Find my ipod touch (read inside)

I know there is iCloud but ipod is too old. is there an app or some other way to find 2nd gen if I misplace it? I don't think I will misplace it but after misplacing it today, I wanna prevent misplacing it again.

I assume that the Skype app will work on a 2G iPod. If so, set it up on your computer and your iPod. Then you can call it and it will ring if it is in range of your router. Alternatively, get a texting app that rings when it receives a message.

How to set up "Find My iPod Touch" 3G without MobileMe

Hi, I have an iPod touch 3G and want to set up "Find My iPod Touch" on it, as described here:
http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/find-my-ipodtouch-setup/
I'm running OS 4.3.4 (8K2) and have iTunes 10.4.1. I have an AppleID but not a MobileMe account. I understand that since iCloud is replacing MobileMe, they are not accepting any more subscriptions (not that I'm anxious to pay $99/year for what will now be a free service). I'm not sure I want to create a new account anyway, because all the apps I own are linked to my current Apple ID which is not an email address.
I have a program called "Hidden" for my Macbook which works via wi-fi. If I lose the Macbook, I log into the Hidden website and it triggers the Macbook to broadcast its location via wi-fi (assuming it's within range of a signal). So I would assume that since an iPod touch has wi-fi capabilities, it could do something similar even though it's not directly linked to the internet like an iPhone.
Does anybody know how I can get this going?
My son has an iPad 2 that is wi-fi only and I would like to set up the same for him.
Thanks for any help you can give!

I updated to OS5, and changed my Apple ID to the email account associated with it on this page:

and now Find My iPod Touch is installed! Resolved!

Unable to get past message about "Find my IPOD Touch" when ITUNES starts

When I connect my IPOD Touch to computer and Itunes opens, I get the screen shown below and unable to get past it. I can access all other stuff in Itunes. I am unable to sync by IPOD. Clickin on the supposed links in the message does nothing.
This is the screen I get:

As I said on my first post, changing the iTunes Library name did not work. Restarted my PC, iTunes, my iPhone. Nothing worked.
Before going on, I put every thing back the way it was, and exported my library, just to be sure.
Then I tried and removed every iTunes Library file (iTunes Library.itl, iTunes Library Extras.itdb, iTunes Library Genius.itdb and iTunes Library.xml). Restarted and it worked. Then I imported my library, and went to my Mobile applications folder and re-added all apps to iTunes.
BUT the apps in my iPhone in iTunes apps window were greyed out. So I synced my apps. It said it would remove everything from the phone and replace it with the new apps, I confirmed, and it synced just fine. I lost no data, no saved games, no apps, no music, everything was just fine.
Hope it helps.
Cheers.

IPod Touch Install will not get past "Free Find My iPod Touch" Help..

When trying to click on any of the links, they do not seem to work at all, which is really bugging me. All I want to do is use my new iPod Touch, which I currently cannot do.
Also, the page i pasted above is NOT in the correct iTunes style/format, and there is no Search Bar above it, etc. It is just a blank page with exactly what I pasted.
Please help me, I would be forever grateful.

My iphone works!!! But it wasn't from rebooting (although rebooting gave me the idea to try Plan B, so thx very much for inspiration). I rebooted several times and nothing happened. Then, I decided to download the FindMyiPhone app (in case that had something to do with it). I downloaded the app from the app store on my iphone--NOT through itunes on my computer. (Tried that and failed).
After I downloaded the app, I had to go into iphone Settings "Mail, Contacts.." and key in my Mobile Me info. (Also, make sure Push notifications is ON; this is also in Settings) Next, I enabled bluetooth and then tried to connect to our wifi home network. As soon as iphone "discovered" the home network, I opened itunes, and the first screen asked me how I wanted to set up my phone.Yippie!
I don't know if the FindMyiPhone app had anything to do with it or if the iphone just wanted me to key in all of the MobileMe/itunes account stuff, so you'll have to figure out that one for yourself. I would be willing to bet, though, that this process will work with ipods as well as iphones.
Now, if I can just get rid of this splitting headache...

How I find my iPod touch 4g without Internet acces.because my iPod lost on a trip so how I find that?

you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.

When i scan my ipod from the application named find my ipod touch 4 it simply shows location unavailable while that of my cousin's ipod touch exactly shows the same location..... Why does that happen???

When you go to the Google Maps app on the iPod does it correctly find your location? The iPod's locations service uses the location of the a nearby wifi router to locate te iPod. However, not all routers are in Apple's database and as of yet nobody here knows of a way to add routers to the database.

I can't get my iPad to find my iPod touch via bluetooth... Help!!!

I can't get my iPad to find my iPod touch via bluetooth, tried shutting off wifi on both and reseting. iPod 2 days old, 4 th gen white, iPad 2 = 2 months old

This is happening to many people.
For me, it's the Key Note Remote app that won't connect with my iPad2 from my iPhone4 after update to iOS5.
Apparently this does not affect the new iPhone 4S.
But that's not a solution unless you are planning on upgrading.
I'm still waiting for a response from Apple but I'd advise you to go to whichever app isn't connecting with Bluetooth and hit the "REPORT A PROBLEM" button in iTunes app page for said app.
This will go directly to the devs and should ellicite a faster response.
Hope this gets fixed soon.
Warm regards.

Police don't "track down" lost items, per se. They'll keep your information on file in the event that someone finds your iPod and turns it in. Otherwise, there's nothing the police can or will do in regards to finding lost property.
Sorry, but your iPod is most likely gone for good.
Regards.

also to people who is thinking about my id, i'm named after my world of warcraft character :-)

Can't be done.
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 a bank or any other 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. This requires action before the device is lost/stolen. If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

Find My iPod Touch Erase

Accidentally erased iPod from Find My iPod Touch and is now stuck on a progressing apple logo, but does not load or progress! Tried DFU and Recovery mode, it didn't work.

If the iPod remains on when diconnected and you can't turn it off then let the battery fully drain they try everything again
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

TS4006 how can I find my Ipod touch if I have not fully registered in Icloud? I downloaded Icloud but did not complete the registration. I recently backed it up with Itunes 2 wks ago. Will be able to find my Phone ID from that? Please help.

I lost my Ipod touch. I have downloaded Icloud but did not complete registration. I have back it up with Itunes 2 weeks ago in my computer at home. I am out of town. How can I find my Ipod touch?

In order to use Find My iPhone (or iPad, etc), your device has to be connected to iCloud with a valid ID/account, the Find my iPhone service has to be turned on (on the device), in Settings>iCloud. It sounds as though you haven't done these tasks - unfortunately, there's no way to track your lost device.
BTW, you don't "download" icloud, you register it on a device by going to Settings>iCloud and then click the ON switch and entering your ID/password (perhaps this is what you meant by downloading iCloud).

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.
