Q: Where do I find my serial number?

I just had my computer fixed and now when I open FCE, it is asking for my name, company, and serial number. I bought the program 4 years ago and no longer have any packaging or other records of the serial number.  What do I do?

Final Cut Express, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

    The serial number is usually on the booklet titled "Installing Your Software" that was included when you purchased the software.  If you didn't keep that, contact Apple with proof-of-purchase and hope they provide you a new serial number.  It's a good idea to keep important documents such as that, along with the title to your car, the deed to your house and other such things - don't throw them away.
