Q: My MacPro was stolen. How can I retrieve the serial number?
My 3.5 yr Macbook Pro was stolen and I didn't record the serial number. I need it for the police. Who can I contact at Apple to see if they have my number? I financed the computer through Apple.
Is there some kind of internal tracking device in the MacPro that can lead me (the police) to finding it? I did not install any tracking device on it, but didn't know if it came with one already built in- like the Iphones have.
Any help you can offer would be appreciated.
I'm Desperate and am sick that I didn't record it in advance.
Thanks for your help.
Sue

If you registered your computer with Apple & setup a support profile, you can login & retrieve your SN there. If you didn't do such, you can try calling AppleCare.
If you didn't setup Find My Mac or similar before your computer was stolen, there is no way to track it. Change all of your passwords, report the loss to the police & your insurance company.
