HT201365 Stop tracking location of iphone using find my iphone

From a friend I've heard horror stories of her (nosey, rule making kids)   (she is 40 and in good health) watching her all over town, in her home and even in other states while she travels.    Her fault, she let her kids set up her apple id.  I just changed my password and all my identifyable password questions; am I at the same risk, from the ex (not the kids)?   Thank you   Please reply.  Im afraid to even have the find my iphone app downloaded and/or turned on!  

Wi-Fi only iPad do not have GPS.
Your daughter's iPad have to rely on crowd-sourced Wi-Fi hotspot and cell tower locations to determine her approximate location.

    It's unfortunate that your device has been stolen.  You can report this to the police, but as has been answered before, if the device is restored you CANNOT locate it. 
    It probably is technically possible to track your device by the SIM; law enforcement will not waste their time doing so.  Besides, the thieves have probably changed it anyway.
    While unfortunate your iPad is gone, you really need to move on.

  • TS4006 IF the ipad has been reset by someone who stole it, would we still be able to locate our device using Find my Iphone?

    F the ipad has been reset by someone who stole it, would we still be able to locate our device using Find my Iphone?

    If you mean restored to factory settings, then no, you can not continue to track it.

    If the iPhone has been taken offline by power-off, disabling 3G/4G and WiFi or erasing data & settings,  It can no longer be located by you.

  • When I click on a file to view in Finder in the view as columns, Finder stops responding.  If I use Finder in any of the other views, I don't have an issue.

    When I go to finder and view as columns so that the right column will open a preview of the file, I get the endless spinning graphic and when I go to Force Quit, it shows that Finder has stopped responding.  When I use Finder in any other view mode, I don't have that issue.  This just started today.  As far as I know, I haven't done any updates today that would cause the issue.  I've restarted a few times.  I'm running 10.10 on iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011).  I when to updates in the App Store and saw there was an update for 10.10.1 and tried to run it twice now.  It starts to install and says I have 7 minutes left and then at about 3 minutes, it just opens all my windows again and acts normally.  When I go to "About this mac", I'm still showing 10.10 as the OS.  Also, in the App Store, when I click on updates, it shows me 4 updates that I've already installed as ready to install.  Not really sure what's going on nor why all the sudden this is an issue, but I use the preview mode in Finder all the time so I would love a fix for this.  I've tried logging out and logging in as another user and the same issue with Finder happens with other users as well.  I've emptied my trash bin as well. 

    Step one is to log into a newly created admin user account and see if the problem persists.

  • My ipad got stolen! Any way to track it immediately without using find my iphone?

I already used find my iPhone and locked it etc....Help!!

    If you have not enabled Find My iPad, you cannot track, lock or wipe your iPad.
    Change your iCloud password so that they cannot make changes or delete your data.
    Report to police with serial number.

  • How to use "Find my iPad"?

    When you locate a device using Find My iPhone app, I type a message and it sends the message to the device. It also shows on my computer the location. My question is this: Once this is done, I can move my device to another location, turn it off or keep it on but the only thing that the computer will show is the location again. How do I get to the window that allows me to send a message/sound again? As an example, if I recover the device and then lose it shortly thereafter, going to the computer only allows me to see the map from the initial time that I lost it.

    I'm glad to help,
    Here's How:
    As noted above, you need to have set up Find My iPhone on your device prior to it getting lost or stolen. If you did, go to https://www.me.com/ in your web browser (there's also a Find My iPhone app [opens iTunes link] that you can install on another iOS device to track it. These instructions are for using the web-based tool).Log in using the account you used when setting up Find My iPhone. This may be your Apple ID/iTunes account.
    When you log in, Find My iPhone will immediately begin trying to locate your device. You'll see onscreen messages as it works. If the device is turned off, the map will display its last known location, not necessarily its current location. When it's turned back on, the map will update.If it finds your device, it will zoom in on the map and show the location of the device using a blue dot. When this happens, you can zoom in or out of the map, and view it in map, satellite, and hybrid modes, like any Google Map.
    When your device is found, a window will pop up over the blue dot (if it disappears because you clicked elsewhere on the page, just click the blue dot again to get it back). Click the window and you'll see the various options you have.The first option is to send a message to the device or have it play a sound. You can send a message--for instance, letting someone know how to return the device to you--that will appear onscreen like a text message.Sending a sound to the device is best when you think you've misplaced your device in the house or office and want help finding it.
    You can also click the "lock" button. This will allow you to remotely lock the device's screen and set a passcode (even if you hadn't previously used a passcode) that will prevent the thief from using your device or accessing your personal data.To do this, click the "lock" button, enter the 4-digit lock code you want to use twice, and then click "lock" again. Your device will now be inaccessible to the thief unless they guess your code.
    For even greater security, you can also remotely delete all data from the device. To do this, click the "wipe" button. There, you'll see a warning (basically, don't do this unless you're absolutely sure you want to). Click the box that says you understand what you're doing and click the "Erase All Data" button. This will delete all your data, preventing the thief from accessing it.If you get the device back, you can restore your data from backup.
    If you think your device is on the move, click the curved arrow at the top right corner of the screen to refresh and get a new fix on your device's location.
    hope this helps!!

  • I misplaced my iPhone and used Find My iPhone to track it down. It shoudl me a Google type may with my current location and the location of the iPhone; it was located in a ]heavily wooded area a few miles from my home. That was incorrect, Why?

    I misplaced my iPhone and used Find My iPhone to locate it. The map showed my home and the apparent location of the iPhone which was five miles south of my home in a heavily wooded area. It turns out that was an incorrect location as I eventually found my iPhone in my office three miles in the other direction. Can anyone provide m with an explanation for the discrepancy and inaccuracy?

  • HT204053 I was using find my iphone on my pc and i accidentally chose to remove the device. I didnt realize it would permanently take the iphone off the grid. I thought it would just temporarily stop locating, How do i find it now with no phone?

    I was using find my iphone on my pc and i accidentally removed the device. I thought that meant just temporarily removing it since it was not able to locate or remote lock or wipe my lost phone. Now how do i put it back on? it appears to have ben permanently taken off the grid and now i cannot continue to try to locate my iphone. The phone did have find my iphone turned on. Can i put it back on>? i dont have the phone obviously its stolen.

    At this point you can't do anything.  But today, thieves are smart - they know how to combat the Find My iPhone service, so you probably wouldn't find the phone anyway.  That service is primarily used for lost devices, less for stolen devices.

  • My iphone has been lost in my house and i need to find a way to track it and its offline. it wont connect to the internet so there isnt a way to use find my iphone. i just want to play a sound on it. is there any way i can get a app that connects my ipod

    my iphone has been lost in my house and i need to find a way to track it and its offline. it wont connect to the internet so there isnt a way to use find my iphone. i just want to play a sound on it. is there any way i can get a app that connects my ipod from a laptop or a different way to find it.

    If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way.  Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

    What To Do If Your iDevice 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 it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular. 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:
