Q: Where can I find my original serial number

Where can I find my original serial number? All I have is my upgrade number. Bought the original Aperture product in an Apple Store along with my iMac. It was pre-loaded.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4), External Hard Drives

    BAck in the day of hard media even when a program was preloaded on a computer bought from Apple the DVD's would be included and given to the customer. This was the only way to reload a program if the system failed. The serail number would have been included in the box.

     

    If you are certain you do not have the original DVD's then the only thing you can do is to contact Apple to get a replacement serial number.  See Pro Application Replacement Serial Numbers
