my find my iphone will not find anything since the download iOS7. passwords are in, cant even find the iphone that I am using. It can only find the iphone with iOS6 in it.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try turning Find my phone and location services off, restarting the phone and enabling the services again.

I cannot get Find My iPhone to work!

I have researched all the other questions related to this issue on the forums here at Apple and tried all the suggestions. Network is connected. I have performed resets. Location services and find my iPhone are on. My Apple ID is set correctly. I've tried everything but I must be missing something else.
I am on the latest iOS version and I have an iPhone 5S.
I don't know what else to try. Any new suggestions?

When I go into iCloud and tell it to find my iPhone, it says my iPhone is not connected to the Internet.
Last week when I thought I lost the phone, I put it into lost mode. The problem is I found the phone, but it never went into lost mode.
The phone is indeed connected to the Internet. I have been using it on both the home wifi and the Verizon LTE network. iCloud cannot seem to find it even though it is connected to the Internet.
Putting it into lost mode has never locked down the phone.
Location services are on, find my iphone is on....everything related I can possibly set to on has been set to on.
Still does not work.

TS3376 Can anyone tell me how do I get find my Iphone working on my windows PC

Hi does anybody know how to get find my iphone working on my windows PC. Even Icloud for that matter.

You can't set up Find My iPhone on a PC. You can only set it up on an iOS device or Mac (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f0c67). You can, however, use Find My iPhone from your PC to track a device with Find My iPhone enabled on it by going to icloud.com, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f2442.
Also, you can't sync your Windows XP computer with iCloud. iCloud requires Vista SP2 or higher (see http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html).

I presently use iCloud and run a laptop PC plus an iPad2 and an iPhone 4. I plan to travel and want to take my netbook, rather than the laptop PC for travelling. How do I get my apple tools to work mwith a new, temporary PC?

You can export ONLY Camera Roll photos and videos.

All my apps were downloaded from my new apple ID. Not his.
Sign in to iTunes Store (on desktop itunes) with your ID. Plug your iphone to itunes, right click on it and choose transfer purchases.Right click again and choose backup. Then you can sync with iTunes.

Your conversations will not deleted if you sync with your iTunes.
What is the problem with iCloud? iCloud has nothing to do with iTunes syncing.

Stolen iPad recovered with Find my iPhone - It works!

Thought I would take a moment to share my experience using find my iPhone to recover my stolen iPad.
I recently had a layover at an airport in Michigan on my way to Toronto. Like an idiot, I left my iPad in the seat back on the first leg of my flight. I didn't realize it until I arrived at my destination in Toronto. I called the airline and was told that they couldn't send someone to look for it, but would happy to notify me when it was turned in if I filled out a lost article report on their website. They were confident that since it was left on the plane it would be turned in by their cleaning team.
After a few minutes I remembered Find my iPhone and activated the App on my iPhone. Within about 30 seconds I had a location on my iPad. It was still sitting in the terminal at the airport!
Fast forward to about 5:00 PM.....
I pull up the App again and see that my iPad is now moving away from the airport on the highway. After several minutes I watch as it turns into a neighborhood and pulls up outside of a house. There it stays for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile I have been sending alerts to the iPad screen with my contact information asking whoever has it to contact me immediately. Luckily they had not turned it off.
Now I am able to note the intersection nearest the location of my iPad and plug it into Google Maps. I find the house and drop a pin on it to reveal the street address. I then call the local Police, but they can't help me because I am not physically there to identify my property. Not what I was hoping for, but understandable.
My next idea was to find out if I can learn who owns the house and work out a way to conact them. I start looking for the local tax assessors office on the web and sure enough the database is accessible online. I now have the name of the owner in addition to the address! Now I figure I can contact the airline and give them this person's name to find out if they were working on the plan I was on. If so, at least they would be able to share that information with the airline and make it uncomfortable for the thief.
Now I am wondering if I can find the guys phone number! After a few web searches, I get a hit on the local version of the whitepages that gives me the phone number. I go ahead and call the number. To my surprise the guy answers the phone!
After getting hung up on a couple of times I was able to leave a voicemail with my contact information and let the person know I was pretty sure they worked for the airline since that is where I left my iPad. I assured him that I would not stop calling the airline with his name address and phone number until he lost his job unless he called me by tomorrow morning and made arrangements to return my property. Sure enough it turned out he works for the airline and called me back at 10:30 that night. After explaining to me that this was all a mistake he agreed to return it to me via fed ex next day delivery. I agreed to consider the matter closed and not pursue it any further with his employer if I received it back undamaged.
36 hours later I received my iPad back! I had initated a wipe on the device, so had to restore from back up, but besides that everything was great!
The moral of the story is to make sure you know how to use find my iPhone!! It could save you a lot of money!
PS, I know that I lost my iPad by leaving it on the plane. However, that does not give the airline employee the right to keep it. When he took it home with him, it went from lost to stolen...

