My macbook pro was stolen. How can I make sure that the one that is linked to find my mac is this one and not an older computer. Is there a way of seeing the serial number for the computer that is linked to find my mac?

My MacBook Pro was stolen less than a week ago, and I'm not sure if the hard drive was wiped, if it was wiped would I still be able to find it with the findiphone app?

My MacBook Pro was stolen less than a week ago, and I'm not sure if the hard drive was wiped, if it was wiped would I still be able to find it with the findiphone app? Or would it be untraceable after it was wiped? I had alot of special things on my laptop, and I would hate it if I didn't find it, so I'm hoping it wasn't wiped and I will be able to find it soon, HELP ME IF YOU CAN PLEASE! ANYTHING HELPS!

If that drive was erased, you should have received a confirmation email.

My MacBook Pro was stolen last night. I need the serial number. It is not showing up on my devices list. My iPads and iPhones are. I have used it to to sync my phones and pads as well having it registered with apple. Any thoughts? Thanks

SIgn in with your Apple ID, the same one you used to access this support forum.
Hopefully, you will see a list of all the devices you registered with your Apple ID, including their serial numbers. Let me know how this works out.
Edit to add: If you enabled "find my imac" on your Pro, you ought to be able to remotely lock it, or even wipe its memory. Click http://www.icloud.com/ sign in with your Apple ID and click the big green "find my iPhone" icon (nevermind the name, it will find all your devices provided they're running Lion or iOS 5).
Then file a police report and nail the b*****d.

My Macbook pro was stolen before I had time to register it and I want to inform apple

My MacBook pro was stolen two days after I purchased it. I did not register my product nor did I have time to set up any tracking software. I still have the box and the registration/Serial Number. How can I inform Apple in hopes that they can help me locate my MacBook?
Thanks -

Unfortunately Apple cannot help you track it.
You say "before I had time to set up tracking software", but a new Mac will specifically ask you, as you're first setting it up, if you want to activate iCloud and Find My Mac. If you answered "yes", you can go to http://icloud.com and track or lock it from there.

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

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.

My macbook pro got stolen, is there a way to track it down?

my macbook pro got stolen, is there a way to track it down?

Not if you had not already installed and configured software for tracing it. If you hadn't done that before it got stolen, your only option is to report it to the police and let them handle it.

My Macbook Pro was stolen, and I have replaced it with a Macbook Air. New hard drive is too small for a Time Machine restore. How do I restore my more-expensive apps (ie iWorks) on my new Macbook without repurchasing them?

My Macbook Pro was recently stolen, and I have replaced it with a Macbook Air. I attempted to simply do a restore from the Macbook Pro's Time Machine backup, but since the new Macbook Air's hard drive is significantly smaller, a Time Machine restore was not possible. I even tried to choose only settings or only my User Profile (option) when restoring, but the backup was still too large to do a restore onto the new machine. How do I restore my more-expensive apps (ie iWorks) onto my new Macbook without repurchasing them? Also, I reaad somewhere that if you went to the Mac App Store and attempted to repurchase the app and clicked BUY, it would simply alert you that you have already purchased the app (and trigger a re-download)... NOT THE CASE... So I just dropped another $19.99 for a second copy of Pages... Not my intention....
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

you should get a usb backup drive as well. time machine has limited use in my eyes. it saves things. but older things can be errased ad space drops without telling you
nothing beats data redundancy. 2 saves is. 1. and 1 is none
im personally not fond of time machne though i use it only for a recovery parameter for a mac
id never ever myself consider time machine a genuine data backup tool. though most do consider it as such
drive clones such as superduper and carbon copy cloner can clone your entire drive for emergency recovery. and you can boot from them as well o. another mac

Macbook Pro was stolen. I didnt set up icloud on it. I set up icloud onmy iphone afterwards to ensure future safety if it ever gets stolen. How come when I log onto icloud on another pc, the user pic is my picture from my macbook login screen?

Does this mean the scum who stole it couldn't get in and change it? Is this a good sign....will this provide any way to track it?

It's picked up the photo from your Address Book. Without Find My Mac enabled on the Mac before it was stolen there's no way to track it. You should change your Apple ID password to prevent access to iCloud though unless you'd password-protected the Mac you can't prevent him getting at the data in that; but most thieves will probably erase the disk anyway to make it look like a legitimate Mac.

If my macbook air was stolen in MEXICO can it still be traced? :(

I was visiting in Mexico last weekend and my Macbook air was stolen is there any hope i can trace it with the serial # or does that only work in the US?

you can't trace it with the serial in the US either. Believe me, if it was stolen in Mexico, it is loooong gone. Of course, if you had "find my mac" installed before it was stolen, their may be a small chance you could locate it.

HT204347 if my macbook pro was stolen, is there any way i can find it ?

i bought my pro two years ago, but it was stolen yesterday, is there any way I can find it ? please help. it hais important documents and pounds of memeries.

If you had iCloud enabled...
Go to www.icloud.com > iCloud
then login then click Find My iPhone (works for finding your Mac also)
This will only work if the Mac is turned on and Find My Mac was enabled in System Preferences > iCloud
If you did not sign up for iCloud before the Mac was stolen > Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
A stolen or lost device cannot be located from the serial number.

HT1349 My Macbook Pro was stolen and I need the serial number. How would I find this? I need it for the police report so if I could get answers soon that would be great, thanks :)

Consider using this site: http://www.stolenlostfound.org/
This is Apple's official word on the subject:
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
If you have lost or found an Apple product, please contact your local law enforcement agency to report it. Although Apple does not have a process to track or flag lost or stolen product, you can use My Support Profile to find a list of serial numbers for items purchased or registered with your Apple ID.
