    Unless you had enabled Find My iPhone on it before it was lost then there isn't any way to locate it (it can only be turned on directly on the phone, it can't be done remotely). If you did enable it then you could try locating it either via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPhone disabled on it.
    If you think that it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

  • How can I erase someone else's apple ID from y iphone

                      how can I erase someone elses apple id and password from my iphone?

    Hi achury,
    The easiest way to get a previous user's data cleared off of your phone is to go to Settings>General>Reset and click on Reset all Settings. Here is a link that will explain what that will do:

  • How can I remove someone else's Apple ID from a grayed-out box, so I can log in and download an Update in the App Store? I have a Macbook Pro.

    I am able to add apps, use my apple id via iTunes but when I have to update the basic software apps that came with the laptop from my job, it won't allow me to update. It shows another apple id login in gray. I am unable to put mine in. I deleted the user under user accounts already, restarted my laptop and it is still there. Please help! The person no longer works there and I have no way to contact them.

    When you update apps you have to be singed into the ID that purchased the apps.
    Delete the apps and purchase them with your account if you want to update them.

  • How can I stop someone from using my mail id to send junk mail?

    It does not happend all that often, but occasionaly I get a message that someone (who I don't know and is not in my address book) received an email from me that I did not send. Is there a way to stop that or protect my from that happening?

    There may not be too much that you can do since it's most likely not originating from your email account. There are a slew of Windows viruses and worms that scan the infected computer for email addresses and then send out emails with spoofed From: addresses that it finds.
    Just one example of a virus generated email taken from Symantec's website
    English:
    From: Spoofed
    Subject: I've_got your EMail on my_account!
    Message:
    Hello,
    First, Very Sorry for my bad English.
    Someone is sending your private e-mails on my address.
    It's probably an e-mail provider error!
    ]-f
    At time, I've got over 10 mails on my account, but the recipient are you.
    I have copied all the mail text in the windows text-editor for you & zipped then.
    Make sure, that this mails don't come in my mail-box again.
    bye

    Have you ever responded? The email that you're receiving may even be from a similiar virus.

  • How can I stop someone from receiving iMessages on their old disconnected iPhone, w'hich is still active in iMessage, when the number now belongs to someone else with a non apple device!?!

    To further clarify my dilemma ....
    A friend of mine just got a new phone number on her LG cell phone.
    When I try to text her, my messages are going to someone else's iPhone.
    The iPhone has been deactivated off the VZ cell network, but they are still using it on WIFI.
    They used to have this number on their iPhone, and it's still active in iMessage.
    So, when I try to send a text message to my friend on her LG, from my iPhone,
    they instead go to this total stranger, cuz they still have that number active in their iMessage account.
    This is a serious issue!!
    The only suggestion I get from apple support is to have my friend get a new number, or for me to turn off iMessage when I want to text her.
    Not really the optimum solution.
    Something really should be done to prevent this from happening!
    Strangers are effectively intercepting text messages!
    Help!?!

    Tell her to contact her carrier and get a new phone number.

  • Some telephone numbers only stay visible for a second or two, refreshing the screen brings them back but again for a second ie too short to note down. How can I stop this (use Vista Basic on laptop)?

    When searching for numbers on a business website quite often, though not always, the telephone number only appears very briefly. Copying the web address on to Internet Explorer the number stays visible. Only happens on telephone numbers not for any other info eg email address.
    Have no idea why this happens as it appears to be random though it must relate to how a website is viewed. Wouldn't where to start to fix this!

    To Apple all sales are final. The fact that your child has the password to make a purchase implies consent.
    Apple sometimes gives one-time refunds. Is this a large enough purchase to use your possible one-time refund?
    When the receipt arrives in your email for this purchase use the Report link to start a conversation with iTunes Support about a refund.

  • How can I stop receiving the support discussions etc.?

    Hello Gwendolyn,
    Frank's reply will sure solve your immediate problem but to answer your basic question ... you cannot remove yourself from the community (short of the hosts taking extreme action).  Indeed, you should stay with us.  Your current problem arose because you didn't have the benefit of Frank's advice.   Now you have, you can control your reply count.

