Mac Product Key Finder

Does what it is advertised to do. Did a scan and discovered some long lost licenses. Happy camper.

Problematic Testing Results:
1) The developer says the demo version can find 69 serial numbers. So why does MU say "64"?
2) The app found only 7 serial numbers on my MacBook Pro. That's all. And...
3) Two of the serial numbers are NOT for the correct applications, but instead these two serial numbers are listed as being for an application I've never installed, never had a serial number.
4) One serial number is ancient and non-functional, for iWork 2009.
5) The only reason it got one application's serial number right is because I had typed it into a file name stored with that application.
6) It did find the correct serial numbers for my Mac and commonly attached iOS gear.

For finding my hardware serial numbers, it gets one star. Otherwise, I see no point in this software. It provided no useful software serial numbers. Not-a-one.

How do you get Mac Product Key Finder Pro into the apps on the iMac. Normally the option to drag the program into the apps is presented. Do I have to run the program from its install file?

The free version finds 3 codes, the Pro finds almost all codes, is this a play from the developer to pay for the Pro instead?

I purchased the program on a recent promo as the price was right. When I installed it and ran it for the first time it crashed partway through the scan. I found out it was a happening only when doing a deep scan, which is the default, and emailed the developer. His response was very quick. Over the course of a few emails he sent me debug versions and I sent back the reports. The problem only occurred when scanning the plist file for my weather program, Seasonality. Seems that I was a member of a select group of 5 people having this problem. And not all people running the program had the problem. Today I received a new version to download which fixed the problem. I have to say it is rare these days to find this level of support. I know the dev put in a lot of time fixing a problem that was effecting a handful of users. I would rate support 5 stars. The program itself does the job it claims to do. It found 20 confirmed licenses and 92 possibles. I looked at the list and it appears that a number of the possibles are the correct codes. While that may not seem like a large number you have to realize that there is no real standard for how a program stores and checks the serial. The program is simple to use and is now completely stable. For this early a version, version 1, the program shows real promise and I hope to see the dev continue to improve on the list of found serial numbers.

Looks like it's the one and only free product key finder for Mac. I will agree with a comment below which says "Thank you for existing!" Pros. It works very well for Adobe softwares, including old versions of Photoshop. It also found product keys for Office 2008, Things and 1Password. I have only 2 more programs which it didn't recover product key for, but program specification never claimed it will. Cons. I wish it would support more programs (total number at the moment is 69 lol). This would probably require hell of a lot of work, as each software most likely is added manually by developer.
