I got my iphone 5 stolen
I got my stolen iphone 5 and the thief has it off immediately. Iphone search not possible. I have another chance to locate it? About Aplle and serial number? Police display I give up now.
In the country I live in we give the IMEI number to the police and they have all carriers block the device from ever being used as a phone on any network again

What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

Hello, i have a question on my iphone 4s. I went to a party a few days ago and it had gotten stolen. The next day my friend said that he had found it and it was jaibroken? The phone was on 1 % when i had recieved it. It then died and i plugged it in to the charger. When i plugged it in the apple logo appeared as if it was starting but, it wasnt. The apple logo appeared for about ten seconds and then the screen went black. After that, the connect to itunes screen popped up and will not go away. So now when i take it off of the charger the screen just stays black and wont turn on? I tried connecting it to itunes and restoring it. But it wont even show my phone any more on the side of itunes. I tried restoring it and an error had occured (2001). I have looked up on youtube how to fix this problem and non of them have helped or worked. Its my only phone and i cant even text my girlfriend which bothers me terribly!! Please help me ASAP!!

HT1212 i got my iphone stolen, and i got it back there was a password and i cant restore it
the title says it all
Apple is not law enforcement and does not block or deactivate devices.
Even if they did, it would require contacting Apple instead of posting to these user to user technical support forums. -
do all apps work properly even if its an older model?
Not neccessarily.
Any app that requires ios 4.3 or later will not work. -
I got my iphone 4 stolen.. HELP.
I recently got my iphone stolen, i had left it in a stall in a movie theater and came back about 20 minutes later to find it gone, we got it tracked on my friends phone and had the police search for it in where it said it was, he couldn't find it because it said it was located in the woods behind houses in a neighborhood.. basically, we couldn't find it and it still says it is there..
if we don't find it by the weekend i'm probably going to need a new phone.. with 2 iphone's we couldn't get both insurance. what happens if i don't have insurance and i need to by a new iphone?If you're in the US, you can find pricing here:
http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_iphone/family/iphone/iphone4s
Select the model you want and then the "get iPhone unlocked and contract free" link. In other countries, similarly consult the Apple Store, if there are Apple Stores in your country, or an authorized iPhone reseller.

I unfortunately just got my IPhone 4s stolen.I thought I had the find my iPhone enabled but I didn't because I cannot locate the phone when I sign in ICloud.I have a password on the phone but i'm not sure if I turned on the option where the phone resets if you incorrectly put the password more than ten time. I immediately called my phone company (Verizon) and reported the phone stolen.So I know whoever took the phone cannot place calls or use the phone. But can they still access my data on the phone if they manage to unlock the phone? If so how can I erase all data on the phone so the thief can't access my personal information? is there any other way other than Find my IPhone to wipe off the data on the phone? I really don't want my personal information such as pictures, text messages, notes and social networks profile available to a stranger!!? Help please!!!
Hello thewrongway,
I'm sorry to hear about your phone! I understand the need for an active device. You are able to activate an old device and process an insurance claim for your iPhone 4s within 60days from the incident date. Keep in mind if the old phone is not a smartphone and you currently have unlimited data that feature will fall off. If you have a tier data plan no changes will be made. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Thank you.

My brother got his iphone 4s stolen a week or two ago, he didnt have the iphone finder installed at the time. The phone company just gave him a new phone progammed with the same number is there any way of tracking his old phone? If this is relevant whenever i call him and hes on the phone the phone connects to someone else answering machine.
IF he set up find my ip[hone on the ihone itself BEFORE it was stolen ( there is no app, it is a setting) AND it is on AND it has jot been restored, then you may be able to track it using icloud/find my iphone.
Otherwise, there is no way to track it. -

I recently got my iPhone 5c stolen. How can I track it?
The only way to find a lost iOS device is to use the Find my iPhone app or www.icloud.com. For this to work, you have to enable this feature on the lost device prior to loss. If you didn't do this, there is no way to find it. Neither Apple nor your carrier will find it for you.
Setup Find my iPhone:

I got my Ipad stolen one month ago and bought a new. I locked the stolen one but now everytime someone calls me and my new ipad is offline the calls or messages will go to the stolen one. It is kind of creepy to know that my thiefs can read everything and send messages on my behalf to my contacts.....I have done the find my iphone application and it says that the ipad has not been used however I have family tell me that people that are not me answer the calls... I have also seen messages in my new ipad that I did not write.
That message is usually due to a bad cable.
