  • Can you call apple to track a missing ipod with the serial number?

    i lost my ipod or soeone must have stolen it..i did not have any tracking devices or gps apps on it...can apple track it through the serial number?

    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 your bank or any 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.  Something as small as an iPod should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

    You can't. The SN will only identify the iPod when if it is recovered.

  • Can it harm my ipod touch in any way or the files on it if it was connected to the computer while updating to a new version of itunes?

    Also, I tried asking support before I tried this forum and I think I asked it under the wrong category (troubleshooting and not using ipod with itunes) and they had me run an ios diagnostic test, if I'm not having trouble with my ipod and I ran it can that harm the ipod or affect it in any way?
    Thank You!

    I'm not having any problem that I can see, I was just curious as to if it can harm my ipod or any files on it if I have it connected to my computer while I'm updating to a new version of itunes. It ejected a few times and then again when I had to restart my computer. It seems to be working fine I was just wondering if it can affect affect the ipod at all if I have it connected while updating to a new version of itunes.
    And also if running ios diagnostics from support can do anything if I wasn't having trouble. I wasn't able to talk to anyone because I'm out of warranty for tech support for that device.

  • Can i track my i pod with the serial number??

    Someone stole my I pod off a church bus can you please give me some ways to track it down!!

    No. The serial number only helps identify you as the owner in case the device is found or the police recover it. Report the theft to the police. Then say a prayer.

  • TS4147 Is there any way with the latest version of iTunes to restore the ability to sync calendar and contacts WITHOUT using that cloud?

    Until I got to the latest version of iTunes, I always synced contacts and calendar directly.  Now that option is gone.  I have shut off iCloud but still don't have anyway to sync these, apparently, without going to the cloud.  I don't want to share my information with Apple.  Further, in the past any time I have attempted something like this it was a complete mess with entries duplicated.

    You can if you install OS X server (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/os-x-server/id714547929), as discussed here: http://www.macworld.com/article/2061183/itunes-ios-syncing-gone-solve-it-with-se rver-.html.

  • I lost my iPhone 5 and iCloud or find my iPhone isn't on is there any way I can track my iPhone with the serial number or is there any other way ? iCloud or Find My iPhone wasn't installed or on please help

    I lost my Black iPhone 5, 2 days ago. Someone stole it. Find my iPhone app wasn't installed, it's not on. Is there any way I can turn on "Find my IPhone" on my phone from my computer or can I track it with the serial number ? Please help.

    I guess no but they can't use it because most likely they restored it and the name of your find my iphone will disappear on your computer even if it is on because it does not have your name anymore.

  • Can you track itouch with the serial number?

    Can I track an Itouch with the Serial Number? My Son Itouch got stolen in Fam and Friends BBQ .

    No.  You could have only tracked the device via the FindMyIPod serviced which would have needed to be set up before the iPod was lost.

  • HT4623 I have lost my Iphone is there any way to track it?

    I have lost my Iphone is there any way to track it?

    The only way to locate any lost/stolen iPhone 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.

  • HT4061 i lost my Pad Please how can i track it ,I cannot remmeber the serial number.

    i lost my Pad Please how can i track it ,I cannot remmeber the serial number. Please help me find it

    Unless you enabled Find My iPad on it before it was lost then there isn't any way to locate it. If you did enable it then you could try locating it either via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone / Find My iPad on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPad disabled on it.
    If you think that it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.
    There are some methods described on this page for how you might be able to find the serial number :

    I have a 2nd generation itouch.  Is there any way I can sync it to my MacBookPro 10.6.8 without purchasing either a newer itouch or an iphone?

    No problem. It will sync fine. You do not need to do anything special.

    Apple does not track stolen devices. If you didn't have the Find My iPod touch app installed, you're pretty much out of luck.
