MY brand new still inbox macbookpro was stolen is there anyway apple can locate it for me? i have the serial

i just went to bestbuy to get a new macbook pro 13inch led backlit and i was taking the bus home and as i was getting off the bus i relized i left my macbook and when i turned around it was already gone. i was just wondering if apple could help me locate it. i havent setup mycloud on it yet but i do have the serial number. can the help me?
P.S I've already notifyed the police

Some credit cards offer "buyer protection" as  perk.  If you paid with a credit card, ask.
Also if the receipt was with the computer, keep an eye on the card activty in case soemone uses the receipt information (though most stores just print the last 4 digits of the card number).
And skip the corner bar.  You need your wits about you for this.

    Whether you set it up or not, notify the authorities, giving them your serial number.  Notify your cellular carrier as well.

    There is no way for Apple to track an iOS a device by serial number. Your data is unprotected and you should take steps to make sure that nothing is compromised.

    Unfortuantely, you can only track the phone if you had set up iCloud and enabled Find My iPhone on it before it was lost or stolen.  I don't believe there is anything that Apple can do to locate your phone either.

  • My iphone is stolen, is there anyway I can track

    My iphone is stolen, is there anyway I can track other than using find my iphone?

    Only if you set up the Find My iPhone service for the device before you lost it.  If you did not set it up first, then it's too late.

  • Iphone 4s got stolen, is there anyway I can track it down with my IMEI/MEID

    my iphone4s got stolen, is there anyway I can track it down with my IMEI/MEID,

    IF you enabled "Find My iPhone" prior to it being lost/stolen, you can track it at iCloud.com.
    Report it to law enforcement and the carrier.

  • My sons ipod touch was stolen is there anyway to trace it

    my sons ipod touch was stolen  it there any way to trace it

    If you have solid reason to believe that this person has the iPod, tell the police. If you can present some sort of concrete evidence, they can get a warrant to search the house, though whether they will do so for a theft of such low magnitude (relatively speaking) I don't know.
    Otherwise, sorry, there's no way to trace the iPod.
    Regards.

  • My itouch got stolen, is there anyway it can be tracked?

    my itouch got stolen, i have the serial number, i was just wonderding if there was anyway i can track it so i can get it back ?!

    No.
    Unless you have mobileme AND activated find my ipod on the ipod BEFORE it was stolen, AND it is on AND it is connected to wi-fi, THEN you could find the registered address of the wi-fi router to which it was connected.
    What device can you track with the serial number?
    Sorry about your ipod. 
    Report it to the police and change your passwords.

  • My PC was stolen during a break in, aside from filing a police report with the serial

    My 2012 16" Macbook pro was stolen from my livingroom during a break in yesterday.
    The first thing I did was call the police and file a report including the laptop serial number with the officer who arrived on scene.
    Then I changed my apple id password along with my email passwords for security.
    The police told me that should anyone try to sell it in a store it will come up flagged since I reported the serial number. However I'm wondering if anyone can give me more information regarding how people track the computer location because I've been researching online and it seems like it is done often, although I don't think I registered for icloud.

    Some newer devices with a built in GPS can be set up to send a location to the iCloud server if the feature is activated before the device is stolen, and the device is turned on/not discharged battery, and it is able to connect to a registered WiFi network, and it has not been restored to new condition by the person who finds the device.

  • My iPod was stolen, is there anything I can do?

    My iPod touch was stolen at school a few days ago and I do have the FindMyiPhone app on it, but no luck tracking it. I've sent messages to the iPod about contacting me if found, and I've also locked it from my friend's iPhone, but it keeps saying that since it's not connected to the internet, it can't locate it.. and that the messages won't be seen until connected to the internet. Is there any other way that I can track it with it's serial number? Or anything else that I can do with the app? PLEASE help!
    Oh and is there any way that I can get insurance on my ipod... or any way that I can find out whether I have any or not?

    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 your bank or any 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 informtion, 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.

  • My ipad was stolen a few months ago just getting around to it  i have my serial number and my receipt to when and where i bought it how can i track it

    need to know how to track it and find where its been

    You can't.
    Well, if you had a .Mac account and enabled the "Find my iPhone" functions before it was stolen, maybe you could (I'm not sure how that all worked).
    With a serial number and reciept, you can't track it.
    You reported it stolen, right?

  • My iPod was stolen ... anyway i can track it ?

    My cousin has stolen my iPod , and i believe he sold it, the ******* *******. Is there ANY way i can track it ? It has extremely important things, that if I loose, can ruin everything. Plese, HELP ME !
    I apologize for my english.

    IF you set up find my ipod on the ipod itself BEFORE it was stolen AND it is on AND it is connected to wi-fi AND it has not been restored, then you may be able to find an approximate street address using icloud.
    Otherwise there is no way to track it at all.
