Hi @Anonymous and welcome to the Autodesk Community!
Did you download AutoCAD for Mac from the Education Community? If so, the easiest way around this issue is to register a new Education Community account with a different email address and obtain a new serial number.
There is no need to fully download the program again, simply go as far as obtaining the serial number.
Please accept as solution if my post fully resolves your issue, or reply with additional details if the problem persists.
