HT1937 I lost my phone and searched in i cloud but could not locate my phone. I need help to retrieve it back
I lost my i Phone 4S 2 days before. Now I have blocked my sim card through my service provider. Since power is completely drained off it is in off mode. How will I able to trace it back. Please help me.
You can't. How would you expect to? If it is not powered on, or is unable to connect to a cellular or WiFi data network, or if whoever found it has wiped the phone, you will not be able to locate it by any means other than physically looking for it.

I have both an iphone and an ipad. I foolishly updated both to ios7, but do not like many of the new features, particularly the calendar.
How can i go back to ios6 ??You cannot go back to a previous iOS version.
State your dislikes to Apple regarding iOS 7 here:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
That's just about all anyone can do...Apple only "listens" through the feedback process. -
This is driving me crazy. I've down everything I can find online and even spoken to my network provider. Just not working.
Call AppleCare, & they will fix while you're on the phone. Ask to talk to "Account Security".

I'm stuck on activation screen because my phone won't accept my password for my apple i.d. I reformat and reset and updated everything but it still wont go through..please help
Try making a new Apple ID? I don't really understand what you mean.. Make a new apple ID, log in with that one and then when you are on your phone log out of it and THEN log in our old ID? If you still can't log in the old one then it's most probably a bug or something.. Anyway.. Good luck with your problem!!

I am seeking how to bring my data from the cloud to my laptop after having had the hard drive replaced
Open System Preferences > ICloud
Make sure Contacts and Calendars are selected.
iCloud should sync your data automatically. -
help i lost my iphone and i have the find my iphone app on my phone but cant seem to figure it out without my iPhone
Did you have Find My iPhone enabled on your iPhone in its settings? If so, go to www.icloud.com and use your Apple iCloud ID to use the Find My iPhone app.

I recently lost my iPhone and tried to use "Find my iPhone" but did not see my phone listed. Why is that?
If it is not turned on and connected to the Internet it will not show up. If has been restored to factory condition it will not show up.

I bought I phone 5c from A market in HAITI and i reset the phone ,after i could not activate the phone because it has an apple id,the seller dos not know the id,HAITI has no apple store,the i phone not stolen or in lost mode,SO WHAT I DO?
There is nothing you can do. That is the Activation Lock that Apple has implemented tout down on theft of their iPhones.
Most likely the iPhone is stolen.
It is totally worthless to you. -
I've set a factory job and now I can not remember my mail and I could not activate the phone ..alrjae help me re- activate the phone and this zip to communicate with me ******
<Email Edited by Host>Contact that someone else to have them delete their account.
The previous owner needs to do this:
Prepare your device to sell or give away
There is no workaround for Activation Lock.

Hi - how do I download items already purchased? I have tried store and search for available downloads but it tells me they are already downloaded - they are not however - fyi I lost my phone so I am using a new phone with the same apple id and assumed I could just re-access my previously purcahsed items - how do I find them to download?
Many thanksmany thanks for a really fast response - Yes I have seen on other postings since you only get one hit and you are right I should have backed up and didn't as I am a bit of a novice and naive (but learning fast now). Have used your suggestion and accessed and downloaded some historical apps.
many thanks - I will ensure I back up regularly going forward.
Thanks again -
I bought an iPhone 4 from a youngster who had put his own Apple ID on it but could not remember the password. I backed it up yesterday and restored to my new iPhone and it copied the Apple ID across too. Now I have 2 phones with it on. Anything I do?
that must be really annoying !!
so this is what you call
FIND MY IPHONE ACTIVATION LOCK Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support
when you start using iCloud on any iOS device and enable find my iPhone, this prevents a new user from using it, and also prevents anyone from using the phone
as it is locked to previous owners account ,this is also the case if when a phone is lost or stolen.
the only way around this is to have the previous owner reset their apple id by going to @ applied.apple.com
if they are unable to do this, then the only other way around this is to have the previous owner get a copy of their original receipt and call apple support who can then lift this lock if they get a copy of the receipt
unfortunately there is no quick fix -> the below link explains what you should do before you sell or give away an iPhone

My partner was trying to sync my phone to iTunes on our mac but instead restored all his phone details to my phone. It appears that I have lost everything. I have no backup. How can I restore my iPhone.
hmm thats kinda odd! how he managed to do that i dont know I thought the backups were locked per phone or phonenubmers serial. Anyhow IF you have no backup at all then you have lost everything. There is software out there that can recover data on the phone that was deleted.. I would personally click restore on Itunes and restart over. You cant get back what you lost that easy and software that does recover deleted data may not allways work 100% and costs money for the software..
Lesson learned huh.. -
I've lost my iPhone5 like 40 hours ago. I already turned the Lost mode on with Find my iphone app. But my phone has no data plan so it could not connect to the internet at all. I reported to the police, too. What else can I do? Can anybody advise?
No...see the link I posted:
If you did not enable Find My iPhone on your missing device
If you did not enable Find My iPhone before it was lost or stolen, you can't use it to locate or protect your device, but you can still follow these steps:
Change your iCloud password to ensure that no one else can use your device to delete or make changes to your iCloud data.
Report your lost or stolen device to local law enforcement and your wireless carrier. Apple doesn't track or flag lost or stolen products, but you can use My Support Profile (supportprofile.apple.com) to find a list of serial numbers for products that you've purchased or registered with your Apple ID. -
