How to find my iPod touch after it got stolen

My 5th generation iPod touch has been stolen and it's brand new and I need help finding it.

What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
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:
This link, Re: Help! I misplaced / lost my iPhone 5 today morning in delta Chelsea hotel downtown an I am not able to track it. Please help!, has some good advice regarding your options when your iDevice is lost or stolen.

  • How to track an ipod touch after it is stolen?

    Hi; my sister had an ipod touch stolen at a school from her son. She informed law enforcement and apple. Apple states: they cannot track the device. All devices have a MAC address assigned to them. The moment someone tries to re-register the device; it will show up in itunes as belonging to another owner. I dont think Itunes will allow the device to operate and I firmly believe Apple  would certainly report the device to local law enforcement. Its bad business to not do so. Not to mention the warrants served on the Itunes server. Last thing the public needs is Law enforcement looking around just because Apple is not cooperating. So if they cannot track it; Do they actually report it?

    Apple is not the police.  A car company does not tract stolen cars.
    Apple specificaly states:
    "Apple does not have a process to track or flag lost or stolen product,"
    From:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2526
    If you had already set up the FindMyiPod feature and wifi is on then you may be able to tract the iPod but all the persion has to do is place the iPod in recovery mode to erase/disable the feature.

  • How can I find my iPod touch if it got stolen?

    Hey I got my iPod stolen, any way how to get it back?

    Look for it.
    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.

  • Anyone have any suggestions on how to find an iPod touch when it's location is off?

    Anyone have any suggestions on how to find an iPod ouch when it's location is turned off?

    Unfortunatley, with location turned off it is impossible to locate it. Also if your IPod is dead or is not connected to wifi it will not give its location.
    My best reccomondation is refering to this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2526
    Good Luck!

  • How would I find my ipod touch after remote wiping?

    I lost my ipod and someone stole it at my work I know for fact because it connected to the internet. It wiped but now just figured out I can't locate it, is there a way I can find it? im positive the wipe wont clear out my ipod the person will obviously delete everything and will completely see everyting i had on it. really personal stuff and will ruin my reputation. when seeing it, i learned my lesson.

    If you wiped your iPod or if the person restored the iPod, the iPod will be completely erased, including the ability for you to locate or do anything to the iPod remotely.  The only way to find your iPod is the old fashioned way, like if you lost your wallet.
    The serial number will only identify the iPod as yours if it is recovered.
    Apple will not help

  • How to sync an iPod Touch after replacing the hard drive

    Hello,
    The hard drive on my second MacBook Pro failed, so we had a new one fitted.
    I recovered most of the data using Data Rescue, so I can grab the music files, photos, Pages files, etc.
    However I can't get the User data from the damaged drive, nor any of the software programs and serial numbers so I'm effectively starting again with just the software that comes with a 'new' Mac.
    The Apple ID on the iPod Touch is very similar to [email protected]
    When I launched iTunes for the first time on the MacBook Pro I entered that email address, but it seemed like a new account was started (?).
    I connected the iPod Touch to the MacBook Pro.
    The message I got was...
    "The iPod "Toby's iPod Touch" is synced with another itUnes library. Do you want to erase this iPod and sync with this iTunes library?"
    I clicked Cancel.
    What do I need to do to get iTunes to recognise this iPod Touch so it finds all the apps we bought for it?
    I have a funny feeling that we are logged in as [email protected] in iTunes, but this isn't the same account as the Apple ID of [email protected] on the iPod Touch. Or have I misunderstood something?
    Extra info: I think this computer was working with a User name of Chris Payne, but since it's had a new internal drive we've only set up an account called Toby Payne.
    I'd appreciate your help! Thank you!

    ""The iPod "Toby's iPod Touch" is synced with another itUnes library. Do you want to erase this iPod and sync with this iTunes library?""
    This is correct. There is no way around this. The ipod touch will sync with one and only one computer/library at a time. If you sync to another, it will indeed erase the current content and replace with the content from the new drive/library.
    You can transfer itunes purchases ( including apps) from the ipod. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases

  • How to find my ipod touch lost in the house

    I know it was lost in the house. Does anyone know how to find it?

    If you set up Find My iPhone on your iPod, go to www.icloud.com.  It will allow you to send a command to your iPod which will play a tone for at least a minute to help you find the iPod.  If not, perhaps you set up Skype or Facetime or iMessage.  In that case try calling or texting your iPod, you should get a ringtone.  In all these cases make sure your wi-fi router is on.  Also this will not work if you turned off the wi-ifi on your iPod or if you turned it off completely.
