"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.

    - 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.

    What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen
    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:

  • Find ipod with serial number

    My son's iPod Touch was stolen, along with a bunch of other stuff.  We've used the iCloud to try to locate it, but it hasn't been able to find it.  It may just be because the battery is dead, but I assume also that it could have been factory reset which I would guess would disable it from the iCloud.
    But I was able to get the serious number through applesupport.com.  Is there anyway to track it using only the serial number, if it's been charged and reconnected by someone to iCloud or iTunes, or otherwise?

    Unfortunately there is no way to track the device using the serial number.  Using the Find my iPhone feature within iCloud you can set up a message with a number to call you if someone locates it and connects to a wi-fi network.  Sorry to hear that the ipod was stolen. 

  • HT1689 How to find an ipod with serial number

    I lost my ipod but how can i find it i have the serial number

    You can't.
    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 "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    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.

  • How to find stolen itouch with serial number

    As many of you, I got my iPod touch 4gen stolen during a trip, so it is difficult to know exactly where it happened. I did not have MobileMe etc activated, so only info I have is the serial number from original box as I bought it new.
    What can I do ?
    Can the police help ?
    It must be so easy to track it when it is connected to a wifi connection....

    There is no way to do this, all you can do is report the device stolen with the police and give them the serial number of the device.
    Hopefully if they recover this then they will be able to contact them.
    There is no way to activate find my device after it has been lost.
    as you need to sign into the service on the device and agree to the terms.

  • How to track stolen laptops with Serial Number?

    Hi friends, my laptop is stolen two weeks back from my home. Serial No. CBxxxxxxxx
    Plz give me a suggetion to track that laptop.

    hi Subrahmanya,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    Currently, the only method AFAIK to track a laptop is via the Anti Theft Technology. It's a lojack for laptops that's embedded on the motherboard. When this chip is activated with the help of Absolute CompuTrace then they should be able to track the unit. Otherwise, there's no technology yet to track the laptop via the serial number.
    I recommend you have it reported to the local authorities so that you can claim the unit back once it's recovered.

    If you still have the original package, the IMEI is on the box. If not, and you did a sync with iTunes you can get the serial numer and IMEI from the iPhone backups.
    Devices tab
    Open iTunes.
    Open Preferences. (In Mac OS X, choose iTunes > Preferences. In Windows, choose Edit > Preferences.)
    Click the Devices tab.
    Position the mouse over a backup to display the serial number of the backed-up device. iPhone and cellular iPad models also display the IMEI/MEID and Cellular Data Number:

  • HT4061 someone stole my iphone and i dont have the serial number. how can i find my iPhone?

    someone stole my iphone and i don't know how to use the find my iphone app.  i don't have the serial number. can somone tell me how to find my iphone?

    Having a serial number won't help you track it.
    If you set up and activate find my iphone on your iphone, then go to icloud.com and sign in to track your phone.
    That is the only way to track your phone.
    contact your cellphone provider and local authority.
