At our seminar this past Saturday, we talked about my blog series on keeping your laptop secure. (Delete Your Laptop?<\/a><\/strong> and Scrambled Eggs & Data<\/a><\/strong>) Since one of my suggestions is that you write down the model and serial numbers of your laptop and keep them in a secure place, people asked how they can find that information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On a iMac,<\/strong> it’s very easy to find the serial number. Just go to the apple in the upper left-hand corner and, from the drop-down menu, click “About This Mac.” On the window which pop-ups up, you’ll see the serial number listed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using the serial number listed on this Overview window, you can find the model number by visiting Apple’s “Check Your Service And Support” page found HERE<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On a Windows machine,<\/strong> there are a few more steps to finding the model and serial number but it’s not complicated. I’ve created a video showing the correct procedure. Although the video is about Windows 10, the same procedure will also work in Windows 8.1 and Windows 7. The video is only 2 1\/2 minutes long, so have a look and then try it on your computer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
