friends on a map. Just hope that when you find a particular pal, he's not the one who snatched
your missing iPad.
After all this labor, if the iPad mini is seemingly gone for good, click Erase iPad at the iCloud site to
delete your personal data from afar and return the iPad to its factory settings. (A somewhat less
drastic measure is to remotely lock your iPad by using a four-digit passcode.)
Meanwhile, the person who found (or possibly stole) your iPad cannot reactivate the
device to use as his or her own, or to peddle, unless he or she successfully types in your Apple ID.
Another new addition: Even if you choose to erase the device remotely, it can still display a custom
message with the information needed for someone to return it to you. If, indeed, you ever get your
iPad mini back, you can always restore the information from an iTunes backup on your Mac or PC
or iCloud.
We authors are always seeking a happy ending.
