
    or call the Apple Store where you purchased it (if you bought it at an Apple Store).
    Best Regards

  • Is it true that it is unsafe to give out the serial number of a macbook pro?

    I'm looking to buy a Macbook Pro from someone who has listed theirs in a local ad. I asked for the serial number and he said that is unsafe to give that out. He gave me an expiry daate instead (July 11, 2013).
    Is this true?

    I consider it incumbent upon the seller to prove that it is his to sell. Acceptable proof might be an original invoice or bill of sale, AppleCare agreement, original packaging, or some combination of these. Certainly he paid for it somehow, and even if he did not retain the orginal sales invoice it should be easy for him to retrieve a credit card statement or the like.
    By providing the serial number at least he is at least making a good faith effort toward selling it. A seller should expend effort in assuring the buyer, not the other way around.
    The most important thing for you is to assure yourself you are not buying stolen goods.

  • CS6 Serial number on new MacBook Pro

    It will not take the serial number and puts me in a 30 day trial ?

    Does it give you a message that the serial number is invalid?  Are you able to register the serial number successfully at http://www.adobe.com/?  Which operating system are you using?  Finally do you have any other Adobe software installed on your computer?

  • Where can i find the TRACKING NUMBER on my macbook pro?

    before i bought my mbp, i was told that i should write down its tracking number in case it got stolen. where do i find it?

    Hi there - are you sure they (whoever that is) asked you to keep track of the Tracking number? Do you think they meant the Serial Number?
    You can find the serial number of your MBP by clicking on the apple icon at the top of your menu bar, and go to About this Mac, then you can click on more information, which will give you the serial number of your macbook pro.
    PS - in terms of safeguards for stolen macs, you might want to do a search on the forum discussion related to this issue (stolen or lost) . . .

  • How to find serial number without using macbook?

    What can be used to find serial number of my macbook outside of using my macbook?
    My computer was stolen and I do not have the box nor do I have it registered in iCloud, I know that iTunes holds my computer as an authorized user for my ID so I am sure somewhere it hold the serial number to identify that computer.
    I just need to know how to access that information so I may register it in my name so I can have Apple help me track it.

    You store purchase receipt, the box it came in, where you wrote that information down.
