How can I use findmyiphone when I have not installed icloud?

I lost my iphone, and when I went to my wife's iphone to find it using findmyiphone, it won't let me find it without an icloud account.  Of course, I can't get an icloud account without my iphone.  Catch-22; I did what I was supposed to do to find the phone if it got lost, it got lost, and I can't find it without the phone.
Is there anything I can do?

Assuming you setup/activated Find My Phone, on your phone, BEFORE it was lost/stolen, and it is turned on & your phone connected to the Internet, you can login to iCloud.com, from any computer & hopefully locate your phone. You can use the Find My Phone app to do the same using an iOS device.

  • How can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?

    how can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?

    Thanks, varjak, it is too easy to fall into use of jargon assuming everyone understands what it means.
    One additional point in all of this, not all "iDevice" apps run on every "iDevice".  Some are customized for a specific device, or class of devices such as the iPod/iPhone with their smaller screen.  Others for just the iPads for their larger screens.  So the user needs to be sure they are getting an app that will work on their specific device.
    And to Phoneboone, you do need to purchase the app again if it is for a different class of equipment.  When you are looking at apps such as iWorks for the Mac and iWorks components for the iPad, the iPad versions are very inexpensive.  Pages is only $10 (US) which is really cheap for such a good word processor that reads and saves in the MS Word format.
    Anyway, search for what you need and just enjoy the convenience of so many options for apps.

    I will address your second question.
    First, make sure your iPhone and iPad have absolutely identical Apple IDs.  If they do, use that Apple ID in Settings > iCloud on your iPhone to select the "Notes" option.  Lo and behold, all your iCloud notes should appear on your iPhone.

  • How can i use the apps i have downloaded on itunes

    how can i use the apps i have downloaded on itunes

    Apps downloaded through iTunes will only run on iOS devices such as iPhones, iPod Touch, and iPads. Plug your device into your computer, open iTunes, and click on it in the bar either at the top or the left side. Then, click apps at the top, and click install next to the app you want installed.
    If you are looking for apps to run on your Mac, you need to download them through the Mac App Store, not through iTunes.

    Please define "I had it unlocked".
    If it was not unlocked by AT&T, then it was hacked. Hacked and jailbroken phones can not be discussed here per the TOS.

  • How can it be secure when I did not have to enter the Sync Key on my synced device

    I have just set up Firefox Sync for v6.0.1 on my new Lenovo Laptop to sync all bookmarks, passwords etc from my old Lenovo Laptop.
    When I set up the account using my old laptop I was given a Sync Key which I stored on my old laptop.
    I then went to my new laptop to enter it as a device. I was given 3 sets of numbers to copy into my old device, which I did. The sync then went ahead successfully, but the new device was never given the Sync Key. So how could it decrypt all the sync'ed information? I can only presume that the sync is not secure, and that it was never encrypted during sync'ing. I not also that my password manager on my new device was not secured with a Master Password, so the passwords must have all been transferred in the clear. This is dreadful if this is really the case

    You should be able to add a device by opening the Firefox Mobile preferences and then scrolling to the Sync section. Press the connect button and you will get a 12 character pass phrase. On your desktop open the options window and then the Sync tab then use the add a device button to enter the 12 character code from your mobile.
    If you are not near your computer you will need the Sync Key that was given to you when setting up Sync.
