My iPod was stolen-existing password? I didn't have one!

No option to establish password on find iPod app because it says it has been reset to existing passcode. I didn't have a passcode! Any way to get around this and set remotely?? My fear is thief set passcode himself. iPod was nearly dead, but we did pick it up in a nearby town this evening. Haven't wiped it yet in hopes it shows up. Stolen by a middle school kid.

Try to wipe it remotely as long as you can still do that. And change all of your passwords for mail etc that were used on the device.

    My ipod was stolen, can I find out what the serial number of it is, based on looking at a connection history in my itunes? How would I do this? I didn't register it. I think I found the guy selling it, just looking to confirm the serial number and I'll make a phone call to the police.
    Thanks

    Yes.
    Open iTunes on the computer you used to sync the iPod and select Preferences… from the iTunes menu.
    Select the Devices pane. Position the cursor over any of its backups. The iPod's serial number will appear in a popup window.

    my ipod was stolen and i finnaly was able to get into my account after they changed the password is there a way i can fid the locaition of my ipod even if it has died ?

    No.  The only way is if the FindMyiPod feature was already set up and wifi is on.  However, that can be defeted by turning the iPod off or restoring it. If they have access to the iPod then can just turn the feature off.
    If the iPod off/battery drained how would you expect there t be a way of finding it?
    Apple will not help.

    The most immediate thing you need to do is to call your credit card company and report the unauthorized charges. Your card company can contact Apple if they need additional information.
    Next, log into your iTunes Store account and see if the purchases are reflected in the Purchase History. If they are, immediately change the password to your iTunes Store account, making sure it's not something easily guessed or looked up. Then go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Whether or not they'll do anything for you I don't know, particularly if you didn't change the password after your iPod was stolen.
    If the charges are not reflected in the Purchase History, then it's most likely a fraudulent charge to your credit card directly rather than an unauthorized purchase through your iTunes Store account in which case it will be up to your bank to handle.

  • What does unregistering an ipod do?My ipod was stolen and i was wondering if unregistering it would delete everything on my ipod?

    My ipod was stolen when i was at school. I didn't have a passcode on it, and i really want to make sure the theifs don't have the opption to look at all my personal info, pictures, and events. I have taken steps to attempt to protect myself, but i was wondering what unregestring your ipod does/purpose? thanks for answering my questions.
    My ipod touch is a 8GB, older ipod touch (no camera, older ipod touch, maybe "2nd generation"??)

    What do you mean "unregister"?
    I am not sure that this is a thing.
    There is nothing you can do but report it to the poilce and change your passwords.
    If you did not passcode lock it, then the thief can look at everything on your ipod.

  • Today my iPod was stolen! But I also use iPhone, and both of them are registered in the same Apple ID!

  • How can i turn off my apple id if my ipod was stolen

    my ipod was stolen and the person is using it because iwas logged in and now i need to figure out how to erase my apple id so that they cant use it. how can i do this?

    They won't be able to use your apple ID as after a set ammount of time you have to enter your password to be able to purchase anything
    To disable them from using stuff like email accounts on the device or you facetime simplely chnage your passwords

  • 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.
