HT5824 I lost my iPhone and set it to erase. I just found it and wanted to know how to cancel the erase command

I lost my phone and set it to erase. Now I have found it. How do i cancel the erase function?

Here’s my question. My laptop is broken and I had a crack in my iPhone screen. Prior to sending it in to repair I backed up using iCloud and before restoring my phone to factory settings decided to do the software update. Half way through the update it asked me to connect to iTunes. So here’s were it gets complicated…
My charger is also broken, so in my panic at the stranger fixing my phone seeing my personal stuff I used the erase everything on the find my iPhone app, thinking iCloud had my back. It was still asking to be connected to iTunes so my friend have me their laptop nod charger (automatic sync not turned on) I plugged it in, the command went away and I sent my phone to be repaired.
It came back all shiny and new, but iCloud back up disppeared along with four years of photos, videos, etc etc. I contacted apple who had engineers go through their servers to find nothing from my iPhone backed up. I searched my friends laptop for music I have bought and even plugged the phone into their laptop but comes up with their phones name and their last back up. I have restored from iCloud and set up as a new phone.
I am worried my friend will have my information from my iPhone. Is it possible and if not has it just been erased forever?
sorry not really an answer but similar sort of question

    No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
    But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
    Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
    By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
    That would depend on what you are trying to do.

    This is a user to user support forum.  We are all iphone users just like you.
    You are not addressing Apple here at all.
    This is an odd way to ask your fellow iphone users for help. Berating oterh users will not help you.
    "it's too fragile"
    No it is not.  i have never damaged one, nor has anyone I know.
    " U loose data when Ur phone is locked"
    No you don't.  Why do you think this?
    "and there is no customer support!!!  "
    Wrong yet again.  Apple has an 800 number and they have many retail stores and they have support articles that you can access using the search bar. Or you can contact them throgh express lane online
    "but I will go back with Blackberry "
    Please do.
    Good ridance

  • I preordered the new one direction album and I ment to preorder the one with 18 songs and it preordered both of the albums and I don't know how to cancel the one can someone help me?

    I preordered a album then preordered the Same one and I don't know how to cancel the one I preordered that I didn't mean too and it's charging me for both and I don't have a lot of money on my iTunes

    Go to the iTunes Store. Click on your Apple ID and enter your password. Scroll down towards the end of the page, you should see a line item that says Pre-Order. You can cancel the pre-order there.

  • I am new to this program and want to know how to blur the edges of a pic

    i am new to the program and want to know how to blur the edges of a pic?

    Another way...
    Use the Rectangular Marquee tool to draw out the edge to be blurred. Feather the selection. Here I feathered 50 px (note that feathering makes the borders of the selection appear rounded).
    Invert the selection so that the edge is now selected, and apply a Gaussian Blur:
    The reason for feathering is to soften the edge of the blur. The amount of feathering and amount of the Gaussian Blur is simply trial-and-error.

  • I wanted to know how to view the gifts I've sent to people and (if possible) know if they received and downloaded them. Is there any way to do that, other than asking the person?

    I wanted to know how to view the gifts I've sent to people and (if possible) know if they received and downloaded them. Is there any way to do that, other than asking the person? Obviously I want the gift to be a surprise (for my best friend specifically) so asking them if they received it would ruin that.

    Have you tried resetting your iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    You can turn off iTunes Match by pulling down the Store menu and selecting "turn off itunes match." You'll need to contact iTunes Store support for a refund.

    Apple has no "unlimited music" subscription plan avaiilable.

    Copy all the content on your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes. Then go ahead and sync the iPod with your new library.
    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

  • HT2731 my oldest daughter recently bought a new ipod touch and gave her old one to her brother.  I need to know how to unlink the old ipod from her account without losing all the music and games on it.  He would like to have his own account.

    My oldest daughter recently bought a new ipod touch and gave her old one to her brother.  How do I unlink his ipod from her account and set up his own without losing the music and apps already on it?

    Connect it to his iTunes library and set it up as a new device.  You should be prompted to Erase and Sync the iPod if his iTunes library is separate from hers.
    Or head to Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase all Content and Settings.

  • All my songs got unchecked and i want to know how to checkmark the ones i had previously.

    My dad was moving music around in my itunes and somehow all my songs got unchecked. I had about 1000/4000 songs checkmarked to sync on my phone and they are currently on my phone right now. But i am scared to sync my phone since all the songs i had checked out of the 4000 are unchecked now, is there a way to restore that so i get the exact 1000 songs i had checkmarked before? or do i have to do it all manually, because i dont want all 4000 songs on my phone.

    No.
    I recommend you create  a new playlst and sync only that playlist instead of using checkmarks.
    Then add/delete from the playlist and sync.

  • I want to know how to enable the links that are sent in an email, with each upgrade of Firefox it gets harder and harder to do so. What is the trick to this?

    With each upgrade of Firefox, I have a harder and harder time, getting to the links provided in my emails. Some times I am able to trick the link into working, if I continue to to try every link in the email, but most of the time, I just have to give up. I know that I need to change something, maybe in the settings, but I don't know what.
    Please help me. I am considering just going back to Internet Explorer.

    This did not solve my problem. I can sometimes click on a link (word) provided in an email, that leads to a site, but it does not list the website address!! It works sometimes, providing me with a chance to enable links for this address or enable link (I think basically for just that one time).
