How to install find my iphone on my mac

I have downloaded the software but don't know how to install it

not sure what you are trying to install
but as soon as one sign the mac up with icloud
the find my iphone for osx is active
one can track it using icloud.com
mind you it would not really let you track a stolen computer as it would only work when it was on
and logined to the account which have an active connection with the icloud account

  • TS4006 How  do I find my iPhone using my Mac.

    I have the findmyihone app on my iphone, no problem. But what if I want to find the location of my iphone using my MacBook Pro? Any help would be appreciated!

    Go to iCloud.com in your browser. Sign in and click on the Find My iPhone button:
    The rest is self evident.

    Hopefully your iPhone is with you. Open current version of iTunes on your Mac. Connect iPhone to the Mac with the USB cable. iPhone name will appear in left column. Click on iPhone name.

  • How i can stop sharing my contacts with other iphone after installing find my iphone?

    After installing find my iphone in other devices my contacts starting sharing with that device. How i can stop that?

    The two devices are using the same iCloud ID, hence they are syncing the contacts, as the system is designed to do.
    BTY, I'm not sure what your intention was to install the Find My iPhone app, but if you are trying to start that service, the app won't help. It is intended to locate OTHER devices.  To start the Find My iPhone service, you do it via the settings.

  • I lost my ipad how to track it .have not installed find my iPhone app on my ipad .

    I lost my iPad Air .. How to trace it . Itz only a week I have got it .. Have not installed find my iPhone app in my ipad .. Itz is a wifi + 3G model .. What to do?

    You do not need to install the "Find My iPhone" App.
    If you had "Find My iPad" 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 iPad" has not been disabled on it. Note: Disabling "Find My iPad" 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.

  • How can I install "Find my iPhone" on an old iPad 3?

    I've recently gotten a new iPad, but my old iPad 3 is still working fine. So I've done a complete wipe on it and I've given it to a friend who has little interest in computing: she just wants to email and get on the internet. My friend will have to undergo surgery next week and will take the iPad 3 with her to the hospital -- she'll be in the hospital for a week or two. Before she went, I wanted to install 'Find my iPhone' on the iPad 3 in case it goes walkabout in the hospital.
    However, when I tried to install it, AppStore insisted I upgrade to iOS 8, which I don't think the iPad 3 can pull off. I once upgraded to to iOS 5 or 6 and regretted that real soon -- the iPad 3 just doesn't have the processor speed to handle all that advanced stuff. It's doing fine on iOS 4 and I want to keep it that way. Is there some way to make AppStore install the old 'Find my iPhone'? I still have some backups of the iPad 3 pre-wipe -- could I extract 'Find my iPhone' from there and put it back on the iPad 3 without doing a full restore? Is there some other way we can keep track of the iPad 3 without updating?

    If you have iOS 4.3 on it then it's not an iPad 3 (they were initially launched with iOS 5.1 installed on them), it's either a first gen iPad (if it doesn't have cameras), or a 2nd gen : Identify your iPad model - Apple Support.
    The Find My iPhone app is used to try and locate other devices from it, it won't help you locate that iPad if it's lost. To be able to potentially locate and track that iPad you need Settings > iCloud > Find My iPad 'on' on it, but iCloud only became available with iOS 5 (so you won't have the setting on iOS 4.3). You will need to update the iPad (you can only update a device to the highest iOS version that it supports i.e. 5.1.1 for the first gen iPad, 8.1.3 for other iPads) if you want to be able to enable it

    Find My Phone requires iCloud, which requires iOS 5.0 or higher. So, if you want to use Find My Phone, you need to update your phone. Follow the directions here:

    You don't have to install the Find My iPhone app - you need to switch the feature on in the settings on the phone.
    If you go here: https://www.icloud.com/#find does your phone show up?

    Off is off.
    There is no way to track it if it is off or if it has been restored by the thief.
