You can also hover the mouse pointer over the backup for the iPod in iTunes>Preferences>Devices and the SN will come up in a box.

  • Is there anyway I can use my iPod Touch serial number or Apple ID to trace and find back my iPod Touch? Cause I lost it recently(as you know iPod Touch can only go online if there is WiFi). is there any other ways too, apart from contacting the police?

    No.
    - 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 unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • Any way to find iPod Touch serial number after it has been lost/stolen?

         I'm pretty sure I still have the box somewhere but I'm away from home for the time being and lost my iPod Touch over the weekend. After my digging I just can't seem to figure out if I can trace purchase history or associated devices in itunes back to the serial number of the device. I know this is a longshot and I might just have to wait until I can visit home and tear up my room looking for that stupid box... but if anyone could help, it would really supplement the police report nicely. Thanks!

  • IPod Touch serial number does not match invoice (rebate problem)

    Hi there,
    I recently purchased and received a MacBook Pro and iPod Touch online, taking advantage of the rebate program. I was just filling out the rebate form when I noticed that the serial number on my iPod's UPC sticker does not exactly match the serial number on the invoice. By that I mean there are three letters in the serial number that does not match. I checked with Apple's service support coverage online and found that the serial number which is on the invoice is recognized and the one on the UPC sticker is not. I was just about to send in my rebate coupon, and I am wondering if this would affect my rebate claim?
    I'll most likely call Apple tomorrow, but just wanted to see if anyone here has any idea.

    HI thanks for replying and the information and contact number. I really appreciate it!
    Sorry, I forgot to include those details. The MacBook was purchased online directly through the Apple Store on 12/20/07. The AppleCare was purchased directly from the Apple Store online on 12/19/08. I usually buy it direct from Apple because of horror stories I had heard about resellers when I bought my first Mac (G4 MDD). I had purchased the G4 MDD years ago and had an issue with it during the first year and called Apple and they informed me that I could buy AppleCare during the first year warranty. The individual I spoke with indicated I did not have to activate it before the first year anniversary, but that I just had to purchase it before the 1 year warranty expired. Before purchasing my wife's Applecare I checked to ensure that was still the case. From the information on the Apple site, it is my understanding that it is still the case. I know I cut it close, but I thought I had bought it later than the 20th. One night I pulled out the invoice and found it was ordered on the 20th so I ordered it that night (19th)!!

  • How do I find my ipod touch serial number on icloud?

    I am trying to find out how to find the serial number for my ipod touch 4th generation on icloud. I lost my ipod and I've been using the "find my device" tool on icloud but it keeps on saying it cannot be located. I then clicked on the "notify me when you find it" tool and it asks me for my contact number but doesn't let me type in my number. I'm frustrated and I can't even talk to a live person and that's making me even more frustrated.

  • Stolen ipod, with serial number. how do i find it?

    my friend stole my ipod. but she wont up to it,anyway i could track it on my computer with the serial number? so i can prove its at her house.
    she has stolen mny ipods in the past. from other people.

    "my friend stole my ipod. but she wont up to it,anyway i could track it on my computer with the serial number? "
    No.  The serial number does nothing at all to help you locate it.
    IF you set up find my ipod on the ipod itself BEFORE it was stolen AND it is on AND it is connected to wi-fi AND the thief has not restored it, then you may be able to get an approximate street address from icloud.
    Otherwise, there is no way to track it.

  • Can't Restore Gen 1 iPod Touch - Serial Number n/a and Unknown Error 1

    I had just bought a Gen 1 iPod Touch off of eBay. It is said to be fully functional and was restored to factory settings. It also appears to be in great shape (just as it was claimed to be). When I plugged it to my PC and it said, "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes". However, every time I click "Restore iPod" it reads, "The iPod 'iPod' could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1)". So, I am not sure how to fix this problem and I need help.
    I had tried all three iPod cables/cords I have just to see if there was a problem with the one that the iPod Touch came with, but I got the same results. >_<

    It may be toast since te problems started after dropping it. BTW, iOS 2.2.1 is the latest free update for the 1G. The 1G can be updated to iOS 3.1 but you have to pay for that update. Have you tried the guidance here:

  • 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 #.

  • Why can't iTunes track your ipod's serial number when it is synced to iTunes?

    I was wondering Why, if your iPod is stolen, iTunes cannot track your ipod's serial number when it is synced to iTunes.. I've had my iPod touch almost a year now and it is registered in my name and everything. This past weekend someone somehow got into my car while at a concert and stole my purse, my ipod, my friend's ipod and wallet.  I didn't think to file a police report because I figuered there would be nothing they can do. Since, a lot of people buy and sell iPods all of the time from one another instead of from a store.  I thought to let it go, but it keeps haunting me, someone has access to a lot of my person information. This hit me when at work, I was using Pandora internet radio, and someone deleted all of my radio stations and added their own. They are still using it till this day and I have no clue what to do, I've changed my password to Pandora even.  I know it's being used via my iPod from my Pandora app, I regreat not downloading the new ios5 on my iPod... So, I really have no further idea of what to do. I contacted Pandora in hopes they could change my account password or delete it or something, I just hope they haven't used any thing else important. I really wish it were possible for iTunes to track an iPods Serial number when the iPod is either synced to iTunes / iTunes store.. If it were possible, I wish they could help me out and at least lock my prior iPod or hopefully delete everything from that.. I don't have much hope in this though :/

    Thanks for the suggestions... tried tehm but no luck so I've taken it back. I think I'll try a Samsung (only other ones I've found with a Sleep Function) and move to Audible instead of iTunes. A shame after years of iTunes use but I shouldn't have to spend days getting a product to work. Thanks again.
