Cant use find my iPhone on my ipod touch

Just upgraded my ipod touch to iOS 5. Tried using 'find my iPhone' both on the device's app and on icloud.com. Both say it is either offline or 'no location'
location services are on, find my iPod is on, signed into iColud, not sure what else to do???

- On the devices go to the Mapps app. Does you correct location show?
- Try resetting your dvices. That is what I had to d after updating to iOS 5.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

How do I use find my iPhone with a iPod Touch 3g?

l I tried using it on a friends iPod Touch, because I lost mine. I tried regestring but It didn't work, to my dismay I learned that MobileMe was closed to new subscribers. I tried doing it on iCloud, but iCloud is only for iOS 5. So how do I register findmyiPhone with a iPod Touch 3g?
Or did Apple Screw me over on this one? (Sorry, you'd be ****** to if someone stole an iPod you left on a table when you were going to the bathroom.)

Sorry, but Apple didn't screw you. You screwed yourself. See, there's no point putting a lock on your door after the burglars have left.

Hi My Iphone has just been stolen and I cant use 'find my iphone' feature what should I do now, it has important notes and photos?

Change all your passwords. Notify your carrier and the police of the theft. Check to see if your homeowners or renters insurance may cover some of the cost of replacing it.

Use the original iPhone as a iPod Touch

I would like tlo use my original iPhone as a iPod Touch but I am unable to activate or unblock the SIM card. I cannot use my iPhone 4 SIM car on the original as it is a different size.
What now?

I did borrow the SIM card from a friends old 3G he is using an an iPod Touch. It worked.
Even more interesting is that when I placed the "problem" SIM card in the 3G it merely indicated the SIM was locked but otherwise works as intended - an iPhone without cellular service - an iPod Touch.
No idea why the 1st gen iPhone will not work with its own SIM but its SIM works in a 3G.

Solution to still use Find My iPhone for "old" iPods?

Hey everyone,
I manage a few K12 classroom sets of iPods (generation 4) and I foolishly updated all relevant apps in the iTunes library specific to our iOS project...I should have read, yes, but am more than frustrated that Find My iPhone no longer functions with iOS 6 as this "old" generation of iPods is not allowed to update to iOS 7. This was a piece of our security on these devices which no longer functions. And unfortunately the file version for Find My iPhone no longer exists in my iTunes library after I updated it and updating the file in Apple Configurator seems to have sealed my fate...
Just hoping that I have missed something obvious or that someone has a nice work around (like a copy of the "old" Find My iPhone file)...
Thanks.

I don't know what you mean by the "file version for Find My iPhone". Are you referring to the Find My iPhone app? If that's what you mean, that app is not necessary for your iPods to be trackable. That app only goes on iOS devices you wish to do tracking from. All you need to do to be able to track your iPods (to the extent they can be tracked, which being WiFi-only devices is limited to locating the WiFi router the iPod is connected to) is set up Find My iPhone in the iCloud settings, and that works back to iOS 5. You can then track the devices via icloud.com on any system with a modern web browser.
Regards.

I want to use my original iphone as an ipod touch but it does not see any wifi

For a long time, my iphone would see my home network intermittently, but it would always drop the signal. I have been searching the web to try to find a way to resolve this issue. Recently the wifi connectivity seems to have gone completely out.
I just want to allow my kids to use it as an ipod touch.

I actually performed a complete restore on the phone, but it did not work. I then took the phone in to the Apple genius bar, and they diagnosed it to have damaged wifi hardware. Thank you all for your suggestions.

Can I use the old iphone as an ipod touch?

My buddy wants to upgrade to the new iphone, so if I get his old iphone can I use it basically as an ipod touch? I don't want to pay the $80+ for phone service but love all the touch features. Please help with this question.

I think you're set if he cancels his service providing he had the pay-as-you-go plan. No voice or EDGE, but I'm 95% sure everything else will work, including WiFi.

How do I get back my iPod if I can't use find my iphone and no internet on it?

I recently lost my iPod and I went back to go find it and it was gone, I filed a report on it being lost then stolen. The thing is I cant use Find my iPhone because I didn't have it on at the time. Also I reset my iPod because there was to much stuff on it. I never connected it to the wifi after i reset it. Please help.
I do have my serial number!

You did all you could. The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours IF it is recovered. Make sure you change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod.

You don't need the Find My iPhone app. You need to turn on Find my iPod in Settings > iCloud on your iPod. Then to locate your iPod from your PC, go to https://icloud.com and follow instructions.

Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer

If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way. Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

My brother as a prank locked my ipod using find my iphone. Is there any way i can unlock it because my brother wont tell me the password he put on it and it says lost mode on.

I was using my ipod at night then all of a sudden on the sceen it said ipod has been locked then it said my phone number and it said call me or the police will. I knew my brother locked it from the computer using " find my iphone" it was on lost mode like if it was lost/stolen. The problem was he knew my apple id and password. He wouldnt tell me the password and since he went to mexico to visit cousins he wont come back till October. What shall i do? I wanna unlock it. Somebody please help me. Thanks in advance.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
