You have a SIM in what device? Whether or not YOU are connected has no significance re whether the lost iPhone is connected.
If it is offline there is nothing you can do to trace it. Report the loss to your carrier, to the police, and to your insurance company. Change any passwords which might be compromised, and get another phone.

I erased an iphone on find my iphone , so i wanted to know what happened and I erased my without a sim card and now I says I cant go on it until i put in a sim card. Did i ruin the phone please help thanks.
You did not ruin the phone, you will need a sim card to activate the phone and then connect the phone to itunes and do a restore from back up.

I have Windows Vista and my iTunes is v10.5, I have and iPhone 3GS and an iPhone 4. Everytime i try to update my phone to iOS5 it stops on Backing up and freezes. What can i do? Do i need t upgrade my phones on a Mac? Please help it would be greatly appreciated.
Your expectations are not based in reality.
Your G4 will not run iCloud. There will be no upgrade from Mobile Me to iCloud for you with that machine unless you do it manually, and only mail will work without further expenditure. -

How do I transfer all photos and music from my old iphone 3gs to new iphone 4s? I have a new laptop because the old one broke and so do not have non camera roll photos or music stored anywhere apart from the iphone 3gs and cannot update io5 on the iphone 3gs without erasibng everything. i need help!!!
Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

Will everything be erased from my iPhone if I 'erased iPhone from find my iPhone'?
My iPhone recently stopped wroking because the lock button didnt work anymore, but I didn't find out until I took it to get fixed. I called in to my provider to get a new one (but they weren't able to send me a new one, so I still have the same one) and they told me to go to icloud.com and erase iPhone from find my iPhone. I got it all fixed but I'm worried that once I connect my phone to my iTune library it's going to erase everything on my phone. Is there anyway I can cancel the request to erase? It says

Yes..
The FindMyiPhone app is for finding your iPhone (or someone else's iPhone). If your iPhone is in your hands, you really don't need the app to find it. -
Restored iPhone using find my iPhone restore
Hello,
I recently restored my iPhone using find my iPhone restore and when I did this an apple loading screen came on and then the reboot logo that spins around replaced that. That logo has been spinning for a good three hours and when I try going into recovery mode it repeats the process by instantly turning back on with the rebooter.
Please help,

How do i restore a iphone 3gs to a iphone 3g
i had to restore iphone 3g to a iphone 3gs whilst the iphone 3g was being repaired. It now won't let me choose the iphone 3gs backup to restore to the 3g.
Is there a way around this?Yes, of course I know it's not "supported" by Apple. They just screwed up my phone with their touted, lost me money in the stock market with Tim's apology for maps, and in their aloofness, won't help restore my phone's previous operation.
Another site gives directions for downgrading, but the downgrade doesn't work
http://www.maclife.com/article/howtos/how_downgrade_back_ios_5?
A message comes up in iTunes saying "The iPhone "xxx" could not be restored. This device isn't eligible for the requested build."
Does this mean that the build is wrong for my phone, i.e. the site gave the wrong "build" selection, or that Apple is blocking downgrades? Maybe someone will figure this out.
Yes, I know the phone is old, but I replaced the battery and it was working just fine with long battery life before this fiasco!
I have to say this is the first time I'm really unhappy with Apple! -
