[QUOTE="stefanmaine, post: 1369192, member: 197051"] I have a MacBookPro with OS X Lion. Two questions: (1) Still learning, I have just read about "Find My Mac" by which Apple apparently can locate (and manipulate) a lost or stolen Mac device. Hopefully, that will never be an issue. BUT in the event that it might be, is there something I need to do now so that my MBP would be "findable'? I think the answer has something to do with iCloud? (2) I purchased this MBP at an Apple store in a Best Buy. Then, I created an ID at apple.com. I suppose (but I don't remember) that at that time, I entered the serial number etc. of this MBP, but, if so, now I can't find any of that at apple.com. When I log in to my account there, all I see is "profile" stuff (name, address, password, etc.). When I log in to the App Store, the only purchases listed are OS X Lion and an app I purchased through the store. Is there somewhere at apple.com that my MBP is registered, and if so, can I see that?
