Mac serial number location

If you're looking to find the serial number of your MacBook, MacBook Air or MacBook Pro, there are a few easy methods you can try. The first place to check is the bottom of the machine, where you'll typically find a set of regulatory markings that include the serial number.

On most current and recent MacBooks, the serial number is located on the underside of the laptop, near the "Designed by Apple in California" text. However, the location of your serial number may vary depending on the model of your device. For example, if you have a MacBook Mini or a Mac Pro, you'll need to check the bottom or back panel respectively.

Another way to find your serial number is to use the "About This Mac" feature in macOS. To do this, click the Apple logo in the top left corner of your screen and select "About This Mac". From there, you can click on the "Serial Number" tab to view your device's serial number.

You can also check for your serial number by using the System Information app. To access this app, go to Spotlight search (Command + Space) and type in "System Information", then click on the "Hardware" section and select "Serial Number".

It's worth noting that you may not be able to see the serial number until you sign in to your Mac device. If you're unable to see the serial number before signing in, you can press Alt + V while booting up your Mac to view it.

In some cases, you may also find the serial number on a sticker underneath the device, or in documentation such as receipts, invoices, and product information sheets.

Overall, finding your Mac's serial number is a relatively simple process that can be done through a few different methods. By knowing where to look, you'll be able to easily locate your device's unique identifier.
