What to do if your MacBook is stolen
Practical steps, with clear limits on what a registry can do.
Use your existing owner tools
Check Find My with the Apple account already linked to your Mac. Available features depend on the model, connection and settings enabled before it went missing.
Protect access
Review your account sessions, payment information and work access from another trusted device. Notify your employer or school if they own the computer.
Save the identifier and report
Keep the serial, receipt and incident details. Submit a device report with evidence. Do not confront anyone or share account verification codes.
