I accidentally erased my phone from Find my Iphone App and I have a sim lock on my phone - now it wont let me restore. any ideas?
When I try to connect to itunes, It states ''The sim card of this phone is PIN locked - please enter the PIN code of your SIM card and connect again to iTunes" however I don't have the option to enter the Pin code on my phone as on my phone screen it states "your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporaily unavailable"
PLEASE HELP AND THANK YOU
With a sim lock,
you'll have to contact your carrier for the PUK code, as described here:

Accidentally erase my iMac from Find my iPhone App
I accidentally erase my iMac from Find my iPhone App.,
Is it able to recover by target disk mode?
What is erase method of this function? Normal erase or Secure erase?I solved the problem by follow Matt's suggestion.
I can (almost) recovered all my files with deep scan option in the program Data Rescue.
But it is restructured form, jpeg pictures are moved in one folders then you have to manually arrange them again.
Anyway, better than nothing
In conclusion, if you accidentally erase your iMac with Find my iPhone app.
1. iMac harddisk will be format, not securely, you can recover them.
2. You need 2 computers, and one thunderbolt cable. (Firewire in the older model)
3. Using Target Disk Mode (press T while booting, after the signal) at the source computer.
4. Data Rescue (or other recovery software) need to installed in another computer
5. Use "Deep Scan" method, it will takes like 7 hrs to scan 1TB harddisk
6. The files that recovered will be unstructured, (the one that structured is not working)
7. You might need the larger capacity harddisk than the one you recovering. (in this case 1.5TB or 2TB)
8. It will takes another 4-6 hours in recovering files. -
I was looking at the "Find my iPhone" app and I have a doubt regarding how it works for the macbook. In order to detect the location, the macbook should remain signed into iCloud. What if the person who has stolen my macbook logs out of iCloud.
It should work fine for iPhone/iPad because we can enable "Restrictions" to prevent the user from signing out of iCloud. Do we have simialr settings for the macbook?
Thanks,If it's not on the device list, it indicates that someone has gone to Find My iPhone on icloud.com and manually deleted it from the device list (as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0eeddd), and it has not gone back online since (which would cause it to reappear on the device list; Find My iPhone has been turned of in settings on the device; the iClolud account has been deleted from the device; or the entire devices has been erased and restored.
Unfortunately, there's no other way to track the phone other than through Find My iPhone. You could call your carrier and see if they would blackliste it so at least the theif couldn't use it. -

I think I still have like 4.2.2 features, but I know I downloaded it to my phone I'm at work but now I don't know how to make the app work from my work computer. Is the iCloud account like the apple or iTunes account?
iCloud is Apple's new online service, replacing mobileme - http://www.apple.com/icloud/. The web account page is https://www.icloud.com/
Find my iPhone is a feature of iCloud - http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/find-my.html
And again, the downloadable app has nothing to do with making your iPhone discoverable by find my iphone. The app is used by a device to find another device which has had the trackable feature enabled in its iCloud account settings. Simply having the app on a device does NOT make that device trackable. In order to be able to find a device, you need to have an iCloud account on that device, and you need to enable the find-my-iPhone setting under that account - nothing to do with the app at all. -

i lost my phone and it is switched off now...how can i find my phone with find my iphone app active thru icloud?? pls help me.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely. -
My iphone was stolen, I used find my iphone app, and found that it was offline, however when tried locking mode option, I pressed remove device by mistake. Is there any way I can restore the iphone to my icloud/ apple Id again? No manual backup on laptop
The phone will automatically re-appear when it connects to the Internet. However, don't get your hopes up, as thieves know this & will make sure your phone never re-connects so you can locate it.

used "find my iphone app" and now that I have found my iphone, no one can hear me talk? how do I let Apple know I have found my Iphone so I can use my Iphone?
so frustrated.Well its defintiely nothing that Apple can activate to fix this. They would be able to troubleshoot with you though. This may be able to be resolved if its something software related.

i had the "find my iphone" app and deleted it and then my ipod was stolen. can my ipod still be located ?
Apple will not track it for you unless with Find my iPod. Again, whether you have the app or not doesn't matter, I believe you still had the service enabled. It doesn't hurt to try. http://icloud.com, click Find my iPhone after you sign in.

I have deleted contacts from my old iPhone 4 and they have also been deleted from my new iPhone 6, can they be restored?
How were you syncing contacts? If you still had the iPhone 4 connected and the 6 at the same time, then you may have made a fatal mistake. I'm guessing that you were using a cloud service for your contacts?
