How to use "find my phone" without using iCloud

How to use “find my phone” without using iCloud?
Previously, when I used my mobile me account I was not forced to use iCloud.  Is there a way around this?

Just ignore any prompts you get. Don't click the move to iCloud button and don't visit me.com/move. Just keep using mobileme as you have been.
The ONLY clickable button is "Open iCloud.com".  I have NO other options. (Using Mac OS on a MacPro)
( somehow my reply was marked as a correct answer, I did not do this, and I can find a way to remove it.)

  • HT201365 How to use Find my Phone with secondary iCloud account in iOS 7

    The ability to use Find my Phone with a secondary iCloud account has been removed in iOS 7.  I want to be able to track my children's phones, but don't want to share an iCloud account with them.  They know I am tracking their phones, and this worked fine for us prior to iOS 7.  On their phones, I had Find my Phone turned off under their iCloud, and then added my iCloud to their phone as a secondary account, and turned Find my Phone on under my iCloud account.  When I would launch Find my Phone on my phone, it would show me the location of all of my devices and of their phones. 
    In iOS 7, Find my Phone is not listed under the secondary account.  What is the workaround for this?  I know that I can go to a PC and log into their iCloud account and see Find my Phone that way, but I can't do that from my iPhone because it is linked to my iCloud account.
    Can I link two or more iCloud accounts in the Find my Phone app on my phone? 

    Just ignore any prompts you get. Don't click the move to iCloud button and don't visit me.com/move. Just keep using mobileme as you have been.

    Your only alternative to find the iPhone is to start looking for it just as you would for anything else. There is no way the web or anyone else can help you.
    Call the carrier and have her account on the iPhone disabled and then no one can usr it.

  • HT4993 how can u find a phone if the icloud has not been turned on?

    does anyone know how to track ur phone if it is stolen?

    The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
    If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
    If locked with a passcode, all a thief has to do is force the phone into recovery mode & restore it. While this deletes all data on the phone, it also removes the passcode so the phone can then be used as a phone or touch.

  • How can i find my ipod without using the app

    i lost my ipod and i dont know where it is. i dont own a iphone to use the finding app. what can i do?

    The "finding app" or iphone has nothing to do with it.
    IF you set up find my ipod on the ipod itself AND it is on AND it is connected to wi-fi AND it has not been found and restored, then you may be able to get an aproximate stree address using icloud.com.
    Otherwise, you annot track it.

  • How can i find my iPod Without using iCloud? I had it enabled

    I was at school and somebody stold it, now i tried using the app but it doesnt let me because it says iCloud isnt enabled . Please help?

    If you activated the Find My iPhone service (in Settings>icloud), and if the device's batteries still have a charge, the device is not turned off and has not been reset and is connected to wifi, then you can try to track it.  Using a computer, log into icloud.com and look at the Find My iPhone page.  On a device, invoke the Find My iPhone app (get it for free at the itunes app store) and log into the icloud account.
    If the device is listed as "offline", then one of the requirements listed above is not met (like being connected to wifi, or if the device was stolen and the thief reset it).

  • How can i find an iphone without having icloud setup?

  • How do I turn off icloud on my iphone 4s? Can I still use Find My Phone?

    How do I turn off icloud on my iphone 4s?
    Can I still use Find My Phone?

    You cannot use Find My iPhone without iCloud.
    If you want to sign off of your iCloud account on your iPhone, you go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and sign out. It will ask for your password so it can turn off Find My iPhone before removing the iCloud account from your device.
    Cheers,

  • HT201394 I just updated my iPhone 4s to iso 8.2  How do I create a pass code to open my phone without using my password every time?

    I just updated my iPhone 4s to iso 8.2  How do I create a pass code to open my phone without using my pass word every time?

    I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
    I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more.  And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should.  On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much.  I will post a note in the app store to let them know.  I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
    I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine. 
    Starbucks app works as it should. 
    I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

  • 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)

    i lose my iphone but i turn off icloud >> how i can use ( find my phone )   or another way or another sofware to find my iphone
    please help me

    You have to have iCloud enabled and Find My iPhone set to On on your iPhone in order to find it.  If you're saying you turned this off before losing it I'm afraid you're out of luck.
