We had a MacBook Pro stolen from our home when we were out of town and I am pretty sure we never activated the LoJack type of function on it not sure if its called lojack but you get what I am saying is there any way we can activate such hardware/app now so we can possibly recover our laptop? Any one who can point us in the right direction that would be great and we would be very grateful. Thanks So Much
Lojack for laptops - if that is the product you purchased and installed, you will need to read the user manual or contact the manufacturer as it is 3rd party. You did file a police report right?

Hello, I have had my Macbook Pro stolen from my apartment. How do I lock it or track it? It there anything I can do?
Do you have iCloud enabled?
On your Mac go to iCloud.com.
Sign In then click Find My iPhone (finds all devices, not just an iPhone).
Otherwise report the theft to local authorities. Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product -
My iphones was stolen on friday how can get my contacts back or is there any way i can track it? i cant find my imea number.
The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords, especially your Apple ID/iCloud password NOW!
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, and running iOS 7.0, then phone cannot be activated or the passcode removed without knowing your Apple iD/Password. It will be nothing but a useless paperweight.
If not running iOS 7.0, the phone can be forced into recovery mode & restored.
Your carrier has a record of your IMEI number. Also read here:

Hi my names mark.I have the ipad 2 it's on ios 7.1 I had iOS 7.4 but it downgraded to iOS 7.1 is there any way I can upgrade to iOS 7.4 and the 3D effect is gone off my ipad
There isn't an iOS 7.4 - there was a 7.0.4 (and 7.0.6), 7.1 is the current version.
For the parallax effect, do you currently have Settings > General > Accessibility > Reduce Motion set 'on' ? -
After upgrading to OS Mavericks, I realized that the Partition for Windows is gone. I have really important data on this drive without a back up. Is there any way I can get this data before reformatting. Is there any third party software for receiving the data or any possible way? Money is not a limitation to this fix. Please help!!!
sure pretty simple. make a backup of your current settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
then import pics to computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
you may need to save pics to camera roll first
then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes
Peace, Clyde -
Hi, I accidentally deleted photos from my photo stream, causing them to disappear from my camera roll aswell. I am desperate to get these photos back. Is there any way I can recover them? Thanks
Hi Am1121,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you have a backup of your iPhone on either iCloud or iTunes from the time when those photos were on the Camera Roll, you can restore from that backup and recover those photos. Please use the following article for information on restoring from backups.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

I bought an iphone 4s off of kijiji and the phone is linked to the persons apple id, and i ant get in contact with them. is there a way i can activate my phone without having to jailbreak it.
You won't be able to activate it even if you do jailbrake it. There's no way around activation lock without the assistance of the prior owner.

I accidentally deleted a contact but stupidly i haven't ever done a backup. When i search my i phone, text messages that i received from this deleted contact still appear but they aren't in my message inbox. Is there anyway i can retrieve this contact??
Thank you!!!With no backup? No. Are you not syncing your contacts either over-the-air or with a supported application on your computer?

Can a MacBook Pro stolen from me be reformatted just like Windows?
Sorry for asking this Question - I know that there have been threads in the past with similar Question but still I'm kinda confused.
-MacBook Pro OS X has been stolen from me
-I have enabled my Apple ID in it
-I called Apple Support and requested to 'Erase' the data
Can a MacBook Pro stolen from me be reformatted just like Windows?
-Can the thief easily reformat its hard drive just like on Windows and install a cracked Operating System?
Thank you Guys.The answer is, Yes. If you enabled Find My Mac, then you could track it or erase it using your iCloud.com webpage and clicking on Find My Phone after signing in.
What To Do If Your Mac Is Lost Or Stolen
If you activated Find My Mac before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi. What you cannot do is track your computer using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your computer for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty. Be sure to report the loss or theft to the local police. Have the serial number handy. If your Mac is found it cannot be returned to you if you don’t have the serial number and proof of purchase.
Find My Mac can be used from Find My Phone at iCloud.com and via Find My Phone on your iDevice.
The following is third-party anti-theft software:
1. STEM 2.1
2. MacPhoneHome 3.5
3. MacTrack 7.5.0
4. VUWER 1.7
5. Sneaky Bastar* 0.2.0
6. Undercover 5.1.1
7. LoJack for Laptops
8. Hidden 2.0
9. Prey 0.6.2 -
Hi, I have had my MacBook Pro stolen and the police have mentioned about using iCloud to see if I can track it's whereabouts - however I have no idea if I had iCloud on my MacBook or how to track it if I did - can anyone help me please? Thanks
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
To see if you have iCloud, open http://www.icloud.com and log in with your Apple ID. If you can access to iCloud, you have iCloud. If you get an error message or you can't access, you don't have iCloud. This only works if you only have the Mac (not an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad with iCloud).
Apart from that, "Find my Mac" must be turned on in the Mac in order to track it, so if it wasn't turned on, you won't be able to track it. If it was turned on, the computer must be connected to the Internet to be tracked.
If you can access to iCloud through http://www.icloud.com, choose "Find my iPhone" and look at the Devices list. If your MacBook Pro shows up, "Find my Mac" is turned on, so see if you can track it and tell to the police that it's possible to track your MacBook Pro -

HT204347 if my macbook pro was stolen, is there any way i can find it ?
i bought my pro two years ago, but it was stolen yesterday, is there any way I can find it ? please help. it hais important documents and pounds of memeries.
If you had iCloud enabled...
Go to www.icloud.com > iCloud
then login then click Find My iPhone (works for finding your Mac also)
This will only work if the Mac is turned on and Find My Mac was enabled in System Preferences > iCloud
If you did not sign up for iCloud before the Mac was stolen > Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
A stolen or lost device cannot be located from the serial number. -
hi, i had recently formatted my iphone with no itunes backup. i restored my data with icloud but all the pics didn'y come back. now when i tried to restore again, icloud deleted all my pics from the server too!! is there any way i can get them back??
Back from where?
You choose to not copy them off to a computer as they are designed to be.
If they are no longer showing in iCloud, they are gone. -
My laptop computer was stolen six months ago. I had over 100 purchases from itunes on that laptop. I recently got a new laptop. Is there any way I can recover my purchases from itunes on to my new laptop?
I would ask here
https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes
when you buy stuff it's connected to the appleID not the computer
nor the appletv which have no storage so there is no option to get it from the atv
