Q: Solution to still use Find My iPhone for "old" iPods?
Hey everyone,
I manage a few K12 classroom sets of iPods (generation 4) and I foolishly updated all relevant apps in the iTunes library specific to our iOS project...I should have read, yes, but am more than frustrated that Find My iPhone no longer functions with iOS 6 as this "old" generation of iPods is not allowed to update to iOS 7. This was a piece of our security on these devices which no longer functions. And unfortunately the file version for Find My iPhone no longer exists in my iTunes library after I updated it and updating the file in Apple Configurator seems to have sealed my fate...
Just hoping that I have missed something obvious or that someone has a nice work around (like a copy of the "old" Find My iPhone file)...
Thanks.
iPod touch, iOS 6.1.4

I doubt that removing the app would remove the iCloud settings as well, though I can't say it's impossible. The app is absolutely not necesssary, though.
Regards.
