HT4061 Can you lock out a stolen iPod

My step daughters iPod was stolen and could have possibly been sold to purchase drugs I just want to lock it out so whoever has it can't use it

- 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 to 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

  • Can you 'lock out' a workstation via ZENworks?

    Hi,
    I was wondering if there was a way to 'lock out' a workstation via
    ZENworks so users can no longer log into the workstation temporarily.
    This is the scenario - when someone within our company orders a new
    workstation, they will many times tell us that the workstation is being
    replaced when in reality the old workstation it is replacing is never
    taken off the network.
    The problem? - we do not charge any new license fees for replacement
    workstations PROVIDING the old workstation is disposed of (that way we
    are able to transfer the licenses from the old to the new). If the old
    workstation is still used, we are in violation of license fees.
    Solution? - 'lock out' the old workstation so no one can use it any
    longer unless they call our Helpdesk and it is 'unlocked' at which time
    we remind them of the license charges.
    I am not sure how this can be performed. We currently do something
    similar with NEW XP PCs that have no local user accounts on them yet
    (basically we enable login restrictions under the DLU policy - if the
    workstation can't create a local user account for the user, they can't
    log into the network or the PC). That solution would not work in this
    case though since the local accounts would already be created on the PC.
    We don't want to remove any software from the machine that will need to
    be reinstalled in case the site does want to keep the machine on the
    network after a new one is purchased. The solution should be designed to
    easily enable the machine if the site does decide they want to keep the
    machine on the network. Later on we would FDISK the PC for disposal.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated as ALWAYS!
    Steve

    Perhaps a Workstation Associated app that just pushed an invalid value for the
    GINA.DLL
    Either Remote Regedit or another Force-Run app could restore this to a correct
    value.
    Needs testing to make sure you can fix what you break, but this would lead
    everything intact.

  • Can you lock out the Ipad while it is traveling down the road?

    I would like to put an Ipad in my trucks, but I can't trust the drivers to not use it while they are driving. Is there a way to lock out the Ipad while the vehicle is moving?

    Perhaps a Workstation Associated app that just pushed an invalid value for the
    GINA.DLL
    Either Remote Regedit or another Force-Run app could restore this to a correct
    value.

  • Can you track a lost/stolen ipod touch

    MY ipod touch was lost/stolen. I thought I heard someone say at some point that these devices had something in them that allowed you to "track" where they are. Anyone know anything about this? I really want my baby back!

  • How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?

    How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?

    Hi,
    Here is help for the operating system:
    If you are locked to iOS 3 then you have an iPod Touch 1st Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 4 then you have an iPod Touch 2nd Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 5 then you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 6 then you have an iPod Touch 4th Gen.
    If you can get iOS 7 and have an iPhone 5 sized screen [bigger] you have the current iPod Touch 5th Gen.
    I assume since it says you have iOS 5.1.1 you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
    Also, you may want to sync it so iTunes can tell you or you can look at the model number on the back.
    Hope this helped.

  • I am locked out of my iPod touch and i can't restore it as it asks for my password which i don't know how do i unlock it?

    I am locked out of my iPod and it says i cannot restore or back up due to me needing to unlock it and obviously i don't have my password. Please help, how do i unlock it?

    Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten password:
    Restore (and reset password) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)

    Hi,
    Acrobat xi - RE: Add sound icon- skin displayed is a 'blank white box' until it is clicked to activate it- can you lock skin to display before its activated so that in a print run the skin shows up (ie the controls-or any kind of greyed out rectangle, like video controls before 1st activation) and not the blank white box- if no, I guess I have to activate all sound icons before doing a print run?thanks)).

    Many of your points are totally legitimate.
    This one, however, is not:
    …To put it another way, the design of the site seems to be geared much more towards its regular users than those the site is supposedly trying to "help"…
    The design and management of the forums for more than five years have driven literally dozens of the most valuable contributors and "regulars" away from the forums—permanently.
    The only conclusion a prudent, reasonable person can draw from this state of affairs is that Adobe consciously and deliberately want to kill these forums by attrition—without a the PR hit they would otherwise take if they suddenly just shut them down.
