How to turn off "find my iphone" when all the buttons are disable about on/off in my icloud account?

MY APPLE ID AND ICLOUD ACCOUNT HAVE BEEN HACKED COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. ALL THE CONTENTS OF MY IPHONE HAS REMOVED. SO I HAVE RESTORED MY IPHONE BY USING MY OLD BACKUP. AND MY OLD ICLOUD ACCOUNT HAS RESTORED TO MY IPHONE AGAIN BUT THERE WAS NO ICLOUD ACCOUNT WITH MY EMAIL BECAUSE IT'S BEEN HACKED AND MY APPLE ID HAS BEEN SWITCHED TO HACKER'S EMAIL. SO I WAS NOT ABLE TO DELETE ICLOUD ACCOUNT, TO TURN OFF FIND MY IPHONE OR TO ERASE MY IPHONE. SO I M NOT STILL ABLE. I MEAN ALL THE BUTTONS IN MY ICLOUD ACCOUNT ARE DISABLE TO TAP. I WANNA ERASE MY IPHONE OR ERASE THE ICLOUD ACCOUNT.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
WAITING FOR YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS...

According to Apple support, you cannot remove the phone on the device list under "find my iphone" until you turn it off and it goes offline. (It also says the device will go back on "find my iphone" when it goes online again, which seems to mean you can successfully remove it, but as soon as you turn it back on it will be back on the list, and thus you will not be able to restore it.) It's a bit of a conundrum. In my case I couldn't for some reason turn off my phone with the home/sleep buttons - nothing happens, the phone stays on. While on a chat with Apple support, they got my iphone offline (I was able to turn it off by pressing the sleep button and swiping where the red "turn off iphone" arrow would have appeared) and removed it from "find my phone", but when I reconnected to itunes it turned on and reappeared in the "find my phone" list. Luckily, the screen suddenly appeared (it had done this several times yesterday, just briefly), so I was able to turn off "find my device" from the phone. I was then able to restore. Unfortunately, this does not answer the question of how to remove the device from "find my iphone" and keep it off while connecting with itunes to restore (unless you have my good fortune of having the screen suddently reappear). Apple support seemed puzzled that it had reappeared on the device list under "find my iphone". Time will tell whether the restoration fixes the blank screen issue.

How can you reinstall SL on a older mini, I just upgraded to Lion .Since I downloaded it, I made a disk copy for the future when all the kinks are work out. But would really like to go back to SL for now. I tried my reinstall disk, which didn't work.

I have an older Mac mini using SL as my last upgrade and really like it.. Just last week I upgraded to Lion, and do not like it,,,I would like to reinstall SL but do not know how to go about it,,,I did burn a copy of Lion and will reinstall it when all the kinks are worked out..Can someone tell me how uninstall Lion and reinstall SL.....Thx

Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

My camera app won't work, all the buttons are grey when I open the camera

when I open my camera, all the buttons are grey so that I can't take a picture, turn on flash, etc.
I can view my pictures taken but that's it.
have restarted it numerous times, no success.
thanks for your help.

Hello there, Johnmr88.
You might want to close out all apps first and foremost:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Then it might be worth attempting a restart of the iPhone, and then a reset, should that not resolve the issue.
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If the Camera app is still showing greyed out then you may want to try restoring the iPhone.

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

When using Tab Groups, is less power/memory used or is it the same as when all the tabs are opened in the task bar?

When using Tab Groups, is less power/memory used or is it the same as when all the tabs are opened in the task bar?

it's just another View for your tabs which needs less *space* in the taskbar, but same *memory* of your computer.
exception: if you (re)start FF and restore the last session (with lots of tabs/groups) there is an option in FF-Settings to load the (content of the) tabs only as soon as they are clicked, and not as soon as FF starts. That trick saves memory.

How can i turn off find my iphone when icloud says no devices connected?

I need to turn of find my iphone but can't because it says no devices connected when i sign into icloud

No...try logging in to iCloud via a computer. Go to your browser and type www.icloud.com then once you are logged in, you go to find my iPhone, under my devices, you should be able to see a list of devices that are linked to your iCloud, select the one you wanna disable and then a banner pops out, just go ahead and click on disable this iPhone and then your iCloud is going to be disabled. But mind you, you have to turn your phone off in the process of doing this. I hope this helps. Let me know if you need any further assistance.

Why did apple make me shut off find my iphone when i ordered a replacement iphone

I called 1800myiphone to get a replacement phone yesterday. When they told me they would send me a replacement the first thing the girl had me do was shut off find my iphone. Anyone know why?

That is required so that the Activation Lock is disabled.
As long as Find My iPhone is actived the only way anyone can do anything with it is by first entering your Apple ID and password. Otherwise all it is a brick.

How to remove event listener when all the MoviClip are off the stage

Hi i am newbie to as3,
    I am creating animation using as3 in which i duplicate the circle ten time,then pushing into an array and giving random motion. When all the duplicate object goes outside the stage then i should remove the event listener. But right now when one duplicate object goes off the stage the event listener is removed. Thanks in advance

//---------code for creating random bubble movement------//
var bubbleNo:Number = 10;
var vx:Number = .3;

Confused why my video exports at 640x480 when all the clips are 1280x720

All of my clips are from a canon 7d shot at 1280 60fps mostly surfing so I can slow it down. I added one clip which is at 640 to the project and when I exported the project in H.264 or any other setting it is only at 640. So I went back removed the clip and tryed to export again and it still only does 640 even though all the clips are now at 1280. I would hate to have to edit all over again. Thanks for any help.

Thanks I realized I can click the wrench at the bottum right of the inspector box and change the properties back to 1280 so that helped but I couldn't change the FPS they are stuck on 30 not the end of the world. I think I must have accidently put a 640 clip as the first clip when I dropped into the timeline and even though I deleted it, it kept everything at that setting . It would be nice if you could change the properties after the fact.

How do I turn off Find My iPhone when the Apple ID (email) is no longer available and I don't know the password?

The email which was used for my iCloud and Applie ID is no longer available to me and the password is not being recognised. I need to update my iphone to the new iCloud account and I am unable to delete the old as it keeps asking for the pasword for the old id / email to turn off Find my iPhone

How do I create a new playlist when all four options are not available

I'm running iTunes 11.1.5 under Mavericks 10.9.2. Because I have a very large music collection I keep it on an external drive. I have six recorded lectures I'd like to sync with my iPad. How do I create a new playlist based on the recordings on the external drive? All four New Playlist options are currently not selectable. I know it can be done because I've done it before years ago but have forgotten how.
Yes, I too wish iTunes were more coherent and less convoluted.
Appreciated.

Hi Try a Reboot press & hold power button & menu button hold both down until you see Apple Logo . Then go to music click on play list and try to make one. Cheers Brian

Hey guys, my iphone screen locks and sometimes it even prompts to be turned off. It's as if the buttons are stuck, but it doesn't feel like they are. Anyone got any clues on how to fix it?

Hey guys, i am having a little problem with my iphone 5 running on ios 7.1.1. My screen keeps locking and unlocking by itself and sometimes even prompts to power off. It makes it look like the power button is stuck but its not, this started after the phone hitting the floor some days ago. Kindly help me resolve this problem

Probably a hardware problem due to the fall. To rule out a software issue, set it up as new device, explained here:
