How can I locate my lost iphone5s?

If you had "Find My iPhone" enabled in Settings > iCloud then you may be able to locate it. If not, you cannot locate it.
If it was enabled then you can try locating it via http://icloud.com on a computer or the App "Find My iPhone" on another iDevice. Note: this will only work if your device is connected to a network and the device hasn't already been restored as new and/or "Find My iPhone" has not been disabled on it. Note: Disabling "Find My iPhone" is much more difficult in iOS 7.
If you think that your device was stolen rather than lost then you should report it to the police. In either case you should contact your carrier, change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

    If you activated Find My iPhone, then log into www.icloud.com and you can try to track your device. If you did not activate Find My iPhone, you cannot track it. Also, if the device has been turned off, not connected to wifi, it cannot be traced either, and will show up offline in iCloud.

    how can i locate my lost iphone?

    The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone 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 you activated the Find My iPhone service (in Settings>icloud), and if the device's batteries still have a charge, the device is not turned off and has not been reset and is connected to wifi, then you can try to track it.  Using a computer's browser, log into icloud.com and look at the Find My iPhone page.  On a device, invoke the Find My iPhone app (get it for free at the itunes app store) and log into the icloud account.  Note:  The Find My iPhone **app** does not turn on the service, you can only do that through Settings>icloud.
    If the device is listed as "offline", then one of the requirements listed above is not met (like being connected to wifi, or if the device was stolen and the thief reset it).

    How can I locate my lost iPhone 4s? I have my serial number. But I don't know how. please help me.

    The serial number will not help you locate it.
    IF you turned on the find my iPhone feature on the iPhone itself, then go to iCloud.com
    If you did not, then you cannot locate it.

  • HOw can i locate a lost iphone without the "find my iphone" app

    MY daughter has lost her ipod 4g.  I previously was able to locate her via the find my iphone app, however, her ipod no longer shows up on my device list since its been gone.  Any suggestions?  Or should i just consider it gone forever?

    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with your bank or any savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  Something as small as an iPod should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • How can I locate my lost iPod Touch if my location was off and user ID was changed?

    I lost 3 Apple devices during house break in. How can I locate my lost Apple devices if my location was turn off,
    without "Find My Phone" apps and user ID was changed. The 3 devices are iPod Touch, iPad 2 and iPhone 3gs.
    I had made a Police Report and was told that I can request to get information to track my devices upon WIFI or
    internet connection. I hope "APPLE" team will help me to track my devices with IP locations, GPS, built in compass,
    or quickly send directions, updated informations and mobile data to find out and coordinates them.
    Given point will also help the police to capture them.
    Awaiting your reply.
    Thank you. Rgd,

    There is no Apple here, just users like you and me. Apple does not provide nor have that information, as far as I know, but if police needs that information, they have a legal way of contacting Apple. If I were you I would avoid trusting Internet forum, assessable by anyone with your personal information.

  • HT1976 How can I find my lost iPhone 4

    How can I find my lost iPhone 4

    One way is through the Find My Phone application but provided that:-
    1) the iPhone is connected to the internet (be it by way of Wifi OR data); and
    2) you have previously activated the feature.
    Then again, even if the above conditions are true, you will most probably only get the rough location of the phone and not the "exact" location of it.For instance, if the iPhone is in a high rise building with 60 floors, you will only know it is in the building but never which floor it is.
    Unless you are carrying your laptop all around, activating the Siren would assist you in finding your iPhone.
    Good luck (Taken style)

  • How can i locate my lost ipod?

    how can i locate my lost ipod?

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order

    How can I track my lost iPhone device?

    What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer 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:
