Where can I find my Macbook Pro Serial number if the device is on Find My but not on My Devices? My macbook pro was stolen yesterday, and I can open the Find My app and see it (it's not on right now, so there isn't a location, but I put for a notification once it goes back online). However, the device is NOT showing up in My Devices on my Apple Support! I was logged in when it was stolen, so they may have removed it? They also got my backup drives with hours of Polar Bear and wildlife video footage, code, and data, so this has been a devastating experience. I've looked everywhere, and the only place I can see the device is in Find My. How can I get the serial number so that I can report it to the police and the local pawn shops? Thank you!

Check the back of the box that the MacBook came in, if you still have it.

It will be listed on there.

Good luck!

Apple will be no help here.

The serial number would be on original paper work / original box it shipped in.
