HT201472 how can I block lost/stolen phone?

Lost my phone, how can I block it so whoever has it can't use it?

lost/stolen                                     
No app on the iPod is required.                           
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or continue to show off-line.
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
iCloud: Erase your device
iCloud: Use Lost Mode
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order

  • How can we block a wireless phone number?

    We use fios tv/internet/phone package and recently almost every day we got 2 or 3 times phone calls from the same wireless phone number we do not know.  When we pick up the phone to answer, the caller makes no sounds and we have to hang up.  It is very annoying.  Is there a way that we can block this person phone number so that he/she can not bother us anymore?

    THere is a service you can subscribe to, not sure what the name is right now, but if you call the billing office and tell them you are getting harrasing calls, they can put a block on it.
    Some of the services like FiOS digital voice, the Hub or I think the old IOBI let you block up to 5 or so numbers so it shouldn't be a big deal.

  • How can i recover my stolen phone with my apple id removed already on the phone

    i need help badly. is there any way how to recover the phone? i live in the philippines so it's much more difficult to find since a lot of same cases like mine goes undetected.

    I've had an iPad for almost two years. When I purchased an iPhone last fall I set it up to use the same Apple ID as my iPhone. I've had no problems doing this. Try resetting each device and see what happens.
    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

    Without enabling Find My Phone you can't do a thing.
    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 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:

  • Hi anybody there who can help me ha..? My phone 5s was stolen 1 month ago..Find my phone is no a big deal, How can i know whether my phone is in use??

    Hi anybody there who can help me ha..? My phone 5s was stolen 1 month ago..Find my phone is no a big deal bcz it seems to be wiped out all data including settings. it might be in use somewhere turning new fresh Gadget.  How can i know whether my phone is in use??

    You would know for a fact if the device is in use, but if you go back to the find my iPhone app in iCloud.com, you can either select to erase it, or place it in lost mode, in which case, once the device makes a connection to the internet, it will automatically go into that mode.

  • Hi ,my name is napoleon from Australia ,just want to know like I went for holiday in the philippines and someone stole my iPhone 4S,how can I blocked that phone so that no one can use it?

    Hi my name is Napoleon and I just know what will happen to my iPhone 4S ,I went for a holiday in the Philippines las 2 weeks ago and some stole my iPhone 4S, how can I block the phone so that no one can use it?

    You can't block it from use worldwide. Some carriers will block phones reported as stolen. I hope you had a passcode on it and that you had set the option to erase the phone after 10 failed tries. If you didn't change every password on every account ever accessed from the iPhone. And cancel any credit cards that you have used from the iPhone.

    Was Find My iPhone enabled prior to the device being lost?  If it was not, there is no way to track the device.
