How do I use "Find my iPnone" for 2 phones?

My 12 year old has an iphone as do I. How do I use "Find my iPnone" for both phones? He cannot have an itunes account due to his age. My ipad will show the location of my phone but not his. He must use my iTunes account because he is too young for his own. Any suggestions?
Thanks everyone.

Go into Preferences and set up your MobileMe account on his phone and enable find my iphone. You do not have to enable mail, calendar or contacts (if you have a paid account. If you are using the free service only find my iPhone is available). Then set a restriction password and disable the ability to modify account settings so he can't shut it off.

  • We have two iphones and only one ipad.  We want to be able to use "find my iphone" for both phones, which have separate apple ids.  How do we get our ipad to accept this?

    We have two iphones and only one ipad - no mac.  We want to be able to use "find my iphone" for both phones.  How do we get the ipad to accept two iphone accounts?  icloud is enabled on all three devices. 

    Also, be aware of the following:
    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.  Something as small as an iPod/iPhone 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 to turn off "Find my iPhone" for broken phone before passing it to repair services?

    My wife's iPhone 5 is broken (water damage) and would not even switch on.  We have an insurance, so it is going to be repaired.  However, the repair agency advised us that we have to turn off the "Find my iPhone" function for this phone before we pass it to them for repair.
    The problem is that the phone does not turn on at all, so there is no way to turn the feature off directly from the phone.  It was possible to remove it from iCloud, but from what I understand it still does not switch "Find my iPhone" off.
    Repair agency told us that we have to delete the Apple ID profile completely in order to make the phone repair-able.  Is that correct?  Is there no other way?  I am afraid that if we delete the Apple ID profile, then all the purchased apps will not be accessible any more.  Also this ID is in use by other devices (Mac Mini, iPad) so that's not exactly the ideal situation.
    Please advise.
    Thank you.

    I do suspect that they will not be really repairing.  However, I was told what I was told, and I just would not like to end up in situation when an iPhone gets comletely locked if they manage to fix it somehow but then it would lock-out because I did not remove it from "Find my iPhone".
    I could remove the phone from the account already (as the page you refer to suggests).  Will that be sufficient?  Erasing it is not possible because it is switched off.

  • I have Apple ID for using iTunes, but haven't signed in. Now my Ipad stolen, how can I use Find My Phone for finding my Ipad?

    Who can help me, to add my Ipad to Deviecs in Find My Phone. I was usually using my Ipad sign in iTunes for download music, but haven't signed in iCloud yet. Now my I Ipad stolen, how can I use Find My Phone?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
    If the device is wiped by you or another, you may not be able to locate the device (although some have reported they can)

  • How do you use "find my phone"?  I can't find it and I'm not sure I installed that app.

    How do you use "find my phone"?  I can't find it and I'm not sure I installed that app.

    The app is not necessary; that only for tracking from another iOS device. If you set up Find My iPhone, you can track the iPhone from the iCloud web site:
    icloud.com/find
    If you didn't configure Find My iPhone on the device before you lost it, then you're out of luck.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
    For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

    You said "have since setup an id with correct email, but cannot verify the first account.  I cannot delete it either. ".
    Why can't you verify it?
    Do you not receive the verification email address?

  • How can I use my itunes library for iphoto slideshow?

    how can I use my itunes library for iphoto slideshow?

    Here's a possible workaround:
    Create the slideshow in Iphoto and add a theme and music.
    Install Picasa  and it will include the slideshow on it's indexed list.
    Upload the slideshow to PicasaWebAlbums and send the link to anyone you wish.
    The music and theme is preserved.
    Caveat: My playback pictures appear darker than usual but that could be just lousy photography...:)

  • HT1660 how can I use one single library for all users on the same laptop?

    how can I use one single library for all users on the same laptop?

    You are most of the way there. Each user having access to hard drive is the key. If users are limited in file privileges this is harder.
    Any files you add to your library and any files she adds to her library are available to the other. Just not automatically. Each user must add the files to their own library using the add file or add folder option from menu bar.
    What I have done is set library location to a location outside of My Documents\My Music. On my network storage I have a folder names s:\itunes. Both accounts iTunes are set to use this location for the library.

  • How do I use my iphone 4s for gps - do I need an app?

    I'm a new smartphone user. How do I use my iphone 4s for gps - do I need an app - which one is best...prefer free of course...does it work from home or do I have to be on the road to access gps function?  Thanks!!

    There is a built in GPS and map function that provides basic navigation using Google Maps. It's hard to miss right there on the home screen. However, it is maunal; you have to tap "next" when you reach each waypoint, and it does not provide spoken directions. It also downloads maps in real time, so it can be slow if you have a slow data connection, and it uses a lot of data if you are on a limited data plan. It is excellent for walking and public transportation, less useful in a vehicle unless you have a navigator sitting in the car.
    There are several commercial GPS apps that you can buy from the App Store, but no free ones. Just search the App Store for "GPS".
