HT1391 Is there a way apple can block an iPod if it's been lost or stolen? It's not connected to iCloud
Is there a way apple can block an iPod when it's not connected to iCloud? If I unregistered it would it wipe the iPod of my details? As my sisters iPod got stolen and is all linked to my account.
No, unless Find My iPod was enabled on it before it was stolen then there isn't any way for you to try and locate and/or remotely wipe it - and that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPod disabled on it.
If it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

So someone has stollen my iPhone and I've been told that if I contact Apple and I give them some details about my iPhone that are within the box when I bought they should be able to block the whole phone so it's completely unfunctional ever again. It has been missing for two months, they switched it off because I cannot find it on "Find my iPhone" app, so if I can block it I would happily do so because I bought it free (no contract) and it cost me a lot of money.
The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone. -
Is there any way I can block the ipod that somebody stole from me?
Two days ago, somebody broke my frind's car lock and they stole everything was in there, icluding my ipod, I just wanna know if there any possibility to at least block that ipod so they can't use it anymore.
- 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.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order

NO apple can't block it.

How can I recover a iMessage that was deleted and if not is there a way apple can send me email of all my iMessages in past month
Hi Toniann,
If you have a recent iCloud backup that was done when that message was on the devcie, you can restore from that backup.
No, Apple does not keep your messages, no do they have access to them. That would be a serious invasion of privacy, don't you think?

Unfortunately I have deleted my entire itunes library and back up from my computer, is there any way I can copy my ipod nano back onto my computer into the itunes library? and re-download all the tunes I have purchased from I tunes.
Hello bigali,
Your options are kinda limited. I would use this first:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and ...
Then check here for the non-purchased items:

You want to rebuild the library first, then sync the ipod.
Here is a good idea for when your done:

Is there any way i can track my ipod?
IF you set up find my ipod on teh ipod BEFORE it was lost AND it is on AND it is conected to wi-fi AND it has not been found and restored, then you may be able to get an approximate street address using icloud.
Otherwise, you cannot track it. -

HT204060 Is there a way I can unlock my iPod Touch that has a broken screen?
My iPod Touch, 4th Gen. iPod's screen broke and I need to access all the music and photos I have on it. But I received a new computer so it doesn't recognize my iPod and my iPod is locked. Since I still know the password, is there a way I can unlock it without restoring it or anything?
No since that is part of the screen lock security feature.
