Can i install Find my iphone from my computer?

My ipod recently got stolen and its connected to icloud but i was wondering how can i track it? i already did find my phone but i didnt have it installed on my ipod when i lost it. My question is will it still work?

If you didn't setup find my iPhone on the device BEFORE it was lost you cannot track it.

  • How do i find my iphone from a computer?

    My iphone is registered, and I can find it from my iPad, but that's at home and I'm at work. Can I find my iphone from a computer?

    If you set up find my iPhone, then you can log on to me.com and locate it that way if it's on.
    By the way, did you really reply to yourself with the answer or is there something funky going on with the forums? This is now the 4th thread I've seen where the OP responded and I'm just sitting down to look this morning.

  • How can I install "Find my iPhone" on an old iPad 3?

    I've recently gotten a new iPad, but my old iPad 3 is still working fine. So I've done a complete wipe on it and I've given it to a friend who has little interest in computing: she just wants to email and get on the internet. My friend will have to undergo surgery next week and will take the iPad 3 with her to the hospital -- she'll be in the hospital for a week or two. Before she went, I wanted to install 'Find my iPhone' on the iPad 3 in case it goes walkabout in the hospital.
    However, when I tried to install it, AppStore insisted I upgrade to iOS 8, which I don't think the iPad 3 can pull off. I once upgraded to to iOS 5 or 6 and regretted that real soon -- the iPad 3 just doesn't have the processor speed to handle all that advanced stuff. It's doing fine on iOS 4 and I want to keep it that way. Is there some way to make AppStore install the old 'Find my iPhone'? I still have some backups of the iPad 3 pre-wipe -- could I extract 'Find my iPhone' from there and put it back on the iPad 3 without doing a full restore? Is there some other way we can keep track of the iPad 3 without updating?

    If you have iOS 4.3 on it then it's not an iPad 3 (they were initially launched with iOS 5.1 installed on them), it's either a first gen iPad (if it doesn't have cameras), or a 2nd gen : Identify your iPad model - Apple Support.
    The Find My iPhone app is used to try and locate other devices from it, it won't help you locate that iPad if it's lost. To be able to potentially locate and track that iPad you need Settings > iCloud > Find My iPad 'on' on it, but iCloud only became available with iOS 5 (so you won't have the setting on iOS 4.3). You will need to update the iPad (you can only update a device to the highest iOS version that it supports i.e. 5.1.1 for the first gen iPad, 8.1.3 for other iPads) if you want to be able to enable it

  • How can i install find my iphone on my iphone4

    hi all!
    So i bought two used/old Iphone 4 for my kids for our vacation at Disney..figured they could play them inline at rides and more importantly...i could use Find MY I phone to locate my kids when ( not if) they get lost in crowd /wander off.
    The iPhone have been upgraded to iOS 7.1.2 the latest it can
    But every time i try to DL the Find My Iphone app..it tells me it requires iOS8 ..which ofc Ver4 does.
    1. The iphone has been reset to defaults ie wiped .
    2.have tried deleting the app from library and DL it to my PC and synching it but same prob
    3. Have never DL any apps with this icloud id i made for son...but have enabled his acct to use family sharing so app initially appeared as being in library with all my other apps
    4. No i don't have old version of the app in recycle bin ( .ipa file)
    a) how can i force it to DL or manually install the ver 3 app? and where to get?
    because i now can see my kids new phone but its not sharing location..im guessing casue app not installed.
    Thanx!

    You use the app to track the phones from your phone or a computer. The app does NOT need to be installed on the phone in order for it to be tracked.
    In order to track the phone, just go Settings>iCloud and enable Find My iPhone.
    You may also want to enable restrictions and select "Don't Allow Changes" in the Location Services and/or Accounts sections. That will prevent them from shutting off Find My iPhone.
    Keep in mind that the phone must have an internet connection for Find My iPhone to work. The phone must be on wifi or cellular data.

  • Can you use find my iphone from a droid?

    son has an iphone 4s...mom has a samsung droid fascinate...can I find his iphone location using my droid?

    Works fine in IE for me
    However I can find my samsung with my iphone.
    But Apple dont seem to allow this the other way around.  When you access the icloud.com with a samsung it just says unsupported.
    Making the site to find my iphone restricted to certain browsers severly limits the benifit of this feature.  I may be just yards away from my iphone with my wifes samsung but can do little to find i without leaving the area to go home to the computer.  In the reverse situation I use my iphone to access samsungs site and tell her phone to lock, beep, and then go locate it.  Seems Apple only wants Samsungs found?
