Here is one location where you can find the serial number in OS X 10.7 "Lion". In there be sure to select the Hardware section (not a subsection of it) and then the serial number will be listed under Hardware Overview. To find your computer's serial number, select "About this Mac" in the Apple menu and then click "More Info." In OS X 10.7 Lion you will see the serial number listed in the resulting window, and in OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard the System Profiler utility will open. Just enter your computer's serial number in the field and click Submit, and Apple will determine if your system needs to be serviced. In addition, you can check your Mac on Apple's site at the iMac 1TB Seagate Hard Drive Replacement Program Web site. If you have purchased one of these iMac configurations, Apple will likely contact you regarding the drive replacement, provided you gave a valid e-mail address when you registered your iMac. The Macs will be either the 21.5-inch or 27-inch models, provided they have been configured with the 1TB drives other drive configurations such as the 2TB or SSD options are not affected. Apparently a batch of the 1TB Seagate hard drives that shipped with iMac systems between May and July of 2011 may fail under certain conditions, and as a precaution Apple has started up a replacement program for the affected iMac systems.
