Get stolen ipod serial number from uniqueIdentifier

Hello,
I was wondering if there is any way to get the serial number for a stolen ipod Touch using the unique identifier?  I registered the iPod with my developer account and have the unique identifier, but I don't have the serial number.  It's been a while since it's been stolen (about a year), but I wanted to revive the search.  Any help would be appreciated.  Oh, Organizer in XCode no longer has the device listed.

No, no.  I am not snooping on anyone.  Well, if I could snoop on the person that stole my iPod and report them to the police .... I would certainly do that. 
I know the several ways to get that information when you have the device in your hand.  I guess I am looking for a way to get it that is not so obvious.  Like, is there a file of all synced devices that iTunes keeps (or Xcode)?  If the unique identifier is a combination of hardware configuration and serial number .... is there a way to back track that to get the serial number?  Is there any usefulness to having the unique identifier and not the serial number as to tracking the ipod to get it back or report the thief?
I have certainly learned my lesson with just saving the boxes and hoping that I can find them again later (if I need the serial number).  From now on I keep a digital backup of all that information.

  • Does anyone know how to retrieve an ipod serial number from your computer or via any other means

    I have I believe a 5th gen Ipod the older ones 30gb white with video...It was stolen and I have no record of the serial number which I need to include on the police report.. Apple could not help me...is there a way to retrieve it from my computer since I have used ipod with Itunes.

    Run an iTunes device connectivity test.  Near the end of the report there should be a field indicating the last iPod that was synced with that particular iTunes library.  It will include the serial # of the device.  So if you have already synced another device since then, I'm afraid you are out of luck.
    See here for instructions on running a device connectivity test.

  • Myth of stolen iPod serial number database?

    I had my 4G iPod mini stolen today and I was told that there is some Web site where you can "register" an iPod as stolen and if someone plugs in your stolen iPod, iTunes will know about it, somehow.
    Is this at all true? I've been looking online and it seems that other people have had this idea, but it seems like just a myth. Is there an outside source that does this?
    Thanks for the info.

    Jennifer,
    While the theory of iTunes being able to track a stolen iPod is a myth, there is http://lostipods.com. I can't comment on it's effectiveness or legitimacy, as I only skimmed around it, but you might have a look around it.

    My iPod touch was stolen. Can I get the serial number from my iTunes account?

    See the end of:
    - 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
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • If my ipod was stolen can i get my serial number from apple?

    how would i get my serial number through apple store if it was stolen today? i need it ASAP beause im in school and the day ends at 1:45...someone help me please

    I don't believe you can get your serial number from Apple since they have know way of knowing that you are indeed you, but you can call Apple tech support at 1-800-275-2273 (if you have a cellphone or can make an 800 call from school) and ask.
    Otherwise, if you have access to a computer to which you synced the iPod, or someone you can call does, you can find the serial number in iTunes on that computer. See:

  • HT1349 My Ipad was stolen, How can I get the serial Number from Apple. It was registered with them

    I had  2 Ipads, a mac book pro and a Mac Air stolen 2 weeks ago
    I am trying to locate one of the serial numbers, but cant find the last box.  Can I get the serial number from Apple. It was registered and now it is not showing up as one of my products.
    Thanks

    The easiest way to find your serial number is this Open Itunes...click help... run diagnostics.....(tick or untick as necessary) so that you just have ticked the last two,  device connectivity and device sync.  run these tests. it will say no ipod/ipad found but will give results of test....scroll down to bottom of results... here you will find the serial number of your last attached devices.

  • Can i get my serial number from itunes without connecting my ipod?

    cani i get my serial number from itunes without connecting my ipod?

    Yes, but first you have to make a hat out of aluminum foil, sacrifice 2 pounds of red jelly beans to the serial number god, run around the block three times on one leg while chanting OH Wa Ta Goo Siam.   When you get back home the serial number will be written on a piece of paper inside a mayonaise jar that is buried exactly 49.475 feet NNW of the southeast corner of your house...  But don't tell anyone I told you this....
    Now where's my hat....

  • Stolen ipad 4. How can i get my serial number from Apple?HELP!!

    My Apple iPad 4 was stolen i do not have the box anymore because when i bought it i was living as an aupair in the USA so on my return after that about 2 months ago my iPad got stolen i never wrote the serial number down did email it to my father though but he lost that email. PLEASE HELP! how can i find my serial number from Apple, they surely should have my serail number on my apple ID???

    It seems it was never registered to your Apple ID.
    Do you have an iTunes backup of the iPad?
    Open iTunes.
    Open Preferences. (In Mac OS X, choose iTunes > Preferences. In Windows, choose Edit > Preferences.)
    Click the Devices tab.
    Position the mouse over a backup to display the serial number of the backed-up device. iPhone and cellular iPad models also display the IMEI/MEID and Cellular Data Number:

  • My iPad was stolen in brazil.  i cannot get the manufacturer id number from my iPhone or my macbook air....they are all linked together though.  any suggestions on how and if i can possibly retrieve this and thus locate the device? thanks julie

    Launch iTunes, go to the Preferences, select Devices, and hover your cursor over the backup file for the iPod. That should show you the serial number, IMEI, and possibly the MEID.
    The manufacturer ID will not help you locate the iPad, though. If you set up the Find My iPad service in the Settings prior to the iPad going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPad is turned on, connected to a WiFi or 3G network, and has not had the Find My iPad service disabled or the iPad been completely restored). 
    If you did not set up Find My iPad, then there is no way to track it. Contact the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPad (the iTunes Store, for instance). 
    Regards.
