Lost iphone - wants to use the Find my iphone feature
I just lost my iphone 4 and I wanted to use the Find my iphone on it, but i laso just discovered that my wife's phone is using the same icloud account so when clicked on the Find my iphone, it is finding "her" iphone. How can I use it to find "my" iphone
If your phone is powered on, and has an Internet connection it will automatically find it when logged into that account in the Find my iPhone app.
The fact that it didn't appear suggests the phone is off, has no internet or Find my iPhone is not turned on in it. -
My iPad was lost today. I am using the Find My iPhone app, but it is not showing on the device list or the map (though my iPhones, even one that is not iCloud enabled, is). What can I do?
The only thing you might do is enable Lost Mode, which will allow you to set a passcode on it (as well as a message and phone number where you can be reached) so it will be locked when and if it does go online. You can also receive an email informing you if it goes online so you can track it on icloud.com. See http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f0165.
In the meantime, you may want to change your passwords. -
I lost my Iphone 4, but I was able to find it using the find my Iphone app on another apple device. However, when I try to actiavte it, I am asked to enter a PIN to unlock my SIM. But, I don't know where to enter the PIN. Please help me. Thankyou.
Contact your cell provider.

I have lost my iphone 4s and want to use find my iphone app on my boyfriends iphone 3s to delete the info on my now lost phone. Do i need to log out of his icloud inorder to log into mine to do this on his phone?
You need to use the Find My iPhone app (in the itunes store - free). When invoking it on a device, you enter the ID password of the account the lost device is connected to. You can also use a computer's browser and log into icloud.com.

If you didn't enable the Find My iPhone function, then you can't track the iPhone. But it sounds like you did have it turned on, if you're seeing that it's listed in the Find My iPhone app or on icloud.com. But are you sure it's the same device? If you had a previous iPhone, and the name of both iPhones was the same, it would make it difficult to know which phone was which, even if they both were listed.
In any event, an offline device is not trackable. It could be offline because A) it has no power or B) it is not connected to the internet via cellular data or wi-fi.
Until it comes back online (and it may never), then it cannot be remotely tracked. -
Help! I thought I lost my iPhone. I activated the Find my iPhone app. I have now found my phone but can't get it to work. Can someone tell me what to do to reactivate my phone? Many, many thanks if you can!
I have lost my iphone,and did the same thing as you and activated the Find my iphone app unfortunately i haven't yet found or got it back,to reactivate your phone you will have to call apple support contact them to unblock your phone.

I would like to know what is accessible on an iPad that has been stolen and Lost Mode has been enabled via the Find My iPhone App.

... but they aren't answering my questions.
[1] Did I lose the ability to track the iPad now that I've selected to Erase it?
[2] Or can I stop that since its "Pending"?
[3] Also if there is a way to access the iPad and be able to Rename it and access Camera why are they continuing to ask for my password?
[4] if they can do that what's stopping them from being able to access other features on the ipad?
It is my understanding from these documents that if it is on and connected to the internet you can track it. In there it tells how tell if it is online by the color of the dot.
Read carefully, it is all in there
I still think this person is bluffing, but what confuses me is how this person knew how to contact you (?) You must not have had any security on it at all when lost.
Likely nothing (see #3)
If it were mine, I would erase it to make an expensive paperweight out of it and call it lessons learned - that is if at this point you still can, punch the button!
I can only go by what the Apple documents have told us, as your situation seems totally unique to any I have heard. -
How can I turn my ipod on remotely so that I can use the Find my Iphone app (sound mode) to find it
I have a ipod 5 gen and I lost it somewhere around the house. I've used the Find My Iphone app, but it indicates that its offline. So I'm guessing it ran out of battey or its turned off. That's why I am asking if theres anyway that I could turn my ipod back on in order for the sound to be played from FMI app. Thanks alot for any future help.
You can't, When off it is dead
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.

- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

Do I need to leave location services on all the time to use the "Find my iPhone" app?
Do I need to leave location services on all the time to use the "Find my iPhone" app?
The Find My IPhone app is used to find OTHER lost devices, it does nothing to make your device "findable". To make it findable, you must turn on "Find My IPhone" in settings. And than you need location services on. This however does not guarantee that you'll always find it if lost. A thief can set it to factory settings, even remove the sim card. Then it'll be unfindable.

Can I use the Find my Iphone app on Itunes?
Hi, I was wondering if i could use the find my iphone app on itunes, i do not own any other apple device except my phone.
Welcome to the Apple community.
You can use the find my phone app on your phone if you want, however there doesn't seem much point, since you will have it in your hand when you are using it and therefore know where it is.
You can enable the find my phone feature through settings >Icloud, and then track your phone at iCloud.com, should it be lost or stolen. -
How to use the find my iphone feature?
I lost my Ipod Touch 4 at school but i did not have the find my iphone feature turned on so I couldn't track it. Is it true that you can use the find my iphone app on another person's apple device to track yours? How?
No, you have to either have the Apple FindMuPhone/iPod feature turned on or installed a third-party app. The iPod musy also bo connected to the internet.

Is there any other way to find and iPhone besides using the find my iPhone app?
Been trying to find my iPhone using the find my iPhone app and have had no luck. Also added the AT&T Family Map and have had no luck. It just makes me so mad that somebody you thought was your friend would do something like this. Can anybody HELP!! Would really appericate it.
From what I have read, you obviously have an idea or are sure who has your device? As roaminggnome says, report to the police, and give them this information if you are sure of it.

I accidentally erased my phone while using the Find my Iphone app
I accidentally erased my phone while using the Find my Iphone app. Now im trying to unlock it as my phone is also sim locked but this is the message that comes up :
"Your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting Your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes."
This keeps repeating and there doesnàt seem to be anz alternative as iTunes isnàt letting me connect either.Hi, susanfergu.
