No. All you can do if you have Find My Phone setup is erase the device or lock it. It must be connected to Wi-Fi in order for the commands to take effect.
What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen
iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

If my phone was stolen and the thief turned off my iCloud, is there any other way to find it?
Only using the same technique you would use to find your wallet, look for it.

Is there any way to get a log of the bluetooth devices my Iphone has been connected to? I recenly had my Bluetooth Jabra stolen from my car and now a simliar one is on Craigslist. I'd like to give my connection log to the police before I go and see if my Iphone recognizes the device in question. Any way to get any type of bluetooth device connection log out of my iphone?
Your contacts should still be on whatever program you sync your iphone to (i.e. Outlook, address book).
The iphone is not a stand alone device. It is designed to be synced with a computer. If you have not been syncing with a compatible program, then you are out of luck. Your contacts are not included in the back-up because it is meant to be synced with your computer.
"Although iTunes backs up most of your iPhone and iPod touch settings, downloaded applications, and other information (Contacts, calendars, notes, images in the Camera Roll), your audio, video, and photo content are not included in the backup."

My iPhone 4s screen is cracked (due to being dropped) and I can't slide to unlock it. Several of the the icons on screen will not work either. Is there a way to recover my photos if the phone has never had a back up and never been synced with another device?

No in order to backup to iTunes, you would need to unlock your phone.
In order to import pics to your computer you would need to unlock your phone. -
there any way to know where my ipad, because it was stolen? and do not use iCloud? besides not remember if you have installed any applications to track it?
If you did not set up Find My iPad, then there is no way to track it. Contact the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPad (the iTunes Store, for instance).

It's there a way to shut down a macbook if it was stolen?
it's there a way to shut down a macbook if it was stolen?
Is it already stolen or are asking if it gets stolen in future?
In either case, if you have iCloud setup, you can do better than shut down. You can lock it remotely and 'usually' locate it using iCloud:
Here's how to set it up for your Mac:

My phone was stolen and my icloud is loged in and now my ipad is disabled and now asking for activation and it says there that i have to put my icloud account and i tried loging in my account but it says that it cannot open with that icloud account what do i do????
Welcome to the Apple Community Robin.
Contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan. -
My old phone was stolen and when trying to set up a new one and restoring my last backup from icloud it says: No backups available, even though i can see my last backup is saved/still there both on the new phone and my ipad, can one only restore from an earlier saved backup during the intitial set up of the phone, or are you also able to restore/pick up an older version later after is i set it up as a new phone? is any bright ideas please?
Did you figure this out? I'm having a similar issue.
Thanks! -

If your notes sync with your icloud account, you can access them at www.icloud.com -
Is there a way to view messages received on another phone in my plan?
Is there a way to view messages received / sent on another phone in my plan?
There are ways. The easiest would be to look at the phone.
Another way would be if Verizon Messages were installed on the phone in question and you could log into the MyVerizon account for the line in question to view SMS/MMS messages to/from that phone. Of course any messages sent via iMessage would not show up in Verizon Messages as they are not SMS/MMS messages. For those, you could possibly log into the Apple ID account on another Apple device to view those, but then SMS/MMS messages would not show up there.
This is why I prefer to disable iMessage on my iPhone so that I don't have to look in multiple locations to read my messages. I prefer to have all my messages sent/received via the same messaging platform so that I don't have to look in multiple places to view/manage them. -
I just switched carriers from AT&T to Verizon. I had the iPhone4 on AT&T but couldnt get service where we just relocated to. So, we made the switch today. I backed up my old phone one last time early last week, put it on eBay and sent it out the door last thursday. So to my surprise, i am just finding out that the verizon phone is not able to restore my old data from the backup i made (i should have looked into this a little more obviously...). I didn't write down any of my contacts from the old phone thinking they would all be backed up once i got the new one. Now I'm stuck without years of contacts! So, is there a way to view the contacts somehow in the backup files that iTunes created the last time i backed up my AT&T phone so I can at least manually enter them?? I sure hope there is something I can do. I'd hate to lose that many years of valuable business connections.
Thanks for any info in advance. It is much appreciated.If you followed the instructions in the manual you would have configured Contacts to sync to an app on your computer such as Outlook or Address Book. Then all you would have to do is set the new phone to sync with the same app on the computer. If you didn't do this you are probably out of luck, although there are some 3rd party apps that can extract data from the backup if it is not encrypted.

Is there a way to stream "older" photos to my PC that were stored on my Iphone before I implemented "Photo Stream? NOTE: My Photo Stream "pushing" function is working, but I can only push "new" photos to my PC.
It might not be streaming but have you considered copying the photos directly off the iphone onto your PC? I plug my phone in via the USB cable like usual and in Windows Explorer, navigate to Computer\Apple iPhone\Internal Storage\DCIM\860xxxx and there they are. Copy & paste and you have pictures.
Hope it helps. -
