The serial number is registered to another person!

Hello.
Please tell me what should I do?
I bought the phone in the store. I use it for almost a year. I wanted to make it to the list of their devices, but the identifier writes that the serial number is registered to another person!
How to fix it?

What store did you buy it in? A carrier or Apple or another third party store? I ask because many times some stores sell iPhones as though they are new but referbished or even used...meaning it would have been originally registered to the first buyer... and thus the warranty will also not be full or even expired!

  • I purchased a used Macbook Pro and the serial number is registered to another user.

    How can I register this computer under my name?

    That is not correct as far as the Applecare extended warranty. It has to be transfered.

  • My serial number is registered to another Apple ID

    my serial number is registered to another Apple ID, my iphone is new i tried to register my iphone serial number to my id but i got this massege....(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?)

    Hi MOIA323,
    Registration of your iPhone is not actually necessary since the service and support is actually linked to the serial number of the iPhone, not to you. See this article -
    Do I need to register my Apple product?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5803
    If you feel you need to do so, however, you should contact Apple for assistance. Use the methods shown on this page -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • According to our records, this serial number is registered to another Apple ID.

    I bought an iMac from an ARC thrift store that had been donated.  When I try to register the iMac to my AppleID to see if there's any Applecare left I get the message "According to our records, this serial number is registered to another Apple ID." 
    So how does one register/re-register a device that someone else no longer owns?

    You will need to contact Apple by phone and get your issue resolved.

  • Adding IOS Device on My Support, serial number is registered to another Apple ID

    I bought a second iPhone and it is unlocked and i can upgrade IOS. iCloud is connected. How can i add this iPhone to My Support. I get this Message:
    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 had the same issue.  The phone is still registered to the previous owner under his/her Apple ID account at "https://supportprofile.apple.com/"  Your will need to contact him/her to get it un-registered.
    Hope this helps. 

  • Where is the serial number to Register Lightroom 3 upgrade? Numbers on the case don't work.

    Where is the serial number to register Lightroom 3.5?  Numbers on the case don't work.  Please respond to [email protected]

    Check the sleeve the CD/DVD came in for the SN, I never had a problem. When I purchased the LR3 upgrade from LR2 I chose a hard copy not a download. On the CD sleeve was the SN, and after installing and opening for the first time LR3 prompted for the new SN (not the same as the LR2 SN). As I recall, this was the process. Install, open, enter the SN. This resulted in 2 versions of LR available to me; LR2 and LR3. I found the process painless and fast. Subsequently I downloaded updates to  LR3.

  • Today is last day of my lightroom trial and i dont want to lose book i am working on so i bought the photoshop/lightroom monthly package for 9.99.  Where do i find the serial number to register lightroom?

    today is last day of my lightroom trial and i dont want to lose book i am working on so i bought the photoshop/lightroom monthly package for 9.99.  Where do i find the serial number to register lightroom?

    There is no serial number for the CC version of LR.
    You should uninstall the trial which is asking for a serial number – your catalog and images won’t be affected.
    Then Quit the CC Desktop application, using Gear / Quit or right-click / Quit
    Then restart the CC Desktop application.
    Now you should have LR listed in the CC Desktop apps list with an Install button.

  • I paid for the monthly plan but I did not receive the serial number to register the software.

    I paid for the monthly plan but I did not receive the serial number to register the software.

    there is no serial number used with a cc subscription.  you use your adobe id.
    go here, Adobe: Creative, marketing, and document management solutions
    sign in with the same adobe id used to subscribe.  start the download of one of your programs.
    that will install the cc desktop app which is used to manage your cc apps,

  • Where to find the serial number to register??

    I'm trying to register my SmartBand Talk, but I cannot find the serial number. I've checked the back of the main core unit but none of the numbers are S/N. I've tried all the numbers anyway, but none of them were recognized. I checked the SmartBand Talk app, under About, but there was no Serial number there either. Can someone please advise? Thanks!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    It is on the back under a strap, The one next to the volume buttons so un click the retaining plug and remove the strap then you'll see the S/N

  • If I want to register my iPad 4 at Apple Support Profile and enter the serial number, it says that  this serial number is registered to another Apple ID.

    I only have one Apple ID for my iPhone and my iPad and the iPad is definetly new.
    What can I do?

    It may look new but it's possible that someone have used it before. You may want to take this issue up with the shop that you bought from.

  • How can Icheck which Apple IDs my serial number are registered to?

    My iPod Touch model A1367 was recntly stolen. I came to iTunes to see if could ever see who has been recently using my device so that I may track it down. I went to My Support Profile > Register & Add Products and typed in my iPod Touch's serial number, but apparently this message comes out "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". I was wonderinng if I could see all the Apple IDs that have been used on my iPod. So can I... somehow?

    There is nothing you can do. Apple will not help. Just report it to the po\lice and change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod.

  • HT1267 someone has found my lost Ipad3 and changed he name.  How do i find the serial number?

    I left my Ipad (3 the new one) on an airplane a couple weeks ago.  How do I remotely find the serial number to register it as lost?  Can the person who picked it up access it even though I've remotely locked it?

    No, they cannot access the data on your iPad, though they can wipe it, which would also wipe the passcode.
    The iPad should be registered to you, so go to http://supportprofile.apple.com and that will tell you the serial number.
