Is there a way to set up mobile me without the device in hand

I bought my daughter an ipod touch, and of course too little too late, I found out mobile me needed to be setup to find it, and it is lost Was wondering if there was a way to locate the device without out the app, or if anyone knew another way??? Thank you very much for your help.

No.  You have to set it up on the device.  Note that even with it set up, it will only work if:
a) The iPod is on or in sleep mode;
b) wi-fi is turned on;
c) the iPod is in range of a unsecured wi-fi source, or one that the device can otherwise connect to automatically (this is great if you lost it in your house somewhere); and
d) the finder has not restored the device to factory settings
Therefore, there is a very good chance that setting up mobile.me would actually help in locating to lost iPod.

  • Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view

    When my Finder windows open in column view, all the columns are always VERY wide. I have to then spend time resizing them to a managable width. Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view?

    No, because you can't set a columns view default.

  • Is there a way to save photos from lightroom without the original file?

    I recently imported photos into lightroom, but I failed to save the original files on my computer and they are deleted from my card.  The pictures are still showing up in lightroom.  Is there a way to save them from lightroom without the original file?

    Your images aren't - and never were - in Lightroom, they're just referenced in Lightroom's database.
    Lightroom does generate jpeg previews of the originals though, and you can export those using Rob Cole's Preview Exporter plugin: robcole.com - PreviewExporter.
    To be clear though, these aren't the originals.

    Sorry my error. It only shows the computer name not the serial number. Go with "themachead" response copied below:
    In your Apple ID - Profiles:My Products if you filled it out. Not only that you might be able to, via Apple ID & iCloud sign up/in and activate find my Mac. If you have not activated iCloud you can do that too.

  • Is there any way I can use bi beans without the patches

    I am a Chinese student,I am doing some research on OLAP.
    I'm in the initial stages of evaluating BI Beans for my research. We have previously not used Oracle in house.
    In attempting to use BI Beans, the first thing you must do is install the latest patches against the Oracle database. Unfortunately, the patches are only available for people with a suport contract.
    Is there any way I can get these patches without a support contract, or is there any way I can use bi beans without the patches?
    thanks alot,

    You must have a valid support contract to access Metalink. You could try contacting your local support centre and ask if they could make the patches available to you.

    Message to your friend: I though you would find this

  • Is there a way to restore missing lightroom files without the original files?

    I am currently trying to reedit some old work, unfortunately, I lost the memory card with all the original files, is there a way I can restore the files in LR without the originals? I figure since the program still has some of the data and can show us a preview of the images, there should be a way around this.

    I assume you copied the original memory card files to HDD during import into LR. Did you later move the files or the containing folder to another location from outside LR and now they are missing?

  • Is there any way to get spanish language movies without the stupid "always on" english subtitles

    I am losing my mind trying to figure out a way to buy movies through iTunes, in the original language, WITHOUT forced english subtitels.  Please help!

    If the films don't have Japanese as a language option on them then you can try requesting that they be added to your country's iTunes store, but Apple will only be able to sell them there if the rights-holder grants them a license to do so : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • Is there any way to set a stealth  mode on the ports in Panther

    The built-in firewall in Tiger provides a 'Stealth Mode' setting that makes the ports nonresponsive to external attempts to connect. The Panther firewall doesn't have this capability. Does anyone know of a way to enable this on a Panther machine (specifically 10.3.5 & 10.3.6) - even if it involves installing a utility application is ok.

    Ok, question for Karl.
    When I go to https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2
    and do the ShieldsUP Stealth test from outside my hardware firewall connected directly to the internet (SSH turned off for the test) why do I get this result?:
    GRC Port Authority Report created on UTC: 2006-09-25 at 06:03:43
    Results from scan of ports: 0, 21-23, 25, 79, 80, 110, 113,

    26 Ports Stealth
    26 Ports Tested
    ALL PORTS tested were found to be: STEALTH
    Specifically ftp reports this:
    21
    FTP
    Stealth There is NO EVIDENCE WHATSOEVER that a port (or even any computer) exists at this IP address!
    The only thing that fails is the PING test. Because they can ping my address. I don't have firewall turned on and I am running 10.3.9 not 10.4.
    Any ideas? Is this test just not thourough enough?
    Run the test for yourself and see. You will need to click Proceed at the bottom of the page to start the test.

  • Is there a way to set two different settings for the backlight?

    I was wondering if there is a way for me to set the backlight to always on when watching videos on my 5G 30 gig iPod and off when doing anything else?
    Or do I have to manually go in and change the setting everytime?

    The backlight will always be on when watching videos. This is automatic, regardless of the setting.
