Q: Stolen ipod, unregistered, can I get serial number

If one of the Nanos was the last device that you connected to and synced with your iTunes library, there is a chance you might be able to get the serial # to show up in the Device Connectivity diagnostic report. See here for instructions on running this test.

iTunes for Windows: Device Connectivity Tests

If you have previously registered the device with Apple, you can view it's serial # in your list of devices you have registered under your Apple ID.

If none of those help, I'm afraid you are out of luck.

Did you run the Device Connectivity test? I included a link with instructions in my post above.

If it was the last connected iPod to iTunes, it will show up in the report.
