The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords, especially your Apple ID/iCloud password NOW!
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, and running iOS 7.0, then phone cannot be activated or the passcode removed without knowing your Apple iD/Password. It will be nothing but a useless paperweight.
If not running iOS 7.0, the phone can be forced into recovery mode & restored.
Your carrier has a record of your IMEI number. Also read here:

Hi, I accidentally deleted photos from my photo stream, causing them to disappear from my camera roll aswell. I am desperate to get these photos back. Is there any way I can recover them? Thanks
Hi Am1121,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you have a backup of your iPhone on either iCloud or iTunes from the time when those photos were on the Camera Roll, you can restore from that backup and recover those photos. Please use the following article for information on restoring from backups.

Hi, my IPAD was stolen last April 30, 2014 here in the Philippines. Is there any way how to locate or LOCK it so anybody cant use it? Thank you
Here is some guidance ... What to do if your iOS device is lost or stolen

Remember, take a note of the incident number when you have reported it to the police ... without that, any domestic insurance claim will not receive attention. -

We had a MacBook Pro stolen from our home when we were out of town and I am pretty sure we never activated the LoJack type of function on it not sure if its called lojack but you get what I am saying is there any way we can activate such hardware/app now so we can possibly recover our laptop? Any one who can point us in the right direction that would be great and we would be very grateful. Thanks So MuchLojack for laptops - if that is the product you purchased and installed, you will need to read the user manual or contact the manufacturer as it is 3rd party. You did file a police report right?

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?

I bought an iphone 4s off of kijiji and the phone is linked to the persons apple id, and i ant get in contact with them. is there a way i can activate my phone without having to jailbreak it.
You won't be able to activate it even if you do jailbrake it. There's no way around activation lock without the assistance of the prior owner.

I synced my sisters phone with my itunes and now all her contacts have disappeared and been replaced with mine and also photos... she has never done a back-up is there any way we can get all her contacts and pictures back?
Look under iTunes>Preferences>Devices...is there a backup listed for her phone? First thing done when you sync is an iPhone backup. If you have not synced since screwing her phone up, restoring from that backup(if it exists) should restore her content. Do not sync after you restore her phone, eject it. So, first disable auto-sync on that same device pane in iTunes before you proceed. If this doesn't work, is your sister bigger than you? If so, run 'cause her data is gone .

I have microsoft outlook installed on my Mac book pro, I can only use the outlook with the office server where it was setup, outlook won't work out of office, is there any way I can reset the settings in order to be able to use outlook every where?
I can see my folders by clicking the X next to my name on the Inbox Folder. So I have my folders now, just cannot see them in the left colum or see multiple windows on Outlook. At this point, I can use the folders, just with limited functionality. Thanks -Gina

My friend's ipod was stolen and she has no way of knowing how to track it or find it. She believes it is a nano but she's not sure because it's not completely new. It is an old type of iPod. Is there any way of tracking or finding it if she has an iTunes account?
There is no way to track it. Sorry.

IPhone stolen, how to get old contacts back?
My iphone has gone and I have a new one on insurance. My old phone had ten years of contacts on it that the guy in the shop had transfered from my previous phone when I first got the iphone. I have a vague memory of a colleage at work setting me up on itunes on a work computer but I had never used itunes and stupidly never sync-ed or taken a backup of my contacts as far as I am aware, although presumably there must have been something that happened right at the beginning to get my phone started. Is there any way I can find my old contacts? They did not immediately appear when I plugged my new phone in - all I got was a random list of email addresse when I asked it to look at my google account. Do they exist on a file somewhere?
Your contacts are gone. The iPhone was never designed to be a stand alone storage device. While contacts are included in the iPhone backup, that backup only happens if you sync or manually create a backup. Since you don't sync(bad idea), no iPhone backup exists to restore from. Further, contacts are designed to be synced with a supported contact application on your computer. Had you been doing things, as designed, it would be a simple matter of restoring your contacts. Don't make the same mistake with your new phone.

I am not very tech oriented - I love my Ipod - had a library of 800- 900 songs - my computer was stolen, I have since bought a new one - started a new library because I could not figure out how to access my old library. Is there any way I can somehow find that original library and add it to my new library??
If these are photos that were synced to your phone, the only way to extract them from your phone is third-party software, like this:
