can apple track an ipod touch if lost?

No.
What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
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:

  • TS4006 can i track my ipod touch using my serial numbers.  not sure if icloud is turned on..

    can i track my ipod touch by using my serial numbers to locate it..not sure if icloud was activated

    Not with serial numbers, no.
    Find my iPod Touch (iOS 4.2.1 and greater) - http://images.apple.com/ipodtouch/built-in-apps/find-my-ipodtouch.html -
    The following conditions ALL have to be met:
    1) You have the "Find My" activated BEFORE you lose the device.
    2) The device is turned on.
    3) The device is able to connect to a registered wifi connection (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) or data network (iPhone, iPad).
    4) The device was not restored by a finder of the device (if it was really stolen then the thief has probably restored it).
    If you have activated the "Find My" feature, go to https://www.icloud.com or use the Find My iPhone app - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-iphone/id376101648?mt=8
    Setting up iCloud (requires iOS5) - http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html - includes activating the 'Find My' feature.
    Frankly in the case of a stolen iPod this almost never works. Report it to the police.  Change passwords on accounts.

    As long as it's under warranty (The warranty is 1 year unless you have AppleCare) they will replace it for free if the iPod had an issue that was not caused by you.
    Apple will replace an iPod that is still under warranty if it has a manufacturing defect. That's not the same thing.

    Hi cookiemonster,
    If you did not have iCloud on your iPod with Find My iPhone turned on, then there is no way to track it.
    You will have to just do it the old-fashioned way and look for it....
    Sorry,

  • Can Apple disable an iPod touch that was lost/stolen?

    My iPod was pickpocketed from me on my way home - unfortunately I can't get a hold of anyone at Apple because it's too late. Does anyone know if there is a way to disable the device remotely using my serial number? I changed as many passwords that I could think of, but I know I have a lot of personal information on there that I would not want a stranger to get a hold of. Can apple disable it once I get a hold of them?

    The only way you would manage this would be if you had a Mobile Me account and the touch was a recognised device. I guess from the message this is not the case and the other post is, sadly, your answer.

  • Can Apple unsilence my iPod Touch?

    I've lost my iPod Touch in my house or yard and it's on silent. Is there anyway for Apple to unsilecne my iPod so I can find it?

    No. Apple doesn't track your devices.
    If you had the Find My iPod touch app installed before you lost it, you can can try tracking with your computer.
    http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/features/find-my-ipodtouch.html
    The app can only pinpoint the touch to the residence, not necessarily your house or yard.
    Without that app, keep looking.

  • Can apple find my ipod touch with the serial number?

    I'm wondering how to find my Ipod touch and if it is possible to go to an Apple store, give them my lost ipod's serial number, and find it somehow. Can anyone tell me anything?

    - No.  The SN will only help idenify the iPod as yours if it is recovered. Apple will do nothing
    - If youu hadturn on FIndMyiPod and wifi is on you may be able to find its general location by going to icloud.com, signing  in and going to FindMyiPhone,. However, that can be defeated by turing the iPOd off or restoring the iPod.
    - Report it to the police and change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod.

  • Can I track my iPod Touch 4G?

    Hi, I've lost my iPod Touch 4G about 4-5 weeks ago, and I think I am going to go crazy without it. I downloaded iCloud, but it says I have to have it on my iPod. Well, I LOST my iPod, so is there any way I could track it down from my PC? I know it is in my house somewhere...it just seems like it disappeared out of thin air.

    Unfortunately, you can not track it.  You've got to search for it the same that you would search for a lost wallet.

  • Can you track your ipod touch if stolen

  • Can apple track an ipod thats been stolen

    my ipod was stolen today....its not conected to the unternet so i cant track it on icloud.com....just wondering if there was anyway apple could track it?

    Like the previous reply said, the answer is NO.
    But I'd like to ask you to stop and think about your question.  And then answer this one:
    If your iPod isn't connected to the internet, and if you can't find it using Find My Phone, what in the Wide, Wide World of Sports makes you think Apple can track it?
