How do I track my stolen imac
    #21782149 - 06/09/15 08:33 AM (8 years, 7 months ago)

Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this topic, but I figured you'd all be tech savvy, so here's my question.
My iMac was stolen tonight along with my housemates laptop ( it's also a mac). We both downloaded the app 'find my iPhone' , her laptop is registered and  we'll get a notification when it goes online. Mine however isn't linked to iCloud, so isn't coming up on the app :frown: bummer.

What other methods could I use to  track down its location when it  goes online? Is there a way to locate its IP address or something?

All Apple devices have a serial number that is transmitted to Apple whenever someone hooks the device up to their iCloud account. So if you are able to prove that your Apple device with serial number so-and-so was stolen from you (you can find the serial number on the original box), Apple might be able to identify the IP address of the people who are in possession of your stolen computer if they link it to an iCloud account, if not their location and identity. Most sensible people also update their software, which in the case of the App Store application requires an Apple ID so Apple might be able to see your computer's serial number then as well.

All of this is only helpful though if you are able to prove that the device with serial number such-and-such was stolen from you, and if Apple is willing to cooperate with law enforcement to help you get your computer back. Being one of the most dickishly arrogant companies that has ever existed I wouldn't get my hopes up too high.

Thanks Crowley,

I still have the box, it has the serial number on it.  Fingers crossed.

install theft tracking software and set it up before it gets stolen.  this also works with iphones and droid phones.
