iphone stolen from car yesterday, any way for either me, or police to find it?
Only if you had installed the Find My iPhone app.
Change all your passwords for accounts associated with the phone. Call your provider to have the phone blocked and contact the police if you are able to cover the theft via your household contents policy though many may not cover theft from vehicles unless as a specific clause.

My macbook got stolen from my apartment, any way to track it down?
I left my macbook on my desk and it was in sleep mode, the screen was shut and when i came back from my friend's house it was stolen, somebody walked into my apartment and just took my laptop. Luckily i setted up a password so that everytime they open up the screen it requires a password. Is there any way to track down my macbook pro? it's the early 2011 kind. I don't remember setting up track my mac on the icloud, is there any other way of tracking it down? Like serial number or something? I already reported it to the police but im not sure if they're gonna do anything about it. All my school work is on my macbook and I just feel so hopeless and I just want it back.
Reporting it to the police is really the only thing that your can do. A smart thief will be able to bypass your password so I suggest that you change all of your passwords on all of you accounts - starting with your Apple ID, bank accounts, credit card companies, etc.
If you'd had the iCloud "Find My Mac" enabled you might have been able to track it down if the thied went online - but even then, a smart thief could bypass that.
Were you insured? A replacement is about the best you can hope for...
Sorry,

My iPhone 5s is stolen and I want to restore iPhone photos from iCloud. I have use iCloud to backup the iPhone photos. Is there any way to restore my photos from iCloud to mac?
The backup of your iPod Touch would include your camera roll photos. Restoring the backup to another iPod Touch or iPhone would recover them. Photos will not be restored by restoring the backup to an iPad.
Note: Apple deletes iCloud backups after 180 days of inactivity so be sure to do this before then. -
I have an iphone 3gs. I have 7 separate email accounts on the phone. Everytime I update the phone, it reloads all emails received as new unread emails. I can click each one, move them to trash and then delete all. However, I am wondering whether there is any way to either (a) delete all from the inbox or (b) stop them from reloading?
ThanksHello Kizzyk,
I would start with taking a look at the settings to make sure that you are able to send and receive messages. If everything looks good then the next step would be to remove the accounts and add them back in. Take a look at the article below for more information and details on how to troubleshoot your issue further.

i have an iphone and an ipad (which are connected by the same apple id) i broke the phone and sold it but i didnt get to factory reset it because it was broken, is there any way for me to wipe my iphone from my ipad?
Try this:
Open the "Find my iPhone" app on your iPad, fill in your AppleID and password at the start up screen, and you should see a list of all your devices and their current location, if connected to a Wi-Fi or mobile data network. Devices not connected will be shown as "offline". But you can still trap on the icon and hit "erase iPhone" in the right hand window.
If your iPhone is not listed, you did not activate this feature during the setup of the phone and it can't be erased remotely.
If the phone is listed, even as offline, tap on "erase" to send the erase command. The next time your device will be connected to any kind of network, the content will be erased. -
I formerly had an iPhone 3 with my iTunes account/music on it. I've recently purchased an iPhone 5s. I no longer have the iPhone 3. Is there any way to retrieve music from my account and put on my iPhone 5s?
Yes. Sign in to the iTunes Store with the same Apple ID you used to buy the music in settings on the phone.
Then tap on "purchased" in the iTunes app on the phone and download the music to your new iPhone. -
Is there any way for my ipad to piggyback the internet from my iphone without having to purchase a "plan" from ATT&T....The guy at the store said that I had to purchase a new plan with "so much" GB per month and loose my unlimited amount that I am grandfathered into with my current plan... any thoughts?
Unfortuneatly, you would have to give up your unlimited plan. In the US you would have to get the 2GB plan for $25 and add the teathering plan for $20 more. The teathering plan would give you another 2GB of data for a total 4GB.

my iphone is stolen .. is there any way to know the numbe of the person going to use in the future .. I have the serial no. and every thing .. and it is registered under my name and my information with iTunes ??
If you had find my iphone activated on the iphone itself before it was stolen, then you may be able to track it.
Otherwise, there is nothing you can do.
Sorry.
Report it to the police and your wireless carrier and change your password. -
My iphone was recently stolen. Is there any way to access my purchases in itunes (without having transferred them to a computer)? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Hm, good suggestion, but I've actually already done this (and I've had a friend go through the steps with me). There is just NOTHING that is showing up under any of the categories in the cloud for downloading. The thing is, I'm just not sure if I enabled cloud-sharing or not on my iphone (although I know I've backed up my data through cloud on my iphone at some point).
Any other suggestions? -
Hi am having problems with iTunes,I have all my music on my 4s but I bought the iPhone 5 today.is there any way that I can transfer music over to my new phone without using the library?as it doesn't seem to be on my PC anymore.i reset my pc and save my iTunes to a hard drive but can't access it.Need help please
" When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
Correct.
" How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer? "
Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod. -
I recently gave my old iPhone to my nephew, I did not clear out my old phone before I gave it to him, when he transferred to his account, he had my iCloud info on the phone, and it updated the contacts on my new iPhone 5 to his contacts. Is there any way for me to get my contacts back?
This is caused by using the same iCloud account on both phones. When you do this any data you sync with the shared iCloud account such as contacts is merged and will appear on all devices connected to the account. To fix this you both need to have separate iCloud accounts (you can continue to share the same Apple ID for purchasing from the iTunes and app stores).
Decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account. On the one that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (i.e., deleting your nephew's data from your account, and vice versa).
As for recovering your lost contacts, if they aren't on icloud.com when you check from your computer, you will have to recover them from a backup source. You could try restoring to your last backup but this doesn't always work for contacts. (Chances are you nephew deleted your contacts from his phone, not realizing it would also delete them from yours.) -
if SIRI application works on iphone 4? if there is any way for ask using iphone 4 can have this application? just let ask know if will work or not, because if not so we will not think about it. please somebody answer my question. my iphone 4 are already update for iOS 5. I'm searching in the internet forum some are saying that it's only work if your iphone are jelbreak, and the problem is i don't want my iphone to be jelbreak. thanks for reading my question. and please send the question on my email many thanks....
<Email Edited by Host>What else is there? There's Siri, A5 chip, 8MP camera, intelligent switching between antennas. Those are the only new things in the 4S. Like I said, if Siri was on the 4, fewer would buy the 4S. Second, the 4 is discontinued to make room for the 4S, so there will be no updates exclusively for the 4. Third, I never trust any reports on the Internet unless it comes directly from the company (in this case, Apple).

HT4946 i have forget my iphone backup password in itune, any way to reset it ?
i have forget my iphone backup password in itune, any way to reset it ?
Well, there ya go. The requirement to encrypt your backups has been done by a profile installed on your phone when you setup the Exchange account. The only way around this is to delete the account & profile from your phone.
Try your Exchange password or Domain password. -
My kid`s been using my apple ID/account for years, but now that he`s older it`s time he got his own. Is there any way to either make a twin account so he doesn`t lose all his purchases from iTunes/AppStore or does he have to start from scratch? They payment can still be from my card/account, that`s not the problem, but facetime, imessage etc. is a available on both mine and his apple products (I know you can check what email/phone number we can be reached at, but it`s just a click and he see my messages and I his). It`s the privacy problem that is the most important.

He needs to have his own account, the sooner the better.
As for content, non-protected songs can simply be copied to his own new library, and he can use them. As for protected content and apps, anything he still wants will have to be replaced. -
