My iPhone 4 (iOS 6) has been stolen. Can Apple (store) track it through its serial number or IMEI?
It appears offline on Find My iPhone. I guess I wasn't able to activate it on the iCloud settings. Or maybe it has been restored.. I don't know.. could it be tracked by Apple store through its serial number or IMEI? Thanks.
Sorry, no.
The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.

HT1391 my phone has been stolen can apple top it from being used
My phone has been stolen is there a way of it being blocked so it cannot be used again?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
If the device is wiped by you or another, you may not be able to locate the device (although some have reported they can) -

My iphone has been stolen can i find it?
hi my iphone has been stolen can i find 8 back f yes how?
<Re-Titled By Host>If you turned on Find My iPhone before it was stolen, then you can track it on icloud.com in a browser or the Find My iPhone app on iOS. Otherwise, you can't do anything.

My iphone was unlocked and has been stolen can I get it be blocked
If it was jailbroken, no support by Apple or on Apple forums exists.
If it was unlocked by the carrier and you enabled Find my iPhone:

Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

My ipod classic has been stolen can anybody download my personal photos from it
my ipod classic has been stolen can anybody download my personal photos from it
They can, but the images will only be the small thumbnail files that are created for optimized viewing on the iPod's smaller display. That is unless you store the images on the iPod in their full resolution.

my iphone.4 has been stolen,i want to track it with another iphone or my pc ... is that possible ?
IF you installed and activated find my iphone on the iphone iself BEFORE it was stolen, AND it is on, AND it has not been restored, then you may be able to track it.
Since you are asking the question, I am guessing that you did not install find my iphone.
If this is the case, then, no, you cannot track it.

I am signed in to my wifes iphone and it has been stolen. Tried tracking it with find my iphone, but it doesn't show up in my devices. She doesn't have a separate id. Any ideas why or what I could do to make it would be greatly appreciated.
It was still turned on, I am tracking with life360, but apple's tracking is more accurate. I just wondered why the phone doesn't show up in my devices on iCloud if I am signed in on it with my apple id. Thanks

Can lost ipod be traced with its serial number?
can lost ipod be traced with its serial number?
No.
- If you previously turned on the FIndMyiPod feature and location service is on, and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud, sign in, and go to FindMyiPhone. It the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
- Report to police and change the passwords fro all accounts used on the iPod.
- Apple will not help

My iPod classic has been stolen can I register this somewhere to prevent its use?
Annoying how people don't respect other peoples things. My iPod Classic 160Gb has been stolen from my car. Can I register this somehwere to prevent its use or better still wipe it. I do have the SN.
ThanksSorry, but the Classic has no internet capabilities, so there is no way to wipe it. And without Find My iPhone (which requires Wifi or cellular, there is really nothing that you can do to trace it either).
Your only option would be to report it to the police...
Sorry about your troubles

It's against the forum term of service to provide help for jailbroken phones. You will need to use google to resolve your issue.
