Relocate Stolen Ipod touch through serial number....

6 Months ago my Ipod Touch was stolen and I do not know the serial number. Because the person who stole it lied to the police and did not have my stolen Ipod on them, there was nothing the police could do to get it back. I recently noticed that ITunes shows the serial number of devices when they are plugged into iTunes. Well I am wondering if iTunes stores serial numbers of all Devices used through ITunes. If so, is there some way I can get the serial number to locate my stolen device? I don't remember if I registered the device through Apple or not. I usually do register all my devices.

  • How to block my stolen ipod touch via serial number

    can anyone knows how to block my ipod touch 5th gen via serial number ? the one who stole my ipod touch has the capabilities about idevices .. i want atleast to block my stolen ipod for them not to use it or atleast that device is not being a useful one .. sorry for my bad english hope you guys get my point,many thanks in advace .. please suggestions?

    You can't block (nor locate) it via the serial number.
    If you had Find My iPod enabled on it then you could try locating it either via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPod disabled on it (if it was on iOS 7 as your tagline suggests then Find My iPod should be harder to disable).
    You've reported it to the police ? You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

  • How to block stolen ipod touch using serial number?

    hello... my ipod touch was stolen last night and i'm trying to figure out how to block the ipod using just the serial number.... i'm not quiet sure if the "find my iphone" apps is still accessible since it can be reset and all the data that's been saved will be deleted.

    The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours if it is recovered.
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - 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 without a court order

    Any way of locating iPod touch by serial number?

    No, there is not.
    IF you had set up find my ipod BEFORE it was lost AND it is on AND it is connected to wi-fi, THEN you may be able to find an apporximate street address.
    Otherwise you cannot track it.

  • How can i locate my stolen ipod with a serial number?

    You can't. Period.

  • Track my ipod touch thru serial number

    wondering if i can track my new ipod touch that was stolen with my serial number?

    As has been mentioned before many times, Apple cannot/does not deal with stolen devices, even if you know the serial number.
    For iPhones, what you should do is contact your carrier and have them turn off the service.  If you did turn on "Find My Phone" in settings (for iphones, ipod touches, ipads), then you can try logging into icloud.com and go to the Find My Phone section to view a map for tracking.  However, if the thief has replaced a sim or turned off the device (or, if they're smart, reset the device to factory condition), then this method of tracking won't work.

  • Is there a way to find a stolen ipod with the serial number?

    a few days ago my ipod touch 4th gen was stolen and i was wondering if there was a way to track it using the serial number?

    "yeah but there is still a way that you may track a phone"
    Yes.  GPS and Cell tower triangulation.  They also appeared in front of congress to answer for doing this.  And they will NOT track a lost iphone either.
    " i dont see why they cannot use the same thing to find an ipod "
    They will not track a lost iphone either, for the same reason.
    "hey could use the wifi to track the serial number"
    No they cannot for the reason provided.  Privacy law violations among other things.
    You could have used the find my ipod app to do this.  Apple cannot, just as no other manufacturer of devices will do it.
    Sorry.

  • How to track your ipod touch with serial number?

    Well i lost my ipod touch and I don't know how to find it. Is there anyway to track my ipod touch with my serial number.

    Here is Apple article:
    Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
    While Apple might be able to get information when the iPod is connected to iTunes, there would be privacy issues with revealing it to anybody who claimed it was stolen. Just think what would happen if you sold the iPod and later claimed it was stolen or lost.

  • Tracking Ipod touch with Serial number

    My son just got his ipod touch in April and lost it over the weekend in Gilbert AZ, I know the serial number, how cam I trackit, it does not have any trcaking apps on it.
    The safari and other apps are locked so whoever finds it cannot use it for a lot of things.
    How can i track it with just the serial number?

    that is not entirely true, but the only way to "track" it would be once it is connected to a computer, and connected to iTunes...i would suggest calling Apple support to see how this is done.

  • How could I report a stolen ipod using its serial number?

    I lost my ipod but i have its case, so i know its serial number. Is there a way i can find my ipod using this code?

    No.  Change the passwaords for all accounts used on the iPOd and report it to the police.  The police need the SN.

  • Someone's stolen & registered my ipod touch 4g serial number here

    If I prove ownership can they provide the police or investigator with an IP address of the account my device is registered to.

    No.  Apple will not help you find your iPod.  Report it to the police and change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod.

  • Is it possible to find my lost ipod touch using serial number that i know?

    title says it all

    No.
    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.
