Find My iPhone keeps disabling on its own?

Its a verizon iPhone 4S running 6.1.3. Find my iPhone under the iCloud settings keeps disabling itself. it doesnt even ask me for permission. It just randomly does it on its own. It usually turns off in a day or 2. I've seen it turn off in hours though. Could it be something I did? I've tried putting on restrictions and disable account changes but its as useful as a calculator on an english test. Has anyone had this problem?

I have a 4S as well, and am with Fido in Canada, and I'm having the same issue where my iPhone suddenly loses all of my calendar and notes information.  My "find my phone" feature disables on its own as well.  I still have my contacts, and everything is still on icloud when I sign in using my mac, but they are deleted on my phone.  Maybe it is due to large gaming (or other RAM-eating apps).  Whatever the issue is, it's certainly annoying!
I've tried just backing up my phone using iTunes instead of through iCloud, but it's not as good at keeping files up to date if I lose them.  I never had this issue before iOS7.  I would backup through iTunes, and sync all my devices so that I wouldn't lose most of the data.  Now, the data isn't lost; it's just not STAYING on my phone.  Get it together, Apple.  I like you a lot, but I had higher expectations from you.

  • HT201365 why does my iphone 4s and my ipad turn the "find my iphone app" off on its own in icloud?

    any help would be appreciated

    If the phone is offline there is no way to track it or send a message to it.  You can place it in lost mode to lock it and send it a message (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165), but this will not take place until the phone goes back online, if it ever does.  If it does, you will get an email informing you.

    If you don't have Find My iPhone  on, you can't lock it. You should report it to your carrier and your carrier might blacklist the phone from use.

  • My MacBook keeps restarting on its own....

    Hi everyone,
    My MacBook Pro (2010) keeps restarting on its own and i get the grey message upon restartup that my computer restarted because of an unknown error, or something to that effect.  I actually have taken it to Mac Hollywood, an authorized Apple repair facility but they were totally useless and said they didnt encounter that problem although I insisted that it was an issue.  Anyway, they grudgingly replaced the hard drive but after getting it (clean install) it happened again before I even got the setup complete!  Can anyone please please help me??  I do have the latest crash log and can post it to make it easier and hope that info helps.  Thank you in advance

    Thank you Clinton for such a fast reply!  I actually did purchase AppleCare and even forwarded some logs to AppleCare support, but they all insisted it "probably" is/was a hard drive failure.  Even that authorized center didnt find or even suggest that my MacBook has any problems at all!  I will definitely let AppleCare know that a wise forum member mentioned to watch out for a GPU problem!
    Thanks so much!

    my itunes keeps opening on its own without me opening it, it will happen again and again even after i close it. how do i fix it to make it stop doing this as it is extreemely annoying

    If it is doing it while your device is plugged in, it is because it is set to automatically sync. Please go to: Preferences>Devices, and select the option to "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically." Also, I hate to be "that guy", but you spelt extremely wrong. Just a pro tip.

  • IPhone 3GS reboots on its own

    My iPhone 3GS restarts on its own, this happens 2 to 3 times a day, any know bug causing this?

    You didn't state your iOS version. There is something corrupt in your phone, possibly a bad app or setting.
    Assuming you haven't hacked or jailbroken your phone, try these steps as needed:
    1. Restore your phone in iTunes using a backup.
    2. Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
    3. Restore as a new iPhone, without a backup but syncing all your apps.
    4. Restore as a new iPhone, adding 3rd party apps one by one.
    5. If still rebooting, there is a hardware problem that needs evaluation by Apple.

    What do you mean "update X"? What update are you referring to?

  • IMac keeps restarting on its own

    My IMac keeps restarting on its own. It never really gets to the desktop when it restarts. Everytime it starts over, it gives me a message stating that it restarted because of a problem. I'm afraid It might be infected with some type of virus (if it's at all possible). Iupdated the OS to Mountain Lion a few days ago could that be the reason? I also tried to download some programs but erased them before installing anything. Could it have been me? Did I get my baby sick?

    Much to my dismay I don't have Applecare (that will change soon).
    GeekSqad at bestbuy was not able to help, despite the $170 buck I dished out so I'd get help for the next 2 years.
    Called applecare anyway (cause bestbuy know very little about Macs) and even though I don't have their service, after hours of trying different things, we couldn't fix the issue anyway. Later, on my own, I went ahead and re-installed Mountain Lion from the restore menu (command+R) and the computer seems to be working fine. Hope this helps someone else.
    Thanks again Mr. Boyd

  • HT5345 how if my iphone is disable?its stated that i have to connect to iTunes.what should i do?

    Connect it to iTunes.

    my iphone is disabled and its saying connect to itunes

    OK... Stupid question... have you try doing as it suggests and connected it to your computer running iTunes?

  • My iphone was stolen and now the find my iphone is disabled on it. i have personal infos on the apps and own music in the music app and i need to make sure they're secured or erased :((( carrier blocked the phone

    Help me please I want to make sure the thief couldn't open the phone and the apps and the music since it all carries personal information and are very important to me. How do I make sure the phone can no longer be used for anything?

    If the carrier blocked it, that just means the SIM card in it can't be used to make calls or access the data network.
    A 4 digit passcode can obviously be broken. How easily depends on the code you used and whether the thief knows anything about you. In all likelihood, the thief couldn't care less about your data. They want the phone, which has real monetary value.
    Next time, turn on Find my iPhone.

  • My iTunes keeps opening on its own HELP!!

    I really need help here. I have Googled this for a while now, and I can't find any fix. My iTunes will just spontaneously open on its own, sometimes it'll play the first song in my library and other times it won't. This has been going on for a few months now, through multiple versions of the iTunes software. Currently, I am using version 10.5 on Snow Leopard (OSX 10.6.8). I do not have plug ins that interact with iTunes installed anywhere on my computer, nor do I have widgets for iTunes. I do have devices I connect to iTunes, but I've disabled the Wi-Fi sync, thinking that was the culprit. It actually seemed to work at first when I did it, but now the problem is back in full swing and I've now gotten to the point where I need to store the iTunes app in the trash so the computer no longer has access to open it. I tried entering in "killall iTunes" into Terminal, based off a suggestion I read somehwere else, and it of course quits the program, but then iTunes just opens up again 5 seconds later. Has anyone found the reason this is happening? I see a lot of similar complaints, but NO answers and Apple support seems to be blind to the issue. I would appreciate any advice I could get on the matter, thank you.

    That's crazy, LeonieDF, but i think you are Right!
    itunes autolaunching was driving me nuts, i removed my headphones from the headphone jack on my macbook pro, and voila! No more problem. What a wierd bug.

  • I have this problem were my iphone just reboots on its own

    I have recently upgraded to io6 and my iphone 4 cdma started rebooting on its own. I took it to a store and they said to take the battery out because it was overheating. So now i lay with a iphone without a battery. Is there any way were i can take it to the apple store so they can fix it?

    Check your mouse configuration, if you have a Mighty Mouse, one configuration is to have the side buttons launch Dashboard (widgets) or click the scroll wheel for example.
