HT201472 Some one stole my iPhone and I don't have service on it
I was recently playing basketball at the YMCA and some one stole my iPhone out of my back pack after I put it on the ground. I need help finding it and I don't have service on it. How an I find my iPhone without wifi.
You can't track it unless it has a connection to the internet. Without cellular service or wifi all you can do is physically look for it or try calling your number to see if someone answers. Neither are probably going to work if it was stolen. Put it in lost mode and change your passwords, including your iCloud password so the theif doesn't erase your data and take over your account.

No. You cannot track it if it's offline.
What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
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:

Hi I've just lost my iphone and I don't have Icloud is there anyway to redeem my contacts
Hi I've just lost my iphone and I don't have Icloud is there anyway to redeem my contacts
You have a few options...
1. Hopefully you have done a backup in iTunes which would have stored your contacts
2. Check the email account that you had on the iPhone. For instance with Gmail there is a Sync Contacts option on the iPhone which if turned on, would have sent your contacts from your phone to the contacts in your Gmail, so check your email from a computer to see if they are there.
3. Only other option I can think of is if you have an old phone with contacts still on it. -
some one stone my ipod touch and change my password and he forget the password and now i cant restore what do i do
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I lost my iphone and i don't have the app to trace it, how do i find it?
I lost it yesterday at my friends house, I don't have the app on my iPhone, but I really need this phone back in my hands because it stores much important information on it. I really need anybody's help.
Report it to the local police. Give them as much information as you can and hope for the best. Your important information should be included in your regular back ups.
Best of luck. -
hi
a friend of mine has bought a second hand iphone 5s . in icloud setting an old apple id has been set.he'd like to change it with his own , he isn't able to change it because the password of old apple id is required , and every 10 sec a message is appeared that needs a password ( find my iphone ). he has set his own apple id in itunes store , but in i cloud he couldn't find a person that he has bought it from .how can we fix this problem .
i'm looking forward to hearing from you .
thank you
sincerelyThat is "activation lock". You won't be able to use the iPhone unless this is cleared by the original owner.

HT4061 someone stole my iphone and i dont have the serial number. how can i find my iPhone?
someone stole my iphone and i don't know how to use the find my iphone app. i don't have the serial number. can somone tell me how to find my iphone?
Having a serial number won't help you track it.
If you set up and activate find my iphone on your iphone, then go to icloud.com and sign in to track your phone.
That is the only way to track your phone.
contact your cellphone provider and local authority. -
My contacts don't sync on icloud on my iphone some contacts disapear on iphone and some contacts hae been merged together to make one contact when they are not related. Can anyone help?
If you log into Icloud.com, are all your contacts correct there? If the answer is Yes, I would then turn contacts OFF on your phone, and then turn them back on. Do not merge, but replace with Icloud content.
This is usually the quickest way to edit a bunch of contacts, through the web interface. -
As I put in my question, someone stole my Iphone and I notice I didn't have an Icloud account so I created one to try find my Iphone and then elimate everytihng but when I tried to do it, it didn't work. And don't know what else I can do.

Hey some one stole my ipod touch 5g 3gb i want to see if theres a way i can track it down
hey some one stole my ipod touch 5g 32gb and i want to see if theres a way i can track it down
NO you cannot
As I said before,
IF you set up find my ipod on the ipod itself and it is on and it is connected to wi-fi and the thief has not restored it, then you may be able to get an approximate street address using icloud.
Otherwise it cannot be tracked at all.
Report it to the police and change your passwords." -

i have an iphone and my 2 children have ipods. all 3 on the same apple id. when one ipod gets a facetime call, all 3 devices ring. how do i prevent all three devices getting the facetime call as it is intended for only one of the ipods?
You can all have independent AppleIDs for iCloud or iMessage etc, but share the same one for iTunes Store / AppStore purchases.

So I have an iphone and for some reason I don't know the password for my Apple ID so I can't download apps and I don't have the password to my email to change it and I don't know the secret questions , what can I do to make a new Apple ID ?
I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?
