Disable control center if using Find my iPhone

If you misplace your iPhone and you go to use find my iPhone , it can send a tone as you know, but the problem is if someone has your phone they can use the !Control Center to put your phone in Airplane Mode'. We had someone that worked in a restaurant found the phone and then put it in airplane mode so it would no longer make a sound. The only way we got it back was because we showed the manager the map that show it was still there. So he ask each person to check, and one person said that they was going to turn it in, but forgot. But why did she out it in air plan mode.
So we no longer have it so you can slid up and use the control center if the phone is lock.

No.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

Forgot lock code on find my iphone. I lost my phone a few weeks ago and when it seems that it can never be returned i login to my account and put a code using find my iphone

I Lost my phone at the office building with more than 10different company and thousands of employees. since no one returned the phone and the device was already turned off i tried logging in and use find my iphone to send a message. But after days since no one is returning it i tried putting passcode on lock mode... And who would have thought that after a week someone will call me and told me that she will return the phone. But unfortunately i forgot the lock code so i cant use it. I dont want to restore it since my photos and videos are not sync to my itunes. if only theres a way that it would only just require my apple id and not the 4 digit code

There's no way to unlock it without restoring it.

Why pop up message comes now if i use find my iphone to locate my family phone added with same id

I was using find my iphone app to locate my kids as all my iphones were registred against one ID. They never come to know that I am locating their location and know where they are. Now I come to know that when i tried to locate them pop message comes to their phones that someone has tried to search your location. This is really not good. even if phone lost and other person can find out that we are trying to search the location. How to close this pop up messages or what is the solution?

Once again - check that out:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4006
"With iCloud and iOS 5 or later you can locate, play a sound on, display a message on and remotely lock, or erase your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac. If these features do not work as expected, use the troubleshooting steps below. "
Translation: if you didn't mess up by clicking "play sound" or "display message", then your kids just got you. They already disabled location services I bet.
Another translation if first was too subtle, there is no message if you just locating.

If it has been Disabled after entering the wrong passcode - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.
Unfortunately, you must restore it in iTunes on your computer. There is no way to retrieve a forgotten pass lock code.
You will need to Restore your device from the same computer that you most recently synced to. See - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.

HT1349 I lost/had my iPhone stolen. Tried using Find My iPhone and it's offline. It was set up. What do I do now? Do I report it stolen? What is the best way in getting back my iPhone if any? Thank you in advance.

Tried using Find My iPhone and it's offline. It (Find my iPhone) was set up. What do I do now? Do I report it stolen? What is the best way in getting back my iPhone if any? Thank you in advance.

Find My iPhone is good for misplaced iPhone but not good for thief and it was never meant to be.
You chance of getting it back is very small.
There are a few things you can try.
Try remote lock/wipe your iPhone through Find My iPhone.
https://www.icloud.com
You can report to the police, cell carrier (expensive cell charges for international calls, roaming etc)
Change all the passwords used in iPhone: Apple ID, E-mail, Bank Account ....

Can you use find my iPhone with iPad and iPhone and the same icloud account for both?

I have an iPhone and iPad. I use find my iPhone for both. If I use the same icloud account for both, how do I separate them on the map, or if I lose one and want to remote wipe the lost one but not the one in my possession?

It will list each device separately, I even have two macs along with my ipad listed

The phone will automatically re-appear when it connects to the Internet. However, don't get your hopes up, as thieves know this & will make sure your phone never re-connects so you can locate it.

How would i use 'find my iphone' to locate my husband's ipad?

My husband and i would like to be able to find each other's device, (iphone 4 and ipad) by using 'find my iphone'. We frequently lose each other.
How would we set that up?
Thanks!

On both devices, go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account (if you haven't already done so), then turn on Find My iPhone. After doing so, you can track devices by signing in with the iCloud ID that the device you are trying to track is using, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f2442. You can do this from a computer by going to icloud.com, or from your iOS device by downloading the free Find My iPhone app from the App store.

We have two iphones and only one ipad. We want to be able to use "find my iphone" for both phones, which have separate apple ids. How do we get our ipad to accept this?

We have two iphones and only one ipad - no mac. We want to be able to use "find my iphone" for both phones. How do we get the ipad to accept two iphone accounts? icloud is enabled on all three devices.

Also, be aware of the following:
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. Something as small as an iPod/iPhone should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

How do I get back my iPod if I can't use find my iphone and no internet on it?

I recently lost my iPod and I went back to go find it and it was gone, I filed a report on it being lost then stolen. The thing is I cant use Find my iPhone because I didn't have it on at the time. Also I reset my iPod because there was to much stuff on it. I never connected it to the wifi after i reset it. Please help.
I do have my serial number!

You did all you could. The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours IF it is recovered. Make sure you change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod.
