Is there any way to locate an iPad with a MAC Address and a Serial Number?

I happen to know the MAC Address for my recently stolen iPad. Is there any way to use that to locate an IP address the next time it accesses the web?

Not really. Other software would have to be installed on the device to locate it. That's what Find My iPhone is for (and it's free).
File a report with your local police.

Is there any way to sync 20 iPads to the same account and keep their folders?

Is there any way to sync 20 iPads to the same account and keep their folders?

We have 2200 student iPads on our school campus. When starting from scratch they all receive one identical image and then are renamed according to their property tag (manually ). Students are then checked out their device for the school year and often move their apps around into folders. I often have some come back in to be synced, updated, etc. and I do mid-year updates to apps. As long as their names are unique I have no issues with them retaining folders when they are resented late. So basically as long as you don't mind doing the set up to each one of the 20 the first time you sync them, you can update them whenever you'd like, adding and updating apps, and you can retain folders.
And of course there are all sorts of other options with Configurator and other MDMs.

Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
Then sync.

Is there any way to locate stolen iPad?

Is there any way to locate my stolen iPad? I have acquired my iPad just a few days ago and I believe stolen within two days. It's an iPad 3 but not associated with Verizon.

If you set up the Find My iPad service in the Settings prior to the iPad going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPad is turned on, connected to a WiFi or 3G network, and has not had the Find My iPad service disabled or the iPad been completely restored).
If you did not set up Find My iPad, then there is no way to track it. Contact the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPad (the iTunes Store, for instance).
Regards.

no, not unless "find my iphone" was turned on before it was lost.

Is there any way to locate a stolen ipad if I have the Serial number but didn't turn on the Find My Ipad?

My Ipad (and backpack, laptop, & other stuff) was stolen at the Portland Oregon Airport at 1:30 PM on 2/27/12.
unfortunately I had not turned on the Find My Ipad function. I do have the serial number and the IMEI number (although I never enabled the 3g function).
Is there any way to locate or track this?
Earlier discussions suggest this can't be done, but I have registred the laptop with Apple.

No.
Apple are not in the business of tracing your stolen iPad, any more than the manufacturer of your car will trace that if stolen.
Tell your service provider (now, before the thief spends a few thousand on international calls....), the police and your insurer.

I lost my iPad mini while traveling recently. Tried using Find My iPhone app to locate it, but it didn't show up...probably because not turned on. I have the original receipt with article number and serial number. Is there any way to locate it wit

I lost my iPad mini while traveling recently. I tried using the Find My iPhone App (which showed my iMac, my iPhones, my old iPad, and my macbook) but the mini didn't show up...probably because it was turned off or the battery ran down.
I still have the original receipt from when I purchased it, showing the article number and the serial number. Is there any way to locate it with that info?

No, unless you had Find My iPad enabled on it then there isn't any way to try and locate it.
Have you reported it to the police in case somebody hands it in ? You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc., and if it was a cellular model also contact your carrier.

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:

Help..is there any way to locate if u didn't load find my app

for the find my iphone(ipod/ipad) app the device would have to be connected to a wifi network for you to be able to find it but since you didn't there is no way to find now if it was stolen i highly recommend going to the police and give them information on the ipod touch ( serial number, make, model, gig size)

Is there any way to connect disabled iPad to network via external software?

Hello,
My iPad is disabled because of a Bluetooth mishap (my keyboard in my coat pocket tried to enter my password too many times). So I can't enter my password on the screen. Unfortunately I didn't back up the last few weeks of documents in any way, via either iCloud or syncing. And I just can't erase all the work I've done--it's irreplaceable to me.
Is there any way to connect the iPad to a WiFi network through external software, maybe using the lightning connector?
I ask because in iCloud I marked the iPad as Lost (in Find My iPhone), so I may get another chance at entering my password if the iPad can get online to receive the signal. But because it's disabled it won't connect to a network.
Many thanks for any help!

Not a big surprise unfortunately... time to get an iPhone I guess!
Thanks for the answer Sir!

Is there any way to make your iPad 2 into an ipad 2 3g?

I recently bought an iPad 2 iCloud and realized it does not have 3G. Is there any way to upgrade to 3G with my current iPad2? Like, a software update, maybe? Please help...
Thank you.

You can't update a wifi-only iPad to have 3G, it doesn't have the necessary hardware within it. If you are within the returns period for wherever you bought it from then you could take it back for a refund and buy the 3G version. Otherwise you can use an iPhone as a personal hotspot for it, or you can get mifi devices which take sim cards and act as mobile hotspots for computers and devices.
