This is a user-to-user technical support forum. You cannot communicate with Apple in this forum. But to answer your question, Apple cannot track a phone for you. Only you can track it, and only if Find my iPhone was enabled on it, and only them if it is powered on and connected to a cellular or WiFi network.

Recently my iPod touch 4th gen. was stolen. I have had it for two years, so I don't have a warranty on it anymore. I reported it to the police, but what will apple do? This one kid reported to them that his was stolen and they gave him a new one. Will they do the same for me? Is there any other way I can get all my pictures from my iPod without iCloud set up? Would Apple be able to lock up my iPod so they cant use it at all? Please help me, thanks (:

Nothing... why would they do anything?
Apple does not provide insurance and they are not law enforcement. -
The pc that I used to download CD music to into my itunes library was stolen and I had no backup. I have all my itunes music on my iphone and ipod. can i have music from music from my iphone or ipod transferred to my mac computer through itunes?
I have a similar problem. I recieved an IPAD for my birthday, and my daughter updated my itunes library so i can use it with the ipad...and somehow all my songs (unpurchased from itunes, and downloaded from a large collection of CDs) ...and play lists were deleted. I still have them on my old ipod, and wonder how to get them back onto my computer so I can redistribute some of them to the ipad. I must be getting too old for this tech stuff, it gets less user friendly every year.

As provided, you can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception. They are under no obligation to allow this, but you can try:

How can I retreive my wallpaper image? It is not in my photos. I deleted it from my iphone because i had a copy on my desktop. Then my desktop was stolen and now the only image i have is on the iphone wallpaper.
My problem is the backup is lost too, because the computer that contain the backup was lost with the original photo. It seems to me that the image is stored on the phone in some type of memory. I'm willing to destroy the phone in order to retrieve the image. Any thoughts on where or how the wallpaper is stored on the phone itself?

Hello Apple Support,
My iPhone 5 has been stolen and I want to lock the device totally.
My Apple ID is **********Stolen Device Serial Number: DN*******TWD
Stolen Device EMEI: *********.
<Edited by Host>Sorry if my English isn't correct because of I'm Italian.
You must switch on the lost mode on the app " Find my iPhone ".
If you can see it on the map of this app, you will know where is your iPhone in that moment.
REMEMBER: you can see your iPhone on the map of " Find my iPhone" only if it is online. Indeed you can't see your iPhone if it's offlined or switched of. -
HT4993 my phone was stolen and i had 5gig backed up on icloud and i cannot pull it up
My phone was stolen and I had 5gigs backed up on icloud and I cannot retrieve it.
An iCloud backup is not viewable at iCloud.com, & cannot be saved to a computer. An iCloud backup can only be restored to another iOS device to retrieve any data.

My iPod Classic was stolen and returned to me by police but now it "cannot be synced because it cannot be written to or read from". I noticed the thief had changed the format to "windows" but I have restored it and still get the same message.
If the media is in the library then yes it is that simple. Connect the device, load it up with your media. The problem is when you try to connect a full device to a new empty library on a new computer when iTunes will offer to replace the content on the device with that in the local library, i.e. nothing! (For anyone in that position see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device).
You should be able to add your devices at https://supportprofile.apple.com/ though I'm not sure what happens if the second hand iPod was previously registered.

How can you prevent a hacker from bypassing your iphone passcode? My phone was stolen and someone hacked in and has access to everything on my phone and turned off "find my iphone." This is exactly what I wanted to prevent from happening and the reason why I had a passcode.
Turn on "Erase Data" in Settings>Passcode. That will wipe the data after 10 incorrect password attempts.
Turn off "Simple Passcode" in the same place and use something other than a 4 digit pin as your passcode.
Also make sure Find my iPhone is enabled so you can locate and if necessary, forcibly wipe the phone. -
Hello, my Ipad was stolen about a week ago, I activated the "find my iPhone" app, however it says my Ipad is offline since the day it was stolen, does anyone know…:
1. Is there another way I can track its location, or more importantly have the information stored on my Ipad erased ASAP?
2. Taking into consideration I blocked the iPad using the find my iPhone app, is there anyway the iPad can be used? Can someone erase all the data, my itunes account, reset all settings etc.? before connecting online?
3. How can I recover my photos? I already signed in to icloud on my PC and I have no "Photo" icon, does this mean that they are lost?
Thank you!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:

my house had a break-in, laptop was stolen and the thief is connected now to my skype!
how can i get the IP address, isn't there some option like in gmail i can see who besides me is connected to the account right now?I think you can consider reporting this matter to your local police. Then they can contact Skype to request for possible information or assistance. Skype will only provide sensitive information such us user's IP address to the proper law enforcement bodies.
