hello, i have lost my ipod (5th generation) and i have tried to use ' find my iphone' but it says my ipod is offline so i think its dead....what should i do?
No app is required.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have to iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order

I've lost my ipod. I tried to use find my iPhone and it says my ipod is offline what should I do?
What should I do?
Leave your contact info via Find My iPhone. The message will display next time it's connected to the internet, and when it does, you will receive an email telling you that the message is displayed and your iPod is located somewhere.
Chances are, you may never hear from it. Hope you have it running iOS 7.1 (which equips the device with Activation Lock, a feature that allow no one other than you access to your device) since for those running iOS 6 and below the device can be wiped and sold hands down. (It's worth mentioning though, iOS 7.0.x has a bug that allow some "clever" thieves to wipe your device despite the Activation Lock.)
Don't beat yourself up. You don't have to FaceTime it -- If a call could come through, so would a Find My iPhone message. (And you should receive an email message.) Just wait for a few days for any email message and if there is none, I'm sorry. -

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.

Can I use Find My iphone service with multiple iphones under one account? I have 4 iphones in my family and I want to monitor all phones by logging into one account!
You can create and use different iCloud accounts on the same computer, whether they are single or multiple user.
There is a limit of 3 accounts you can create from a device but I thought this was only iOS devices - maybe not.
iCloud accounts can only be created using a valid email address, so I guess I'd start there to retrace what accounts you have.
My Apple ID and iForgot.com may be useful sites for you. -

how can i use 'find my iPhone' if it isn't connected to the internet or is currently out of battery?
You can't. It has to be on and able to connect to a network or it can't transmit its location.

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. -
how can someone use a stolen iphone? does erasing the phone (which I feel like I should do) make it easier for the thief to use the iphone? If I don't erase it, it doesn't seem like anyone should be able to use the phone because of my password. Also, is it possible to retrieve anything that has been sent to the phone (i.e. text messages) since it was stolen through icloud? The "find my iphone" app says the device is offline but it rings when I call my number -- any idea how that would be the case? Thanks!!
You have a password, so good move on your part. Whether you erase it or the thief does, they still get to use the iPhone as theirs. Which is more important (pick one), protecting your data or punishing the thief?
Ringing occurs at the carrier. Chances are you're going to voicemail after only two or three rings. If you have an iCloud backup also a good move. Re-read my question in the first paragraph. -
I forgot my password for my iphone. I tried clearing it on the computer, it wouldn't do it because I need to turn Find my Iphone off. Not an option, my phone is locked! Then I tried to remote sweep it from find my iphone online. But my phone is offline, and it won't go online because my phone is disabled! Please help me fix this!
