    how can i find my imei number without my phone but got the origional number

    iTunes on you computer saves this information.
    Open iTunes.
    Open Preferences. (In Mac OS X, choose iTunes > Preferences. In Windows, choose Edit > Preferences.)
    Click the Devices tab.
    Position the mouse arrow over the iPhone name to display the numbers including IMEI of the backed-up device.

  • HT4061 How can I check a used Imac if is stolen before I buy it

    I am trying to buy an used Imac
    how can I check if this Imac is not stolen?

    Make sure the seller has prepared the iMac for sale according to this Apple document: What to do before selling or giving away your Mac - Apple Support.  If it's not prepared that way there's a good chance that use of the App Store and other features requiring  your Apple ID will be blocked.
    When it's booted up it should present the setup window as if it were a new iMac.
    If it's old enough that I would have come with Snow Leopard or earlier as the operating system make sure the disks that came with the iMac are included.
    I would not purchase one if it hadn't been prepared that way or unless I knew and trusted the seller so that if there are problems that pop up they can unlock them.

    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:
    This link, Re: Help! I misplaced / lost my iPhone 5 today morning in delta Chelsea hotel downtown an I am not able to track it. Please help!, has some good advice regarding your options when your iDevice is lost or stolen.

    Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.

  • How can I check in Itunes if Iphone is unlocked without simcard

    How can I check in Itunes if Iphone is unlocked without simcard, it is locked to AT&T and they confirmed they will unlock it... prevoiusly when I use to connect Itunes says something like this "Invalid sim" and it doesnt let me sync my phone which is not the case today, as it allows me to sync and let me show all details on the summary page and phone number is n/a
    Is this unlocked ? can you advice

    Go to http://iphoneoperatorcheck.com/ and enter your IMEI number (SN works fine) and it will tell you the lock status.
    Note the following with regard to the above;
    1) A locked phone will show as unlocked until activated after which the status will change to locked if the phone is locked to a carrier.
    2) Say for instance that the phone was originally locked to AT&T and you requested an unlock though AT&T. If your phone is unlocked by Apple following a request through AT&T, the status will continue to show as Locked to AT&T until you connect the phone to iTunes and do an update after which the status will show as unlocked. The status changes are almost real time.

  • How can i check my mails on the iphone and make sure that the mail wont pop up again on my computer ?

    How can i check my mails on the iphone and make sure that the mail wont pop up again on my computer/ will be deleted on the server ?

    For that kind of connectivity you need to be using an email account configured either as IMAP or Exchange.
    IMAP & Exchange accounts will maintain a sync across all your devices, so if you read / delete a message on your phone, it will disappear from the server as well. This cannot happen in POP email accounts.
    If your using gmail, instructions on how to set up exchange / imap are here http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&topic=14252
    Alternatively, if its anything other than Google, you will need to contact your email providor or IT department (if your email address resides with an enterprise environment) to get the correct settings.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I check my MobileMe mail & contacts from another iPhone?

    How can I check in on my MobileMe email & contacts from another iPhone or iPad, not my own? When I go to Me.com, the only option it offers is to set up the iPhone with my account -- which is NOT what I want. Is there a workaround or another path to login that doesn't force the "setup"' page on me?

    What a dumb decision. It would seem sensible that a mobile visitor to me.com should be able to proceed to the "regular" website and check mail, etc., through the web interface. Obviously -- well, okay, maybe not, but it puzzles me! You might be (as I tried, yesterday) vising the site through the browser on your wife's iPhone, which is already set up with an account there (and it would require cancelling her log-in and completely resetting her iPhone to proceed on the path Apple now requires!), or ya might be using a friend's iPad (my next attempt, a few minutes later!), or etc. etc. etc.  Ooops! Brick wall! No options.
    Seems like a counter-productive decision, one that's certain to be counter to common-sense needs and goals of Apple users; I can't be the first person to find this dead-end to be frustrating and contrary to expectations.  Okay, I have my rant finished, now.
    Apple, what was the problem that you were so determined to "fix" with this, ummm, feature? Howsabout a little tiny button hidden in greyscale that allows you to contine to the website, or a forcing URL that bypasses the mobile "set-up" interception? Help?
    Thanks, gdgmacguy -- full credit for the answer! Darn it!
    Oops, for some reason it credited ME with the correct answer. I'll try to contact Apple support to get it credited to you. This is apparently a screwup in my posting.

  • How can I check my passcode I updated today and when I am going to reset all content and setting my iPhone 4S they asked me for passcode when I entered the passcode the one I just update too is doesn't want to accept it

    how can I check my passcode I updated today and when I am going to reset all content and setting my iPhone 4S they asked me for passcode when I entered the passcode the one I just update too is doesn't want to accept it

    I have had the same problem with iPad recently not too sure why it happened but if you are completing a full reset anyway the easiest way is the restore via itunes on your computer and then set up a new passcode again. Resetting via itunes doesnt require a passcode so it should go straight through.
    Hope this helps

  • How can I check how many times or when an app has been re-downloaded on my iphone

    How can I check how many times or when an app has been re-downloaded on my iphone. I know how to check purchases but I am looking for how to check when an app had been re-downloaded on my device whether it's through my device or Apple ID

    You mention "lack of control" several times.  The control is there - you control the Apple ID and password that owns the app.  No other Apple ID can use the app.  You have not shared your Apple ID or password with anyone, so you and only you own the app.
    Therefore, the number of times the app is downloaded or re-downloaded is completely irrelevant.  You might, for example, decide to purchase a new iPhone or iPad and download the app there.  Or the app developer may issue a new version which you download.  None of this matters regarding your "control" of the app.  All that matters is that you own it and nobody else can use it.

Maybe you are looking for