  • How can I stop using my primary Apple ID (Gmail) but leave my secondary Apple ID (icloud) as primary ond only ONE?

    Good afternoon friends.
    Please help me and tell how can I stop using my primary Apple ID (Gmail) but leave my secondary Apple ID (icloud) as primary ond only ONE?
    I started using Apple ID in 2011 when iCloud was not exist and was forced to use non-apple e-mail adress as primary ID.
    So I used GMail mailbox.
    When iCloud was started I created my account but unfortunatelly can't remove this Gmail address from my Apple ID and replace it with icloud mail address.
    I was VERY dissapointed because I don't want to use "outside" mailbox to get letters from Apple and ny ID.
    In fact I see the Apple old users and fans discrimination.
    When creating new user accounts are free to create a box on the iCloud mail and use it as a primary ID, and the only ONE.
    At the same time the old user is obliged to keep third-party mail box like Gmail etc. as the primary and can not get such an opportunity, as a new user
    This is extremely inconvenient and a VERY strange logical.
    For example, now I want to stop using this mailbox on Gmail but I can not do that because in this case I lose access to my ID, or run the risk that someone in the future will create a box with the same name on Gmail (when name will be free and available) and will automatically get access to my accounts on Apple and to my Apple ID.
    Now, to avoid this, your team, I offer the only way out: ID, create anew.
    Of course it's possible, but then:
    - I lose all my purchases for 3 years and will be forced to make them again and pay money for the second time for my purchases
    - Lose access to the familiar iCloud e-mail address who now serves as secondary ID because this e-mail address is almost no longer available and will never be released in future.
    And now answer me for ONLY TWO questions:
    - WHERE IS LOGIC?
    - WHAT ABOUT TO BE FRIENDLY FOR YOUR USERS AND FANS?
    Thank you!
    Hopefully for your GOOD answers.

    You cannot make your @icloud.com address the login address for the ID. However you can change your ID, currently a Gmail one, to any other functioning non-Apple email address. The Gmail address would then no longer access your account, and so even if someone were to obtain posession of it (is that even possible) it wouldn't allow them to get into your account.
    If you want to change your ID to another email address please follow the procedure outlined below, particularly noting the first step.
    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Create a new email address, for example  at Yahoo or Gmail, or anywhere convenient (or you can use an existing address as long as it has never been associated with an Apple ID).
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new address and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.

  • Is it possible for your iphone to be hacked so that someone can text message people in your contacts (and send pictures)? If so can you trace the hack and how can you stop it?

    Is it possible for your iphone to be hacked?so that someone can text message people in your contacts (and send pictures)? If so can you trace the hack and how can you stop it?

    As has been said, the iPhone itself can't be hacked this way, as far as anyone currently knows.
    Your Apple ID is another story. Any kind of online accounts can be hacked, and Apple IDs are no exception. If someone hacks your Apple ID, they could see all the data in the associated iCloud account, such as contacts, and could send those contacts texts that would appear to come from you. If that were to happen, you should see an alert on your other devices that your Apple ID is being used with Messages on a new device.
    If you have not seen that alert, it's unlikely that this problem is occurring due to such a hack. In that case, it would be more likely that either someone has gotten their hands on your phone, or some other Apple device registered to your Apple ID, and has used it to send that message. Or that the person claiming you sent a picture is lying for some reason.
    If you believe your Apple ID may have been hacked, you should change your password immediately (at appleid.apple.com). You should also seriously consider enabling two-factor authentication on your Apple ID.

    how can i stop an error message that comes up when i am using word? the error message is "word is unable to save the Autorecover file in the location specified. Make sure that you have specified a valid location for Autoreover files in Preferences,…"

    It sounds like if you open Preferences in Word there will be a place where you can specify where to store autorecover files. Right now it sounds like it's pointing to somewhere that doesn't exist.
