HT1689 how do you retrieve an ipod that's been stolen but said it's "offline" on the stolen app?

I have lost my ipod and it's been over a month now. I thought that the stolen lost my ipod/iphone app would help me but all it said was it's offline. I'm almost positive someone didn't steal it but it's misplaced. Do you have any ideas???

Unless it is online connected to the Internet it cannot be located.

  • TS1363 how do you unlock an Ipod that is disabled?

    how do you unlock an Ipod that is disabled?

    If the iPod is showing the 'disabled' screen due to too many failed passcode attempts then you will need to connect the iPod to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPod and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPod into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If you do it via a different computer then :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

  • HT1689 How can I retrieve/change iPOD password after not using it for a year and not remembering it? (Actual device, not Apple ID)

    Been in Afghanistan for the past year, can't remember the password I put on the iPOD touch before I left.  Tried all I thought it could be.  Does anyone know how I can retrieve the password?  Or, who I can contact to unlock it so I can either use the old one or change it if they can't figure out what it was?  Thanks.

    He meant, do you have a system backup via Time Machine, Carbon Copy Cloner, etc.?  That's the shortest way to restore your complete system and data when (not if) your hard drive dies.
