my iPod touch was stolen and needs locating somebody stole my iPod touch 5th gen and is to be found nowhere. to my knowledge "find my iPod" in on but is not connected to wifi since the thief does not know my password and can't get in to access wifi and everything else. so is there still someway to locate my iPod and get it back?
You can't locate the iPod unless it has some way of telling its location to you. This is almost always through Wi-Fi.

If there's no network connection, you can't locate it, and there's no way round that.
