  • HT201365 how do I turn off find my iphone?

    I'm trying to restore a backup, but I keep getting a request to turn off Find My iPhone. It says that I should go to iCloud Settings and turn off Find My iPhone. However, on the iCloud Settings, Find My iPhone is greyed out.
    I don't want to restore my iPhone to factory settings and Restore from backup because I get an error message at the end (saying that either the device - 4S - is not compatible or the backup is corrupt). I restored it once to factory setting and then managed to restore from an old back up (April). Now I'm stuck at this point. Why is it so difficult to find simple instructions from Apple?

  • How do you turn off find my Iphone without being able to connect to the internet?

    I cannot turn the find my IPhone feature off on my old phone since there is no service because I activated my new 6 and the Wi-Fi is burned out on the old phone.  Need to turn this off for trade in purposes, but cant.  I have tried recovery mode through iTunes, but it does not delete any data on the phone or reset any feature.  Please help.

    Log onto icloud.com on a computer and see if you can turn it off on there.

    Do you mean restore the backup to the broken phone? I suppose you could, as well as restoring to a new device, if you have made a backup.

    Hi josegrøn,
    Apple Help says:
    Remove an iOS device or Mac on which you can’t turn off Find My iPhone
    If you can’t turn off Find My iPhone on the device, turn off the device so it goes offline, then remove it from Find My iPhone on iCloud.com.
    Turn off the device.
    Sign in to icloud.com/#find on another computer with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud).If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.
    Click All Devices, select the offline device, then click Remove from Account. If you don’t see Remove from Account, click All Devices again, then click the Delete (x) button next to the device.
    Regards,
    Vince

  • How can I turn off find my iPhone to restore when it won't let me into my phone settings.

    I went to use my phone last night and suddenly it says activation is required (which I'm not sure I understand alone) but I began to go through the steps and it says it can not activate because the beta has expired and I need to do a system restore. So I proceeded to do the system restore by plugging into iTunes and it tells me it  cannot do a restore unless I turn off find my iPhone but my phone will not allow me to look at any settings other than my wifi settings in its current state. How can I turn this off to proceed and what is going on with my phone in general?

    Force it into recovery mode to restore it as explained here: If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.  Sometimes you have to do this more than once to be successful.  After restoring, you'll have to restore an existing backup, if you have one.

  • How can i turn off find my iphone if i dont have the phone and its turned off

    i lost my phone, so activated find my iphone and also put the lock on it. the battery died so the fone is now off. i ended up buying a new phone and im trying to restore the latest computer back up onto the new fone but it is saying that i need to turn off find my iphone. i went to icloud and removed the lost device but because it is turned off its not working . is there any way around this or at least getting my photos and contacts onto my new fone. and i dont have anything saved on icloud

    after ive connected the phone to itunes and i click on restore backup a box pops u and says
    Find my iphone must be turned off before 'My Iphone' can be restored.
    Go to icloud settings on you iphone and turn off Find my Iphone before restoring your iphone.
    the first time this came up i went into icloud on my computer and removed the old phone from there but from what ive read it will only be properly removed when the fone gets turned back on.

  • TS4006 How do I turn off Find My Iphone from my PC

    I downloaded the new IOS& software into my Iphone 5 and I was trying to set the switch controls to make it easier to retrieve Apple Radio. Anyhow, I have locked myself out of my phone because the switch controls will not allow any button to work on the Iphone screen. I want to reset Iphone to an earlier time but I cannot because I can't turn off Find My Iphone from my Iphone settings. Is their anyway to do this from my computer so I can reset my iphone?

    My problems is that the Settings App keeps crashing, so I cannot go into Settings to turn off Find My Phone.
    I need to Restore my phone to,hopefully, get Settings to work again.  But I can't do a Restore until I turn off Find My Phone, which I can't do because Settings keeps crashing. 
    Talk about a vicious circle.  
    I went into iCloud/Find My Phone on my laptop and removed my phone.  I then went to iTunes to try a Restore but it STILL says I have to turn off Find My Phone.  I have done that three times now.
    Should I also take the step "Erase My Phone?"  I have a great  fear of doing that because what happens if I erase the phone and it STILL won't restore?  Then I'll be totally screwed.
    This all started because I updated to 7.1 yesterday. 
    Thanks, Apple!

  • 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

    Well if he /forgot/ his apple id then what he should do is to look up all of his email addresses to try to get the crendential's back...if he can't remember that then your brother gave you a beauitful paperweight, I hope you didn't pay for it

  • 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.
