how can i track down a stolen ipod touch with just my serial number

You can't. The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours IF it is recovered.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order

  • Is there any way to track my ipod touch with just its serial number?

    I recently lost my ipod touch at a friends house, and we have been looking for almost a week now to find it. It may have been stolen, as there were other people at his house, but I can't be sure. It does not have i cloud installed. So according to all sources ive checked, there is no way to track it. If there is no way to track the device with the serial number, is there a way to remotely install i cloud on to my ipod? it has been gone for almost a week like i said, so it is unllikely that it has any power left. I know that most likely the answer to both these questions is no, but I dont want to give up yet.

    - The SN will only identify the iPod as your if it is recovered.
    - Since you can't contact the iPod you can't install anything one.
    - Report to police
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod.
    - Look for it the old fashioned way, like if you lost your wallet.
    - Apple will not do anything.

  • How to track down my lost ipod touch with out having mobile me as a app???

    DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO TRACK DOWN A IPOD TOUCH WITH OUT HAVING MOBILE ME AS A APP?

    You cannot. Sorry.  You could try calling it via facetime, if  you have facetime, and listen for the ringing.
    BTW, typing in all caps indicates shouting, is considered rude and is difficult to read.
    Many simply do not read such posts.

  • Can you track a lost/stolen ipod touch

    MY ipod touch was lost/stolen. I thought I heard someone say at some point that these devices had something in them that allowed you to "track" where they are. Anyone know anything about this? I really want my baby back!

    Unless you have a MobileMe account on your iPod Touch with Find My iPod Touch activated, you are out of luck. http://www.apple.com/mobileme/features/iphone.html

  • How do I track an old (stolen) ipod touch if I already synced a new ipod touch with the old information without knowing it would not allow me to track my old ipod but my new one instead?

    I lost my iPod touch (4th generation) over a week ago and did not think I installed the icloud on it. When I was setting up my new iPod touch (4th generation),
    I saw that it automatically shows an option for icloud. That made me realize that I probably did install icloud in my old ipod. The problem is that I synced my old ipod with my new ipod on the computer. I thought if I didn't I would loose all of my old infomation. So now evertyime I use the app to find my iPod, it finds my new one. It shows only one device located under it. Is there a way I could find the old iPod? Or could I restore my new iPod and find the old one that way? I'm afraid if I restore it I would loose all my information from my old ipod.

    That makes no difference in finding/tracking your lost/stolen device.
    The old device will only show up in icloud.com if you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.

  • How do i find a lost/stolen ipod touch with no cloud or serial number

    Probably not the underlying reason.  Scenarios:
    - People would scream privacy violation if Apple logged your serial number every time you connected to Apple's site.
    - You tell Apple that somebody stole your iPod. You find it the next day on the kitchen table and forget to tell Apple. You sell it to me 3 months later. I log in and then sue Apple and you when the police come to me about having your stolen iPod.
    - Apple sets it up so they report to you when somebody logs in with your device.  You go to that house and get shot by the thieves. You sue Apple for placing you in a dangerous situation.
    There's no way any company is going to open themselves to this kind of mess.

  • How can i add music to my ipod touch with an older itunes?

    Maybe with a program like PhoneView or iPhone Explorer.

  • How can I get apps for my ipod touch with ios 2.2?

    I've been trying to search for games/apps for my iPod Touch but can't seem to find anything that doesn't required iOS 3.0 or greater.
    Does anyone have any suggested apps/games for the older gen ipod touch?  Is there a way to search the apps store for these older apps?

    If I may ask, why do you not just upgrade your iPod's operating system? Even the first-generation iPod touch can run iOS 3, and the 2nd-generation iPod touch can run iOS 4, though not all features work. Then you would have a much broader range of apps available to you.
    Regards.

  • Is there anyway I can get my stolen ipod back with it's serial number?

    It says that the device is offline (so find my ipod never works) so either it can't connect to wifi ( which means it's still at school) or someone reset it.

    Report it to the police and the school and change your passwrods.
    There is nothing more to do.

  • Is there anyway i can find who stole my ipod touch i have the serial number but i did not have the find my iphone app

    is there anyway i can track my ipod touch with just the serial number because someone stole it but i did not have the find  my iphone app

    You can only track it if you turned on Settings > iCloud > Find My before it was lost/stolen, and then registered it in iCloud's Find My Phone service.  You must then log in to iCloud, click Find My Phone and see if it shows up.  If it is turned off, not connected to the internet or been reset to factory condiditon it will not show up.  There is no way to track it except in that way.
    Report it to the police, insurance and cell provider in case the will blacklist the iPhone so it cannot be used.
    Change your passwords for accounts on the iPhone.

    Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.
    Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

  • How can I transfer music from my iPod touch to my new mac without a backup?

    I've seen a lot of tutorials on how to do this from various websites. Some are for windows only and some only apply to iPods that aren't touches. What I want to know is, how can i transfer my music from iPod touch to my Mac without losing everything and without having to buy all my music over again (none of my music was purchased on iTunes)? It'll break my heart that 600 songs are all gone simply because I don't have a backup or I didn't purchase from iTunes. There has to be a way to do this. Help?

    You need a third-party program like one of those discussed here.

    There is also PhoneView and TouchCopy.

  • How can I transfer photos from my ipod touch to my computer

    How can I transfer photos from my iPod touch to my laptop.?

    What photos?
    Photos synced from computer to ipod are one way only  - computer to ipod.  As they came from your computer in the first place, they should still be there.
    Pics taken with ipod are imported as with any digital camera.
