Elements no longer lists or finds my iphone 5s as device for import

The past 2 weeks, when I try to import photos from my iphone 5s, the device list cannot find my iphone. This happened in a prior version of elements which is why I bought the new version elements 11.
I need to understand if there are settings in elements or my iphone that suddenly keeps it from being found.

I Just checked back and finally it said 30 hours remaining...Hopefully that shortens

My girlfriends iPad has been stolen and wiped as it no longer shows on her devices list in find my iPhone. Is there anyway it can be traced by the serial number?

Can anyone help me, is there a way to trace a stolen ipad by the serial number? It seems the thief has wiped the ipad as it no longer shows on her devices list in find my iPhone. Can the serial number be used to trace it once it is set up on a different Apple ID?

No.

Device not listed in find my iphone after updating my apple id password

how to track my iphone5 that is already lost and when i sign in icloud my lost device is not listed in find my iphone after updating my apple id password. i also enabled icloud and imessage and facetime in that iphone using my current apple id that i used in icloud. pls help me

If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it. 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 iPhone on your device. Then 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. You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account. You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

My iPhone 4s was stolen almost a week ago now. If I can still see the phone listed in Find My iPhone but appears to be turned off does this mean the theif has not restored it to factory settings???

Are you sure? I have other devices at home. The only way I can make them disappear on the tracking list is by turning off location or resetting to factory settings.
I just want to make sure I'm not tracking a phantom that I will never recover :-(

Strange device in list in Find my iphone app

I have just found strange device in list in Find my iphone app, how can this happen? Whom can I contact to check this?

Hi Bucknamc,
I would recommend doing one of two things:
1) As Gail suggested, go to Settings > iCloud > Find my iPhone, and turn it on. If you are going to do this, you should also go to Settings > General > Restrictions on your child's phone, and select "Don't allow changes to accounts." This will ensure your child does not enable other iCloud functions, which would cause your data to appear on each other's devices.
2) This is a better solution, in my opinion, since it does not involve sharing an Apple ID. If your child has their own Apple ID (you can create one at http://appleid.apple.com), you can download the Find my Friends app and add them on there. There is also a setting in the Restrictions menu to prevent Find my Friends from being turned off. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-friends/id466122094?mt=8

Have you tried getting the password reset via http://iforgot.apple.com ?
If you can't get your password reset via that page then try contacting Support in your country, they should be able to reset it for you.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
What you mean by 'buy and create a new id', it's free to create iTunes accounts. But until you've logged out of your existing account, you won't be able to log into a new account.

New iPad Air 2 with a persisting blank screen. Support site suggests a restore after turning off 'Find my iPhone' on the device. How can I do this with a blank screen?

New iPad Air 2 (December 2014) with a persisting blank screen. Support site suggests a restore after turning off 'Find my iPhone' on the device. How can I do this with a blank screen?

Thanks JimHdk,
After a little more searching across various online resources I was able to cure it by holding down the home button and the on/off button for 10 seconds to restart it and it all came back with a clear screen.

HT201365 can i clear my device with find my iphone if the device is switched off

can i clear my device with find my iphone if the device is switched off

I'm kinda guessing here, but your phone was stolen and you want to lock it, but it is showing offline? You can send an lock request, and a delete request, but if it is offline, it will not be received until the device goes back online again. If the device has the latest iOS on it, and Find My iPhone active, then it cannot be activated without your Apple ID and password. It will be a brick. And, if they try to activate, it will connect to the Internet and you will be able to track and the erase will activate.

Jez lost my i5S. Used Find my Iphone app but device is offline. It is TouchID n password protected. Wl the person who picked it up be able to find a way to unlock it?

Jez lost my i5S which is TouchID and password protected. Tried using Find My Iphone app but device is offline. Can the person who picked it up find a way to unlock it?

thx for replyg Chris. Do u mean even if the "thief" tries to send it in to an Apple store to "restore as new", it cant be done and the device is rendered useless to the "thief"?

IPhone 3GS no longer shows in Find my iPhone

I just up dated my iPhone 5, 4S, and iPad 2 to iOS 7, now my 3GS (ipod use only) no longer shows in the Find my iPhone device listing. Any ideas why this may be?

I have the exact same problem. And my wife's iphone 5 also has the same problem. Anyone knows the resolution? It worked fine before we restored both phones. Thanks.

I don't get email notifications when using find my iphone from another device.

When my husband uses the app "find my iphone" to locate my where abouts, I no longer get email notifications. He uses my user name and password. I believe he dismantled that feature somehow. Is that possible?

I think it time to change your password... or husband

Is there a reason Find my iPhone is not working for either iPhone or iPad (iOS5)?

Neither of my Apple mobile products can be seen by Find My iPhone. They show up as either "No Location Available" on the iPhone (it can't see itself or the iPad) or as "offline" on the computer iCloud app.

Since you have iCloud on your iOS devices, it should be available on your Mac now.
Open System Preferences > iCloud and select: Find My Mac
If your Mac is lost or stolen, follow the instructions here > What to do if your iOS device is lost or stolen
