Stolen iPod

Hopefully this won't sound like a totally daft question, but can a stolen iPod be tracked in some way if it's used to download iTunes?

unfortunately not although apple were talking a little while ago at adding features that will deauthourise an aipod that has been stolen so that it cant be charged ect but i have not heard any more about that recently., now is probably the time to treat yourself to a newer model with a learger hdd ect?

It was my son's that got pinched and he only got it recently. Never mind, we'll replace it and he'll have to look after it a bit better I suppose.

Thanks for the replies guys.

sympathies to your lad ......

I had my 'phone stolen (actually, my WHOLE HANDBAG!! )

and having got over losing my bag a little bit (still soooooo ANGRY with the thieving basstads!! ) I am just so pleased that I left my MP3 behind that day.

It's a pity that MP3 players lack the technology that would enable you to "register", it so that you would be able to block something like the equivalent of a mobile's IMEI number if it was stolen.

As I had registered my 'phone I was able to block both the IMEI and the SIM, so the bugger wouldn't have been able to sell it on hahahahahahaha

Tell apple the Serial. If it ever goes in for repair they'll know.

How likely is it that that'll happen?
