Find my iphone wont reinstall after downgrade

After having many problems, after iOS8 upgrade, I reintalled iOS 7.1.2 via ipsw patch.
Great news, install worked, back ups worked, speed and reliability have been restored.
Bad news, now I cannot install or use Find My iPhone.
Has anyone who has downgraded from 8 back to 7 had the same problem? Have you been able to fix and recover the app?

The updated Find My iPhone app is designed for iOS8. Besides, the app is not required to activate Find My iPhone, it is to track other iOS devices.

  • HT4623 what do u do if your iphone wont activate after u update it

    what do u do if your iphone wont activate after u update it

    You contact the carrier it's locked to and see if they will unlock it for you.  Activation problems are almost always due to the fact that the phone was hacked to unlock it instead of being legitimately unlocked.
    Of course, this can also happen if you're trying to activate it without a SIM in it. You can not activate the phone without a SIM.

  • ITunes has a problem finding my iPhone on wifi after iOS 6 update

    Since updating to iOS 6 on Thursday, I've been having problems with iTunes not finding my iPhone on wifi. I'm not having this problem with my iPad, which is first gen so no iOS update. Sometimes the phone will show up on the list when I start iTunes, most of the time it won't. I am also getting repeated pop-ups from Windows telling me that "ATH.exe has stopped working". The pop up shows up even after I click the button for "Close Program". I've tried stopping and starting the Apple Mobile Device Service. This led to the phone showing up on the list but the pop up frequency has actually now increased (not that that's necessarily related).
    I do not have problems with the phone showing up in the list or syncing the phone when it's physically connected - it works exactly the way it's supposed to if it's plugged in. And I can deal with having to plug it in to sync if I have to but these constant popups are starting to drive me batty and I don't want to have to deal with them until the new iTunes comes out next month (assuming the new version will fix whatever the problem is anyway).
    I am running Windows Vista 32-bit, iTunes 10.7.0.21, iPhone 3GS.

    I've got the 4S and I see you have the 3GS;  this isn't a device issue evidently since your post is the first that I see is NOT a newer device.  I'm in total agreement on your post as well - there is absolutely no rhyme nor reason for all this and the pop-up is to the point of syncing via the cable is worth NOT having this "ATH.exe" error.
    Further I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything, as per all the support forums, yet to sync via WiFi, I have to stop and start the Apple Device Service countless times.  As I stated earlier, by the time I start/restart the services, it's just easier to throw it on the cable and call it a day....
    One would think, by now, that Apple would be on this however I hve yet to see an Apple post as to a resolution.  I suppose we will just go batty together!!!  If I hear or find anything, I'll hunt down this post and post the info I've found.  Thank you for reporting this so Apple realizes we're not losing our minds nor is it a Vista/Windows issue. iTunes10.7.0.21 is being used & this only started after the iOS 6 update... GRRR!!!!

  • Find my iphone stopped working after a trip to asia

    My daughter took her Verizon iPhone 4 to asia for a month.  When she came back iCloud could not find her phone anymore. Location Services are on and iCloud is on.  The phone can display its own location. Running iOS 5.x.

    Fixed: went to Settings/iCloud, used Delete Account, turned phone off and on, Settings/iCloud, re-entered account info. Phone now found by Find My iPhone.
    Additional details: when it wasn't working it always said "Offline".
    Phone is currently running 5.1.1.

  • Iphone wont start after screen, lcd change.

    Ok so i had dropped my iphone and broke my digitizer and main lcd display. no problem my iphone still worked. So i changed my lcd and digitizer and now my iphone wont turn on. Nothing "nada" I already did that home button power button reset and no apple logo nothing. Plugged into charger and nothing no battery meter no sign of life. I have done this before with no problem but i dont know what i did wrong. Also not even itunes will pick it up.. someone please help me

    I completed the DFU mode and on my computer it would not work I think because of my security settings and I did not want to disable my antivirus so I used my moms computer who hasnt updated her antivirus and it worked using her laptop....when I did it on my computer I got Unknown Error 21 which when I researched it could have been the security on my computer so I would suggest this as well but also if you get an error its probably because of your security settings on  your antivirus....good luck and thanks gdgmacguy

  • Iphone wont charge after iso7.0.3 update

    I updated my iphone 4s to the current ISO 7.0.3 yesterday morning after my phone had been charging overnight.I had a full battery after the update but when i came to put on charge again last night it wouldnt charge. I have tried 3 different charging stations but nothing is charging it. Can anyone help?

    I have the same problem.  I have an iPhone 4 and after upgrading to iOS 7.03 (my first upgrade to iOS 7), my phone volume is almost inaudible.  I have the same problem with the headphones for phone calls.  Listening to music on my headphones works fine.  I have also done a restore and set up as new phone and it doesn't fix the problem though it wasted 4 hours.

  • TS3694 Iphone wont start after it turned off

    I had an iphone 4 that i got 9 months ago. About a month ago the vibration stoppedworking... ok... i went to telia and got a new one changed, as soon as i got home... that one wouldnt work, it even broke my computer (how? first the usb ports wouldnt be working, so no mouse or keyboard) and then my windows wouldnt start.... no phone, no computer 2-3 days.... i managed to fix my computer, and get another phone new (this is relevant because i got a new os installed in my computer, clean install) lately my iphone would get stucked while usingsome apps and id had to switch them off and then hit them again to use them... Today while i was writting an sms... after i sent it... my phone switched off. Weird i though.... well lets keep going, i turned it on... and it wont turn on! it stays at the apple logo and then it restarts. (*** happened here). I went quiclky to itunes to fix it, to restore my iphone.... and BAM i got an error and it wont restore/update the iphone.
    I have tried doing a hard reset, it wont turn on.
    I cant put it in dfu mode since it starts "too quickly" or at least it feels like it starts directly into "connect to itunes" mode.so.... yea...

    Well first off my sleep button/power button does not work.  This is not new and I have been able to use my I phone 4 perfectly fine without it.  Yesterday it stopped working went to a totally black screen.  I have tried the Home button and signing into I tunes, but I tunes does not even recognize that I have aphone plugged in.  I am at a loss of what to do, I cannot force a restore because nothing is recognizing that the phone is plugged into the computer.  Interestingly when the phone went to black last night you could call it, never here anything and it would ring and never go to voicemail.  It was plugged in all night and now it goes to voicemail

  • TS2811 my iphone wont activate after restoring it

    i bought an iphone 3g off a friend of mine and i signed up for itunes and i restored the phone but now it wont activate itself. What should i do?

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
    original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
    carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
    if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?
    Unauthorized modification of iOS

But my iphone still had a black screen w/ the apple logo and a bar showing it is loading but it won't load. it only shows the very beginning of the bar progress loaded. I tried to restore and it does same thing. it stops loading after the very beginning. I tried to reset the phone by holding the home and top button at the same time but i still get same result. So my phone is sitting here useless w/ a black screen w/the apple logo on it and a progress bar. Any suggestions Please

    Try to put your phone into recovery mode. See this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • HT1212 iphone wont unlock after i type my password in

    My IPhone won't unlock after I put my password in, and I haven't changed my password at all. Can you help?

    If you never connect the phone to your computer you are not using it the way it was intended, and eventually you will have a problem that will render the phone useless and you will not be able to do anything to fix it (as you just discovered).
    Best Buy can't fix it either, because the phone was never synced to their computer.
    You will have to restore the phone using Recovery Mode, and you will lose all content on it.
