No. Find my iPad/iPod is worthless once the person 'restores as new' via iTunes. As I understand it, Find works on the name of the device, not its serial number. So as soon as they restore as new 'Ed's iPod' becomes 'Mary's iPod' and the find program no longer sees it.


The Find program can work if you....left your device at your friend's house and it's on his/her internet and it reminds you where it is. It is relatively useless to find stolen devices since it is very easily defeated.


Hope you get it back.
