How to Get Your MacBook Pro Mid 2012 Serial Number

Are you having trouble finding your MacBook Pro mid 2012 serial number? If so, don't worry! There are a few methods you can use to retrieve this information from the comfort of your own home.

Firstly, you may want to try using the 'About This Mac' approach. Simply click on the Apple menu and select 'About This Mac'. From here, you will be able to view your serial number along with other hardware details about your MacBook Pro.

Alternatively, you can use the System Profiler application to retrieve your serial number. To do this, simply open up the Terminal app and type in the following command: `$ system_profiler | grep 'Serial Number (system)'`. This will bring up a list of results that include your serial number.

On older versions of Mac OS X, including Snow Leopard, Mt Lion, Lion, and before, you can use the following command to retrieve your serial number: `$ system_profiler |grep 'IOPlatformSerialNumber'`. The results for this string will look something like the following:

`IOPlatformSerialNumber = C241BABDLLRP8`

On modern versions of MacOS like Mojave, High Sierra, and Sierra, or newer, you can use the following command to retrieve your serial number: `$ system_profiler |grep 'Serial Number (system)'`. Be sure to enter this command on a single line, as usual with command line syntax.

To try these commands out for yourself, simply open up the Terminal app and enter the appropriate command string below at the Terminal. Depending on the version of Mac OS X in use on your MacBook Pro, you will see different results.

Important Information

It's worth noting that Apple has certain policies regarding repairs for older devices. If your MacBook Pro is considered 'vintage' (which means it's over 5 years old), Apple will not attempt to fix it and will instead ask you to take it to a third-party repair service. If your device is considered 'out of warranty', you will have to pay for the cost of repairs unless Apple has issued a repair program for that model and issue. Finally, if your device is still under warranty, you may be eligible for free repairs.

By following these simple steps, you should be able to retrieve your MacBook Pro mid 2012 serial number easily. Happy computing!
