HELP PLEASE! Is there a way to turn on my Find My Phone setting for my lost phone so that i can track its location?

Last night i lost my iphone 5C.  I have talked to AT&T multiple times today, and it seems that i cannot use the " find my phone " app from another device to locate mine because i did not have that setting enabled before i lost it.  Is there anyway to use my icloud account to turn that setting to ON so that i can track my device?

You can only turn that on while it is in your possession by going to settings > iCloud and turn Find My ON

  • We just bought our daughter a 4th gen ipod touch. Is there an app that we can download onto it so we can track its location?

    Is there an app for a 4th gen ipod touch that can be down loaded so we can track its physical location, as she is famous for losing things around the house?

    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn on FindMyiPod. It is off by default
    To find and to have the iPod play a sound which is very useful for finding in home. Location is not that accurate to to find in a home.

  • Is there a way to turn on the mobile hot spot function for a day from the phone?

    I have an unlimited data plan.  It costs $30 a month to add the mobile hot spot feature which I only need a day or two a month.  I know that it can be turned on and off via Custom Service and that I would only pay for the time it was on at roughly $1.00/day.  Unfortunately, going through custom service is time consuming.  Ideally I would like an app that lets me turn the mobile hot spot feature on and off from the phone.
    There are two components to a mobile hot spot.  First you need to active the feature through customer service at which point billing starts and then you need to enable it on the phone.  The problem is activating and deactiving the feature.
    Is there an app to do this?

    FWIW, I'd love to turn off passcodes *permanently* on my five iOS devices running iOS 8.1.
    Is this possible anymore?
    So far, iOS 8.1 insists (after awhile) that I *must* re-implement a passcode.
    (FWIW, with iOS 7 I could turn off passcodes permanently, sending iPads to sales prospects secure in the knowledge they could easily operate the iPad over the course of several weeks, reviewing media devoted to their projects, and not finding themselves locked out.)
    Advice much appreciated.

  • Help please is there any way to have 2 iphone 4's which are updated on the same account and not have the same stuff on each phone i.e. contactsm, apps, and calendars? we like the fact if one purchased an app and other wants to get same app its free!!!!

    we updated both of our iphone 4 on the same computer and we have always shared the same itunes account which is convenient when one purchases an app the other person can simply download app without purchasing again!!! but we do not want all same contacts and app on both phones!!! after updating and setting up icloud we both had same contacts so i went in contacts on my phone and began deleting his numerous contacts on my phone well not knowing that it was deleting on his phone also!!! oops he tried restoring from backup with no luck retrieving his contacts !!! also another issue i have noticed is the manual says that in order for it to sync ur phone must b plugged into a power source well and i have noticed it saying syncing w my phone when it was not plugged anything wall nor computer and it looks as tho in the summary at the bottom where it displays capacity and free space that it is gonna take everything off of my phone but nothing changes on my phone!?! do we just need to get him a separate itunes account to be able to get full benefits from update?!                                                                                                                                                                                                          

    Here's how to do it.
    1. App Store, iTunes Store should have the same AppleID on Computer and iPhones. (Free to share apps, music and books... )
    2. Person A uses the same purchasing account for everything (ie. email, contacts and ...).
    3. Person B have the same purchase account see no. 1 (for App Store and iTunes Store) but create a second AppleID for iCal, e-mail, contacts  and etc.

  • Is there a way to automatically change tabs with different times set for each tab?

    I found a few add-ons that will automatically change tabs based on a configurable time. But all the tabs use the same time setting. What I need is the ability to have tabs displayed for different amounts of time. Ex, Tab 1 for 30 seconds, Tab 2 for 10 seconds, Tab 3 and 4 for 5 seconds. Ideally, I will have the ability to modify these settings as the amount of tabs and the content will change a couple times a week.
    Currently I'm using Tab Slideshow with each tab displayed for 15 seconds. But it sounds like Tab Rotate and Auto Toggle Tabs essentially do the same. If there is already a solution that would be great but if not is there someone available for hire to help modify one of the existing add-ons? Thank you in advance for your time.

