HT4137 Using Find my iphone with a 6th device

I originally setup my child's iPhone using my AppleID (so as to help her keep her programs insync) However, unable to use Find my iPhone because I already have 5 devices registered. Should I start separate apple ID account or is there a another way to add a 6th device using Find my iPhone?

Is this an iPhone question?

  • Why do i need ios8 to use find my iphone with 5c

    Yes. If the device doesn't have a connection to the Internet, then there is no way for it to report its position.

    Can I use find my iPhone with out an iCloud account?

    Ok! So there's no way around it then? My friend has an iPhone 4 that she got used and the 3 available account have been used up. I understand how that works but was wondering if there was a way around that so she could still use the find my iPhone app to locate the phone if needed. Thxs

  • Can I use Find My iPhone with my Apple Watch?

    Can I use Find My iPhone with my Apple Watch? Is there an app for it on Apple Watch? Can I add my Apple Watch to my Find My iPhone Account?

    No. No. And No.
    You can 'ping' your phone and have it play a sound (even if it's muted) from the watch, but it must be in range... That's intended to help you locate it if it's nearby but you forgot where you put it, or it slipped behind a couch cushion or something.

  • Can you use find my iPhone with iPad and iPhone and the same icloud account for both?

    I have an iPhone and iPad. I use find my iPhone for both. If I use the same icloud account for both, how do I separate them on the map, or if I lose one and want to remote wipe the lost one but not the one in my possession?

    It will list each device separately, I even have two macs along with my ipad listed

  • Using Find My iPhone with Snow Leopard and iPhone 4S

    I just upgraded my family's three iPhones from 3GS to 4S. I have a family MobileMe account and would like to continue to use Find My iPhone. I cannot upgrade my OSX on my Macbook Pro past Snow Leopard without rendering a professional app that I use for my business unusable. Is there a way to make this work with the new phones without upgrading to Lion / enabling iCloud? That is unfortunately not an option for me until the pro software app is made Lion compatible. Thanks.

    I suppose you could set up a dual-boot environment and keep Snow Leopard in a small partition to run your business software.  Clone your Snow Leopard partition into a second partition (with SuperDuper or similar) and upgrade this partion to Lion.  Then remove unnecessary applications from the Snow Leopard partition and resize it to save space. 
    This arrangement would allow you to run Lion as you primary OS with most of your applications and maintain a boot option to Snow Leopard to run your business software until its updated.  See http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20081187-263/how-to-keep-snow-leopard-when- upgrading-to-lion/.

  • HT204053 Can I use find my iPhone with the iCloud if I didn't  have it set up before I lost/ stolen iPhone

    My iPhone 4S was lost / stolen I don't think  I had iCloud on it for pictures on iCloud that were on my phone
    Number 2. Would I be able to use find my iPhone if I didn't activate the app before it was lost . Some one told me today they signed on and they were able to find their iPhone

    If the "Find My iPhone" was enabled in your iCloud Settings on your phone - it does not matter if you had the "App" on there or not. It will report, if it has not been deleted / restored / etc.
    Have you tried logging into http://www.icloud.com and see if your device is listed? If it is, then place your phone into "Lost Mode" and put a phone number where you can be reached.

  • How do I use find my iPhone with a iPod Touch 3g?

    l I tried using it on  a friends iPod Touch, because I lost mine. I tried regestring but It didn't work, to my dismay I learned that MobileMe was closed to new subscribers. I tried doing it on iCloud, but iCloud is only for iOS 5. So how do I register findmyiPhone with a iPod Touch 3g?
    Or did Apple Screw me over on this one? (Sorry, you'd be ****** to if someone stole an iPod you left on a table when you were going to the bathroom.)

    Sorry, but Apple didn't screw you. You screwed yourself. See, there's no point putting a lock on your door after the burglars have left.

  • TS3376 can i use find my iphone on my laptop?

    can i use the find my iphone app on my laptop ? for instance if i lose my phone i can go on to my laptop and find it ?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    The "Find my iPhone" app isn't available for Macs and PCs. However, there's another method to use Find my iPhone to track your devices. Open http://www.icloud.com, log in with your Apple ID, and choose "Find my iPhone"

  • Cant use find my iPhone on my ipod touch

    Just upgraded my ipod touch to iOS 5.  Tried using 'find my iPhone' both on the device's app and on icloud.com.  Both say it is either offline or 'no location'
    location services are on, find my iPod is on, signed into iColud, not sure what else to do???

    - On the devices go to the Mapps app.  Does you correct location show?
    - Try resetting your dvices.  That is what I had to d after updating to iOS 5.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • I activated my ipad, used iCloud & Find my iphone with Apple ID named: A@.... But now I've changed address of Apple ID from A@... to the new one: B@... Which Apple ID will be asked to re-activate 7.0.4 ipad - A or B?

    Hello everybody!
    I'm using ipad mini and the iOS is 7.0.4. I used an Apple ID (called: A), and I activated my ipad, used iCloud & Find my iphone with this A account. But now I've changed address of Apple ID from A@.... to the new one: B@.... (just changed email address of Apple ID, not create a new ID), and then I signed out iCloud, old Apple ID, etc... on my ipad and signed in with new id B@.... Everythings seem OK, I can sign in/out iCould, turn on/turn off Find my iphone as well with the new one (B@...)
    But I still have a question (and still confusing with it): What will happend when I restored my ipad? I mean my iOS is 7, so which Apple ID will be asked to re-activate my ipad after I restore it, old id A@.... (this one cannot be used now) or the new one B@...., please?
    Thank you very much for your helpful informations!

    If you've succesfully changed the ID for iCloud and Find my phone, it will be your new ID you use if you need to restore it.
