Can I find my mac from the serial number

HI!
My macbook and ipad were stolen last week. I know their serial number and other information from the invoice, Can I find them?

Not likely, only way would be if you registered through Find My...in iCloud and then only if it is attached to the internet would it show up.
Notify the police so the serial number is in the stolen property data base...if it appears on the market people will know if it has been stolen.

  • Can you find my ipod with the serial number if it is dead ??

    Can you find an ipod with the serial number if it is offline because it is dead?

    No. It can absolutely not be tracked if off/dead. The serial number cannot be used to track it whether it's on or not.

  • Can I find my ipod with the serial number :o

    I lost my ipod and I was wondering if I could find that ipod with the serial number

    No                           
    - 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.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order

  • I can't find my box for the serial number. How can I start elements 11 on my new computer?

    How can I activate my elements 11 on my new computer. I lost my box that has my serial numbers on it

    Did you install it on your old machine?  Is the old machine still around with you in working order?  If so then there is a tool called Belarc Advisor that can retrieve the serial number from the old machine.  It is for Windows only so if you are using Steve Jobs machine then you are in bad luck.  Unless of course, you registered the product with Adobe but most people don't;  I don't anyway.

  • HT4061 How can i find my ipad with the serial number

    How can I find my iPad with serial number

    I had FindMyPhone installed and activated on MY Lost iPad (now with a new "owner") and it NEVER worked EVER!
    There is/was no such thing as FindMyiPad...ONLY FindMyPhone. It WAS installed (I dont own an iPhone) AND activated! I suspect that unless you have 4G device it is worthless. Actually I  know this for a fact!
    AND, I knew that the new "Owner" had gone online (despite FindMyPhone telling me otherwise and NEVER locking my iPad) because Dropbox on my laptop suddenly had new photos that were taken by the new "owner".
    I am now of the mind that Apple does not want us to find our lost or stolen gadgets. They make money off  us when we replace them. Do what I am going to do: BUY USED!
    So sorry, I feel your pain.

  • My iPad was stolen and I had not activiated "Fine my iPad".  I have the serial number.  Is theree a way to protect my data or find my ipad with the serial number?

    My iPad was stole.  I had not activated "Find My iPad".  Can I find my ipad using the serial number or have it erased using the serial number?

    There is no way for Apple to track an iOS a device by serial number. Your data is unprotected and you should take steps to make sure that nothing is compromised.

  • How can I find a photo from the backup file in my pc?

    How can I find a photo from the backup file in my pc?
    I have accidentally erased a photo. It happened after the backup.

    I am not aware you can extract a single photo or a single app's content from the backup, you can either restore the whole backup to your phone or not restore. If you restore your last backup to your phone then any content that is currently on your phone will be replaced with what was on it at the time that the backup was made - so if you do decide to restore, first copy off any purchases to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, and copy any documents/files that you've udpated on the phone since the backup.

    Just recently had to replace my iPad, backed up my old iPad on iCloud can't find my pictures from the old iPad any ideas?

    Navigate to Settings > General > Software Update and install any updates available.
    Navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
    When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from.

  • HT201441 can i find my iphone with the phone number or serial number

    can i find my iphone with the phone number or serial number

    You can only locate, lock or erase your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

    What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen
    iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
    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:

  • My hard drive went out one of my Macs and I am trying to install logic studio on another Mac but the serial number is invalid. What are my options?

    My hard drive went out one of my Macs and I am trying to install logic studio on another Mac but the serial number is invalid. What are my options?

    Check that the serial you are using is the correct one..
    Typically the problem is either you are misreading the serial and therefore typing it in wrong. Check you are correctly entering zeros or O.. and so on....
    or...
    You bought the LP9 upgrade version.... which requires the LP8 full serial as well.
    If it is the LP9 upgrade serial.. (and not the LP9 full serial) you must enter your original LP8 full serial first and then the upgrade serial for LP9.. when it asks for it.
    Failing that.. you can obtain a replacement serial from Apple.. using this form.....
