HT5824 In error i erased ipod on the 'find my ipod' app!

How can I restore my iPod back on? I'm so upset by this!!!
I had brought a new iPhone so I now wanted 'find my iPhone' to find my new phone not the old iPod. So when it said erase I thought it was going to erase iPod details not ALL stuff on the phone!!! It may seem obvious to some but if your not IT expert you just bumble along!! Apple should make it much clearer for those of us who are 'thick!'!!. I feel so stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway I now have an empty iPod with all my details on that now I wont be able to transfer to my new phone - so peeed off by this!
I cant even find the 'restore page' either!
I find ITunes site really difficult to navigate!
and for some strange reason for some days now the iPod is really hard to charge... in fact even with a new cable right now in the midst of this happening i cant even move on.. because it wont charge!! Has Apple switched iPod 4th gen off?????
HELP PLEASE

From iCloud: Erase your device
If you erase then find your iOS device, you can restore the information on the device using iCloud Backup (if backup was turned on before you erased it) or iTunes. For more information, see iCloud storage and backup overview, or the Safety, Handling & Support section of the iOS 8 user guide for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. If your device has iOS 7 or earlier, get the user guide from the Apple Support website.
From iPod touch > "Restore iPod Touch"< http://help.apple.com/ipod-touch/8/#/iph1624229a >
Restore iPod touch
You can use iCloud or iTunes to restore iPod touch from a backup.
Restore from an iCloud backup. Reset iPod touch to erase all content and settings, then choose “Restore from a Backup” and sign in to iCloud in the Setup Assistant. See Restart or reset iPod touch.
Restore from an iTunes backup. Connect iPod touch to the computer you normally sync with, select iPod touch in the iTunes window, then click Restore in the Summary pane.
When the iPod touch software is restored, you can either set it up as a new iPod touch, or restore your music, videos, app data, and other content from a backup.
For more information about restoring iPod touch software, see support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.

How can I turn my ipod on remotely so that I can use the Find my Iphone app (sound mode) to find it

I have a ipod 5 gen and I lost it somewhere around the house. I've used the Find My Iphone app, but it indicates that its offline. So I'm guessing it ran out of battey or its turned off. That's why I am asking if theres anyway that I could turn my ipod back on in order for the sound to be played from FMI app. Thanks alot for any future help.

You can't, When off it is dead
- 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.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

TS4006 is it possible to get the find my iphone app on my ipod touch?

My iphone just got stolen and i cant access the find my iphone app because i only have the ipod touch, what do i do?

I do not believe there's an app for that on PC. I do recommend getting the iCloud dashboard for PC and to try it there. I would myself if my PC was working.
PC ***** get a Mac.
You can always go to iCloud.com to find your phone.

My ipod was stolen and its not showing up on the find my iphone app... how else can I find it?

Ive tried multiple ways of finding my ipod. The find my iphone app is not even showing my ipod. Not sure if there is any other ways to find it??? I have the serial number and all info for the ipod. Help!

Assuming you had Find My iPhone enabled in the iCloud settings of the device, it will show only if it has a connection to the internet.

Is it possible to cancel a remote erase command set in the Find my iPhone app?

I have recently been reunited with my 17" MacBook Pro by the police after it was lost.
To cut a long story short I initiated the "erase mac" element as I thought I wouldnt be seeing my MacBook again.
Sooooo........... now having the computer in my possession again, I d like to know if there is anyway that I can either:
     1. Stop the erase command from initiating?
or
     2. Recover the relatively small amount of information that has not been backed up (due to travelling) possibly by
          turning my network connection off and taking off before connecting to the internet again?
I ve contacted Apple Support and they have advised that (1) is not possible as far as they (the operator spoken with)
are concerned, but (2) was a very good question that they have had no training on or information available about.
As such, thought I would ask the Guru's here to see what are the possibilities, or have I just got to bite the bullet and
accept the losses?
I wondered if the erase command can be sent via an unauthorised network connection such as when wifi looks up what
networks are available??
I ve not turned the MBP on since getting it back and am assuming, as there is no notification from the Find my iPhone app
that it has been located that way, that it has not had network access if it has been turned on at any time since I activated
the locate and erase facility.
Many thanks for you kind attention and hopefully positive response.   :-)
Kind regards
Bob

