  • HT203421 How do I get iphone apps in the mac app store? Also, my apps from my iphone will not sync to my mac. Why is this?

    I've had my iphone 4 for a couple years, but I've recently purchased a new macbook air. For some reason, I do not have the option of syncing my apps from my iphone to itunes. I am currently running ios 6 on my phone, but I don't want to update until the apps are backed up to the computer. How do I resolve this? Also, is there a way to download and/or update iphone apps from the mac app store?

    Connect the iPhone and iTunes will open automatically. Then, go to iTunes menu (on the menu bar) > Devices > Transfer purchases, and all the content downloaded from the App Store and the iTunes Store will be transferred to the MacBook. Note that in iTunes 11 you can choose the iPhone at the top right part of your iTunes window.
    The Mac App Store is used to download Mac OS X apps, and the App Store is used to download apps for iPod touch, iPad and iPhone. You can't download apps for iPhone from the Mac App Store. Instead, you can download them from iTunes or from the iPhone

  • Why can't i see "Find iPhone" App under cellular data so I can turn it on?

    Why can't i see "Find iPhone" App under cellular data so I can turn it on?

    We have cell data plan.
    I have other phones (4s) and can see "Find Phone" App under Cellular Data and can turn on/off.  But the problem phone does not have "Find IPhone" to be able toturn on/off.  I made sure app is running when i go to Cellular Data. I guess the question is why do Apps show up under Cellular Data to be able to turn on/off?  I thought if the app was made for Cellular Data it automatically showed up under Cellular Data.

  • Can the Find iPhone app find devices that aren't mine?

    So my MacBook Pro was stolen a couple weeks ago out of my rental car while I was in Seattle, WA. I had iCloud on it synced with my iPhone, but never used it or saved anything to it. Someone told me that I could find my stolen computer though iCloud, but when I read up on it it I was under the impression it would only track other devices from a computer, not the other way around. Anywho, I bought a brand new MacBook Pro today and setup iCloud on it. i then downloaded the Find iPhone app for my phone and two MacBook Pros appeared as my devices. My brand new one named "Jeff's MacBook Pro", and the other under somone elses name. A location was given for mine and I was able to lock it and send messages from my phone. The other one could not be located and the messages are still pending to be sent. Is it possible that my MacBook Pro appeared since I still have it registered under my name on apple.com or could this just be someone elses?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Some macs will continue to be tracked even after Find my phone has been disabled, but it has to be turned on first
    Did you enable Find My Phone on your macbook before it was stolen.

  • Download ios 7, and the location function is off, I can not access because I forgot the key constraints, I can not restore the iphone because I can not find iphone app access

    download ios 7, and the location function is off, I can not access because I forgot the key constraints, I can not restore the iphone because I can not find iphone app access

    If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the device from the computer to which the device is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the device into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:
    http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
    If your device is running iOS 7 and you set up Find My iPhone (iPad/iPod),  however, then it has the Activation Lock on it and you'll need to enter in your Apple ID and password to activate the device after restoring:

  • TS4006 Have iCloud doesn't have find iPhone app can I still locate my fone?

    Have iCloud doesn't have find iPhone app can I still locate my fone?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
    If the device is wiped by you or another, you may not be able to locate the device (although some have reported they can)

    You sould be able to sync both ways.  Check your default calendar on your phone by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>scroll down to the calendars section to Default Calendar.  Check to be sure you have selected your mac calendar as your default (and not, for example, On My iPhone).  Then enter a new event on your phone and sync to confirm that it appears on your mac.

  • Find iPhone App Issue

    Hello,
      I am using the Find iPhone app for a few weeks now and works perfectly on my iPhone 4S, and iPod Touch but can;t located my iPad 2 ever.  Its a WI-FI only iPad 2,  It always says "No location available".  I don't get it because all the location services are on Even the Find My IPAD location Service is ON of course.  Everything works are are as GPS on Compass app and in my MAPS app finds me in seconds.  But won't work on Find iPhone app.  I have the same application my my wifes IPAD 2, and it finds her iPhone 4S, iPod, and even her iPad 2 without a problem.  Only my iPad 2 has this issus.  Any ideas what in the world could be different from her iPad 2 and mine?  Save OS same erverything else from what I can tell.
    Suggestions?  Ideas??

    Yes, all devices are under the same Apple account.  I have an iPhone 4S, iPod Touch, and this iPad2.  Finds everything on the device listing and its location except my iPad 2 which says NO LOCATION AVAILABLE.  I have heard people tell me it might take a while to work, or sometimes it server issues.  This has been going on since I downloaded the APP weeks ago,  I even reset the whole iPad 2 back to its original settings when I first purchased it and restored all my apps from iCloud thinking that would work.  Nope, still can't located my iPad 2.
    My wife has her own Apple account with all her devices iPhone 4s, iPod and her iPad 2 and everything is found without a problem when she uses her Find iPhone app.
    Setting all are the same,,, everything turned on as far as Location Services.

  • What does it mean when a lost phone stops showing up on device list on find iPhone app?

    What does it mean when a lost iPhone stops showing up in device list on find iPhone app?

    That means:
    The battery is dead
    The phone has been turned off
    The phone is no longer connected to the cellular network or a WiFi network
    The Find my iPhone service has been turned off
    The phone has been wiped.
    The bottom line is, it means you're probably never going to be able to locate it unless you can physically find it.

  • I left my iPad on a plane - find iPhone app says offline

    I left my iPad on a plane powered completely down. When I use the find iPhone app (which had always worked in the past) it lists the iPad, my iPhone, and my iPod. When I first open the app on my phone, it says my iPhone is "this device" and has a green dot. It says my iPod touch is "locating..." then eventually goes to "offline" (because I have it off). For the missing iPad, it never says "locating..." it only says "offline" immediately when I open the app. I had just updated to iOS 7.0.2. I have the four digit code on the iPad but is it possible that someone wiped it clean already and that's why is says offline without even trying to "locate" it?
    Any help would be very appreciated.
    I already filed a claim with the airport and the airline - I am just debating if I should erase it or wait and see if someone responds to my "lost mode" message and calls my cell.

    You don't sound stupid to me at all.  Everybody has forgotten something of value or significance somewhere at some time or another.  It is no fun at all when it is something of this value and your chances of getting it back are so slim.
    I would really encourage you to use a passcode from the beginning with the next device though - it really is the only true security you have for your material on a mobile device.  Anything you can do after the fact is never as good as having the device secured beforehand.
    Also be sure to check with the airline in case you are lucky and it turns up in their lost and found (some airports and airlines actually have brick and mortar stores to sell all the stuff left behind and never claimed - there is a big one in Atlanta for example with everything from clothes to jewellery to golf clubs to cameras and laptops).
    Also check your home owners or renters insurance policy to see if they cover such items while traveling (mine does, but the deductable is also $500 I think).
