Find my iPhone won't work with OS 4.3.1

Just now found out both my iphone and my wife's (which was stolen last night) can't be located using Mobile Me (and the app "find iphone"). It worked great when I set it up - that was while the phones used OS 4.2 - I upgraded to the 4.3 the last time I synced to my iTunes account... Never thought of checking to see if the MobileMe account was enabled (why should I have to...) The account must have been deleted when I upgraded. I didnt realize tht until last night when I tried to use the locate feature, it found both of my kid's iPod touch's, but did not locate either iPhone. Now I re-install, it shows as "ON" but yet neither phone can be located...
Very Frustrating especially that her phone was stolen - I thought great Ill just find out where it is, report it...
Anyone else out there experience this too???

Try again - go to the Apple store to do the download, opt to save rather than install. Not sure what computer you have, on a PC go to the downloads folder and click on the iTunes exe file and then install it.
If that does not work then you will need to uninstall all Apple components and reinstall. If you do have to do this, follow the instructions in this support document to the letter as the order of deletion is important.

Find my iPhone won't work with locked iPhone or iPad screen?

Okay,
I was showing a friend how cool "find my iphone" is and used the "Play Sound or Send Message" button to show her how it could find my iPad. A few seconds later the iPad starts beeping in my backpack. I open it up expecting to see a message "Oops, left my iPad at coffee shop, please call me at ______", but instead saw "Enter Passcode" box, which appears to cover the message I sent.
If I "cancel" the "enter passcode" box, I can see the message, but what with all the loud radar sounds I don't know that someone picking it up for the first time would think to do that. Is this the way it is supposed to work? What is the point in being able to send a message to a stranger who won't be able to read it because s/he doesn't know my passcode, and probably won't think to "cancel" the passcode box so s/he can see the hidden message behind it?

I have checked all of these settings and they are turned on. I think it must have something to do with iCloud...maybe there is a conflict in the account settings?

Irish iPhone won't work with German simcard

Irish iPhone won't work with German simcard! Can anyone help!? I bought it prepaid in Ireland with u2 but my German u2 card won't work in it?! Thanks for any advice!

Yes, but they are different firms and O2 Ireland sell locked phones as far as I know so the german sim is not meant to work.
From Apples site O2 Eire can unlock but not sure how well that would work if you are back in Germany now, as it usually needs to be active in the carriers country on their network.

Find My iPhone won't work from safari

Hello,
I'm trying to use "Find My iPhone" from safari 5.0 an MacOS X 10.6.3, but It doesn't work.
The iPhone localization works fine, but if I try to use the "Display a Message" button, when I push the send button I get an alert window saying: "Your Find My iPhone session has expired. For security reasons, you have been automatically logged out of Find My iPhone. Your last action was not completed. Log in and try again. MobileMe requires you to log in to Find My iPhone every 15 minutes." and then I'm asked endlessly to login.
I have emptied the cache and reset safari, but with no success for Find My iPhone.
All works fine, instead, if I use Firefox.
Moreover, If I switch user (to root) then "Find my Iphone" works fine from safari. But the installed plugins are the same for the two users. There are no plugins in "~/Library/Internet Plugins".
What's the matter?

HI,
Find My iPhone" in the ~/Library/Internet Plugins folder.
MobileMe / Find My iPhone *is not a plugin.*

Iphone won't work with airport express

ok, so i've set up a wireless network on my airport express using my imac which has no trouble connecting to the network, however my iphone won't even detect that a network exists. my iphone has no trouble connecting to two unlocked neighborhood networks as does my imac. I set up my own network to be unlocked and have no security but still no dice, my phone still does not detect it. what am I missing?

Hello zacmobile. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Is your AirPort Express Base Station (AX) the older 802.11g or newer 802.11n? If the 802.11n version, which radio mode do you have it configured for? The default for the newer AX is "802.11n (b/g compatible)". The the iPhone should work with this mode, but you have the option to change the AX to operate in one of the non-"n" modes, like "802.11g only."

My iPhone won't work with wifi

Why won't my iphone work when wifi is on even though I am sure it is the correct wifi and I know the password etc?
The phone works with my carrier when I turn wifi off.
I went through the toubleshooting and checked SMTP stuff my phone is up to date and I tried turning it off and on again.