There is one way you can try... it should work in theory. It's called Target Disk Mode. What this does is that you have to connect your computer to another Mac and your computer will show up on the other Mac as an external hard drive. You can then transfer everything to the other Mac.
Here is where its going to get complicated. You would need another Mac. Since you said your MacBook Pro is a 17" then you still have the old FireWire ports. You need to find out what kind of FireWire port it is (400 or 800). Get a FireWire cable (it's going to be hard nowadays but try Amazon, eBay, Newegg). You might need a FireWire to Thunderbolt converter is the other Mac only has Thunderbolt ports.
Once you plugged the computers in with the right cable. Turn the other computer on first then turn yours on with the "T" key down. That will enable Target Disk Mode. (http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10725)

I had the "find my iphone" app and deleted it and then my ipod was stolen. can my ipod still be located ?

Apple will not track it for you unless with Find my iPod. Again, whether you have the app or not doesn't matter, I believe you still had the service enabled. It doesn't hurt to try. http://icloud.com, click Find my iPhone after you sign in.

I accidentally erased my phone while using the Find my Iphone app

I accidentally erased my phone while using the Find my Iphone app. Now im trying to unlock it as my phone is also sim locked but this is the message that comes up :
"Your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting Your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes."
This keeps repeating and there doesnàt seem to be anz alternative as iTunes isnàt letting me connect either.

Police don't "track down" lost items, per se. They'll keep your information on file in the event that someone finds your iPod and turns it in. Otherwise, there's nothing the police can or will do in regards to finding lost property.
Sorry, but your iPod is most likely gone for good.

Can the Find My iPhone app use a serial number to locate lost iPod Touch 4g

I lost my iPod Touch 4g and want to find with the Find my iPhone app. I'm using my brother's iPhone 4s to locate it. Can I use a serial number to locate. I lost it in school (in the Administrations office) so I know it won't be stolen. I had them search the whole building and found nothing. My school has Wi-Fi. I got the serial number from iTunes back up.

The find my iDevice works through iCloud. What you needed to have done before it went missing was setup an iCloud account on the device, then enable the find my device slider setting to "ON" under that account's settings.
If you did not do that, it is not trackable.
There is no way to track it by serial number.
Also, in order to be trackable it has to be powered on and connected to a data connection. A wifi-only device like an iPod Touch powers off the wifi radio when running on the battery, so if it has gone into sleep mode, it would not be trackable until or unless woken up by someone so it could re-acquire a data connection with a wifi network.

I don't have the find my iphone app and i lost my ipod touch what do i do

I don't have the find my iphone app and i lost my ipod touch somwhere in my house. is there any way to get it back like call apple or something?

If the device has been connected to your computer and a backup was saved, open the itunes program and click edit>preferences>devices
This will show the date and time of the last backup you created, hover the cursor over the backup and it will show your serial number.
If you have the original box you can find it on the back also.

24 hours after setting the erase button on the Find My iPhone option in iCloud the phone was still not erased. Does this function work in a timely fashion?

No. It functions when connected to the Internet.

Hello, my Ipad was stolen about a week ago, I activated the "find my iPhone" app, however it says my Ipad is offline since the day it was stolen, so does anyone know:

Hello, my Ipad was stolen about a week ago, I activated the "find my iPhone" app, however it says my Ipad is offline since the day it was stolen, does anyone know…:
1. Is there another way I can track its location, or more importantly have the information stored on my Ipad erased ASAP?
2. Taking into consideration I blocked the iPad using the find my iPhone app, is there anyway the iPad can be used? Can someone erase all the data, my itunes account, reset all settings etc.? before connecting online?
3. How can I recover my photos? I already signed in to icloud on my PC and I have no "Photo" icon, does this mean that they are lost?
Thank you!

What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen
iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
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.

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:
