I got my brand new lenovo thinkpad stolen yesterday. Literally bought it from the shops, and a couple of hours later had it stolen from my car!
I need to know if there's a way i can trace it? Or block it?
totally annoyed 4 being so stupid to leave it in the car! :/
You are an idiot.
Given that it is unlikely that you installed any security software on it, there's little you can do other than report is to the police and inform Lenovo (in case they get it back for repairs).
In the meantime, get yourself another laptop -- I doubt you're insurance will cover it given you left it in your car -- and be sure to install PREY (http://preyproject.com/).
Not unless you installed some kind of theft recovery software, like Prey. If not, you're pretty much screwed.
Next time, don't leave your expensive, highly portable electronics in your car.
No! You are not stupid for leaving it in the car a lot of us leave laptops, phone, tablets exposed to anyone eyes, i left my tablet in the SUV and expose still there when i came back, luckily, it's hard to trace it down because the person who took it will change the ip address, do a system recovery back to factory settings, if you have the serial no of the laptop turn it over to the police they might can track it down
