Can I tell if someone is using my Find my iPhone?

Today at 2:08 AM I saw the GPS indicator on my phone.
I went to check and got this (see picture) the Find My iPhone had the purple icon which means: a purple location services icon will appear next to an item that has recently used your location
My question is who? it was not me. Is there any way to find out who logged in or from where?

No, you really don't understand how Find my iPhone works. In order for Find my iPhone to know where you are it must use Location Services. If it didn't, when you went to locate your iPhone using another device with the app or by logging in to https://icloud.com/find it would have no idea where your phone was. So it periodically checks your location. That way it can also tell you where your phone WAS, 10 minutes ago, for example, even it is now out of range.
HOWEVER, if you shared your Apple ID you made a big mistake. You should NEVER give your Apple ID and password to anyone else for any reason. Even someone you know and trust. As you did you should change your Apple ID password, verify that your security questions have not been changed. And probably add 2 factor authentication to your account. And NEVER share any password with anyone again.
I have been in the computer field for 40 years. I've had passwords of various kinds almost since the beginning. And I have never told anyone any of my passwords. Even when my IT department needs access to my computer, I enter the password for them. And they understand and approve. After all, they don't want the responsibility if my account was ever compromised.

Can you tell which number is used to call your iphone?

I have 2 numbers, my iPhone and then a Google Voice number that rings on my iphone.
Is there a way to tell which number someone is using when they call me? There caller ID is THEIR number, not mine. Looking at all the information, I don't see how to tell which number they are calling me with (preferably real time).
thanks
bob

Not really. The only option is to change your Google Voice caller ID settings.
Caller ID (in)
Display caller's number
Display my Google Voice number

Can't verify Apple ID to use with Find My iPhone

Has anyone else experienced this problem? I've been trying to activate the Find My iPhone on my phone (following instructions from here: http://www.apple.com/iphone/find-my-iphone-setup/). But my iPhone keeps popping up a box saying:
Verify Your Account
This Apple ID's email address cannot be verified. Change your Apple ID's email address at appleid.apple.com to sign in to MobileMe.
I then logged onto appleid.apple.com and tried to verify the email and it too said it can't. It's my personal email address that I use to log into iTunes and other stuff. Why would it not be able to verify it? It's a Gmail account and it's typed correctly.
I posted this question on Apple's forum and got no replies. Thanks.

I had this exact same problem with my daughter iPod touch and I knew I was doing everything correctly because I had already done 2 iPhones and 2 other iPod touches the same evening. After trying for about 3 hours and just getting frustrated I decided to take it to Apple the following morning. What I found out is when i did the last update it missed adding a couple of "packets" so all that had to be done was a complete reset (on iTunes) which completely wiped out everything she had on it and then I just did a sync to put it all back on. Only tok a couple of minutes and everything was perfect after that. It sounds like the same thing happened to you. Oh by the way Apple said that I may have just lost internet connection for a brief second and that is what probably caused it.

TS3376 Can anyone tell me how do I get find my Iphone working on my windows PC

Hi does anybody know how to get find my iphone working on my windows PC. Even Icloud for that matter.

You can't set up Find My iPhone on a PC. You can only set it up on an iOS device or Mac (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f0c67). You can, however, use Find My iPhone from your PC to track a device with Find My iPhone enabled on it by going to icloud.com, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f2442.
Also, you can't sync your Windows XP computer with iCloud. iCloud requires Vista SP2 or higher (see http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html).

How can you tell if someone is using your signal?

I am wondering if any of my neighbors have hacked into my network. My security is turned on, my be I'm just paranoid.
Thanks

Welcome,
Run the Airport Utility, click on the base station and view Wireless clients. this will give you the MAC id of all connected clients.
I also use iNet to list clients (available for OSX or iOS - I have both)
If your router is wireless as well you'll need to use the admin pages to see if anyone is connecting to that.

How can I tell if someone is tracking me through my iPhone

I have an friend who seems to always know where I am. I think she's using the GPS in my iphone to determine where I am. On top of that, I have seen text messages I have sent from my iPhone to others pop up on her iPad as soon as they are sent. She seems to always know what is written in my emails...personal stuff like emails from my parents discussing my relative's death and subsiquent small inheritance I will be recieving in a private account. She can connect through my wireless and I leave my bluetooth on because I use it for my hands free when I'm talking on the phone. This stuff isn't limited to my Apple products (iPhone & MacBookPro), but also my Dell desktop. Obviously, I've changed my passwords but I think she can track those changes. Is there some tracking software that she could be using? If so, how can I find it and remove it? Thanks

Change your Apple ID password. And all your other accounts while you're at it. She doesn't need any tracking software if she knows your account login information.

Can you tell if someone is logging on to your computer remotely?

can you tell is someone has downloaded dodgy programs to maybe spy on you?

you can effectively change your system password if you think this is happening. if you change it, they shouldn't have access to your computer however you never know.
some things that will give it away are deliberate mouse movements when you're not using the computer, the camera on your mbp to flash a green light meaning it's taking a picture or applications like iTeleport connect and other VNC type clients running in activity monitor.
There is an app called "hidden" that will trace your information (it's used to recover a stolen computer) but it's tell tail sign would be the camera turning on and off unexpectedly.
what makes you think someone is spying on you?

Can you tell if someone has tracked your device?

Can you tell if someone has tracked your device?

Nobody can track your device without your AppleID and password. If someone else knows your password, they could have used Find my iPhone to track your device. Change your password if you suspect this to be the case.

how can i tell if someone is logging into my find my iphone account and how can i find out who it is? Can I add a second layer of password security for Find My iphone?

Nobody can log in to your iCloud account unless you gave them your password. There is no other way.
If you shared your password with someone (not a good idea) and no longer want them to have access to your account, change the password and don't share it again.

HT3529 how can you tell that someone read your text message?

How can I tell if someone has read my text message?

Text messages, i.e. SMS or MMS, do not have a "return receipt" feature. iMessages, however, do. If you're sending via the Messages app, your friends need to turn on the "Send Read Receipts" option in the Messages settings on their iOS devices.
