"Is it possible to track my Apple Device with Find My disabled?: hello, I want to tell you about my lost devices macbook pro m2 and ipad air 5 wifi only. There was a theft in January 2024. I've tried to track it down and it seems like the thief managed to disable Find My Device on each device. is it possible I can get it again? Is there another way to find out where my device is?"

Troubleshooting a Lost Device:
A. Find My:
Alternatively to using Find My, you'l have to do so the old fashioned way. Find My can only be enabled directly on the iPhone. It cannot be enabled elsewhere. LoJack. One other option is a third-party service is available for certain products such as Macs. It is called LoJack. So, if you have that service, then see if you can find it that way.
B. So, what to Try:
- Dial it: See if it is heard ringing
- Ask Local Authorities: See if it has be hanged over.
- Text It: Ask whomever has come across it, to contact you.
- Ask Someone: See if someone you know (i.e. Friend, or Family Member) if that came across it.
- Backtrack your Locations: If you are at a coffee shop, or a library, stop by and see if it was safely placed aside.
