Lost or Stolen iPod Touch

I recently lostmy ipod Touch while exiting an aircraft. I notied the airline and airport with the serial number. So far, nothing came of that. Can iTunes detect my serial number and lock out whoever is trying to use it? Additionally, can the ip of the machine they are connecting to be captured and traced? It is not a GPS-enabled Touch. Any suggestions?

Sorry about your ipod.

Change your passwords and report it to the police.  That is all you can really do.

  • Can apple track down my lost or stolen ipod touch?

    is there any way apple can track down my lost or stolen ipod touch?

    No, but if you have activated Find my Iphone/ipod on it then you could have a small chance of locating it if it is around alot of wifi hot spots.

    If a lost or stolen iPod touch is reset by the finder, will I still receive notifications through Find My iPhone if it connects to Wi-Fi after the reset?

    If the device is completely reset and restored to defult settings, then it will not notify you because all the account informmation will have been removed. (Which is probably a good thing too)

  • How to find my lost or stolen ipod touch ?

    I lost my iPod touch and I can't find it! It's been almost a month now. I need help finding my iPod touch, please help?
    HOW DID I LOSE IT?
    - My dad came back fishing and he left the fishes in a bucket so I went outside to check it out with my iPod touch. I set my iPod touch by the shoes. Later, my mom came back from work, and she told me to wash the dishes. So then I did, but I heard that our relatives were coming over for food (eating fish). I forgot all about my iPod until the next morning. I amuse it was either stolen or I lost it somewhere, I have no clue.

    - 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.

  • HT1689 How do I find a lost or stolen ipod touch with the Serial Number

    How do I find my ipod touch? Lost or stolen, not sure.

    The serial number will do nothing to help you locate it.
    IF you set up find my ipod on the ipod BEFORE it was lost AND it is on AND it is connected to wi-fi AND it has not been found and restored, then you may be able to get an approximate street address using icloud.
    Otherwise, you cannot track it.

  • Report a lost or stolen iPod Touch

    I need to report my iPod Touch 4G either lost or stolen. I cant find it anywhere but if its stolen i want to know so i would like to report as both.
    My iPod is my life line and i would really love if you could help me.
    Thank you,
    Dara Chamberlain

    Dara, I'm sorry to hear your iPod Touch is gone, but there is no such place to report a loss to Apple. If you believe it was stolen the only place to record such theft is with your local law enforcement.
    Its serial number can be retrieved by logging in to https://supportprofile.apple.com/ with your Apple ID - same one you used to log in here.

  • Lost (possibly stolen) iPod Touch 4th gen. Any way to sever its ties to my account and other devices?

    I need a way of severing all services (such as message receiving and connecting to my iPhone texts) from my iPod Touch 4th gen remotely as I'm concerned it has been taken and I did not activate 'find my iPod' before its disappearance. I have already changed my Apple ID passwords in the hope that it would require my new password to recieve any further messages. I tested it on my iPad and this is seemingly not the case. I also do not want whoever has it to be able to see my mobile conversations as I also own an iPhone and I do not want them to be able to recieve all messages sent to and from my iPhone. Basically I just want to make it so no one can use any services using my account.

    there is nothing you can do to find it if the find my ipod app was not activated if it was stolen all you can do is file a police report you would need to have the serial number when you file the police report, plus notify your celluar provider that your iphone may have been stolen and they can make a note on their network about the phone

  • The other day at school i had lost/stolen ipod touch i had signed up with apple but i havent download the app (find my iphone) is there any way i can find out when my ipod touch gets connected to a wifi and track it

    how do u track an ipod touch when its connected to a wifi and how do u find out when its your stolen ipod touch is connected

    If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing - the app is for tracking an iOS device from another iOS device - then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPod is turned on, connected to a WiFi network, and has not had the Find My iPod service disabled). Log into icloud.com and go to the Find My iPhone section. Note, though, that you'll only get the location of the WiFi router to which the iPod is connected; there's no way to pinpoint the exact location of the iPod itself.
    If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track it. Notify the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPod (the iTunes Store, for instance). 
    Regards.

  • Trace a stolen iPod touch 4

    Hi, I'm new in here, I'm from Italy.
    I know there are no possiblities for me to find my now-probably-stolen iPod touch 4, but I'd like to try it all to trace it. Is there a method or something to know WHERE my Apple device can be, now? I've tried "Find my iPod" yet, so I mean a more effective method, even if I'd have to bother the police or whoever.. Because it's astonishing and disheartening that in an era when every possible thing is made by machines and computers, a person cannot find an instrument to be given back his/her ill-gotten gains.
    Sorry, but I can calm down.
    I thank in advance everyone who'll try to answer.
