Q: Lost iPod

May 18, 2012 2:11 PMby lllaass,You can only track it by icloud.com if you turned the FindMyiPod feature on and wifi is on and connected. Otherwise you will have to find it the old fashioned way.
See:
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
iCloud: Troubleshooting Find My iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac
Inform the police and change the passwards for all accounts used on the iPod
Apple will not help.

I've heard of this happening in the past. Once it's registered to you, nobody else can use it with Apple or purchase anything on iTunes because they do not know your password.

May 18, 2012 5:15 PMby lllaass,As I said in my first reply, Apple will not do anything.
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
The above includes this statement:
"Apple does not have a process to track or flag lost or stolen product, "

Totally incorrect. All that is necessary to use it is a "Restore as new" from iTunes on any computer.
