My iPod was stolen about 2 days, but I don't have iCloud turned on the iPod. Help?

Okay, so about 2 days ago, my iPod was stolen from my bag. My older sister and I have been trying to locate it, but we can't because I believe that iCloud isn't turned on on the iPod. We've been to the iCloud website and I'm pretty sure I have the Find my iPhone (iPod) app, but without iCloud, we just can't locate it. It's really stressing me out. I've got the serial number, but we're not sure if we should bring the police into this. Yes, it is considered a theft, but it could have been just a little elementary schooler who took it. Either way, I just want it back.
My older sister is planning to call the police if her college professor, a computer technician, doesn't reply to her e-mail. She wants to see if he could track down the IP address from a post on my Facebook last night via iOS. That might take a while, so could someone please help me? I really just want to get my iPod. It has all my personal texts, pictures, and files on there. The thief may have deleted everything, and I don't think I could retrieve the lost data.

- 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

    No one here can help you, nor can/will Apple. If you don't know the Apple ID/Password that was originally used to activate this phone, you won't be able to re-activate it. And, if the previous owner tells you that he/she doesn't know it, you're out of luck. You simply won't be able to use the phone for anything other than a paperweight.
    Called Activation Lock.

  • My ipod was stolen 2 days ago

    My ipod was stolen 2 days ago and i need to know is there a way i can get into my account with itunes a delete everything (Photos, music, etc..???

    If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing, then there is a chance that can be contacted and erased, 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 once you erase the iPod, there wont be any way to track it, so you probably will want to note any location information it gives you first so you can give that to the police.
    If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track nor erase it remotely. If you had a screenlock passcode set, though, then the thief or whoever they give or sell the iPod will will have to restore it to use it, and that will erase everything.
    Regards.

  • Ipad 2 - 30gb and running out of space, but i don't have that many movies - can anyone help

    ipad 2 - 30gb and running out of space, but i don't have that many movies - can anyone help?  How do i find a directory of files that I can manage (PC user)?
    thanks!

    You might have to do some experimenting from iTunes on your computer.
    Several months back, I had a phantom 5G of video.  I unchecked ALL video files and synced the iPad and the 5G was still there.  I was able to delete the 5G and bring it back by repeatedly unchecking and checking the "Sync Movies" box.
    A "Restore" solved my problem.  Be forewarned that it's not quick:
    Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

    This means you have the iWork '09 trial installed. You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user. Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

  • My ipod was stolen and I had it backed up with icloud.  Is there anyway to get my music back?

    My ipod was stolen, but I had it backed up with Icloud.  Is there anyway to get the music?  I also need to know how to get he music off my daughter's iphone?  Some of the music was from cd's that were uploaded to itunes? 

    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • Ipod touch is very slow, but I don't have a lot of apps?

    I have a 4th gen Ipod touch, and lately it's been extremely laggy. I do not have many apps, and there is still around 45-50GB free on it. I use it primarily for music and it takes up 60-70% of what's on the Ipod. Whenever I try to play a song, I have to press the music app(oh whatever you call it the place where the songs go) at least 3 times before it actually displays a list of my songs. The attempts prior to that show the layout, but everything is completeky blank. And once I manage to play a song, it plays only the song I selected and then stops, making me repeat the whole ritual again. I've read other discussions on this topic, but the solutions seem to be restore it and don't overload it with apps... So I'm wondering why it's being like this. I've had it since June 2011 and is this a normal Ipod's lifespan (if it is that is extremely disappointing considering the amount of money paid)?

    turn off the ipod and turn it back on after 5mins
    Maybe do a factory reset and just transfer all your music back from itunes

  • IPod stuck in 'headphone' mode but I don't have headphones in. What should I do?

    My iPod won't make any sound at all. When I turn up the volume it just says that there is headphones in But there really isn't. What can I do to fix it?

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.

  • I just bought a new iMac and now I am trying to use it as a screen for my Macbook pro, but it don't have a Mini DisplayPort the new model only have Thunderbolt which my Macbook don't have. Is there any way to connect this two mac's anyway??

    I just bought a new iMac and now I amtrying to use it as a screen for my Macbook pro, but it don’t have a MiniDisplayPort the new model only have Thunderbolt which my Macbook don’t have. Isthere any way to connect this two mac’s anyway??

    Screen sharing setup in 10.5, 10.6 are described by the links by operating system.  10.7 is fairly similar to 10.6.
    And if both Macs have Firewire, you can setup a Firewire over IP network for fast communication between machines.  Note if you have two different Firewire ports a 6 pin to 9 pin Firewire cable does exist.  There are no Firewire to USB cables.

  • Hi, my ipod was stolen 2 days ago, how to see last location?

    30 mins ago the ipod connected to find my iphone and i locked it, but the location was unavailable, just a moments ago i got the location, but just for a few minutes, now i dont know how to see that las location, HELP!
    I was assaulted by for guys two days ago, luckly i ended with just a few little bruises, alive. Im from argentina, yes, here you are lucky if you get away without a stab from this kind of things, i ran like ****. i want this scum in jail and my ipod back.

    What is the "Voxer"?
    If you set up the find my iphone feature on the iphone itself and it is on and it has not been restored, then you may be able to locate using icloud.com.
    Otherwise, it cannot be tracked.

  • HT5787 What do I do if my iPod was stolen and I checked my support profile and when I entered the serial # I got a message saying it has been registered to another Apple ID? Is there a way to find out that Apple ID so that we can locate the iPod?

    What should I do if my iPod has been stolen and when I checked my support profile and entered my serial # and I received a message that the serial # had been registered to another Apple ID account? Is there a way to find out the Apple ID that it was registered to? I have already checked find my iPod and it shows my iPod is offline. I have already filed a police report.

    No, sorry, there is no way you can get that information. The police perhaps could, but it would probably require a court order and it's unlikely the police will go to those lengths unless they have reason to believe that this theft was not an isolated instance and hence worth more of their time than the single theft of an iPod.
    Even if they got the ID, it may well just be yours. Apple's registration database often contains such errors; I get the same message for some of my devices when I know I registered them to my Apple ID and the devices are all still right here.
