What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen
iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:
This link, Re: Help! I misplaced / lost my iPhone 5 today morning in delta Chelsea hotel downtown an I am not able to track it. Please help!, has some good advice regarding your options when your iDevice is lost or stolen.

I lost my ipod in my house and ive torn the house apart looking for it. I never enabled the Find My iPod Touch thingy because i never knew about it. Is there any way i could still make it make a sound or track it down to a point. I really need to find it, this is the first new ipod touch ive ever had and i havent even had it for a year. I have no clue where it is and i need to find it.
No. Find my iPod touch is the only way to track it. When updating to iOS 5.0, you were asked if you wanted to use Find my iPod touch, and the only way to get past that screen is to select Yes or No. In order for you not to have it, you must have selected No.

My daughters itouch was stolen today...is there any actions i can or should be taking so that all the pictures and videos she has taken can be deleted?
Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod. If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number). If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. This requires action before the device is lost/stolen. If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries. -
How can I recover a iMessage that was deleted and if not is there a way apple can send me email of all my iMessages in past month
Hi Toniann,
If you have a recent iCloud backup that was done when that message was on the devcie, you can restore from that backup.
No, Apple does not keep your messages, no do they have access to them. That would be a serious invasion of privacy, don't you think?

My ipad has been disabled and off for almost a year already i want to restart my ipad but doesnt want to charge is there any way i can make my ipad turn on or restart i alreaady tried charging it for acouple hours and clicking the middle and top button at the same time but it still doesnt work.... is there any other way to restart my ipad?
You don't just click the home and sleep button, you have to hold them down for at least 10 seconds while it is connected to the charger. If it comes awake (and it could take several tries) ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo and then let go of the buttons.
But that may not work. Polymer Ion batteries need exercise, a full power cycle is recommended once a month. Your battery may be dead. -

is there any way i can do that? i have a back up from 2 days ago and i don't have my iCloud sync with my photo
When restoring from the backup, whatever is included with the backup from two days ago should be restored which includes photos/videos in the Camera Roll at the time of the backup along with all other data included with the backup at the time of the backup two days ago.

My iphone was stolen and wiped clean is there a way to be notified using the serial number?
My iphone was stolen last week and was only turned on twice for a brief moment so find my iphone has not helped and the police refused to file a report. I believe it's been reset now. I have my serial number and was wondering if apple will register it was stolen and block others from registering it?
no
Sorry.
The police will not allow you to file a report for a theft? That does not sound right. -