If this is just happening on your home wifi, you might want to try unplugging your router for 15 seconds, then pluggint it back in. Then on your devices, go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Network Settings. Note: this will erase passwords for previously joined networks so you'll have to rejoin your wifi again.

Find my iphone won't work on my iphone 4s

The app downloads fine, but when I try to sign in with my valid Apple ID and password, it gives me the following message: "The Apple ID or password you entered is incorrect."
Help?

The above page will give you all the information you require to set up find my iphone!
Make sure you enable location services with in settings, as well as the find my iphone option is turned on in the iphone by going to settings> iCloud> find my iPhone and flip it to on. It may take a few moments to kick in, but eventually that should work!
You also want to make sure your Apple ID is verified! Basically, if it is the Apple ID account you used for iCloud, you want to make sure you went to the verification Email, and followed the instructions. If your Apple ID is not verified, it will give you some hassle in the future! If you are not sure if it is verified, you can go to :
appleid.apple.com
Than go to the "Find out" section, type in your info, and it will send you the verification email!

IPhone won't work with Airport Extreme

I got my iPhone when they were released, but I still can't get it to connect to my home's Airport Extreme Wi-Fi network. My software is updated weekly, so I don't think that can be the problem. When I switch the iPhone settings to Wi-Fi, my home network appears, and the Edge icon is replaced with the Airport icon, but when I try to use the connection, it fails and I get this error message: "Safari can't open the page because it can't find the server." Can anyone help me with this?

Funny you should mention it... Although I have been using my iPhone for months with various WiFi networks (including my home Airport Extreme network) I did happen to get a little dialogue box this morning with precisely the same error message. I proceeded to reset my iPhone and it happily went back to working just fine, as before.
Reset by holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears in the center of the screen.
If this is waaay obvious, and you already tried it, then never mind... It was worth a try...

New iPhone won't work with Honda Fit

My old iPhone 4 crashed and I just got a new one to replace it (same exact kind). My old one, all I had to do to play music in my car (2009 Honda Fit) was open my RadioPup app and plug it into the USB port. With the new one I plug it in and get the message "This accessory is not supported by iPhone." I'm not sure why this is happening, is it the new phone or the software update that just happened? Any ideas?

Iphone won't work with sim card inside

I bought a iphone 3Gs and the last owner updated the IOS to 5.1.1.
It works perfect without the sim card, but as soon as i put a sim card in the iphone it does the following things:
(Even when the battery is 100%)
- the apple symbol appears and the iphone shuts down again.
- the apple symbol appears, i can enter the code and the iphone shuts down again.
- the apple symbol appears, i can enter the code, i get a screen and the iphone shuts down again.
- the apple symbol appears, i can enter the code, i get a screen and when i want to make a picture or a phone call the iphone shuts down again.
- the apple symbol appears, i can enter the code, i get a screen and some time later the iphone shuts down again.
What can be the problem?

I did tried a different sim. The problem was the same.
But i think i found the solution. I did recovery (reinstall) of the IOS and after that i was asked to put in the sim. Untill now it seems to work.

My Unlocked Canadian Iphone Won't Work with UK Sim

Hi Everyone. I've researched this here as much as possible and can't for the answer.
I bought an unlocked iphone directly from Apple Canada. Model md257c
I just arrived here in the UK. Went to vodafone. And when we tried to activate the sim card we got the error that it could not be done. Anybody else ever had this happen to them? What is the solution?

Yeah I do. I bought it online so I have all the receipts. I'll be bringing it in tomorrow. I researched everywhere online to make sure they didn't send me a locked one and all indications are that model md257c is a canada unlocked phone.
Thanks for the replies btw

FM transmitter won't work with my iPhone

I bought a Premier FM transmitter from Auto Zone the other day. It has a 30-pin connector with an led panel that lights up when you connect it to an apple device. It's suppose to work with all 30-pin devices but doesn't work with my iPhone 4 (iOS 7.1.2). I have tried it with my iPod Touch 2g and two other iPhone 4's that belonged to my friends, and it worked with all three devices. Any explanation why it won't work with mine?

"the Middle East" is a really big place. I suspect you bought a gray market hacked phone. Call Apple Care and give them the serial number. Maybe they can tell you if it's locked and to what carrier.
