I found someones iPod

Yep...well my wife (God bless her) found some guy or gals ipod two weeks ago and only just told me today...she didn't know what it was/is...doh!

A pretty full track and playlist...this is someone who likes podding obviously.

No contact details, all I've got to go on is the serial number.

I've tried googling iPod lost and iPod found but these are pretty much stateswide...nothing for poor old blighty!

May try police and a couple of local bullitin boards.

Looked at the Apple store but nothing for lost and found.

Any ideas...or could this be treasure? Oh...er Hic! As usual.

i think if u email apple customer care it will show who the owner is.

#371166

Thanks Grim me old skip...will give it a go.

#371167

That's very nice of you, most people would just keep it. :P

#371174

You are a good man bh2.

#371253

omg that's so nice of you. <3

#371257

is the ipod rectangled shape, with an almost square screen and a circle underneath on which you have buttons? And on the back, is there a half eaten apple engraved? If so it's mine, I've lost it a few weeks ago :( please PM me for my address and phone number... looking forward to reading from you. Thanks in advance :D

God bless you bh2, you are a good samaritan...not many would do what you have... and I hope Apple (customer care) rewards you with a new iPod (preferable one of the new video ones hopefully to come) http://guides.macrumors.com/Gallery_of_Video_iPod_Mockups

on returning it.

If not, we oughta set up a donation website, and we'll raise enough to buy you one... :P

#371287

Cheers for that you chaps...hehe...I have one already.

#371290

It's mine, you can send it down to this address....

Just kidding, but I admire your honesty, I'd try to find the owner also.

#371377

Lets all be honest here. If we found it we'd be sitting on the ****ter jamming to our favorite tunes. :D

#371379

most likely you just found yourself a new iPod its highly unlikely that you will find the owner

#371384

well I hope you will find the owner. good luck.

#371477

hope the owner gets it back :)

#371482

I'd be very interested to hear if Apple would help you reunite iPod and owner. Could you post back here if/when you get a result?

#371491

I went all over the Apple site and had to phone..They had the serial but could not identify the owner because he/she hadn't registered..

So...a lesson here...Register your product and get a valid id and contact should be easy!

I will take care of it until the owner desides to post a 'lost' message. I will not give it to the police here. I have my reasons.

Any more suggestions?

Put up a found poster where you found it. Maybe the person will see it. Just make sure they know what songs are on the thing.

#371538

I'lll try it.

#371542

if someone claims it, give him/her a test say example, give some songs in a certain playlist etc. just to make sure.

#371599

Yeah...I tried them and a couple of others with no luck.

#371627

Just be careful of who you give it to. Whoever says its theirs ask them:

- What Generation is it/Describe the iPod

- what is teh serial number? (I have this written down)

- are there any significant marks, etc on it?

- what songs, videos etc are on it?

- where was it/could have it been lost?

And hopefully the owner will give you something in return... money, or at least some music.

#371647

Thanks Wuzzie...yeah I've thought of these...shame it's no photos on it.

I'll keep trying.

I'ts nice but I love my mini!