    Currently Firefox don't have any options like that.

  • Please help! Is There a way to separate a song by itself from the beat?

    Please help! Is There a way to separate a song by itself from the beat? If I have 1 already mixed track. Is it possible to do in GarageBand or or in Logic Express.
    If yes, then how?
    Thx al lot.

    There are a few things you could try like phase inversion or possibly some EQ stuff, but at best you're going to get the instruments a little softer.
    It's virtually impossible in most cases to eliminate specific elements of a full mix.

  • Is there any way to turn missing photos back into printable jpegs?

    Using LR 5.  Lost about 1500 jPeg images due to corrupted disk drive.  However, LR5 still displays a remarkably sharp image under "missing photos".  Is there any way to turn these back into printable jpegs?  These are family vacation photos that had not yet been backed up to additional drives.  

    You want to extract LR previews as images.  Googling for this shows several links:

    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Using those instructions you may also be able to select PayPal if that is allowed in your country.

    Hi nikevans04,
    I am sorry to hear that you lost your iPad Air 2. You will only see the last location if it has been off for less than 24 hours. Anything longer than that, it will not show up using the Find My feature. Take a look at the article below for more information.

  • Is there any way to turn the phone back to firmware 4.2 or can anyone help with my problem of no sound

    Ever since I downloaded update 4.3, I don't have any external sound from the speakers.  The phone rings fine and some sounds like the clock alarm works,
    However I don't have any sound from any game app or apps like Pandora, I-Heart Radio etc.  All apps work fine, when an external headset is plugged in.
    I keep getting a message that says "THIS ACCESSORY IS NOT OPTIMIZED FOR THIS IPHONE.   YOU MAY EXPERIENCE NOISE CAUSED BY CELLULAR INTERFERANCE AND A DECREASED IN CELLULAR SIGNAL STRENGTH.
    I took the phone to the local Apple store and they said that it was the external phone jack.  However when I took the phone in for repair, the technican said that it was a software problem.
    I tried restoring my phone and it did not help.  The repair tech said that I need to restore the software to a PRE 4.3 to verify that this will fix the problem.
    The sound works fine when I plug in an external headset.  The sound bars show up on the front screen.  However when I remove the headphone, The sound bars no longer show up on the screen.

    I have a similar issue. Sound works okay but keep getting the app not optimized, you may experience a decrease in celluar strength. Verizon says it is a software issue. Apple says it is a hardware. Phone will niot synch to itunes to do any kind of reset.

  • Is there a way to turn the wireless capabilities off on an AirPort Express?  I have an AirPort Extreme as my main router and use the express to just extend it. I only really want to you use the express for hard ethernet connections

    Is there a way to turn the wireless capabilities off on an AirPort Express?  I have an AirPort Extreme as my main router and use the express to just extend it. I only really want to you use the express for hard ethernet connections. For whatever reason when I have my express extend my wifi at home the download speed from just the express is absolutely terrible, drops to about 1.5 mb compared to when it's on the extremes part of the network the speed goes up to 50-75mb. These terrible download speed really only affects the iPhones as my MacBook Pro usually gets the good speed no matter where it is. I don't believe there is anything wrong with my phone because if I am in the part of the house that uses just the extreme the download speeds on the iphone goes up to 50-75mb. As a note I have an AirPort Extreme on the top floor of my house (second floor) that's where my modem is located. On the first floor that's where one airport express is located. I also have another airport express in the basement that is accessed by my landlord. Any thoughts on how to fix this would be helpful.

    It appears that your networking goals with the AirPort Express is to use it as a wireless Ethernet bridge instead of using it to extend the wireless range of your AirPort Extreme. The latter requires that the Express Wi-Fi radios be enabled.
    If you intended to use the Express as a wireless bridge, you just need to reconfigure it to "Join a wireless" network instead of "Extend a wireless network."

    In an extended network, the placement of the extending base station is critical as it can only extend the wireless network at the bandwidth at which it receives it.
    Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details on optimal base station placement.

