Is it possible to track the device installed on FACETIME?

Hello,
My device is stolen and wanted to know if it is possible to locate the device using FACETIME?
This option would open the device, and when I call to EMAIL through another device has regular ring,
A person can not turn off this option because there is an access code to the device.
In addition the device was not installed FIND MY IPHONE, but I think there is an active wireless
The FACETIME another device was calling.
Device was not active Sim, Is it possible to locate the device via IMEI? Or any other way

iPhone 4, iOS 6.1

The only way to find a lost iOS device is to use the Find my iPhone app or www.icloud.com. For this to work, you have to enable this feature on the lost device prior to loss. If you didn't do this, there is no way to find it. Neither Apple nor your carrier will find it for you.


Here's a good tip from Kappy on what to do if you device is lost or stolen:

Cars have serial numbers, too. They're called a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). That still doesn't mean that the manufacturers have the infrastructure in place to track them. You can get systems for your car that enable you to track them (e.g. Lojack). Should you fail to take that step, you can't track your car.


Apple sells you a product. They have no responsibility for what you do with it afterwards.



There is nothing to argue, Apple can locate the device 100%

Please provide proof of this statement.

Actually, Apple, apparently, does have the ability to track any iOS device, anywhere in the world. They have been working with the NYPD to help catch thieves of iOS devices. Whether a pilot program or test is unknown. What is known is that the NYPD furnishes Apple with IMEI nimbers of stolen iOS devices. Apple then tells the NYPD where these devices are located...even if the carrier has been switched or the device taken out of the country. The NYPD has made arrests, using this info, outside of the country.


Again, whether a pilot program or test is unknown. It is also unknown if Apple is working with any other police dept. anywhere else.
