I threw out my box for my MacBook and it won’t turn on how do I find the serial number?

..phynix226:

Sometimes, in a decade down the road, the Box is almost as valued

as the Mac that had been contained inside there; you never know.

To identify most/all present Mac portables; those likely may still work,

involves looking into each series by name(s) 'MacBook.' [/Pro, /Air; etc.]

• Identify your MacBook Pro model - Apple Support

These usually cover newer models; where applicable; & back 2008 or '09.

Other good resources for identifying Apple/Mac may be found

Good luck & happy trails!🌻🐢

well, look on the back, newer MacBooks might not have serial numbers on the back, so if you can't find it on the back, um, i don't know then.

There have been 14 different MacBook models, so the first thing you need to do is identify your MacBook's model.
