How to locate a stolen phone which is active in different country. I have the serial number and IMEI number. It was brand new iphone 4S unlocked and never used.

I was relocating from USA to India using Air India airways. On reaching Delhi, I did not receive my luggage. After 5 days of my arrival, I received my luggage with broken lock and my 2 iphone 4S and one Macbook pro air was missing. All these products were brand new and unopened from box. I filed complained about my missing electronics items but came up with empty handed. All these electronic products are registered in Apple in my name. After 2 months, I came to know by calling Apple representative that one of the iphone4S is active and is using Turkey carrier. I have the IMEI number and the serial number of this active iphone but due to Jurisdiction area limitation, I cannot do anything. Please let me know what I can do at best to alteast find out the complete gang involved in this shameful international electronic stolen item trafficking business. I still wonder how my iphone 4S reached Turkey although my itinerary was from Baltimore to NewYork to Paris to Delhi.

The advisor should not have told you this for legal reasons. There is no way of tracking the iPhones just of finding out which SIM cards were used to activate them and if they were activated at all. Court can authorize Apple to release this information to the count. There is no legal way without involving a judge.

  • I just got a brand new iphone 4s yesterday and found out today that the phone already had 10 days 15 hours cellular time used

    I just got a brand new iphone 4s yesterday and found that the phone already had 10 days 15 hours cellular time on it, does it mean the phone is a used one?

    That's not a reset pin. There is no reset hole in which to poke it. Neither is there a reset button.  It is the SIM removal tool. If you had it, it would save you the agony of finding a paper clip.
    The User Guide is available at http://support.apple.com/manuals/ or downloadable from iTunes as an iBook.

  • I dropped my brand new iPhone in water and apparently my insurance doesn't cover eater damage. Is there any loop holes to get a new phone without paying full price, Can i upgrade my insurance and then send it in in a week or so?

    How long do you have to wait to make in insurance claim.

        kaebarber,
    We should take a closer look into some options for you. Normally insurance covers water damage. Which insurance do you have? Is it through Verizon Wireless?

  • How do I speed up my iphone 4 until it it's the same speed as before(when it was brand new)/

    Hey, so i got my iphone 4 in march 2012 and and recently i have noticed its a lot slower. I compared it with another iphone and i tested the speed.The other iphone was a lot faster. I was wondering is it possible to speed it up. Also, does restoring your iphone allow it to be like brand new? Thank you!!!

    You can try restoring as new device, not using backup at all.

  • My ipod was stolen and i need to know if there is a way to locate where its been registered or plugged in i have the serial number.

    hello my name is marco and my ipod was stolen during school its a 4th generation 32gb. i need help in how to start a process to finding it or tracking it i also have the serial number if that helps, the phone number to apple where i can report it missing would really help! incase someone uses it and attempts to register it can i get the location to where this attempt was made i.p. adress etc. please i need help this ipod is precious to me and its something that i can't just forget about.

    If you haven't turned on FindMyiPhone in settings (yes, even for the iPod), there's nothing you can do. Apple will not help you find it using the serial number.  If you did turn it on and the thief doesn't get into the iPod (you did have a passcode set, right?), then go to iCloud website using a browser, log in and try finding the iPod.  Unless the thief reset the device to factory settings, and if the wifi isn't off, it's location should show on the map.  After that it's up to you to report its location to the police.

    Thnks

    I'm sorry, but your sister, unless she had already turned on the "Find my iPhone" feature and the person who took the phone has not disabled it, is out of luck. She should report the theft to local police authorities, including the serial number of her iPhone. While her experience is unfortunate, there are good reasons why Apple cannot do anything else about it.
    I hope she gets her phone back.
    Best of luck.

    my iphone 5s was stolen and i gps d it and found where it was but they turned it off and denied it and i googled how to open iphone 5s without passcode and a youtube video showed how, so now i am out of a phone that i just paid 300 dollars for because i dropped my last 5s and the glass shattered and i didnt have any insurance. so now it seems like i am out again. i was sold on the fact that the fingerprint sensor would stop that from happening but they can just reset the phone and have it as theirs new. is there anything i can do to get my phone back.

    If you set up your phone correctly, it is still protected by the Activation Lock and can be used without knowing your AppleID and password.
    Here are some more things about that:
    What if your iOS device is off or offline?
    If your missing device is off or offline, you can still put it in Lost Mode, lock it, or remotely erase it. The next time your device is online, these actions will take effect. If you remove the device from your account while it's offline, any pending actions for the device will be cancelled.
    How do you turn off or cancel Lost Mode?
    You can turn off Lost Mode by entering the passcode on your device. You can also turn off Lost Mode on iCloud.com or from the Find My iPhone app.

  • Will apple be able to locate my stolen phone using my serial number?

    Will apple be able to locate my stolen phone using my serial number?

    No. Apple does not locate stolen iPhones. Report the theft to your wireless
    provider and local law enforcement. Change your passwords.
    Did you not have Find My iPhone activated? If yes, go to iCloud.com and
    log into your account. If your iPhone is powered on and has internet connectivity,
    you will be able to see its location; otherwise, you have to search for it
    physically.
