I've lost/misplaced my iPhone 4s but only have the serial number to work with. How do i find it?

Hello, I've lost my iPhone 4s which is black, contains 16gb and cracked screen. I have been looking in and out of the internet. Since i found my serial number can i somehow locate the phone? I know the app Find my lost iPhone. But only problem is i didnt connect it to my iphone when i had it. Its technically not my phone anymore (use it for my ipod)
HELP asap please
J

If you did not activate Find my iPhone then you've truly lost it. Unless, of course, you or someone else finds it? There is no way using the serial number and before you ask the IMEI number.

  • I have installed Lightroom 5.6 on my Mac, but now it is asking for a serial number, and I only have a serial number from LR 4; how do I find the necessary number?

    I have installed Lightroom 5.6 as an upgrade but am unable to proceed because it wants a serial number; how do I attain the needed serial number?

    No, I did not have to purchase the upgrade. But here is what I believe my
    error was: earlier today, I upgraded to LR 5.6 on my laptop. Then I
    upgraded to the same on my desktop, but became confused and installed it
    TWICE.
    Is this the reason that Adobe is asking me to license Lightroom and to come
    up with a serial number? (I have my serial # from LR4, but it does not do.)
    Should I try to deactivate LR 5 and then try again to upgrade to it?
    Or am I still confused and need to purchase the LR 5.6 upgrade? Thanks for
    your help.

  • TS3376 If you had not registered your device on the find my IPhone app, but you know the serial number of that device, could you still be able to track your device

    If you had not registered your device on the find my IPhone app, but you know the serial number of that device, could you still be able to track your device

    No, you can only potentially track it if you have Find My iPhone enabled on it, you can't do it via the serial number.
    If this isn't hypothetical, then if your iPad has been stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc. and contact your carrier.

  • I am getting the 'invalid personalization information' error when I start my photoshop cs8. I cannot find my original disk to re-install, but do have the serial number. Can I download a trial version and then enter my serial number?

    I am getting the 'invalid personalization information' error when I start my photoshop cs8. I cannot find my original disk to re-install, but do have the serial number. Can I download a trial version and then enter my serial number?

    If it is the first CS version then you will need to check out the following.  I believe it applies to CS as well even though it specifies CS2....

  • I lost my ipod touch 4th generation. I don't have Find My iPhone enabled on it, but I have the serial number. How can I find it?

    I bought it this year in February. I think I know where it is, but just to be safe... I'm going nuts trying to find it...
    I have the serial number, and Find My iPhone is on it, but I guess it's not enabled because it's not showing up on my iPhone. I tried doing the Find My iPhone online, but it's only locating my iPhone, which I have. It's the iPod I'm missing.
    Question is, can I find my iPod with just a serial number??

    Did you pass code locked it? If Find My iPhone is configured, you can do a remote wipe. Any way, go to the police and make a report, change your password in iTunes Store, really sorry, that's not much you could do. Is it authorize? If so you can deauthorize in iTunes when you select iTunes Sore under STORE (left panel) and click your Apple ID (top right)

  • I did not know about iCloud until after my iPad2 was stolen but I have the serial number so is there any way Apple/iCoud can help trace it when the thief logs into Apple's website /store etc? Thanks

    I did not know about iCloud until after my iPad2 was stolen but I know the serial number so is there any hope the thief can be tracked when he or she logs in to the Apple store etc? thanks

    iOS devices cannnot be tracked or located with just the serial number. Unless you shared your Apple ID and password with anyone, then your account cannot be accessed at the iTunes Store.

  • I lost my logic express installation cd, i have the serial number and support ID, what can i do?

    Hey guys!
    I bought a new mac computer and i wanted to install my logic express 9 on this one, but when i open the box i see theres no installation disk and i have no idea where it might be so is there anything i can do to get the installation? i have the serial number and apple support ID
    Thank you! hope anyone can help me out

    Apple apparently doesn't do email support. You could try sending an email to Apple corporate and see if it kicks up any dust. Otherwise, see if you can contact the place you purchased the software.
    good luck,

  • HT4061 someone stole my iphone and i dont have the serial number. how can i find my iPhone?

    someone stole my iphone and i don't know how to use the find my iphone app.  i don't have the serial number. can somone tell me how to find my iphone?

    Having a serial number won't help you track it.
    If you set up and activate find my iphone on your iphone, then go to icloud.com and sign in to track your phone.
    That is the only way to track your phone.
    contact your cellphone provider and local authority.

  • Hi, i have lost my iphone and do not have the serial number and IMEI number with me.

    I tried the edit > peference > mobile tab, but it only record my handphone number used.
    The support store does not reach Singapore.. What do i do?

    The serial number wouldn't have helped you anyway. The only way to locate a lost device is if you enabled Find my iPhone.

  • HT1349 I lost my Iphone 3GS and I have the serial number for my phone, Can I lock the phone?

    I lost my 3GS phone couple day ago, however someone tell me I can lock the phone in case if my information leak out.

    Sorry, serial number is useful for police record but not for finding your iPhone.
    If you have Find My iPhone configured, you can send a message, lock yor iPhone, wipe your info and even locate it using iCloud services but since you didn't, your chances are zero.
    What you can do is call your cell provider to block the number so you won't end up with a huge bill. Change all your passwords that you used on the iPhone. Report lost to the police.
