Can a thief access my Apple account with my stolen iPod Classic?

My iPod classic is presumed stolen. Can the thief access my Apple account with the Classic? Do I need to contact Apple and de-register the device?

They cannot access your account using it. They could potentially extract your media and from that learn the email address of your Apple ID. They would need to crack the password by force. The device itself doesn't have any access to your account and cannot be de-registered for it.

  • HT204053 Why can't I access my apple account?

    I tried to access my apple account to sort out my billing information, but for some reason I am repeatedly asked for my password. I know for a fact that my I.D and password are correct because I was able to sign into this web site with no problem. I've also tried rebooting my phone but that didn't work. Can anyone help me out cos now it's doing my head in.

  • Can I find serial number in itunes for my stolen ipod classic?

    My ipod was recently stolen and I'm wondering how to find the serial number for my insurance company so I can replace it. Does anyone know how to do this? I am computer illiteriate and could reall use some help here...

    Yes, if you have any backups on file.  If you are using windows, go to edit>preferences, if on a mac, go to itunes>preferences. 
    When you are in the preferences page, choose the device tab.
    Look for a backup of the ipod, if there is, you can just hover your mouse over the backup, dont click or anything, but after a moment or two, a little box will pop up with you serial number.

  • Can you use a Canadian apple account/billing address on the mac app store in the uk

    What up
    Just wondering, can you use a canadian apple account with a canadian visa and billing address to purchase apps from the mac app store in another country (England)
    Merci

    Hi..
    The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."
    From here >  The Complete Guide to Using the iTunes Store | iLounge Article
    Billing policy is the same for both the iTunes and Mac App Stores.

  • Why can't I access my icloud account on iPad

    Why can't I access my icloud account with iPad mini ?

    On your iPhone iCloud is accessed automatically when you use the iPhone, I.e., contacts syncing, calendars syncing iCloud documents accessed, backups made, etc.
    To enable iCloud functionality go to Settings > iCloud.

  • I am having trouble, my icloud is using an old Apple ID, and i can no longer access that email account, or know the password to that, how do i switch it?

    I am having trouble, my icloud is using an old Apple ID, and i can no longer access that email account, or know the password to that, how do i switch it to my new Apple ID?

    Having the email address is not necessary. It is just the username for the device. All you need is that Apple ID and password. Now, if you forgotten the password, then you have more work to do. Since that email is no longer active, you would need to send the reset to your rescue email, if you remember that. Or you will need to contact Apple Security for help.

  • HT5624 Restore back up of my iPhone-password not recognised. After restore, itunes can not restore because it says the password is incorrect. But I can sign into my apple account with the password.

    Restore back up of my iPhone-password not recognised. After restore, itunes can not restore because it says the password is incorrect. But I can sign into my apple account with the password.  My iPhone is now set to factory settings as a new phone, what can i do to access the back up from my phone before I reset it. 

    That does happen.  It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system.  If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.

  • Can i create an apple account with an app store card, or do i Need an itunes card?

    Can i create an apple account with an app store card, or do i Need an itunes card?

    You need an iTunes card.
    You can setup an account without a credit card if that helps.

    I found this in the iTunes help menu.
    Redeem an iTunes allowance, gift certificate, or Gift Card
    If you received an iTunes Store allowance, gift certificate, iTunes Gift Card, or promotional code, you can use it to buy songs, videos, or audiobooks from the iTunes Store.
    You need to set up an Apple ID for use with the iTunes Store before you can redeem anything in the iTunes Store. You don’t need to enter credit card information to redeem only the amount of a gift certificate or card.
    Before redeeming anything, make sure you are signed into the iTunes Store (choose Store > Sign In, or select Sign In from the navigation bar at the top of the iTunes Store window):
    I don't see any mention of App Store cards.

  • HT1338 I cannot access my Hotmail account with Safari on my MacBookAir but I can access it on my Mac/Safari and also from my PCs.  Has anyone experienced the same?  Does anyone know a fix for this?

    I cannot access my Hotmail account with Safari on my MacBookAir but I can access it on my Mac/Safari and also from my PCs.  Has anyone experienced the same?  Does anyone know a fix for this?

    To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
    Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
    Does it work in the new account?

    if i have an Apple account with monay in it and i want to creat a new account can i transfer the money from the old account to the new account ?

    If the money contains a completely unspent balance from an iTunes gift card, the iTunes Store staff can put that money back onto the card.

  • Can my colleagues access my itunes account and all of the apps in there from their own pcs? What we really need is a shared itunes account so that anyone in the office can add apps to the account and everyone else will be able to access it?

    I have an itunes account to update the office ipad. Now we have more of them can my colleagues access my itunes account including the apps to update their ipads with? it seems silly for everyone to have a seperate account and purchase apps that i have already bought.  We just want to share and update one account that everyone can use and access from their own pc.

    Unless I am missing the point here - or in the event that there are different terms and conditions for the use of iPad in the Enterprise with regard to iTunes purchases - once you have purchased an app - you are free to download that app again - at no charge - to as many iDevices as you desire - as long as you are using the same Apple ID and iTunes account that you used to make the original purchase.
    So the short answer to the question - IMHO - is Yes! My wife, my daughter and I share one iTunes account and we download apps onto four different iDevices - and only pay for the apps once. The purchases are tied to the Apple/iTunes account and not to the PC or the iDevice.
    The only caveat to this point is - I have no idea how Apple handles purchase for businesses meaning that I don't know if businesses are subject to the same terms and conditions as we "everyday" users.
    Maybe the company could set up one iTunes account and you could all share from there but I still don't see why this can't be done. However, that is why I suggest that this question might be better served being posted in the iPad in the Enterprise section of the ASC.

  • I can no longer find my apple TV with my iTunes, need to pair them, suggestions?

    Hi, I can no longer find my Apple TV with the new version on iTunes (i'm on OS X) on my computer, I need it so I can pair the Apple TV and iTunes account, any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    if it's an appletv 1g then you should go to settings on your appletv and remove the bind with the computer
    and then set it up again
    if it's the small black appletv then you don't pair them from itunes you only use it as airplay speaker and the atv access the itunes shared lib