    Hi tdennehy
    Well, first of all thanks a lot for your replay. We have perfect LOS with certainly more than 60% of the Fresnel zone being clear. The Yagi antennas are pointed at each other with no doubt, we actually got while in the "install root" and "install non-root" bridge mode the I and R LEDs on and stable, and S blinking. At times we got all the LEDs blinked fast but I guess we were passing through some strong signal concentrations. Heh, the client sugested to install the Yagi antennas as the omni but I just ingnored him, what else could I say hehe.
    When we were installing all the equipment I had a play with different channels and it seemd like CH 1 worked best. The antennas use the cable they come with because the BR-1310 bridges we have installed right beneath the antennas, only the coaxials cables go down to the office to the power injectors.
    Please see the attached screenshot from the signal and SNR reading. It seems like we have a little bit of noise. The signal was -61dB to -63dB on the installation day but 2 weeks later it went down to about -65dB.
    So, you suggest we rotate both Yagi antennas by 90 degrees correct? I guess one needs to be turned clockwise and another anticlockwise correct? What de we actually gain by doing that? We change the polarization from vertical to horizontal? Could you please explain it to me a little bit more?
    Thanks in advance for sharing your experience. I am going to troubleshoot this on Monday so I would be great if you could give me some sugesstions. I thought of changing the Yagi antennas to 19dB direccional flat pannel of 3rd party but with this distance 13,5dB yagi I think are sufficient. Does the "distance" settings on root bridge have impact on the signal sterngth?
    One more question, at the moment the 2 connected offices are in the same subnet so to speak in the same broadcast domain. On one site (non-root bridge)  they have up to 150 client connections to the servers on the other site (root bridge) but with 20kbps per station making it roughly 3Mbps total bandwidth needed. When they connect all at the same time, our client say the wireless link go. I really don't believe that becasue on the wireless readings we get betwenn 18 and 24Mbps so it should be way more than enough. Do you think by putting both sites in different VLANs would help a little bit so the local traffic would not need to be broadcasted over the wireless link back and forward? Can you shed on that a little bit of your experience? I suspect they have something to do with the switching on local site because when I was pinging the non-root bridge from the local site but connected to a different switch then is connected the Cisco bridge, I got funny reposnses, between 5 and 40ms over ethernet with 10 connections to the remote site over the wireless link but when we pingged the same CIsco bridge from the local site but connecte to the same switch as the Cisco bridge the responses were 1ms. It makes me think that they have some broadcast storming on the local site and that also propagates the wireless link...

  • Is there any way to turn off the volume rocker of the side of the iPad?

    Is there any way to turn off the volume rocker of the side of the iPad?
    Please help!!!!!! I forever have the square with the volume control on my screen because my volume rocker does not work.

    You could try a reboot:  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad should restart.  If that doesn't get rid of the volume control box on your screen, it's time to make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your Apple Store, and they can send your iPad off for service.

  • Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages?  I just want to type a letter and add pictures and titles, and Pages keeps changing font sizes and doesn't let me "Do it my way".  I HATE this!

    Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages?  I'm using a blank document, so I figured I could write my letter and add pictures any way I wanted to.  But NO!  Pages keeps changing the font size!  I typed a large heading as a title, and when I try to change to a smaller font for the body of the letter, it changes the size back to the larger size!  I am getting SO FRUSTRATED!  I've spent over an hour trying to get the stupid program to let me just type my letter!  Can anyone help?

    The only one left is the "unsubmitted text" dialogue, which would not be a problem if I were not a Facebook user; after updating the "Richard is..." field (which does not require a manual submit to actually send) I get the above message. This is obviously Safari just not realising that the info has been sent and is therefore (I imagine) one for Apple themselves to answer!!
    You're welcome Rich. Glad to help.
    Not being a Facebook User, I'm not sure how to respond to the error situation. However, this would be something to report to Apple as a bug via the Safari Menu. First, open to the page in question, then select "Report Bugs to Apple".
    Mahalo for the and Aloha from Big Island.
