Broken iPhone, is there any way to remotely disable imessages

I broke my iPhone so while it's off getting fixed for a couple of days, I want to be able to receive text messages on my replacement phone. Is there any way I can remotely disable iMessages so I can get text messages on my non-Apple replacement phone?

Is there any way to remotely deactivate an installed copy of Photoshop CS5?

I had Photoshop CS5 installed on my laptop. The hard drive recently crashed and had to be replaced. Because it crashed suddenly, I was unable to deactivate the install. Is there any way to remotely deactivate it so I can install it on the new hard drive? I have a Student copy so it can only be activated on one computer at a time.

When I bought it, I was told Student versions could only be activated on one computer at a time.
Told by whom? Be handy to verify that info at a link on the Adobe website.
It's always been max 2 activations for educational and retail to my knowledge.

"Note that these policies work exactly the same for Adobe’s Education versions – there is no distinction for those… However, one major difference in restrictions for all the Student and Teacher Editions is they can be run only on the customer’s privately-owned computer(s)."

I have lost my Iphone is there any way to track it?

The only way to locate any lost/stolen iPhone 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.

Sure. You can do it on a Mac at the following website: https://appleid.apple.com/account

The hard drive on my laptop died, so i have lost all my music. It is saved on my iphone, is there any way to transfer it across onto my new laptop? Or does itunes keep a record of my purchases?

You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

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 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:
This link, Re: Help! I misplaced / lost my iPhone 5 today morning in delta Chelsea hotel downtown an I am not able to track it. Please help!, has some good advice regarding your options when your iDevice is lost or stolen.

It pays to be proactive by following the advice on using Find My Phone before you lose your device:

If you had photostream turned on from the iphone, then they may be there.
Otherwise, no.

I've lost my iPhone,is there any way of tracking it if I don't have "find my iPhone"?

If you didn't set up "Find my iPhone" there is no way. Notify your carrier, your insurance company, police, and change any compromised passwords.

If you have a backup of your computer, here's the location of the iTunes backup folder:
Where are iTunes backups stored on your computer
The folder where your backup data is stored depends on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your data-backup routine. iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
The "~" represents your Home folder. If you don't see Library in your home folder, hold Option and click the Go menu.
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press Return.

Does this computer have gps (my daughter's was just stolen), is there a way to remotely disable it?

does this computer have gps (my daughter's was just stolen), is there a way to remotely disable it?

First off, I'm sorry to hear about the theft of your daughter's computer. The good news is that all Apple computers have their serial number in multiple places (depending on the model) and Apple maintains a list of every one of them. Do you have the serial number? If not, you can get it from the retailer you purchased it from.
As far as GPS and disabling it, it is going to depend on several factors but the short answer is probably not. I mean, Yes, there is a a way to detect location in most modern Mac's through a web browser using Geolocation (W3C API) but there is no onboard GPS; disabling the machine remotely would require you to have 'Back to my Mac' already set up on it from iCloud. There might also be some third party tools available that I'm not aware of.
Again, I'm really sorry to hear about the stolen computer. I'll keep an eye on this thread to see if you have any other questions.
BTW, what model and year is the computer that was stolen?

Is there any way to lock the iMessage settings?

Is there any way to lock the Imessage setting on an Iphone so my Childred dont have access to my texts on my their Iphone?

This means you and your children are sharing the same Apple ID for iMessage.
You need to get your own Apple ID to be used for iMessage on your iPhone. You can continue using your existing Apple ID for iTunes store purchases.

Is there any way to permanently disable(not usable) your iPod touch while you still have it?

Is there any way to permanently disable Itouch 4th gen

Only password on lock screen and restrictions for certain apps could be helpful in that case.
But restoring will remove this protection and delete all data, so make sure that other people can not take your iPod away from you.
Other than that, no.

Is there any way programmatically to disable the screen shot capture using Home power button in the iPad device?

Hi Team,
Is there any way programmatically to disable the screen shot capture using Home + power button in the iPad device.We need to avoid the screen capture option due to security reason.
thanks ,

Hi Peace, Clyde,
Thanks for information. Using the API UIApplicationUserDidTakeScreenhotNotification (iOS7) send the notification after the screenshot taken. Using this api is it possible to block the screen shot caputure option.
Thanks and Regards,

I have sold my IPhone 4 and forgot to delete Apple ID , email and wipe the IPhone, is there any way to do it other then "find my IPhone app"

I Have changed my Apple ID password but that won't help as all my notes, messages, emails etc are on there, is there any way to wipe the IPhone without having it anymore? I can't erase the IPhone though "find my IPhone" app as I didn't download it on that IPhone. Thanks

Go to icloud.com. Log in with your Apple ID & Password. Go to the Find My iPhone section. Perform a remote wipe of the device.
You don't have to have downloaded any app. You only have to have enabled the Find My iPhone option under Settings > iCloud. If you did not do that, then you cannot remotely access the device.
If that's the case, then change ALL of your account passwords; email, banking, etc. All of them. And then monitor those accounts very closely!
