Launch iTunes, go to the Preferences, select Devices, and hover your cursor over the backup file for the iPod. That should show you the serial number, IMEI, and possibly the MEID.
The manufacturer ID will not help you locate the iPad, though. 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.

When I save photos or videos from my iPhone 4S to my PC they are all sideways. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? All are taking with the phone in portrait mode.

Shot videos ONLY in landscape. For photos choose what's you like. Maybe you have to rotate photos on PC. What's your operating system?

Cannot get my disc drive to eject. It whirs like it want to eject but nothing happens. Any suggestions on how I can fix this?

My G3 power PC, I cannot get the disc drive to open so I can put a disc into it. I sounds like it is stuck. Is there a way I can fix it without taking it in to a repair store?

OK, what you have is an iMac G4 17-inch USB2.0. Good work.
Unfortunately, that model is among the hardest to service at home. Getting one apart is a job of modest difficulty; reassembling it so the heat dissipation system works properly is more difficult. Many have succumbed to heat-related failures following improper reasesembly.
Did you try my suggestion of booting the computer while depressing the mouse button?
When you start the computer can you hear a short sound from the optical drive?
If you put a light fingernail pressure between the tray and the computer case, does anything move?
If you need it serviced professionally, unfortunately Apple considers that model obsolete and will not work on them. You'd need to find an independent repair shop that really knows G4 iMacs.

TS4147 iCloud update today removed my main contacts and placed them in the icloud folder along with my other contact groups.. now they are all mixed together.

Outlook 2010. I had a main id plus several other address books. I updated the iCloud control panel today and it merged all of my address books into an iCloud address book, it removed my main contacts and mixed them all into the other address books.

Restore your backup.

I am having trouble with iMessages. I cannot connect iMessage from my iPhone to my macbook air. This happened after I changed my apple id and keychain password last night.

Notes doesn't sync from my iPhone to my MacBook Air, and shuts down.

When I open up "Notes" on my MacBook Air, it freezes and shuts down unexpectedly. I want to sync all my notes from my iPhone to my MacBook Air like all other features using IOS devices. I figured I'd check on here first before calling Apple Care. I had a problem similar to this with iMovie, and I had to go to >GO> computer>Macintosh HD>Library>preference> and select something from the imovie.plist type file. I dragged and dropped that plist file to my desktop and it reopened as a fresh app. I then moved that plist file on my desktop to trash and opened up iMovie, and it worked perfectly. Can anyone help me with the "notes" feature, and to help keep it from not freezing and shutting down; that way I can sync everything from my iPhone to my MacBook Air.
Thank you so much.

Your signature says you have 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). Is this correct? (If it isn't, please amend it to prevent confusion.)
The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.2 (Mountain Lion preferred).

I have an iMac, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro. My full iTunes library is on the iMac and iPhone, but only a handful of songs are on my MacBook. They are all associated with the same Apple ID. How do I get all of my music on the laptop?

I have an iMac, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro. My full iTunes library is on the iMac and iPhone, but only a handful of songs are on my MacBook. They are all associated with the same Apple ID. When I try to sync, I get a warning message stating that I will lose songs on my phone which aren't on the laptop. How transfer my music from my phone to the laptop?

Hey kbert73
I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

Transferring photos from your computer has nothing to do with your iTunes account/Apple ID.
Photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring photos from another, all photos on the iPad that were transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPad first - even if the photos were transferred from the old or different computer to the new computer being used for syncing.
When transferring photos from your computer, what is named the iPod Photo Cache is created on your computer for the photos that are transferred and why you see new photos being transferres are optimized before the actual transfer process. The iPod Photo Cache for these photos on the computer the photos were transferred from is not available on your new computer.
Since all photos on your iPad that were transferred from the old or different computer should remain on that computer, transfer the photos from that computer to your new computer. These photos on your iPad will be erased with the first sync but will be re-transferred along with a new iPod Photo Cache for these photos being created on your new computer.

Was it working before? Is your Apple TV enabled for airplay?

My iPad was stolen yesterday. I cannot track it while using find my iPhone is saying is off.

My iPad was stolen at the house yesterday. I have reported the matter to law enforcement. I have tried to track it using find my iPhone from my iPhone and it shows that the iPad is off. My work and important documents are there. Anyone who can assist on how I can trace it?

You cannot trace it if it is offline.
Hopefully you have a passcode on your iPad and you have backups of these documents.

If you do a restore you will lose everything. Some things will be backed up in iCloud but not everything.

i HAVE AN iPad iii. iT HAS about 4000 photos on it. I just bought a new PC and the IT people did not copy all the photos from the old computer but they are all on my Ipad.
Is there a way to upload those photographs to ITUNES and have them stored on my computer. Or if I synch, will all those photos vaporize because they are not on my computer.

Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. I DO NOT have any back ups on itunes. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without restoring or recover data after a restore?
Or any other suggestions please? Thanks

As pdroth said, you should have gotten a backup made when you started the update of iOS. If you cannot find a backup, and the phone is in recovery mode, there are no futher suggestions to make. To get the phone working again you have to restore. You cannot force a backup at this time since it is already in recovery mode. It will not allow anything else but a restore at this point.
