Find my ipod has been turned off

got an email saying find my ipod has been turned off and have lost my ipod wondering if there is anything that can be done

What model iPod? From that message it appears that you did not have a screen-lock passcode or somebody else knows it. Also they may know your Apple ID and password.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the device and report to police and carrier if iPhone or cellular iPad
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the erase (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 or later on the device. With iOS 7 or later, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • HT1391 Find my iPod has been turned off is there anyway to use the serial number to find it ???

    My iPod 5th gen. Has recently been stolen and I got an email saying that find my iPod was turned off and all I have left is the serial number and I was wondering if there was anyway to track it down and claim it using the serial number.

    No way at all.

  • HT201317 is there a way to view my photos if my phone was stolen and has been turned off?

    is there a way to view my photos if my phone was stolen and has been turned off?

    No. All you can do if you have Find My Phone setup is erase the device or lock it. It must be connected to Wi-Fi in order for the commands to take effect.
    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:

  • I recently upgraded to osx 10.9.2 and now my ftp has been turned off how do i turn it back on

    So frustrated have been trying to chat with apple support and i was supposed to be connected in 2 min.  That was 1 hour ago so I called and they can't transfer me to technical support unless I pay the 59 dollars for support.  All i did was upgrade and now my ftp has been turned off so my network scanner won't conect to the ip address on my imac.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks,

    Select your hard drive in the Finder and choose File -> Get Info. What is the available space?

  • Hi my airport router ( ateast i think this is where the problem originates) has been turning off intermittenly for the past week, when it does this NO devices recieve internet connection, mac, pc,iphone, ipad, wireless or hardwired directly to the router

    Hi my airport router ( ateast i think this is where the problem originates) has been turning off intermittenly for the past week, when it does this NO devices recieve internet connection, mac, pc,iphone, ipad, wireless or hardwired directly to the router. However they all show to be connected with their corresponding bars and the ip's are all fine. Earlier today it started flucuating on and off about every 5 min making work impossible and now it seems to be completely broken (im currently on my iphone connected though its own internet) Does anyone know how or ehy this happened and how i can fix this? And to know if this originates from the router or something else entirely. Thank you!

    Hi - some clarifications would help narrow down some symptoms - just what has been turning off? - has the light been solid green but the modem isn't providing wi-fi? - or is the light flashing yellow with no internet? - which can mean several things - does the light go out completey? - so if you can report on exactly what is happenening and when, maybe someone can help you - we also need to know if there any error messages along the way -  we also need the types of devices involved and how they are attached - kind of like a nework map  - the more info that you provide, the more answers you will get.
    Regards,

  • My ipod has just turned off and wont come back on

    my ipod has just turned off and wont come back on but i know it had a good amount of battery left and if i plug it into my computer or docking station nothing happens please help...

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I think my iPhone has been stolen. How do I know if Find My iPhone has been turned on?

    I'm not sure if I set up Find My iPhone. It is showing up in Find my iPhone, but as offline. Would it show up if I never set it up? Or does this mean its probably been turned off. I last had it within wifi and data should be turned on as well.

    If offline, that means Find My Phone was setup/activated. One of the first things a thief will do is turn an iPhone off, thus defeating Find My Phone.
    Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords, especially Apple ID & Mail.

  • My ipad has been turning off every now and again for some time now but last night it turned off and when i try to turn it back on its just a blank screen with the back lighting. please help me

    Hi there, ok so my ipad has been either turning off or just locking itself for sometime now but last night it turned itself off and when i tried to turn it back on it just came up with a blank screen with the back light.

I hav tried resetting it but as i am not very savvy with all this stuff i thought i would get some advise before doing anything else. it anyone can help me that would be fantasic
    thank you

    If a reset doesn't work, try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

  • IPhone 3g has been turning off, restore needed but it wont turn on!

    So it all started last night. my screen just went black. so today it went black a few times but i would plug it into the charger and it would turn back on. Now for the past hour ive been trying to get it to turn on. It turned on a few times and would stay on for a little. The longest it stayed on was 10 minutes and it was saying no service.than i got an alert that i needed a restore. So i unplugged my phone to bring it to my computer and now it turned off and wont turn back on. the apple symbol shows up but nothing else happens so i cannot even restore it. my phone is not jailbroken, but the only thing is my sleep/lock button doesnt work.
    WHAT DO I DO?

  • My service has been turned off even though I returned phone?

