Will apple ship a lost iPhone to the owner?

I found a lost iphone a whole ago. Before the battery could die-the new iphones now use a different style of charger, which I don't have- I contacted the owner. I told her where and when we could meet so I could return the iphone. But she said she was visit the area where she lost the iphone and doesn't know when she'll return. If I go to an apple store, will they ship the phone to the owner, even if they live in another state?

You can ask but I don't believe they will.

  • Will Apple make a smaller iPhone?  The 6 is too big...

    WIll Apple make a smaller iPhone?  The 6 is not ideal from me.  I need a phone with:
    - same screen size as the 5 -- or even the 4
    - Much longer battery life -- even if tha means a heavier, thicker phone

    The size of the 5 is ideal. If they could only make it thinner and improve the battery-life...
    And if only you would use the correct channel for feedback to Apple.  This forum is for user-to-user technical assistance, not for discussion of Apple's policies or procedures or to speculate about new product.

  • Will apple confiscate stolen/lost iphones?

    I lost my iPhone 4 CDMA back in April, and if it were to turn up in a store or be sent in for repairs or replacement:
    1) Would Apple confiscate the phone?
    2) Would Apple inform me of this recovery, and return the phone to me?
    3) Is iPhone 4 CDMA proven to be usable on another CDMA service provider (i.e. Cricket, etc)?

    I worked very hard to earn the money for this phone.
    I'm a 26 year old with hardly any education and hardly any future ahead of me.
    This is the first time I ever purchased a phone of this caliber, and I really love this phone.
    I even paid the full MSRP retail price for a replacement.
    If I recover the old phone, atleast I could sell it LEGITIMATELY to reimburse myself the full MSRP price.
    Before you start replying negative "Apple is not responsible for your stupidity" remarks:
    I am not asking for another phone for free or discounted,
    I am simply requesting for my previous PAID phone returned.
    Opinions?

    WOW!
    I didn't think of it that way. That makes so much sense on so many levels.
    A Verizon wireless representative, at one of their fancy new stores, told me: "If someone comes into our store with your (my) iPhone and tries to activate it, we'll try to stall as long as we can until the police get there."
    He claimed they'll try to confiscate the phone and get it back to it's rightful owner.
    Should I take this as an empty promise?

    I called Verizon Customer Support, and they claimed they black listed the ESN/MEID/IMEI on their network to prevent anyone from activating the phone, and if someone does attempt to, their network won't let them.

  • If i buy an iphone will apple ship it for me to Nairobi Kenya?

    If i buy an iphone will apple ship it for me to Nairobi Kenya?

    Buy it from where? To buy from the Online Store, you'd need to ship within the country that store serves. For example, if you buy from the U.S. Online Store, you can only have the device shipped to a U.S. address. If you go into a retail store, I highly doubt they will ship your purchae anywhere.

  • HT3529 will imessaging work on two iphones using the same apple id

    will imessaging work on two iphones using the same apple id

    It will. If the two phones are used by two different people, however, you will need to implement some careful management of your iMessage settings to ensure that you don't each receive each-other's messages. It is a much safer option to use different Apple IDs for each individual.
    On iOS devices, you are able to use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and Facetime, iCloud, and the iTunes and App Stores.

  • Will apple still take your iphone if you change the color of the outside if the phone?

    Will apple still take your iphone if you change the color of the outside if the phone?

    There is no other place to get the original screen/parts other than Apple. And Apples does not sell parts.
    As soon as a 3rd party opens/changes the phone parts Apple will be able to tell and won't accept a phone that isn't original.
    You will need to look at other options or buy a new phone at full price and don't make any changes to it.

  • When will apple start selling unlocked iPhone 6 in the U.s

    hello
    i searched in the UK store and the Australian store and the option for the unlocked iPhone 6 is available but the devices itself is not yet but the taxes are much higher and the phone is much more expensive from the U.S store
    when will apple start selling unlocked phones in the u.s ?
    thanks

    No one knows that at this point.  In the recent past, the unlocked iPhones started out as only available in the retail Apple stores and not by on-line order.  When they will be available or how has not been announced so far.
    Keep in mind that purchasing an iPhone in another country is not a great idea since the warranty is only valid in the country of sale so if anything would go wrong there would be no service or support in another country.

  • Will apple replace a broken iphone 5 lcd digitizer?

    will apple replace a broken iphone 5 screen/lcd digitizer for free?

    If you have AppleCare+ on it, you can file an accidental damage claim ($49, I think).  AppleCare+ allows two such claims.  But without AppleCare+, accidental damage is not covered under the basic one year warranty.

  • Will apple give me another iphone 5 if it has problems?

  • Will apple allow siri on iphone 4

    will apple allow siri on iphone 4 it should be because i have an iphone 4 and i dont want to replace it for iphone 4s so please put siri in iphone 4 on ios6 ad thanks

    No - this isn't possible now.  Some posts have explained that the 4s' better processor makes it possible whereas the iPhone 4 doesn't have the muscle to support siri.  I don't know if that's true or not.  But for now there is no siri on the 4.  Also, siri is still beta software.

  • Will Apple replace a bent iPhone 6?

    Will Apple replace a bent iPhone 6?

    They ought to.  I'm going to find out when I visit the store this week.
    The bend on my iPhone 6 is directly under the volume buttons. I noticed it today. I didn't believe this was a common problem. I thought it would only happen if abused. But my iPhone 6 is now bent. I have a case on it. I kept it in my purse, in it's own pocket, or on my desk at home.  Now I've got to take it to the Apple store and hope for a nice "Genius." The idea of having to pay for the damage, after taking good care of it and only owning it for 2 weeks, is really frustrating. 
    I hope everyone with this problem makes it known somewhere online because Apple ought to be responsible for the design flaw. Maybe they could reinforce that area in future production.
