Is it possible to locate my stolen iPhone with the Serial Number?

2 days ago I lost my iPhone 3GS- 16GB in school. I have the serial number. So would it be possible to locate the person if he/she registers on Itunes with my iphone?

I am trying to return a lost verizon iphone- I found it in a cab on 2/2/2012 in NYC. I called verizon, but they didn't care. Before I turn it into the abyss known as the NYC lost and found (I looked up how it works, doesnt seem very good) I am trying to locate the person by posting on craigslist, itaxinyc and here. Shockingly, people have responded, but none of them have been the right person. If you think you are this person send an email to lost- iphone-nyc   at    hotmail so I can give you my contact info Please describe the picture on the screen and the case in detail or I will not respond to 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. 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.

  • It is possible to know my UDID only with the serial number of my device and without the device?

    Hello, I would want to know if is possible to know my UDID only with the serial number of my old device and without the device. I sent my old device there was a few months and they can't repare it, so they pay me back with a voucher and I bought a new one (iPod Touch 4g 8GO). I have to know the UDID of my old device to transfer all of my game to my new device (all the data for not to start all the games again) BUT I just had only the serial number.
    Someone can help me please? Thanks
    (P.S.: Sorry if there are mistakes in english, I'm french )

  • Can you locate your iTouch 5 with the serial number?

    Can you locate your iTouch by just the serial number?

    No. It will only help identify your iPod if it is recovered.
    - 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 unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order

  • I lost my iPhone 5 and iCloud or find my iPhone isn't on is there any way I can track my iPhone with the serial number or is there any other way ? iCloud or Find My iPhone wasn't installed or on please help

    I lost my Black iPhone 5, 2 days ago. Someone stole it. Find my iPhone app wasn't installed, it's not on. Is there any way I can turn on "Find my IPhone" on my phone from my computer or can I track it with the serial number ? Please help.

    I guess no but they can't use it because most likely they restored it and the name of your find my iphone will disappear on your computer even if it is on because it does not have your name anymore.

    You can't. Period.

  • Is there a way to find a stolen ipod with the serial number?

    a few days ago my ipod touch 4th gen was stolen and i was wondering if there was a way to track it using the serial number?

    "yeah but there is still a way that you may track a phone"
    Yes.  GPS and Cell tower triangulation.  They also appeared in front of congress to answer for doing this.  And they will NOT track a lost iphone either.
    " i dont see why they cannot use the same thing to find an ipod "
    They will not track a lost iphone either, for the same reason.
    "hey could use the wifi to track the serial number"
    No they cannot for the reason provided.  Privacy law violations among other things.
    You could have used the find my ipod app to do this.  Apple cannot, just as no other manufacturer of devices will do it.
    Sorry.

  • My iphone 3gs has been stolen, is there a way to have it jammed next time they plug it in to a computer, with the serial number. or can l track it some way...

    is there a way, that l can jam or locate a stolen 3gs iphone with the serial number. or is there another way, so it jams when connects to the internet.

    If you didn't set up Find My iPhone prior to losing it, then there is absolutely nothing that you can do with it now.
    You could have a friend call or text it and try to reason with whoever has it.

  • Will apple be able to locate my stolen phone using my serial number?

    Will apple be able to locate my stolen phone using my serial number?

    No. Apple does not locate stolen iPhones. Report the theft to your wireless
    provider and local law enforcement. Change your passwords.
    Did you not have Find My iPhone activated? If yes, go to iCloud.com and
    log into your account. If your iPhone is powered on and has internet connectivity,
    you will be able to see its location; otherwise, you have to search for it
    physically.
