When ipod is stolen what mischief can new user cause?

I left my 30G ipod in an airplane seat pocket and it was not turned in. Can someone who keeps it and uses it cause problems for my account? Like downloading my 3000 or so songs to new computers and using up my authorized computer allotment? Any precautions I can or should take?
Thanks,
Jon.

Hi Jon,
I'm sorry about your iPod. You need not worry though - the iPod itself doesn't contain any information related to your iTunes account. Even with the serial number, nobody can access anything of value.
I assume that you have already tried contacting the airline to see if they have found it?
Good luck.
Cheers!
-Bryan

    If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPod is turned on, connected to a WiFi network, and has not had the Find My iPod service disabled). Log into icloud.com and go to the Find My iPhone section. Then contact the police, giving them any location information you get.
    If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track it. Notify the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPod (the iTunes Store, for instance). 
    Regards.

  • My ipod was stolen what can i do to get it back

    My ipod was stolen out of my backpack and i want to see if i can get it back. What are some ways and how can i get a serial numbber off itunes

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod (Settings>iCloud) and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and and go to FIndMyiPhone. You can also wipe the device, and have it play a sound .If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - Apple will do nothing

    The SN will only help idenify the iPod as yours if it is recovered.

  • My ipod is stolen what can i do?

    my ipod touch is stolen, what can i do ?

    - 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.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order

  • Ipod got stolen what can i do

    My ipod got stolen.  Can I do anything to make it unusable?

    If you enabled Find my iPod, you can open the Find my iPhone app on another iOS device, or go to http://icloud.com on a computer. Sign in, and then you can remote lock it. This will take effect when the iPod comes online. If the iPod is running iOS 7 and you enabled Find my iPod, it is also protected by Activation Lock, which will prevent anyone from restorign or activating your iPod without your Apple ID and password.

  • My ipod was stolen, just bought a new one, trying to download to my new computer using my old account. I have lots of bought music on old account, but because my old ipod isnt registered to me new computer, I cant. Solutions?

    My ipod was stole. When i tried to register my new ipod to this account it alloud it, but when I tried to download my old music to the new computer it says i cant because i didnt approve it, (along those lines.) Because my old ipod was stolen I cant approve it to get my old music. Does this mean i purchased all those songs just to lose then? there has to be a way to get to download my songs, Im just not sure how. Any answers?

    For anyone with the same question, in itunes its at the topleft under store, push the authorize this computer section. yes it was that easy.

  • Transfer Applecare when Ipod is stolen?

    My new Ipod was stolen from my car the other day. I bought and registered an applecare extended warranty for it. If I purchase a new Ipod can I apply the remaining term of the extended warranty to the new Ipod without buying another warranty? It seems like a rip off if I have to buy it again, as the thief won't be able to use it

    As far as I know, you cannot transfer the agreement to another iPod.
    However, you can cancel it and get a refund.
    See paragraph 9.

  • My Ipod was stolen and I can't seem to register it's serial number

    My Ipod was stolen a week ago, and  as a means of possibly 'connecting' to it, I  tried to enter the serial number to it, but It keeps on saying that it is registered to another ID despite me only having  the  one. What do I do? Thanks!

    You cannot "connect" to it by using the serial number. The following has information from Apple regarding a lost or stolen device: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen
