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.

My daughters Ipod was stolen. Is there any way at all to track it?
My daughters Ipod was stolen while at school. How can I track the device in order to get it back??
- 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 unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

My daughters I phone was stolen yesterday, is there any way to track it?
My daughters I phone was stolen yesterday, is there any way I can track it?
If you set up find my iphone BEFORE it was lost AND it is on AND it has not been restored, then you may be able to track it using icloud.
Otherwise, there is no way to track it.
Report it to the police and change your passwords. -
My iTouch was stolen/lost, is there a way that I can track it by serial number? Will Apple let someone register my iTouch when it's already registered?

My friend bought a brand new iMac and a couple weeks later it was stolen. Is there any way to track an iMac? It's the second time he's had a break=in and second time an iMac was stolen. Thanks!! My friend is absolutely frantic about it.
If he Registered his mac in his icloud account and said yes to "Find my mac" than he can go to icloud.com, log-in, and than click find my mac. His mac can then be located.
Good luck! -
My parent's IPad is SUPER outdated and I'm trying to buy an app for my brother for Christmas. However, I can't buy the app because it says we need to update the software. The thing is, the computer that was connected to the IPAD, we no longer have. So is there any way I can update it on my mac without erasing all the photos and videos?
HELPPP ME BEFORE CHRISTMASS MORNING!!

My friend's iPod touch 5th gen is locked somehow for 41 years and she does not have a backup. Is there a way to unlock the iPod without restoring it or loosing the pictures and videos from the camera roll, the applications can be redownloaded and she had no music. Is there any known bug about ipods locking on their own because no one seemed to have tried to bypass the 4 digit code and it is locked for 26 million minutes.So thank you if anyone has any information or help for us.
Your friend may have placed the ipod next to an object that repeatedly pressed the screen. Under certain circumstances this can lead to what appears to the iTouch to be failed attempts to access the system. After repeated failed attempts, the Touch increases the waiting time required for the password and may ultimately lock in the way you describe.
It's been a while since this was posted, but this might be informative to someone else who finds themself in a similar predicament. -
I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?
Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created. -
My daughter reset her Mac book Pro to the factory settings by her doing this did we loose all the pictures and stuff that was on the computer before
If by resetting to factory settings you mean she erased the drive and reinstalled the operating system, OS X, then yes all data thatwas on it is gone. That is why apple included time machine so you can make backups of your data.

I'm seriously in a pinch here...plz help me out people...those are too valuable to me...
If you didn't get everything back you can try recovery-android.com. It works with ipads. There's a free trial so if you didn't get back all your pictures and videos you took after your backup last month, you might want to give it a try.
Hope this helps. -
I just got an iPhone 5c. Is there a way to sync it to my iPad so that all the apps on the phone are the same as the ipad? I want the to devices to be exactly the same.
You can back up your iPad, then restore the backup to your 5c. This will not transfer camera roll photos or apps that are not compatible with an iPad, but it will transfer other data, settings, apps and other purchased media.

my iphone 5 has been destroyed and wont work or even charge but i was wondering how i could get the pictures and videos off of it to my iphone 4?
Connect the 5 to a computer and see if it is recognized. If so copy the pictures from phone. If not, you are out of luck.
