Question:Q:Lost Serial Number for Final Cut Studio/Pro

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Question:Q:
I've been using my Final Cut Pro 5 for a while now, and recently about 2 months ago. It was working great and everything was fine. However, since then I've taken my computer in to get updated with 10.5 and to get the firewire input fixed.
Now, I was loading up Final Cut and it asks for my Serial Number.
I've torn the house apart and am unable to find it, or my "proof of purchase".
I've talked to apple support and just don't know what to do...
I have everything except the serial number.
Box, all the user manuals, all the CD's for studio including Motion and such.
sigh now what?

Then you will have to keep searching. If an Archive and Install had taken place, that folder would have contained your encrypted serial # from the older Mac OS.

If you call Apple with proof of purchase and explain your situation they might be prepared to issue a new serial #.

Oct 27, 2008 2:17 PM in response to Commander Scooby In response to Commander Scooby

Your serial number is encoded in this file:
/Library/Application Support/ProApps/Final Cut Pro System ID

If you can't find that file in your backups, the procedure for serial number
replacement is described here:

Good luck!

There's a chance that the upgrade was done as an "Archive & Install".
Look at the top level of your hard drive. Do you see a folder named "Previous System"?

Well I opened my System ID file and it's just a big mess of numbers and code.
Not sure what in this could possibly be my Serial #.

And I don't have proof of purchase...

Just move the Final Cut Studio System ID file to Hard Drive / Library / Application Support / ProApps.

You will then be able to install FCS and it will not ask for a serial #.

There's no need to fiddle around with the file in a text editor. The number is encrypted in any case.

That's where the file is.
It's there, and Final Cut is installed, and has always worked, until now it randomly asks for a serial number.

What you should have done is move the System ID file from your backup to the boot drive, into the location I posted above, before reinstalling Final Cut Studio.

Look at the creation date of the System ID file, that is currently on the boot drive.

Compare them. You need the older one on your boot drive.

I have final cut studio on my G5 but I just got a new laptop and I have all of my boxes and disc but no serial number. I put the system ID like you said onto my laptop but when I try to install the software it still ask for the serial number. How do I install?

The two serial number stickers were originally affixed to the front of the booklet entitled "Installing Your Software" that was included with the package.

If you do actually have all the manuals and other papers that were included, it should be there.

I'm not the original poster, but I'm trying to get Final Cut Studio 5 from my old Powerbook onto my new one.

No "Installing Your Software" booklet exists in my manual set. I've looked through all the books, all the packaging...can the serial number be found anywhere else?

I did try moving the file with the embedded serial number, but that didn't work. I assume it's keyed to the hardware.

Any suggestions are welcome...

Please don't take this the wrong way but we see this topic so often around here that it defies credibility. Consider this from a professional's point of view: Someone spent $1,200 or more on this huge software tool. To believe that same someone did not carefully retain, preserve, or make copies of all serial numbers and receipts for such a large purchase is just weird. Think very carefully about how you got FCP and who paid the price. Certainly somebody in that chain had the clarity of mind to store the documentation!

You must find your serial number. If you do not have it, you will need to contact Apple and provide proof of purchase to a skeptical customer service person who has no authority to believe you. If you do not have documentation to support your purchase, you will be buying another copy.

Think very carefully about what it means that you keep seeing this topic around here.

Those two little stickers appear in the wrong place. The documentation says the serial number is to be found "on the packaging." Hence, the person who paid the price (me) retained the packaging.

Clarity of mind is not to be found in a new father of twins, which is what I was when I bought FCS 5. I got my project finished and into festivals despite odds you probably wouldn't understand. Now that the twins are older, I'm picking up the pieces of my former abilities and pressing forward again.

Hi Note On

I just pulled out my FCP 5 pack and yes, the serial no. stickers are on the front of the thin "Installing Your Software" booklet. Same with FCP 6 (FCS2). As far as I can recall, which goes back 8 years to FCP 2, that's where it's always been placed. The stickers aren't anywhere else unless — when you installed the program on your old Powerbook — you pasted a sticker on the install disk or maybe on one of the FCP manuals.

Final Cut Express 4

This page is a wiki. Please login or create an account to begin editing.


Final Cut Express, using the same code base as Final Cut Pro, offered pro-level editing for people who had hit iMovie HD’s ceiling and wanted more editing control and options.

The release of Final Cut Express 4 redefines that tiered structure. The line between iMovie — in this case, the completely revamped iMovie ’08 — and Final Cut Express is now a little blurry, making the latter not just a replacement step-up, but an accessory that can make up for iMovie ‘08’s shortcomings.

Question:Q:
Hi-

I am thinking of finally getting a Mac Pro, which will require upgrading Final Cut Studio and all that fun stuff.

In looking for my original FCS DVDs, I realize they were lost in a move last year. I can't find the install DVDs, the booklet or the serial numbers!!!

What info can I get off of my hard drive to be able to install FCS 3 on a new computer?

If you still have it installed launch FCP. The serial number is on the splash screen.

In certain versions of FCP, the serial number was not fully displayed. If that's the case, call Apple and plead your case.

It has the full serial number on the splash screen, I believe. Nothing is xxx'ed out.

Is that all i need is the serial number?

That's it. When you install the upgrade it will ask for the original retail serial number.

In the versions that masked the serial number, nothing was x'd out. In the splash screen, the last few alpha-numeric characters were simply not displayed.

Wait, that version only had nine group of triplets. The tenth group with four digits didn't appear until FCS2.
