How to find Stolen MacBook with iCloud
- by user1518089
My MacBook Air was stolen about 6 weeks ago. Through iCloud and "Find Phone", I have some pictures and a location down to about 2 blocks. The pictures are from the current user taking photos which automatically appear on my local devices. (Yes they probably saw my pictures until I stopped taking them. Yes, they are stupid.)
I was thinking about going there and hanging out until I recognized the current users, but it is in a very bad neighborhood and I would be noticed. The police have not done anything.
Yes, the MacBook can be locked or a message sent. I am hoping to get it back.
Does anyone have ideas on how to track them down? While Find Phone shows their location, it does not report an ip address. Is there a way to get an ip address?
Does Facebook face recognition work on strangers?
Come on tech geniuses, help me play detective.
It does not have Drop Box installed.