Great sleuthing and story. It's great you got your iPad back. And that guy should really lose his job, but you said you wouldn't report him and I'm sure you're going to keep your word. I wonder though, how many other people's possessions he's taken home with him. How some people can sleep at night is beyond me.
I once went to the grocery store to pick up one item. I didn't need a cart. so of course I manged to remember other items I needed, and when I realized I couldn't hold everything, I put a bar of soap in my coat pocket and knew I'd remember to pay for it at checkout. When I got home, I realized I still had the bar of soap and I had not paid for it. So, I drove right back to store and walked up to the manager and explained what I did and that I wanted to pay for the bar of soap. I think he thought I'd lost my mind, but I could never take something that didn't belong to me.
Anyway, thanks for the good story with a great ending!

Re: how to get apps for iphone 3g 4.2.1

Re: how to get apps for iphone 3g 4.2.1 all apps support higher version help....
Sep 24, 2013 6:34 AM (in response to Rajmit)
I still have an old 3G which I use mostly as a ipod/radio. By accident I found you can overide the i-tunes block.
1. Select Apps in Apps store icon on the phone.
2. Choose App to download
3. At "Instal" button press it QUICKLY in blocks of 3 presses, keep doing this until it overides the i-tune warning, then if there were legacy versions for os 4.2.1 it says something like "this app is for os 5 or above", but gives you a choice to download an older version. Select this.
Sometimes it says the Apps is for newer hardware, requiring motion sensors, front camera's etc.. just got to accept these ones don't work on legacy hardware.
4. Download does not work for all Apps, esp. newer ones written after os 4.21 or if the developer doesn't have the vintage apps archived- e.g. Instagram downloads, but won't run (wants to update), or WSJ and Barrons stalls and goes through a download loop.
I am not making this up, as I bought this old 3g unit on e-bay, after a complete factory reset I now have:
- Tune-in, FB, Pandora,Skype, Twitter, Bloomberg, MSNBC, Forbes, Marketwatch, Viber, amongst a host of other news apps like LATimes.
Some Apps will download ok, and then at activation says its too old and no longer supported e.g Whats App.
Otherwise, good luck. Tune-in, Pandora, Skype and Twitter is all I need to keep me happy with an old unit, even though I've got newer hardware. Never let anything die unnaturally.

HT4623 After i updated my iPhone i realized i do not have my camera anymore how to get it back? I also using a new notebook so I do not have a back up to transfer it from. Please help

After i updated my iPhone i realized i do not have my camera anymore how to get it back? I also using a new notebook so I do not have a back up to transfer it from. Please help

I'm assuming you mean you don't have your camera application (which is not saved on any backup anyway).
One way to find it is to get to your home screen, swipe the screen from right to left, and type "Camera" in the search field. Camera is a core Apple app and cannot be deleted, so it must be there somewhere.
An alternate approach is to do Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout

How do i find my iphone 5c if lost

how do i find my iphone 5cif lost

If you had "Find My iPhone" enabled 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 iPad" has not been disabled on it.
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.

Find my iPhone not working

My son's iPhone 4s was locked a few months ago by some friends who were playing a joke on him. They input the wrong passcode over and over again until it was locked indefinietly. I had to restore the iPhone using a method I found online and got his phone working again. I didn't realize it until recently, but his Find My iPhone app no longer works. It is on and logged in as my Apple ID (although I have to continually put the password in). Anytime I try to use Find My iPhone to locate his phone, it shows me that his phone is offline. Even when I open the app on his phone and try to locate his phone, it says it's offline.
I feel that this issue has something to do with the restore that I did. I don't remember exactly HOW I restored the phone, but know I used iTunes. I've checked his settings for Location Services and Find My iPhone...All are active and Find My iPhone is active on my sons phone. His phone is also updated to the most recent iOS software. The wierd thing is, I CAN find him or his phone using the Find Friends app. He has a tendency to misplace his phone in our home and the Find My iPhone app is great because it allows me to send a signal to play a sound to help us locate it. The Find Friends app doesn't have that capability. Has anyone else had an issue with Find My iPhone not working after a restore?

Usually Apple recommended the below steps :
Why your iPhone (iPad, or iPod Touch) not appear in Find My iPhone?
Here are some reasons:
Your iCloud account is not configured on your device. Choose Settings > iCloud and enter your iCloud account information.
Your device is not update. It needs to be running iOS 5 or higher.
The date is incorrect on your device. Choose Settings > General > Date & Time to check and set the date.
Your device has lost network connectivity. If you have access to your device, and it appears to have an active Internet connection, in this case enable and then disable Airplane mode or turn the device off and back on.
Your device appears in Find My iPhone, but is offline, the reasons:
Your device is powered off, such as when the battery has run out.
Your iPhone’s cellular service has been terminated by your wireless service provider.
Your iPod Touch, iPad, or Mac is asleep and not connected to a known Wi-Fi network. The command will be processed when your device is awakened and connected to the Internet.
