My mac book was stolen...

My mac book was stolen lastnight, what can I do to try to get it back? Can it be tracked? Please help....

No, it cannot be tracked unless you installed tracking software or registered it with Find My Mac on iCloud.com. Report the theft to the police. If you have a serial number you may even get it back it the thief ever pawns it. Also, report to your insurance company.

"Losing your iPhone feels lousy. Thankfully, iCloud can help you get it back. But if it looks like that’s not going to happen, new Find My iPhone features in iOS 7 make it harder for anyone who’s not you to use or sell your device. Now turning off Find My iPhone or erasing your device requires your Apple ID and password. Find My iPhone can also continue to display a custom message, even after your device is erased. And your Apple ID and password are required before anyone can reactivate it."

My mac book was stolen how can i locate it?

can some one help me to find my macbook pro ?it was stolen yesterday:(

I know someone who works for the police and (in the UK at least) they will not bother starting to investigate the loss unless they are PRETTY SURE they will find it - this will bring their 'detection rates' down and this statistic is unfortunately all they care about now.

You cannot.
Make sure your change your AppleID password (and anuy other passwords you had on that computer).
and also so that I can use my new computer when I get it?
Just restore your data onto the new computer from the most currsent backup of the stolen computer.

If you live in a big city, then I would recommend an independent computer store that fixes Macs. There are many mom and pop computer stores that fix your computer. Just Google it.

We had our MAC book Pro stolen and we registered it with Apple. Is there any way to recover the serial number for police reports if the receipt does not have the serial number on it? Thx

We had our Mac Book Pro stolen and have not been able to recover the serial number from our Best Buy receipt. We did register it with Apple during the set-up and downloaded music on it thru ITunes. Any chance we can recover the serial number from somewhere? Any details would be helpful. Thank you!

You can try going here, using the same AppleID you used on the machine:

You should see a list of all the devices registered to you

What do I do if my Mac Mini was stolen?

My Mac Mini was stolen, and I was told Apple might be able to find out where it is? How do I go about doing this?

No, there is no way for Apple or anyone else to determine its location. You may be thinking about Find My Mac which is a feature available in Lion.

HT201365 My mac book pro stolen from my home, if the thief setup new OS X . Can i find it?

Please replay, can i find my mac book pro?

You can only have a chance of tracking the stolen mac ...
If you activated the Find My iPhone service (in System Preferences>icloud), and if the mac is not turned off and has not been reset by reinstalling OSX to new, and is connected to the net, then you can try to track it.
If you have another computer to log into icloud.com and use the Find My iPHone page to see if it's listed as a device, then...
If the mac is listed as "offline", then one of the requirements listed above is not met.
To answer your specific question, if the mac was reset using a new OSX, then no, you can't find it using FMiP.

Change the passwords for any accounts where you stored the password on the computer.
Take this as an opportunity to go shopping for a new computer.

HT204347 We have had a Mac Book Pro stolen and need to find the serial number for it.

How do I find out the serial number for a Mac Book Pro that was just stolen? I don't have it in my records.
Thanks, Noel

My Mac Air was stolen May 2013- I got a call

My Mac book Pro was stolen May 2013 , I got a call yesterday but the guy claimed the message came across on an Ipad he bought from the Apple store, not a Mac book Pro is this possible?

Thanks, I did not think so, he claimed he just bought the Ipad 3 months ago from Apple, and just got the message, I suspected he was lying. The device is locked, so it is of no use to him I have given his # to the Detective handling the case.
