can I find my computer with the locator if it is turned off?

I cannot locate my Mac Book Pro. I bought it last fall. Its fairly new. Its the model that came out just before the mac books with retina display. But i have tried locating and tracking it with the find my iphone serivice on icloud. But the computer is dead and turned off, and my question is- can It still be located or tracked.

Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.0.x), help!

Not if Find My Mac is off and/or the computer isn't turned - that will only work if it's connected to a network and the computer hasn't been wiped and/or Find My Mac disabled on it.


If you think that it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on it e.g. on websites/emails/notes/documents etc.
