  • If  someone  stole  your  ipod and deleted your apple id from icloud and u don't know the serial number. What can u do?

    if  someone  stole  your  ipod and deleted your apple id from icloud and u don't know the serial number. What can u do?

    To delete your iCloud account from Settings>iCloud they have to enter your ID password.
    The can place the iPod in Recovery mode and they restore the iPod but they will have to enter your iCloud ID and PW to activate the iPod.
    lost/stolen                                     
    No app on the iPod is required.                           
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or continue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    iCloud: Erase your device
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    - 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 unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • Is there any way to locate a stolen ipad if I have the Serial number but didn't turn on the Find My Ipad?

    My Ipad (and backpack, laptop, & other stuff) was stolen at the Portland Oregon Airport at 1:30 PM on 2/27/12.
    unfortunately I had not turned on the Find My Ipad function. I do have the serial number and the IMEI number (although I never enabled the 3g function).
    Is there any way to locate or track this?
    Earlier discussions suggest this can't be done, but I have registred the laptop with Apple.

    No.
    Apple are not in the business of tracing your stolen iPad, any more than the manufacturer of your car will trace that if stolen.
    Tell your service provider (now, before the thief spends a few thousand on international calls....), the police and your insurer.

    Sorry.

  • Hi we have lost our ipod is there some way we can find it??

    Please if anyone knows how to find an Ipod touch via the wifi or whatever it is could you please help us, childs very distressed and one of the parents could be at fault...Thankyou for reading and replying

    If you had already set up the FindMyiPod feature (Settings>iCloud) and wifi is on then may be able to find its general location by going to icloud.com, signing in and going to FIndMyiPhone.  Note that it can dfeaed by turning the iPod off or restoring the iPod. Otherwise yu will have to look for it the old fashioned way. Apple will not help
    Report it to the police and change the passwards for all accounts used on the iPod.

  • On the back button is the little drop down arrow completely gone, or is there a way I can I get it back. With the new Firefox I have to keep hitting back over and over again?

    Is the back button drop down arrow replaced by the little arrow next to the star on the bar?
    Maybe it didn't install correctly, I have Windows XP if that makes a difference. I know from the tour when the new one loaded there is supposed to be a bookmarks thing next to the new location for home but it's not on there either. It's still on my toolbar so I don't care enough to fix it so there is no need for anyone to address it, I just put the info in case it tells you something about it not installing properly.
    Sorry, it's not easy for older people to keep up with all the daily website changes, adding browser changes adds to the confusion. I hope my head doesn't explode one day. Thank you for the help.

    You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
    If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

  • HT1863 Is there any way possible to find my stolen iPads by using the serial numbers and not the cheesy find my lost iphone/pad app. Just turn off wifi, reset the ipad with a hard reset and no more tracker. Dissapointing since I paid $700 for it.

     

    Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.
    Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

  • I lost my iPhone 5 and iCloud or find my iPhone isn't on is there any way I can track my iPhone with the serial number or is there any other way ? iCloud or Find My iPhone wasn't installed or on please help

    I lost my Black iPhone 5, 2 days ago. Someone stole it. Find my iPhone app wasn't installed, it's not on. Is there any way I can turn on "Find my IPhone" on my phone from my computer or can I track it with the serial number ? Please help.

    I guess no but they can't use it because most likely they restored it and the name of your find my iphone will disappear on your computer even if it is on because it does not have your name anymore.

  • How do I try to track my 8GB ipod touch with the serial number if i dont have the actual ipod with me because its lost?

    I need answers on how to find or track my 8GB Ipod Touch.  The only thing i have is my phone and the computer to track it down somehow.  I have the serial number and I just need help trying to locate it somehow.

    You can't track it with the serial number.  If you had an iPod Touch running iOS 5 later AND set up Find my IPod on it, then there is a chance you might be able to locate it by going to www.icloud.com, logging in with your Apple ID and clicking Find my IPod.  Of course, the iPod still needs to be on and connected to a Wi-Fi network in order for it to be located.
    If nothing else, report it to the police and change any and all passwords to any accounts you set up or used on the iPod.
    Apple otherwise cannot help you.

  • HT1689 what happens of someone stole my ipod is there anyway to get another one besides buying a whole new one

    What happens of someone stole my ipod is there anyway to get another one besides buying a whole new one? Does anyone know? And why does it have to be connected to the internet for it to locate my apple devices? There should be a locating chip in it already. Better ideas here..

    You'll have to buy a new one, unless it is covered in some kind of insurance that you have.

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod via a paid subscripton to the now discontinued MobileMe ins in Settings>Maile>MobileMe 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.
