Can I track down the recent devices attached to my Apple ID account?

My account was compromised by multiple devices that show up under my recent devices. Is there a way to track down these devices to prosecute the owners?

Hey underoath77,


If the device has Find My turned on, they should appear on the iCloud map. The Locate a device in Find My iPhone on iCloud.com page explains it thusly:


"Locate your device


  1. In Find My iPhone on iCloud.com, click All Devices. Select the device you want to locate. The name of the device appears in the center of the toolbar.
    • If the device can be located: It appears on the map so you can see where it is.
  • If the device can’t be located: You see Offline below the device’s name. The last known location is displayed for up to 24 hours. Select “Notify me when found” to get an email when it’s online again.
    • Note: If you turned on the Find My network, you can use the Find My app on any device that’s signed in with the same Apple ID to see your device’s location, even if it’s offline. The last known location is stored for up to 7 days. See the Apple Support article Use the Find My app to locate a missing device or item.
  1. To locate another device, click the name of the current device in the center of the toolbar to access the Devices list, then select a new device.


If you’re no longer using a device, remove it from your account so it doesn’t appear in Find My iPhone."


Something else to think about is account security. You can find out what to do If you think your Apple ID has been compromised here. Some additional tips on Security and your Apple ID can be found on this page.
