Will find my phone and I cloud work if thief reset iPod to factory settings?

My iPod had both my iPhone account and a iCloud one..
CAn it still be tracked if it was reset to factory settings ?

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.

    My iPod touch 4g will do weird things like, shut completely down when I'm listening to my music and when I do other stuff, the warranty is expired, so can I get it repaired? Please help

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

  • HT1551 My iTunes music library disappear from my AppleTv 1rst generation, and would not accept it back. The Video part works find, but the Music part does not. I reseted to Original factory settings, but still has same problem. Any body has any suggestion

    I have a 1rst generation Apple TV and My Music disappear; after trying several times trying to get My Music back, I opted by resetting it back to Original settings with no avail. The video part is find, all my movies are there, but when it comes to the Music nothing shows up.
    Does anybody know what could be happening here and have any suggestions how fix it ?

    So, when you go to Devices->AppleTVname->Music in the left panel of iTuens, you have:
    1. "Sync music" checked
    2. Either "All songs and playlists" or "Selected playlists" plus actual playlists selected
    Correct?
    And of course, in those actual playlists, there is music?
    Is htis iTMS purchased music, or mp3's?

  • My ipad 2 will not connect to the internet I've tried to manually enter it but its not recognising it or finding any connections.  I've reset it to factory settings twice and its not clearing it.  Does anyone have any ideas??

    My ipad 2 will not connect to the internet I've tried to manually enter it but its not recognising it or finding any connections.  I've reset it to factory settings twice and its not clearing it.  Does anyone have any ideas?? 

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

    Just Upgraded my IPOD 5 to iOS 7.0.2 and it will not charge the battery anymore.
    When I plug it in, it now gives the message "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this IPOD".
    Anyone else have this issue after they upgraded the iOS system?
    Thanks,

    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • Will this video card and power supply work on my computer? HP Pavilion p6213w Desktop PC

    I have a HP Pavilion p6213w Desktop PC, will this video card and power supply work on my computer?
    Video Card: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=8379339&sku=A455-0760
    Power Supply: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4668507&sku=C13-2511
    Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

    It is unlikely that the power supply will fit/work in your HP Pavilion p6213w Desktop Computer. Please consider the Corsiar CX500, CX500M, CX600, and CX600M for your power supply needs. These power supplies are the same physical size as the factory unit and are known to fit and work in most HP full-sized consumer desktop computers.
    There is a chance that the GTX 760 and other current generation video cards may not work in your computer. These newer cards typically require the computer to support the most current UEFI standards and many motherboards don't meet this criteria. Please know the return policy on any video card you purchase, in case it doesn't work. If the GTX 760 doesn't work, consider the GTX 650/660 Ti or equivalent AMD graphics card for your graphics card needs.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

    Hi Tobbi,
    SL version 4. Reinstalled many times. Running Windows 7.
    Not sure exactly what version I was running prior to 3.6.6.
    Tried version 4 beta - didn't work. Found 3.5 and it works.
    When I run, I get the white screen with the dots going around in a circle forever (Silverlight loading thing). I could send you a screen shot, but I really don't want to go back to 3.6.6.
    I set a break point at the earliest possible place in my code and it never gets there.
    Thanks
