Delete Find My iPhone
Hello, I thought I had lost my iPhone and Find my iPhone since I sent the order to clear the phone but I've found. Is there any way to cancel that order? thank you very much
No. As soon as it connects to the network, it will be wiped. Once you start it, you can't stop it. Just let it wipe in and then restore it from your backup.

Will everything be erased from my iPhone if I 'erased iPhone from find my iPhone'?
My iPhone recently stopped wroking because the lock button didnt work anymore, but I didn't find out until I took it to get fixed. I called in to my provider to get a new one (but they weren't able to send me a new one, so I still have the same one) and they told me to go to icloud.com and erase iPhone from find my iPhone. I got it all fixed but I'm worried that once I connect my phone to my iTune library it's going to erase everything on my phone. Is there anyway I can cancel the request to erase? It says

What if I delete find my iphone app, will it still delete everything?
Yes..
The FindMyiPhone app is for finding your iPhone (or someone else's iPhone). If your iPhone is in your hands, you really don't need the app to find it. -

HT201365 Since I updated to the OS 7 I cannot use my Apple ID to remove Find My iPhone
Since updating to OS7, I lost access or iMessage and Face Time. It would not acknowledge my apple password even though it works in other areas. When I tried to reset my iPhone, it asks to delete Find My iPhone from iCloud. It won't let me. It won't acknowledge my Apple Password when I try to delete it. I've changed my password and it still does not work. I tried updating both OS 7.0.1 and 7.0.2 and that did not help.
You're welcome. I'm not sure what else to suggest since you indicated that you have already changed your password and it still isn't accepted. I'm afraid you may need to contact Apple support for help at this point. If you want to do this, go to http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/, then 'Account and Setup', then perhaps 'Troubleshooting iCloud Account Issues', then 'Continue'.

I recently changed my apple ID after I deleted my old email address which is no longer recoverable. I cannot get the find my iphone app to work. When I log in to try and change my apple id to the current one, or delete the account, it asks me for my password to the old email (apple id). I have no idea how to change this to be current. The password for my old apple id will not work and I am going in circles. When I log into the app and use my current apple id it does not locate any of my devices. They all say they are offline but are not. Any suggestions or help on how to unlink my old apple id to this app??
Hello Fatboy896,
You may need to temporarily change your Apple ID back, sign out of iCloud on your device, then revert the change to your Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.

For some reason the iCloud account on my iPhone has reverted to an old Appleid. I now can't get rid of it for the above reason--I can't turn 'Find my iPhone' off since that old appleid is no longer active and I don't have access to the email address since its from an old job. I am in a catch 22. I can't move for
If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I have lost my iphone 4s and want to use find my iphone app on my boyfriends iphone 3s to delete the info on my now lost phone. Do i need to log out of his icloud inorder to log into mine to do this on his phone?
You need to use the Find My iPhone app (in the itunes store - free). When invoking it on a device, you enter the ID password of the account the lost device is connected to. You can also use a computer's browser and log into icloud.com.

I have an old iPad2, and received a new iPad Air. When I set up the iPad Air, I started as a backup from the iPad2, instead of treating it as a new iPad setup. It also asked if I wanted to set up Find My iPhone and I said yes. Problem is that I also (previously) changed the primary email address on my iCloud account, but never changed the iCloud setup on my iPad. So now the iPad Air has iCloud pointing to the email address as the account name. I want to just delete this account and enter the new email, but Find My iPhone won't let me - it asks for my password first. Problem is, it won't accept the correct password because the primary email has changed.
If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I recently changed my Apple ID to a new email address. My old one still is in my phone, and cannot be permanently deleted as it says that Find my iPhone is still on. I can't turn it off because I do not have the password to my old "deleted" Apple ID. If you can help, please do! Thank you very much!

Hello Sammy,
Thank you for providing the details of the App Store issue you are experiencing. To be able to purchase or download apps again, you may need to update your billing information. It sounds like you do not want to associate a credit card with your account, so you may be able to select "None" as a billing option in your account settings.
You can find steps to update your billing information in the following article:
