Finding a lost iTouch

Is there a way that you can find a lost/misplaced itouch using the gps in it? My itouch is 1st generation so it has no speaker.
Is there a way to wipe out the info inside the lost iTouch.
I subscribe to MobileMe.

My 13 year old son found someone's lost iTouch. (...lost it,ouch....) It is a 16 gig and has a serial number on the back, he figured it belonged to a girl because of the way it smelled of perfumey stuff and what he could see of the music on it. He tried random passwords to get into it, the time between each attempt taking longer and longer. Being practical men, we don't have much use for personal electronic fashion accessories. Being honest men, we are interested in finding the rightful owner. Any advice on how this could be accomplished would be appreciated.

    If you didn't enable it on your iPod before it was lost you can't.  If you did, you may be able to locate it by going to icloud.com from your computer browser, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f2442.

Then I layed my itouch on my desk, when i came back it was gone, I new someone stole it, PLEASE HELP ME I NEED IT BACK, ITS MY LIFE. It has everything on it. PLZ HELP ME -Alisa Alvarez

    - 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 and school
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

    The serial number will do nothing to help you find it.

  • Mobileme find my iphone/itouch

    Hey everyone, I am new to this forums, but anyways, here is my question: I lost/had my itouch 4 stolen ,on Feb.9 '11. I MAY have lost it a school(can't find it at home), I've already asked ALL my teachers ,and checked lost and found there - a few times ,and it STILL hasn't turned up - yet. Plus, I've contacted the apple store to see if they could help me. But, they say they can't ; they don't have have a way to track it- without find my iphone/itouch - OF COURSE not - they gave me suggestions instead ;I asked about if my free limited warranty qualify me to get a new one (I may have dropped it ,and it may have had minor physical defects on it; but don't remember); OF COURSE, they say I don't qualify (they said it doesn't have any physical defects on it; I tried to tell them I don't know). Any way, I was wondering if I set up my mobileme find my iphone/itouch on my computer /or someone else's idevice could I track /locate my itouch 4 via someone else's idevice (or even my computer by itself)- (I now have it installed on my itunes account,but not before I lost/had my itouch 4 stolen (of course I didn't KNOW this was going to happen!!!!), can ANYONE HELP ME?!

    You have to set up Find My iPhone on MobileMe BEFORE it is lost, at this point there is no way to do so unless you could get access to your Touch and turn Find My iPhone on.
    Doesn't matter what shape your Touch was in, a warranty is NOT insurance and does not cover loss or theft. If you bought a new car and failed to get insurance do you really think Ford will give you a new car under your warranty?
    Hope you reported it to the police, and good luck with getting it back. If it was purchase with a parent's credit card it is possible it was covered under an CC insurance plan, also have them check their homeowner's insurance.

  • HT4623 Is there any way to find a lost iPhone once the phone's battery has expired?

    I have lost my iPhone(4)and the battery is dead. I have the "locate device application", however, I know the battery is dead. To my knowledge, once the battery has expired, it cannot be retrieved using the "lost device/find my device" application.?? Is this correct? If so, is there another way to find this lost iPhone?

    Thanks for taking the time to respond!!
    I didn't think so, but was hoping this was a time, that someone knew something that I didn't.

  • How do I find my lost ipod touch

    I had my ipod before I got on the bus this morning, it was in my pocket. I sat down on the bus, and I didn't take it out of my pocket, there was someone sitting next to me, but she couldn't have taken it out of my pocket because of the way she was sitting. It's not in my backpack, and my bus driver said she looked everywhere on the bus while cleaning it-like she always does. It could have fallen out anywhere on the bus and someone could have taken it. I'm really worried because I had just gotten it and I'm using icloud to track it, but it says its offline. I don't know how it would even connect to wifi because I have a pass code on it. please help.

    Until it goes online you cannot track it.
    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:

  • Any way to find a lost I phone with out the app installed?

    I lost my I phone but do not have the app installed. Is there anyway to find it. It is till on and someone has it because they checked the voice mail. Found this out from checking my att account.

    The app is not necessary to be able to find your lost iPhone. The app only allows tracking of one iPhone from another iPhone via the Find My iPhone service, and would be installed on the device you're doing the tracking from. If you set Find My iPhone up before you lost the iPhone, you can if you're lucky track it from any computer with a web browser.
    If you did not set up the Find My iPhone service, though, before you lost your iPhone, then there's no way to track it.

  • I can't find my lost bookmarks or add new ones

    I can't find my lost bookmarks having upgraded to Firefox 3.6 and when I try to add a bookmark I get a message that the server is busy. I have tried all the options under help.

    [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Lost+Bookmarks]
    AFAIK, Firefox doesn't need to contact a server for anything related to bookmarks, unless you have an addon that modifies standard Firefox behavior or adds features to Firefox.
    I see by your UserAgent that you have the Google Toolbar extension installed, are you using the Google Bookmarks feature?
    Maybe that is your problem, Google bookmarks attempting to "call home"?
    What else do you have installed that might be causing that problem?
    Open up Help > Troubleshooting Information and hit the '''Copy all to clipboard''', then paste that information into the '''''Post a Reply''''' box in this thread.
    That will give us a listing of all you installed addons.

  • How can I find a lost bookmark folder in another bookmark folder? I had a sticky mouse when I moved it.

    How can I find a lost bookmark folder? A folder stuck on my mouse pointer I shook the mouse and it released the folder somewhere in the hundreds of other bookmark folders. I don't want to have to open every folder and search every file to locate it. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Renaldo,
    You might try restoring a backup of your bookmarks.
    1. From the menu at the top of the Firefox window bar, click the Bookmarks menu and choose Organize Bookmarks to open the Library window.
    2. Before proceeding, you should make a backup of your current bookmarks.
    1. From the toolbar on the Library window, select Import and Backup and choose Backup.
    2. Firefox will ask you to save the bookmark backup to a folder on your hard drive. Choose a location that you will remember.
    3. Your current bookmarks have been backed up to the file you selected.
    3. From the toolbar on the Library window, select Import and Backup to open the Import and Backup menu, and pick Restore to see a list of available bookmark backups organized by date.
    4. To restore one of the listed backups, select it from the Restore menu. Choose the newest bookmark backup that was created before the bookmarks were lost. You will lose all changes to your bookmarks that occurred after the date you select.
    '''NOTE:''' To restore a backup that you saved manually, select Choose File from the Restore menu instead of selecting an automatic backup
    5. A confirmation window will appear asking you to confirm replacing your bookmarks with the backup. To replace the bookmarks, press OK. To go back, press Cancel.
    '''NOTE:''' You cannot undo this unless you saved a backup file as instructed above.
    6. Your bookmarks have been restored to the date you selected. If your bookmarks do not show up after completing the restore process, repeat the above steps to restore an earlier backup.
    If the backup follows the bookmark structure then the missing folder should be displayed

  • Finding a Lost iPhone

    I've tried to find my lost iPhone. Checking on iCloud, it says the iphone doesn't have a wi-fi connection. Is there a way to find it via the cellular service?

    If you had Find My iPhone activated on the device and it is not showing up when logging into iCloud, did you contact your carrier and have them suspend the device? If so, you will not be able to locate the device via cellular. If you did not have them suspend it, it should show up if it has a cellular connection, unless the device has been found, powered off, or the SIM removed or the device restored. If any of those have happened, you will not be able to locate the device.
