Help finding IMEI number and proof of purchase for lost iPhone!
Hi everyone,
I recently lost my iPhone 4 and for the life of me cannot find any record of my IMEI number, which I will need to make an insurance claim. Does anyone know where I might be able to get a hold of this for instance through iTunes on the computer that I backed it up on, or over iCloud?
Also, for the insurance claim, I need to have a proof of purchase. I no longer have the receipt from when I bought it (in an Apple store), however, would it be possible to get something through Apple themselves that would act as a proof of purchase?
Many thanks in advance!
Nick
The SN is on your box, you can also find it by going to iTunes>Preferences(under the edit menu in Windows)>Devices...hoover your mouse pointer over your iPhone backup, & a popup will appear showing your SN & IMEI number.
As for a copy of your purchase receipt, call AppleCare, or login to your support profile online.

How do I get a proof of purchase for my iphone from apple?
I bought an iPhone from O2 but then had to send the phone back to Apple for them to replace. I have now subsequently needed to claim on my insurance with O2 as my phone has been lost but I need a proof of purchase for the original phone.
How do I get this?
SamYou should have received a service statement, either via email or with the replacement iPhone. That's all the "proof of purchase" Apple can provide that I know of. If you did not receive any sort of statement or paperwork showing that the iPhone was replaced, contact Apple technical support and ask if they can send you something.

Help.I lost my iphone 4s in Bangladesh.I have imei number and serial number .how find my iphone 4s?
Unless you have Find My Phone activated, you cannot find it.
What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:
This link, Re: Help! I misplaced / lost my iPhone 5 today morning in delta Chelsea hotel downtown an I am not able to track it. Please help!, has some good advice regarding your options when your iDevice is lost or stolen.

2. Find my lost iPod Touch
3. AT&T. Sprint, and Verizon can block stolen phones/tablets

5. iCloud- Use Lost Mode
6. What to do if your iOS device is lost or stolen

Please can someone help me. A couple of years ago I bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 and had it installed on my computer. I've now bought a new computer and would like to re-install the program on my new computer. It starts going through the setup but then asks for the product serial number ? I don't know this as although I have the original box and books I don't have the cd sleeve and there's nothing on the cd itself. How can I get around this ? There is a PN nu,mber on the base of the box but I've tried this and it won't accept. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can't call the 800 number as it won't accept from outside the US and I'm in England.
Janieron if you registered your product then you can complete the following steps to locate your serial number:
Sign in to your Adobe account with your Adobe ID (your email address) and password.
Click My Adobe, and then click My Products.
If you did not register your product do you still have the proof of purchase for Photoshop Element 7? This is the only way we will be able to generate a new serial number for you. -
hi my name is james bowd and i was wondering how to find my imei number/code as i need prof that the iphone is mine
please reply on [email protected] thank youYou should not post your email address in these forums - they're public and it will likely lead to spam.
On your iPhone, go to Settings, General, About, and scroll down. You'll find IMEI number there.

My iphone 4 is lost.I have find my iphone app but I do not have data plan on it.Hence I can not locate it.
I have its serial number. How do I get IMEI number?
(I synced to i tune but did not find IMEI number)The following is if you have made a backup to iTunes:
If you can access your computer, but not your device:
Open iTunes.
Open Preferences. (In Mac OS X, choose iTunes > Preferences. In Windows, choose Edit > Preferences.)
Click the Devices tab.
Position the mouse over a backup to display the serial number of the backed-up device. iPhone and cellular iPad models also display the IMEI/MEID and Cellular Data Number:
The above is from iOS: How to find the serial number, IMEI, MEID, CDN, and ICCID number and there may be some other information there. -
i have only imei number and to search warrnty thay need seril number, so need to know how to search seril number without phonne
This is a peer-to-peer community.
All people responding are user just like you.
However, many of are users have solved many problems for other blackberry users in need of assistance.
If you see you haven't been responded to in a long time, just reply 'bump' on the same thread you originally posted.
The term 'bump' is used because a thread remaining unanswered usually moes down the list and gets lost in older pages. By replying to a post, it gets moved ("bumped") back to the top of the first page of that category.
If you see a solution to your problem, feel free to mark it as a solution. Also you can thank the user who helped you or give him a 'kudo'. A 'kudo' is the little star found underneath the avatar (picture) of the user. It's like giving them credit for the work they did.
Welcome to the community! We hope to see you posting soon.
Sincerely,

I bought my iPhone online but I don't have its IMEI number and I lost it today, can I know its IMEI if I have the order number of the shipment ?
You could always READ the article from which the question was posted as it explictily details how to find the IMEI and several other identifying numbers. Including ways to find them in iTunes without the phone.

How to purchase apps in App Store? When I am trying to buy those apps, it is asking for my card details. I have entered my debit card number and then it asked for 3 digit security code. I have entered cvv secure code but it is showing an invalid security
Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
You can try contacting the iTunes Store and asking if there is any way to use your card, but they probably will tell you that it's not possible.
http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards.

I have lost IMEI number and WIFI while downgrading on Iphone 3GS 8GB.Would I get back IMEI while resotring?
Since you attempted to downgrade the phone, you have no warranty and your ability to get support here or from Apple has been forfeited.
You're on your own. A Missing IMEI is generally unfixable. Buy a new phone.
