Is there a way to track a missing ipod touch

How can I track my daughters missing ipod touch

Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • Is there a way to track a lost iPod touch?

    I recently lost my iPod touch.  Is there a way of tracking it down?

    I have a feeling that I did not lose it at home, so it would not have an internet connection, so it would not help me.  If I change my Apple ID passwords here, will that at least lock it out of my account so that someone cannot access it?

  • Is there any way to track a stolen ipod touch?

    I know there is a GPS system in the ipod touch, so I was wondering if if was possible for me to call the apple store, give them the serial number, and have them track the ipod's location?

    If you had an active MobileMe account before it was lost, and the Find my iPod touch/iPhone feature was activated, and Location Services was on, and the iPod was connected to a WiFi network, and that WiFi network is in Skyhooks WifI location database, you might've been able to determine its very rough location (accurate to within 30m to 100m), and send the iPod a remote wipe command. >
    Without those things, there's nothing you can do.
    sorry for your loss

  • Is there a way to track a lost ipod with the serial number?

    Is there a way to track a lost ipod with the serial number?

    Here are the Find my iPod instructions.   iCloud - Find My iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac - Apple Support
    Apple do not have any form of service to find lost products.   But if it is lost, you can make a claim to your household insurance company or if it is stolen, report it to the police and send the report details to your insurance company.

  • Is there any way to transfer photos from ipod touch (2nd generation

    Is there any way to transfer photos from ipod touch (2nd generation & OS is 4.2.1) to PC? I am struggling a lot. The OS cannot be upgradable beyond 4.2.1
    I am wondering if there could be many other ways to transfer the photos like:
    1. with the help of any android app
    2. ipod touch to iphone/ipod latest version
    3. any 3rd party free softwares (there are paid 3rd party softwares but I dont want to invest)
    I did try some of the options:
    1. I could emailed only 6 photos in one email (I have almost 800 photos and would be time consuming.
    2. I'm trying to access my google account on my ipod but it keeps coming up with "oops! your browser seems to have cookies disabled..." My cookies are not disabled. Safari is the only browser for ipod touch and could not be able to installed not only any new browser but also any iphone apps. Updates for the existing apps not possible at all. So this option of uploading the photos on google drive is ruled out.
    Anybody is there to help me out? Sorry for such a long inventory.
    Thank you!

    If they were synced to the iPod you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView

  • Is there a way to track an unopened iPod?

    My friend and I were at Orland Park Mall and we sat down to eat. Whilest we were eating someone apparently swipped my friends iPod when we weren't looking. I know it was foolish to not keep a close eye. We filed a police report and talked to the store, but I was wondering if there is some way to track the iPod. It was brand new, not even opened, so there was no way to activate the "Find my iPod" feature. Can someone help me?

    No
    Sorry

  • Is there a way to turn on an ipod touch with a broken power and home button?

    I have an ipod touch 4th gen and the home and power button don't work plus the screen is shattered
    I have to wait until christmas to get an iPhone bc I have no money atm
    Aside from plugging it into a power source and having it turn on is there any other way to turn it on when I'm out?
    I know that some phones turn on when you plug in or take out the headphones, are there any options like that?
    I just need it for the next few weeks so there's no point in buying a new one right now
    thank you so much omg

    No, As you know the only method is to connect the iPod to a charging source.Yo could purchase one of the portable charging source/battery packs and use the turn it on when yo are not home.

    We believe my sons iPod touch 4th gen was stolen. Is there a way to disable it?

    There is no way to prevent anyone from using the iPod.  All one has to do is place the iPod in recovery mode and restore via iTunes.
    Apple will not do anything.
    You may be able to wipe as discussed above. (go to icloud.com, log in and go to FingMyiPhone)

    My iPod Touch, 4th Gen. iPod's screen broke and I need to access all the music and photos I have on it. But I received a new computer so it doesn't recognize my iPod and my iPod is locked. Since I still know the password, is there a way I can unlock it without restoring it or anything?
