The Media Access Control (MAC) address is a number that identifies a computer connected to a network. To find the MAC address on an Apple Mac select About This Mac in the Apple menu (top left), then click on More Info and then on Network in the left hand pane. The MAC address will be listed under Ethernet in the lower right hand pane.