    I am so unhappy with Verizon! I have been a Verizon customer (loyal) for over 13 years now. I always loved them, bragged about them, encouraged friends, family and clients to sign up with them as well. Until last year. I sucked it up every time I upgraded my phone and they took away privileges (unlimited this or that......) because I thought that is the way everyone is going now. I was so excited to use my upgrade in October of 2012. I was counting the days! Literally on my calendar! I originally ordered the new i-Phone 5 until I heard I could get the 4 for free. So, 4 days before I was slated to receive my new 5, I ordered the 4 instead. Biggest mistake EVER! First of all, I had a Droid X, which I LOVED, but I bought my daughter the i-Phone 4 for Christmas the year before and I wanted the ability to Facetime with her. Also, my coworkers also had i-Phones, so when a group text went out, I got tired of downloading each message separately.
    My i-Phone never held a charge longer than 7-8 hours right out of the box! My daughters lasts 2 days new, easily. Even after a year, it still lasted longer than my brand new one. The sound is barely audible on the highest volume. So, couldn't use my alarm at all. Too quiet. Missed a ton of phone calls for work because I couldn't hear it ringing. In addition to being self-employed and working full-time, I was also enrolled in college full-time, a single mom, etc. No time to be on hold, just to be disconnected.....but that is what happened! Not only did I not get service anywhere on campus (my Droid got service everywhere except the middle of one building), I could not call Verizon customer service between classes. At work, I am too busy (hairstylist) so when I DID have more than a minute, I tried calling Verizon.
    The first time I called, I must have pushed the wrong button at the end of the auto-you-pick-maze. Hung up. Client showed up and was too busy the next two days to call again. Second call: got through and she said she would connect me to the right department and I got an out of service message. You know, the kind with the 3 raising beep, beep, beeps? This number is no longer in service etc.........Weird. No time to call til the next day. FINALLY got ahold of someone! SO happy! He told me to call from another number and he was looking at my phone somehow (weird, but ok) and I was on the phone with him for 20 minutes and had to get to class. (Remember how I said my phone didn't work on campus?) The gentleman from Verizon PROMISED to call me back at an agreed upon time and never did! I told him how hard it is for me to make time and the difficulties I have had with trying to get through and he promised!!
    By then, so fed up, was ready to cancel my Verizon account and transfer to the competitor. Decided when I had time (after the quarter was finished and holidays over) that I would go into the store and deal with it. Of course by now, it had been too long so they said they would give me a $90 credit for my i-Phone (they swore it wasn't refurbished and they would NEVER sell a used one as new but now I don't believe it) and I could pay the difference on another phone. Not happy but desperate to get a phone that worked, I chose a cheaper Droid. The Samsung Stellar. When I told my daughter they charged me $250 for that phone, she was furious! She said that was a total rip off. Even worse, when the new phone arrived, it was not even new! It was refurbished. Whatever. STILL desperate to have a working phone, I followed the directions to activate it. It never activated. The running circle on the screen went round and round and never stopped.
    I am SO OVER THIS!!!! I brought it down to FedEx and shipped it back. During the billing cycle in between, I paid my normal bill minus the replacement phone charge. On Saturday, I get a message from Verizon saying they are turning my phone off (can't remember the exact terminology they used) if I did not bring my account current. Through another maze of automated-you-pick-menus, I was able to choose a button that told them my overdue payment was in the mail. Technically, it was. Tonight, no service on my phone. Checked FedEx tracking number and they received the phone yesterday!! I AM SO FED UP!!!
    Now, I am reading the forums and realize I am one of MANY who this has happened to and it looks like the fun is just getting started. Looks like they will say the box is empty first (as per other reviews on here) then, after a couple months, they will "find" the phone..........I am still stuck with a ****  i-Phone 4. I never thought Verizon would treat me this way.  Guess this is what happens when a company gets too powerful. They don't care about the customers anymore. I think I am going to bite the bullet, pay the early termination fee and never look back. I hear AT&T is offering a great deal for new customers right now............

        Hey Salonsister.  I want to start off by saying I admire all that you do as a single mother.  That is awesome that you are able to go to school full time, have a full time job, and raise a family. You truly are a hard working person, keep up the great work.  With all the hard work you do, we absolutely want to do everything we can to make this easier on you.
    I am sorry to learn about all the phone issues you have been having.  The iPhone 4 is a great device and I truly am sorry to hear that it gave you so many issues.  I completely understand that you are busy, but I am confident that if given the chance to troubleshoot that we would have been able resolve the issues you were having.
    The Samsung Stellar you purchased was most likely a Certified Pre Owned device.  If you were not upgrade eligible this would have been your least expensive option.  The phone at full retail is $329.99 so by going with a Certified Pre Owned device you saved $100.00. For more information on the Certified Pre Owned program please visit http://vz.to/rcDvLW.
    I understand that it didn't activate, but again if given the chance to troubleshoot I am positive we could have gotten that up and running for you.
    When you shipped the device back? Did you ship it back within the 14 day Worry Free Guarantee? When purchasing a device or an accessory you have 14 days to return the device from the point of purchase for a full refund.
    If you let a balance run past due, you do run the risk of having your services interrupted. I know you returned the phone and all, but that balance was due as a part of that bill which was due on whichever date your bills are normally due.  The adjustment would than appear on the next bill.
    Did you receive an alert that the device was received? If not, did we file an investigation for you?
    We truly do care salonsister and it would be sad to see you go. I am here to assist and I know we can get this straightened out for you. Please provide additional details to the questions I asked and I will continue to assist.
