    If you have a lock code, how did someone change the apple ID for "find my phone?"   You should go by the apple store and let them help you.

  • How to find my Iphone 4g without setting up icloud ID on my Iphone?

    Please help, argent.
    Any idea to find my Iphone 4g without setting up icloud ID on my Iphone?

    xtar,
    The Find My iPhone function is for LOST phones.  Not stolen phones.  All the theif has to do is turn off your phone for your phone to not be able to be traced. 
    You have more chance of winning the lottery than you do of getting a stolen phone back.
    Notify your carrier, notify the authorities, and change the passwords to any account you may have had on your phone.  Move on with your life.  There's really nothing more to be done.

  • Recently my ipad and iphone 5S were stolen - is there any way to track them if İ had not yet installed find my iphone?

    My ipad Air and ıiphone 5S were recentşy stolen from my apartment.  They are relaticely new and I had not had a chance to install the Find my iphone app.  HOwever it is in my cloud from my last iphone.  İs there any way to track these two devices?  İs there a standard GPS locator on the newer models?
    Thank you for your time!

    If you did not activate Find my iPhone when you set up the iPad/iPhone, there is no way of tracking them. Having installed the Find my Phone app is not necessary and it is irrelevant as that app is for tracking other lost iDevices.
    Log in to your iCloud account via the iCloud website. Do you see the stolen devices? Do the show up on the device list? If so, the Find my Phone is active and you will be able to track them if they connect to the internet. If not, they are gone.

  • Apple id format for using find my iphone

    Hi,
    How do i use my existing apple id for setting up the Find My Iphone? the set up screen says to input the apple id as [email protected], ie in an email address format, whereas my apple id is not in the [email protected] format. it is only xxx.

    You need to change your old Apple ID to one with an email address. Here is some info from a FaceTime document (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4319):
    Ensure that the Apple ID you are using to register FaceTime on iPod touch (4th generation) is an email address. If your Apple ID is not an email address, you can change it on appleid.apple.com. This article provides instructions on how to change the Apple ID.

  • Hello my iphone was stolen a the person he set up find my iphone and he deactavited it so how do i take his stuff of so i can use my iphone4

    i need my iphone4

    I assume you mean that you had not set up Find my iPhone, because if you had the thief could not have.If it is registered to his Apple ID you are out of luck. If you bought the phone new and have proof of purchase you can take it to an Apple store and they may be able to help you. Otherwise you are out of luck.

  • How can i enable my iphone4 to request my PassCode before it will Power OFF, in case it's stolen, so that "Find my Iphone" will still be of Use?

    can anyone tell me how i can set my iphone4 so that i can't turn it off without first entering my PassCode? at the moment i need to enter it after it has been asleep for a while, but NOT if i turn it OFF. that's ok for everyday use but not so good for when it gets stolen, as my sister recently discovered because the 'Find my Iphone' facility doesn't work when the iphone is switched off. the thief may just turn off the phone and dump it in the next ditch, but there is no chance of recovering it if the phone can be turned off without having to enter the passcode first. (ever other phone i ever owned before needed to have the passcode entered, if it was enabled, before it could be switched off).
    so, if anyone knows, could you please give me instructions on how to enable my iphone 4 so that it will ask for my passcode before switching off and if it isn't entered it will not turn off?
    i would really appreciate your h

    Not all thieves are really intelligent, but still ...
    Why would a thief steal your iPhone if the intent is simply to turn it off and toss it in a ditch?
