After you wipe out your ipad using icloud,can the person who stole it still find a way to use it?im so sad...my air is gone.
can my ipad air still be used if I have wiped out all its contents using icloud...I got robbed on Friday,im so sad
No. If find my iPhone was turned on, Activation Lock kicks in once wiped. The device cannot be restored or accessed unless the original Apple ID and password are entered.
It is a shiny brick to anyone but the original owner.

Yes, he/she just have to force the iPod into Recovery Mode.

I've had no luck finding it . I ALWAYS have it in my back pocket in school , but someone got smart and decided to take it . I kind of narrowed it down on who stole it , well... not really. I have a passcode on it ... Is it possible that Apple can still unlock it for them ? I really want it back cause my parents are low on money.. Anyways thanks xx
No. However, all they have to do is place the iPod in recovery mode and restore via iTunes. That erases the iPod and sets it up as a new iPod. There is no way to find it or prevent anyone from using it.

Error message on ipad when we tried to download images to computer. 'Itunes has detected an ipad in recovery mode. You must restore your ipad before it can be used with iTunes. It downloaded some images prior to this message and we selected skip any files with errors.
Ipad now just showing apple image with power cord. Don't want to click restore and lose all data.Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

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:

I called the police and they told me they were there to escort me off the premisies. The person who stole my iPad was actually helping me buy accessories for yea go ahead and laugh im not happy. I called my carrier and they said there was nothing I could do. I could not use my insurance or upgrde to a new device. They said the could suspend my account until april but that is absolutely ridiculous. Please help
Help you do what? We can't get your iPad back. Do what the provider said, suspend your account. Get a new iPad and sim card then turn your account back on with the new sim card.

I received an ipad with seminar materials on it at a recent seminar. Now I want to add apps, using my app account. But when I try to do that, the app store says my ipad is registered to the person who put on the seminar. How can I fix this so I can use my ipad.
Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap on the previous user's ID and sign out. Then tap sign in and enter the information for your ID and password.

my iphone4 disconnecting calls after 3 rings and show these calls as "missed calls" while the person who calls me still hear a dial ring. this started to happend after i upgraded to ios 7.0.4 please advise
this is really frustrating since i cant pick up calls with only 3 rings and i always miss them
i tried to restore like 3-4 times, didnt help
even tried to set the iphone as a "new iphone" on itunes and it didnt helpGenerally, when going out of the country and using a foreign SIM, carrier files can be changed. Go to Settings>General>About>and look at Carrier? What does it say? You may have to perform a restore. You can try a restore from a backup, that would reinstall the iOS, and would provide the latest AT&T carrier file as well. See if this will fix the problem.

who do i contact to get my iphone blacklisted so the person who stole it will not be able to use it
Contact your carrier to see if blacklisting the IMEI is a service they provide.

My ipod touch's speaker where you listen to with your earphones doesn't play the person who is sing
I have an ipod touch 2 i believe that is which generation. I have a problem where you put the headphones in..when i put them in they play the background music/ the durms.guitar.etc...but it doesn't play the person who is singing. but when you shove it it as hard as you can and hold it ther it will somewhat play the person singing. What do you think the problem is?
You probably have a build-up of lint in the earphone receptacle which is preventing the earphone jack from going in all the way. If you can carefully clean this out with, say, a paper clip this may cure your problem.

i want to text my friend who recently moved from out of state but i have a restriction and she has a new number, would the person who put my restriction on my phone be able to see who i text if i text her on her Imessage account or no? i really miss her!
There is some issue going on with multiple people related to the Facebook for BlackBerry notifications. You're not alone in that respect.
Not sure if the issue is with Facebook or the application, but I'm leaning towards Facebook since it's pretty much sucked on my PC the last several days, too.

What do yoou do when your iPad freezes up. My iPad is plugged in each night and is connected to Wi-Fi. This morning the following message appears:
iCloud Backup
"This iPad hasn't been backed up in 6 weeks. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi."
I press OK and it does not budge. I try to power off. The red arrow appears but it does not slide to power off. The iPad has simply frozen on the home page.
MikeTry resetting it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then releasing. You won't lose any data by doing this.

My iPad 2 3G + WiFi was stolen 2 nights ago and I unsuccessfully tried to track it the day after, realising it was offline. However it was still named under what I had called it at that time. Just recently though (2 hours ago) I checked and the name had been changed. I'm guessing this means that there is still some connection between my iPad and iCloud (Find My iDevice), but as it stands it's currently offline. Does me receiving the name change mean that there could be a possibility that it will go back online in the future and will be able to track? Or will iCloud just be notified of the name change while the actual device is wiped clean?
if they disable or delete the app then you also can't track it or if they restore it to factory settings
name change have little to do with it
contact the police
