Help! ipod nano stolen, can i recover my serial number?

My car was vandalized and the police are inquiring about the serial number of my nano. is there a way i can retrieve this off of itunes?
thanks for your help
chris

I think in small thefts such as yours, the police take your information and just file it away. On the small chance they bust someone with a bunch of electronic items, they might use your serial number to prove the theft in court.
However, the chance of you getting your ipod back are better than winning the Lotto, but not by much.
Sorry to hear about your misfortune. My rule is to NEVER leave any electronic gear in a parked car if I can help 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:

    Check the serial number (located on back/bottom) in this lost/stolen iPad database. However, most owners are not aware of this database and don’t enter the serial number.
    Stolen iPad Database
    http://www.stolenlostfound.org/online-stolen-ipad-database
    Also do a search, using the serial number, on your local Craig’s List. Some users list the serial number of a stolen iPad to thwart the sale of a stolen device.

  • Stolen ipod touch how can i find my serial number

    My Ipod was stolen. How can I get my serial number? Is it saved somewhere in my apple account?

    On your iPod packaging
    If you still have the original packaging for your iPod, you can find your serial number on the barcode label that is affixed to the packaging.
    On your iPod invoice or receipt
    Some retailers may include the serial number of your iPod on the receipt.
    Online at My Support Profile
    If you used your Apple ID to register or purchase your iPod, you may find the serial number listed in My Support Profile (available in the United States and Canada). Log in with your Apple ID and find your iPod in the "My Products" box on the main page:
    Note: You may have more than one Apple ID and not realize it. For more information, visit My Apple ID and click "Find out."

    If you have a backup of your iPod listed in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, hover over it with the mouse pointer, the serial number will come up in a small window.

  • OK - my iPod is stolen and I need the serial number

    I posted earlier how I had lost my iPod touch ( it was actually taken from where I had misplaced it....BESIDE A CHURCH)
    Anyways, I have called the police but they want my device's serial number. Is this stored anywhere in iColud, the iTunes store or iTunes itself?
    Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    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.
    Hope the police can find your iPod, though as I'm sure you know, the chances are slim. Good luck.
    Regards.

  • If my ipod was stolen and I have the serial number, can I find out what itunes library it is synched with?

    I just came a across the serial number of my ipod that was stolen at the end of last year and am hoping to figure out what itunes account it is synched to now (or if I can for that matter). Any advice helps!

    No, you can't get any  such information from a serial number.

  • My ipod was stolen and i need the serial number to denounce, but i dont have anything how i can get the number?

    If your iPod was the last device that you connected to and synced with your iTunes library, there is a chance you might be able to get the serial # to show up in the Device Connectivity diagnostic report. See here for instructions on running this test.
    iTunes for Windows: Device Connectivity Tests
    If you have previously registered the device with Apple, you can view it's serial # in your list of devices you have registered under your Apple ID.

  • Can I recover the serial number of an iPod touch that I was maintaining on my Mac, but no longer have?

  • IPod Nano (2G) - any way to track serial number?

    I know this has been asked in a few different ways but here is my take...
    My son's iPod nano is missing. We think we know who stole it but I cannot locate my receipt or the case it came in so I cannot locate the serial number. As with all Apple items I have purchased, I did register it with Apple and have all of the apple accounts, etc... Is there a location in iTunes or through Apple where iPods registered to me are listed? I have been searching and searching to no avail. I gotta find this serial number.
    Before anyone lectures me... I know, I know... keep track of your stuff. There are some extenuating circumstances here... Just looking for some HELP !

    There is a [email protected] email address I found that you could ask them if they could send you the serials. Although, being a not-secure method, I doubt they would just send them out. But it might get a dialog started by which you can get the information. Maybe if you sent them the other serial numbers to compare against, they could send you the one you are missing.
    Good luck. I googled finding registered products and it looks like there used to be a way via the Apple website, but it is no longer possible.

  • I know who stole my ipod. How can I use the serial number to get my ipod back?

    I know who stole my ipod. It's in my ex-friends house. I want to get it back, but I think the tracking number will only be useful to prove it's mine once I get my hands on it.
    Any other options or ideas?

    Contact the police and give them the serial number.

  • Lost my ipod nano.  How can i get the Serial Number from apple?

    Hello franciscor,
    Sadly, there isn't much else Apple can do for you in this situation. However, I can tell you that there are a few other methods that can be used to retrieve your iPod's serial number other than from off the unit itself. Check out this Apple support document for more information. Hope it helps.
