Daughters ipod touch was stolen brand new

what to do

If Apple's free Find My iPod Touch was not enabled on the iPod Touch, there is nothing you can do besides reporting the theft to the police.

My daughters ipod touch was stolen yesterday on her bus ride home. she did how ever get it back today but the person tried so many times to get into it that it says "disabled" how can i fix this or do i need to take it into apple

Hello, I would like to know if any one could tell me how to fix my daughters ipod touch or if I need to take it into an apple store. One of the kids on her school bus stole it out of her backpack. My daughter got it back today at school but went to turn it on and the kid that stole it I guess tried to many times to get into so now when you turn it on it says "DISABLED". Can anyone please help!!!! Thank you, Julie

Wipe it clean and restore it. You should then be able to rename the iPod and set up an account with iTunes. I hope this helps!

Find my iPod Touch (iOS 4.2.1 and greater) - http://images.apple.com/ipodtouch/built-in-apps/find-my-ipodtouch.html - has to be enabled before device is lost. It also requires the device be on and connected to registered WiFi network, and not having been restored by the finder (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. Go shopping for a new iPod.

My daughters Ipod touch was stolen and retrieved, but now it won't work. It only says Ipod is disabled when turned on. What can I do to fix this?

When device is started the screen says Ipod is disabled. It will not allow me to do anything. How can I fix this issue???

Place the iPod in Recovery Mode and restore via iTunes.

If not successful, try DFU mode.

My ipod touch was stolen and i need the serial number but i dont have the paper work on it or the box so how do i get it

my ipod touch was stolen and i need the serial number but i dont have the paper work or the box, so how do i get the serial number?

If you registered it, Apple can help you. Give them a call.
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. 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.

HT204053 my ipod touch was stolen

Hi , Unfourtuntaly my Ipod touch was stolen when I went to get my 1993 corvette detail. The guy who stole it has been hacking into my google account. I have two ipad and back them up with icloud, unfortuntly I did not with the ippod touch. I did have the serial number once before from a apple assoicate. I also was able to track down some of the place they been by looking at my google history. I di not have any more details now. I did contact the owner of the shop, which i think it might have been him as well. I also called the police and told them where the ipod has been and where it last place to be at and had the serial number then and I told him I would like for him to go get it. He called the shop owner to work things out with me . he chose not too. and now I do not have the serial number. What can i do? Sincerly Karen aka Harmony4jc

First change your Google account / Gmail password. Go here:
https://www.google.com/settings/security
Sign in with your Google ID and password, and change your password. You will need to change your Google password in all the devices that use it already - your computers and iPads for instance, so don't forget the new password.
While you are there consider adding a secondary contact email and / or a phone number for Google account verification also.
That will prevent the thief from using your Google account, assuming he didn't change your password already. That would be bad.
Your iPod's serial number, while useful for the police report to establish ownership, is not useful in determining its location. Only iCloud can do that, assuming it was enabled it in your iPod Touch.
If you are absolutely certain the shop stole your iPod, or even failed to properly secure your Vette and its contents while it was in their care, then file a claim in small claims court. The burden is on you to prove they stole it, but if the shop owner suspects you are right he will settle with you. He may even fire the scumbag who stole it.
Don't forget that comprehensive auto insurance policies generally cover the car's contents as well, but the reimbursement might only reduce your deductible amount.
Good luck!

I'm on vacation and my ipod touch was stolen.

My iPod touch was stolen last night and I didn't have the "find my phone" app installed. Is there a way to clear all the apps and information off the iPod remotely through icloud?

My ipod touch was stolen, I'd like to remove all the content that was on it...

So my iPod touch was stolen. I've finally come to terms with the fact that I'll never see it again.
I'd really like to punish whoever stole it. I already changed all my passwords and billing information (it was stolen with my purse and I already changed my debit card). I signed into iTunes today and it says I have an outstaning balance. Whoever stole it must have tried to buy something before I changed everything. I'm already in the process of getting that taken care of.
So I looked at my apps and realised that I don't need them any more so I deleted them. It made a note that the content would be removed from ALL my devices, which got me thinking. Is there a way that I can remove all the music from my iPod as well? I dont want them listening to all my awesome music that I bought. I know that if I remove all my music from my library it will take it away from my iPod, but from my computer as well. Does anyone know if there is a way around this? Maybe if I do delete it from my library but get it back somehow, like maybe saving it somewhere else? I know it's a little far-feched but I would feel a little better about some stranger using my iPod (that my brother gave to me as a birthday gift while he was away at the Navy) if they also didnt have access to all the music that he and I bought. Any sort of hints would really be appreciated.
Thanks =]

If you set up the Find My iPod service before the iPod was stolen, then if circumstances allow (the iPod is on, connected to WiFi, and the thief hasn't restored the iPod or otherwise disabled the service) you could wipe the device. If you didn't set up the service, though, then there's nothing you can do.
I looked at my apps and realised that I don't need them any more so I deleted them. It made a note that the content would be removed from ALL my devices.
I know that if I remove all my music from my library it will take it away from my iPod, but from my computer as well
That only happens when you sync the iOS device to your computer. It does not remove anything from a non-connected iPod. So there's no need for you to remove your music, nor your apps, from iTunes on your computer since doing so has no effect on the stolen iPod.

If the thief enabled activation lock on the device, then there is nothing that can be done. Only the password for the Apple ID that it is locked with can disable activation lock.

My ipod touch was stolen and im trying to find a way to track it down

my ipod touch was stolen and in trying to find a way to track it down.

IF you set up find my ipod on the ipod and it is on and it is connected to wi-fi and the thief has not restored it, then you may be able to get an approximate location using icloud.
Otherwise it cannot be tracked.

My iPod touch was stolen.. and recovered.. but the kid that stole it cleared my iPod and "made it his own".. it has a password that makes me unable to use it. I have tried to restore thru iTunes but it won't let me without the password.. HELP !

My iPod touch was stolen.. and recovered.. but the kid that stole it cleared my iPod and "made it his own".. it has a password that makes me unable to use it. (He won't give up the password). I have tried to do the restore thru iTunes but the "note" from iTunes says it is unable to restore without the current password.. is there anyway around this... HELP !

You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it. If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.
