The solution is to determine the serial number of the real Mac by opening About This Mac or running System Information.

Where can I locate the Serial Number on my Mac? Are Serial Numbers unique? What are the limitations identifying a specific Mac using the Serial Number?
Mac Serial Numbers can be located under the 'About This Mac' section of Mac OS X and on the hardware itself as well as on some packaging and receipts, making the identifier quite versatile for identification and differentiation. The easiest way to locate the Serial Number for a particular Mac is to select 'About This Mac' under the Apple Menu on your computer and click the 'More Info.' You should see a window similar to this one: Image Credit: EveryMac.com In this example, from EveryMac.com's own collection, the underlined Serial Number is enough to identify a single Mac and it is believed to be unique to this one particular model - the. Please note, however, that not all Macs of a particular model have the same Serial Number characteristics.
Another reader also could have a, but it could have quite different identifying characteristics. Additionally, and unfortunately, Serial Number identifiers are not always unique to one Mac either, and this is a limitation overall. Based on hands-on inspection and thousands of reader-submitted Serial Numbers there appear to be some different models in the, and lines that share identifying information. There very well may be models in other lines that share identifying information, too. When Serial Number identifying information is shared they usually, but not always, are from the same subfamily.
One still should verify that an exact match for a Serial Number is correct and comprehensive using secondary identifiers whenever possible. Should you encounter a potential error or an omission in EveryMac.com's, please it. Another weakness of using Serial Numbers for identification is that repairs can alter or remove the serial number in software or hardware and/or provide conflicting Serial Number information. Occasionally, there are different Serial Numbers listed on the hardware and in software due to manufacturing error as well. In these situations, one will need to use alternate information to identify a particular Mac.

I have just started experimenting with Serproxy and Arduino to get some serial data into Flash Builder/Flex. Serproxy seems to work fine and seems to connect to whatever port is specified. However, I am not able to see or read any data from the serial port using ActionScript. This is odd, because the Arduino should be printing data on a loop. The only thing I can think of is that I am not setting the correct serial port number.

I have been trying to figure out how to find out what number should be set, that is, 5331, 5332, 5333, etc. How do I find out the port number? Is there a way to do this using Terminal on OS X maybe?
