    Hello my ipod has been stolen. what do i do? i want to restrict everything just in case he can break troughbthe lock creen

    You must have it configured in your Find My Phone at icloud.com, otherwise, you cannot do anything.

    iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

    Hello oblivious123,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    This Apple support document describes a few different places you can look to find your iPod's serial number, including in iTunes, if and only if it was the last iPod that was synced on that computer. Hope it helps.

  • How can i track a stolen ipod touch with a serial number?

    how can i track a stolen ipod touch (2nd gen, 8gb, 4.2.1)

    Lucky you, the only way to get your missing device back is thru a GOOD SAMARITHAN.Remember once the new user puts your device to "ERASE ALL CONTENT AND SETTINGS" and you connect it to your iTunes ,using the new users Apple ID ,everything changes to the new users name,unless you have an Apple Care protection plan which is  registered under that serial #.

  • DMi information, need to find serial number

    I was giving a toshbia satellite, It looks like a M305. I need to find the serial # to see what it is and check warranty. Before it was giving to me, they installed vista home prem OEM without the toshiba software. Is there a software that will let me see the DMI information?

    Are the tags on the bottom mising?  They would contain the information you seek.
    If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

  • HT1689 How do I find a lost or stolen ipod touch with the Serial Number

    How do I find my ipod touch? Lost or stolen, not sure.

    The serial number will do nothing to help you locate it.
    IF you set up find my ipod on the ipod BEFORE it was lost AND it is on AND it is connected to wi-fi AND it has not been found and restored, then you may be able to get an approximate street address using icloud.
    Otherwise, you cannot track it.

  • Ipad has been stolen. Need to find the serial number

    When I went to the support page and entered my id info, only my iphone 5 information comes up.  I have had my ipad for 6 years. I need to file a police report, but can't find the serial number?

    Six years? Since the original iPad was released on April 3, 2010, which is less than four years in the past, your claim of six years is bogus.

    The serial number is on the box the machine came in; it is on your sales receipt; if you backed up your machine by cloning to an external drive, the serial number can be found in System Profiler; if you have an APP, the serial number is on the Agreement. If you've ever had the machine in for service at an AASP, they may have a record of the serial number, or it may be on the paperwork you received from them.
    If none of these are available to you, then you should call AppleCare at 800.275.2273 in the US (or find AppleCare's phone number on your country's Apple site). Maybe they can offer you more suggestions.
    Good luck.

  • How could I locate my stolen iPod Touch if the serial number is known and the device was already connected to iTune by the thief and connected to his apple ID

    My iPod Touch was stolen on the airport in vienna and already noticed to the local police.
    Is it possible to locate the thief, since he has alrady connected the device to iTunes and applied to his apple ID.
    (it is not longer in the reladed list of my apple ID - when I type in the serial number I get the message, that the device is related to another apple ID)
    Is there any way for the local police, to get the information of the actual apple ID of the thief from apple?

    A little more information:
    - 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.

  • How to track my stolen ipod only using the serial number

    I had my iPod stolen from me sometime within the last week. I changed my iCloud password tonight & I was just wondering if there is any way I can track it using the serial number because I did not set up "find my iPhone" before it was stolen. It was not locked (the password when you first turn it on.) Please help me! I still have one year warranty on it too. Can anybody tell me how to go about fixing the problem? I have serial number if you can track it that way. Please get back to me with your responses asap . thx

    - 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.

  • Lost/stolen iPod - Can you track serial number to current owner/thief?

    Recently I have either lost or had my iPod stolen while traveling across country. I had a brand new 30GB - Black iPod that disappeared from Point A to Point B. I took a red-eye, so either could have easily happened given the delays, weather conditions and tight connections experienced on this particular trip.
    Is there a way to search for the Serial Number via the internet for recent downloads from iTunes, etc...?
    I have replaced my 30GB with an 80GB and Nano, but would love to have it back to give to my wife or son.
    Any suggestions on how to recoop or track down?
    G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I used to work at an Apple Store and we were asked about this a lot. The other responses are correct, there is no way to track an ipod by Serial Number. The SN isn't recorded when you download items from the itunes store, that goes by your user account.
    Now, if the person who has your ipod sets up an itunes user account (and doesn't lie about their information - don't forget you can go to the store and buy an itunes giftcard and it won't require a credit card to make a purchase) and also registers the ipod under their name (and doesn't lie about their information) there MIGHT be a way for Apple to track it down. But, honestly, that involves a lot of work and the assumption that the new user hasn't faked any of their personal information. Do you think they're going to do that for you? Probably not.
    Sorry about your loss but all the SN is good for on an ipod is tracking warranty and repair information.
