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.

    I lost my iphone 4s several days ago. Can i track it with only its IMEI?

    Many thx!

    No, you can only track it with Find My iPhone. If you did not turn it on, and did not have iCloud signed onto the device, there is no way to track it. Follow these instructions for a lost or stolen device:

  • How can i locate my lost iphone?, how can i locate my lost iphone?

    how can i locate my lost iphone?

    The only way to locate/disable/erase 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.

You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.

    - Go to icloud.com, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and send the iPhone a message of where you can be reached.
    Otherwise, the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPad and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPad (it erases it) using it.
    - Apple will do nothing

  • Is there any way that apple can locate/track a lost iPhone? The tracker wasn't set up and switched on.

    Can I track a lost iPhone without having set up and turned on the tracker on iclouds?

    Sorry, there is no way to track a lost/stolen phone by IMEI number. Apple provides Find My Phone, but it must be turned on/activated before your phone was lost/stolen. If not, there is no way to track your phone.

    How can I locate a lost iphone 4 verizon?

    If you activated Find My iPhone, then log into www.icloud.com and you can try to track your device. If you did not activate Find My iPhone, you cannot track it. Also, if the device has been turned off, not connected to wifi, it cannot be traced either, and will show up offline in iCloud.

  • HT1976 How can I find my lost iPhone 4

    How can I find my lost iPhone 4

    One way is through the Find My Phone application but provided that:-
    1) the iPhone is connected to the internet (be it by way of Wifi OR data); and
    2) you have previously activated the feature.
    Then again, even if the above conditions are true, you will most probably only get the rough location of the phone and not the "exact" location of it.For instance, if the iPhone is in a high rise building with 60 floors, you will only know it is in the building but never which floor it is.
    Unless you are carrying your laptop all around, activating the Siren would assist you in finding your iPhone.
    Good luck (Taken style)

    How can I locate my lost iPhone 5 with find my iPhone app ? Plus someone tried accessing my apple I'd on FaceTime on an unknown number related to iPhone 5 is this who's got my phone and can I track a number ?

    If you activated the Find My iPhone service (in Settings>icloud), and if the device's batteries still have a charge, the device is not turned off and has not been reset and is connected to wifi, then you can try to track it.  Using a computer's browser, log into icloud.com and look at the Find My iPhone page.  On a device, invoke the Find My iPhone app (get it for free at the itunes app store) and log into the icloud account.  Note:  The Find My iPhone **app** does not turn on the service, you can only do that through Settings>icloud.
    If the device is listed as "offline", then one of the requirements listed above is not met (like being connected to wifi, or if the device was stolen and the thief reset it).

    How can I locate my lost iPhone 4s? I have my serial number. But I don't know how. please help me.

    The serial number will not help you locate it.
    IF you turned on the find my iPhone feature on the iPhone itself, then go to iCloud.com
    If you did not, then you cannot locate it.

  • HT204074 I have our music collection on iTunes Match for my PC, ipad and iphone.  Can I share that music collection with my wife so she can play that with her iphone?  Even though she has a different Apple ID from me?

    I have our music collection on iTunes Match for my PC, ipad and iphone. 
    Can I share that music collection with my wife so she can play that with her iphone?  Even though she has a different Apple ID from me?

    Her iPhone will need to be set up to iTunes Match using your Apple ID to be able to share music via iTunes Match. Otherwise you'll have to download the music to your computer and then copy those tracks into her iTunes library, assuming hers is separate.
    Regards.
