Reveals serial numbers for your iTunes devices Here are the differences between the two program versions (from their website): Features The pro version can be downloaded for free as well so you can see what more it will find, but it will block the displayed values until paid for.

You can save this list to a file in multiple formats (HTML, XML, CSV, PDF or text files) which can be saved or printed out for later use.

This tool scans your Mac for installed applications and shows you the product keys, info, and serial numbers associated with many of those applications.

This program will list many installed product keys, allowing you to make a backup, or just recover them for future use. So now what? And if I am updating to a new machine, how would I get my existing apps registered on the new machine if I no longer have the license codes?īefore you need those serial numbers again, it is time to get Mac Product Key Finder,  a freeware program with a “pro” upgrade available at a modest fee.

No problem, I had a time machine backup, so this should be easy, right? Â Besides taking a long time to recover, there was one small issue that cropped up several times after the recovery: Launching apps that no longer seemed to be registered. Recently, my MacBook Pro SSD drive died so I had to install a new one.
