Is there anyway to track my ipod based on serial number if find my iphone isn't one?

f you have previously set up/configured the FindMyIPod service in the iPod's settings, you might be able to track it that way by going to www.icloud.com and signing in with your Apple ID. Then click the FindMyiPod icon. This also requries that the iPod Touch be still powered on, connected to a nearby Wi-Fi network whose location has been correctly entered into Apple's location database) and not have been restored by somebody else who my have located the device.
Otherwise, I'm afraid you are out of luck and will need to look for it as you would anything else you lose. You should report the lost item to the local authorities and change any and all passwords to any accounts you may have set up or accessed with the device. Apple can do nothing to help.

Is it possible to track an ipod through its serial number, or find it any other way

My ipod was stolen/lost today, i have the serial number and the find my ipod app is installed but apparently not activated. Short of going to the police is there any others way that i could possibly get it back, please make some suggestions as every little helps.
If by a massive coincidence the person who found it is reading this (it is in a black leather flip case and is engraved with "mischief managed") contact apple to report it missing.

The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours 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 to iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- 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.
- Apple will do nothing

How to track your ipod touch with serial number?

Well i lost my ipod touch and I don't know how to find it. Is there anyway to track my ipod touch with my serial number.

Here is Apple article:
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
While Apple might be able to get information when the iPod is connected to iTunes, there would be privacy issues with revealing it to anybody who claimed it was stolen. Just think what would happen if you sold the iPod and later claimed it was stolen or lost.

HT1349 how can you track you ipod with only serial number ]

2nd Generation ipod Touch

Hello, Tommyty,
I am sorry you have lost your iPod. You don't yet seem to understand that its serial number is not tracked electronically. Here is my attempt at explaining the same thing that Limnos and stevejobsfan0123 have already told you.
Tommytj wrote: ... HT1349 how can you track you ipod with only serial number ] ...
Only by physically looking at the iPod's serial number.
Tommytj wrote: i need to find my ipod can anyone help me find a way to track my ipd touch with only a serial number using icloud.
No.
Nobody can help you with that request because iCloud and "Find My iPod touch" do not work that way.
If you cannot see the iPod, you cannot track its serial number. Unless someone sees the serial number, nobody can track it.
Regardless of whether you have properly installed and enabled "Find My iPod touch", iCloud does not track your iPod's serial number. This is true even when you or someone else can see your iPod's serial number.
Regardless of how much you wish iCloud could track your iPod's serial number, it cannot.
"Find My iPod touch" can sometimes track an iPod's location but only under the specific circumstances Limnos has already explained to you.
If "Find My iPod touch" cannot locate your iPod by its location, there is no iCloud way to find it. In that case, the only way to identify your missing iPod is for you or someone else to physically look at it.
Perhaps you will be successful with one of these alternative possibilities for recovering your iPod:
• you can physically search and find your misplaced iPod
• someone may it returned in response to a reward that you offer
• the police may find it after you have reported it stolen

Is there anyway I can retrieve my street view back for the Find My iPhone app?

Is there anyway I can retrieve my street view back for the Find My iPhone app?

My wonderful daughter gave me the solution to my problem. Hopefully it will work for you as well - a Hard Restart....To do this you will need to hold down the screen lock button and the home key together until your iPad shuts off. Once your iPad has shut off, simply restart it. Once the iPad was turned back on, my street views returned for all of my maps :-)

- 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.

Tracking Goods movement based on Serial Number

Hi All,
I need expert advise on the following regarding the usage of Serial numbers from MM Perspective:
1. Whether the Number range for Serial Numbers can be given. This is to take care of the Goods bearing serial numbers, being delivered by the external vendor. I have two options: one to update the stock with the same serial number as given by the vendor & the second is to generate my own serial number for the material.
2. I also need to track the complete Goods movement based on the Serial Number of the material.
Pls advise asap.
Regards,
Shekhar.

Hi Kishore,
Thnx for your prompt response.
As requested, If I need to update the stock and want to continue with the serial number as given by the vendor (may be in the form of barcode), what config settings are reqd ?
Secondly, pls advise whether we can assign Number range to the Serial Numbers. Then we need to work upon situation where the serial number provided by the vendor is beyond the specified number range.
Pls advise.

How to track my ipod without the serial number, how to track my ipod without the serial number

i just got my ipod stolen how do i track it without the serial number please help my parents will kill me

The serial number does not help you track it. You can't track it without Find my iPod. If you did have Find my iPod, I have no doubt the thief disabled it by now. So it's gone.

My girlfriends iPad has been stolen and wiped as it no longer shows on her devices list in find my iPhone. Is there anyway it can be traced by the serial number?

Can anyone help me, is there a way to trace a stolen ipad by the serial number? It seems the thief has wiped the ipad as it no longer shows on her devices list in find my iPhone. Can the serial number be used to trace it once it is set up on a different Apple ID?

No.
Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

Track my ipod touch thru serial number

wondering if i can track my new ipod touch that was stolen with my serial number?

As has been mentioned before many times, Apple cannot/does not deal with stolen devices, even if you know the serial number.
For iPhones, what you should do is contact your carrier and have them turn off the service. If you did turn on "Find My Phone" in settings (for iphones, ipod touches, ipads), then you can try logging into icloud.com and go to the Find My Phone section to view a map for tracking. However, if the thief has replaced a sim or turned off the device (or, if they're smart, reset the device to factory condition), then this method of tracking won't work.

How do I track my ipod with the serial number? Is that possible?

Okay, well i lost my ipod touch in my house, and I really need to find it. It might not even be in my house, but I just have to find it. I know I must not sound very responsible but... please I need to find it NOW!

No. The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours 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.

STOLEN MacBook Pro and cannot find my serial number for the device is there anyway else I could locate it because I have used find my iPhone to locate device but it is not registered even tho I have used the same app to locate my phone on my laptop.

Can someone please help me with this unfortunate situation?

The only way you can find it is using Find My Mac (or iPhone or whatever). Knowing your serial number does not help except if the police finds it and needs to identify it as yours.
If you didn't turn on the Find My Mac service (System Preferences>icloud), then you can't track it.

Is there anyway to track my ipod based on serial number if find my iphone isn't one?
