Help me! I lost my iphone

Somebody stole my Iphone two days ago. I went on icloud and on "find my iphone" but the iphone is offline, what should I do? Help me please

The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, all a thief or whoever finds it has to do is force the phone into recovery mode & restore it. While this deletes all data on the phone, it also removes the passcode so the phone can then be used as a phone or touch.

    According to your profile, the phone is an iPhone 4, right? I'd also advise u not to constantly call the phone as you may cause the person who took the phone to be in distress if its not a trustable person, or it has not been handed to the police or any safe place; resulting in your phone getting turned off, drain battery faster etc.
    1. Is it iOS 5?
    2. Have you turned on Find my iPhone in the initial setup process? It's integrated into iOS 5 I believe due to iCloud. Not iOS4
    3. Is data on?
    4. Theif hasn't turned it off
    If these criterias are satisfied, your phone can possibly be tracked with iCloud at http://www.icloud.com
    Click the tiny iCloud icon on the left side of your screen, select find my iPhone.
    DO NOT ALERT THE THIEF BY PLAYING A SOUND IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO DECREASE CHANCES OF RECOVERY - It's a no turning back for whoever he/she is.
    Possibly, get a trusted buddy or anyone close to you to borrow you an iPhone WITH Find my iphone, you probably can track it real time with the google maps on Find my iPhone. You need to login to your apple id.
    Edit: ASAP. Good luck.

    The app isn't necessary, Carolyn, only the appropriate settings.

    Please stop telling people they need the app as well. You're doing people a disservice by doing so and I don't know why you persist.

    Don't know what you mean by "some time ago", but unless you activated Find My Phone and the phone is still on, the answer is no. (Even if you ask 3 times).

  • HELP! I LOST MY IPHONE 4S AT SCHOOL

    I lost my Iphone at school, told the teachers, checked the rooms and everything
    once i got home i logged into icloud and went to iphone tracker, i located the location, im sure a student must have it cause its been travelling alot
    i don't know what to do next ???????
    im totally depressed
    IT WAS A 64GB IPHONE 4S - which in australia costs $999
    can't tell my parents cause i am sure they will hate me - thankyou hope someone can help! HURRRY
    parents are going to kill me when they find out ..... :/

    Not a real sympathetic response NMJH, is it? You know people are only human, so give this guy a break, ok.
    This is what I would do. You can send a message from the iCloud find my iPhone service. Send a message stating that the phone has been lost, but has been tracked to its current location. Ask that it be returned to the school, as "lost property found" and you won't call the police to retrieve your phone. Then you can send another message stating that you will wipe and lock the iPhone, rendering it unusable to anyone but you, and you will call in the police, then they won't have a choice.
    Good luck. My daughter had two phones stolen from school, where they are allowed to have but turned off, in most schools in Australia.

    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:

    <Personal Information Edited by Host>

    There is nothing that Apple can do about this. The only way to locate and/or wipe the phone is via Find My iPhone and you have done that. In this last post you state, "give it away", are you referring to giving the thief the passcode? If so, then your data has been compromised. Until the device is connected to the Internet to execute the wipe command, the data is available for the thief to view. Nothing anyone here can say or do can change that. You need to immediately change the passwords for all accounts that were on the phone to help prevent them from accessing them. Report the theft to law enforcement.

    If you enabled Find my iPhone, you can go to http://icloud.com/find and play a sound on it. Otherwise you'll have to look for it just like you would any other lost item.

  • I lost my iPhone device, how can I get my data back on another one without using an iCloud backup just back up on i Tunes, Please Help.

    I lost my iPhone device, how can I get my data back on another one without using an iCloud backup just back up on i Tunes, Please Help.??

    You can find the backup files and then copy them to a safe place if you are worrying about this.
    iTunes places the backup files in these places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    The "~" represents your Home folder. If you don't see Library in your Home folder, hold Option and click the Go menu.
    Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then press Return.
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, then choose Run. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then click OK.
