Block my lost iPhone

I have lost my iPhone 4S and would like to know how to block it so know one can use it, i've got the IMEI, but don't know how to block it?

No matter where you bought it from, you can contact whichever provider of the SIM that was inserted in the phone at the time of the loss/theft.
If you already sent a wipe command and it was successful, then there is nothing else that you can do. Apple does not block phones, only network providers can do this, and this is only accomplished in certain areas. It depends on where you are from if the carrier will blacklist an IMEI.

Is there any support form Apple to block the lost iPhones through IMEI

Hi,
We spend a lot to go for only iPhone but is there any support form Apple to block the lost iPhones through IMEI. I lost my iPhone4 IMEI No xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Ofcourse i have no hope to get it back. but still just a try.
If apple does not have such features yet, they should initiate the same at earliest.
Thanks,

Apple does not block/track lost/stolen iPhones, nor does any other phone manufacturer. Blacklisting of phones is done by the carrier, so contact yours to see if they offer such.

You would have to have set up "Find My iPhone" in your iCloud account, and use that same app on another computer to synced to your iPhone to block it.

is there's away to find my lost iphone, or block while I've installed icloud, but I am not sure if find me option is on, in the meanwhile blocking it while it's not connected to internet wont work, what's the suggestions?
There are none. If the find feature of your iPhone's iCloud account was not enabled, it is not findable at all. And if it has run down the battery, been turned off, or otherwise has no network connection it is not findable either. If someone has it and has restored it as new, then it is also not findable remotely.
In any of those cases, you have no options but to look for it yourself, report it to the police and your carrier. If it was not secured with a passcode lock, you should change all your online passwords immediately.

How to block my lost iphone 4s, how to block my lost iphone 4s

I lost my iphone 4s. Can it be blocked through the serial number?
My question is this: I know someone else has it. It was tracked through Find my Iphone. How to prevent it from being used ever again? Is there a service that would permanently blocked and unable to be used? Or anyone could just pop a new chip and ready to go? Since the device is registered under my Apple ID, no one else should have access to use my lost device, but me!

any update ?!!!

No. Not in the U.S. unless you use a CDMA carrier. If you do, report the loss to the carrier.

How can I track my lost iPhone device?

What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen
iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular. 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:

How to undo the search actions since i found my lost iphone

No, once activate, there's no turning back.
You can restore from backup with the computer iTunes you usually sync.

I want to blocked my lost iphone5

Please help me i want to blocked my lost iphone5... what will i do?

As you have been advised, you should contact the carrier. Your response implies that you do not want to do that, and that's your option.
" i have a feeling that I know the person who has my iphone now."
We don't know this person, so we can't show up at the person's home. But, since you know ho it is, you can. You can also contact the local police.

Can I report my lost iPhone's SN or IMEI to SP or Apple?

Can I report my lost iPhone's SN or IMEI to SP or Apple to deactivate all services?
So whenever someone pick up my lost phone and connect it to itune or register it on Apple, Apple will know this is a lost phone.
And do not proceed any action on the phone.

haha.... your joking right? You think they would actually do that? NOOOOO its not possible to do what your are saying... you should have updated your iPhone and registered it to have Mobileme which would in turn give you the ability to use the "FIND MY iPhone" application. Where you could find your phone, lock it, etc... it's too late now. You've already lost it.... you have to sign into the phone with your mobile me account and activate the find my iphone with mobile me.... Your just too late...
I don't mean to be blunt . But its always easier to do things when you have a system in place. Apple provides a way for people to locate, lock, send a message to the device, and even remote wipe it if need be. The only problem is that you cannot activate it now because you had to have already activated it before you lost your iPhone. When you get your new iPhone you can be sure that the first app you install will be the Find my iPhone app and mobileme until iCloud is fully released. Your only option will be to call your carrier and report it as stolen but you can bet that they will not locate it due to privacy issues. Itunes cannot block the Device ID, think about how many ex gf's or bf's that could simply say someone stole their idevice when it in fact was just the scorned lover's way of getting back at them.... and apple shuts the device off.. not cool!! So yeah again, I hate to be the one to tell you but the only way to track it would have been mobile me.

HT5012 How to block may stolen iphone

I want to block my stolen iphone 5

The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords, especially your Apple ID/iCloud password NOW!
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, and running iOS 7.0, then phone cannot be re-activated or the passcode removed without knowing your Apple iD/Password. It will be nothing but a useless paperweight.
If not running iOS 7.0, the phone can be forced into recovery mode & restored.

How can i track or block my lost iphone5

how can i track or block my lost iphone5

If you enabled Find My iPhone, you can log into www.icloud.com using your AppleID and track or block it (assuming it's still turned on and connected to a network). If you didn't enable Find My iPhone, you can't track it.

Why can't i view on iCloud what is on my lost iPhones? i can see how much GB's they are taking up but can't click on the data to see what it is..

Why can't I view my icloud backups on a new apple device using the same icloud id? Unluckily I lost 4 iphones in 2 yrs. all had same icloud acct on them, so when i log on to locate my current iphone on my macbook or on new iphone, it shows a list of all the lost iphones and their data take up.
When i click on settings on my ios> go to icloud > storage & backup> manage storage:
LOST IPHONE 1- 4.5 GB DOCUMENTS & DATA : it shows PREVIEW 1.2 MB PAGES1.6 MB TEXT EDIT91.6 KB PHOTOS 3.2 GB
LOST IPHONE 2- 3.2 GB DOCUMENTS & DATA: it shows same thing just different gb's mb's kb's
LOST IPHONE 3- etc.......
but you can't click on those documents & data to show what exactly they are so you can move them or save and delete. If I go into icloud there's nothing there from that long ago. is that data deleted? if i were to get that certain iphone back and turn it on would the pics, docs still be in icloud? it says all that room in my icloud is still taken up so where can i view it?? anyone know??
THANK YOU!

If you haven't already, you could force-quit Quicktime by using the menu option from the desktop (finder) and choose Quicktime.
Not sure what you have frozen on the screen, be it a failed movie, or some unusual screen shot. If you can find by date (created) you may be able to look for .mov or quicktime suffix name or other video file content to delete it.
And you may have to restart your computer and perhaps run repair disk permissions from Disk Utility's first aid on the hard disk drive in your computer.
Not sure if all that would help now, but it is something a few days late...!
Good luck & happy computing!
