I hav lost my iphone.. i hav my pictures n sim n contacts in it.. how shall i lock it to prevent from any misuse :(

need help

The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords, especially your Apple ID/iCloud password NOW!
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, and running iOS 7.0, then phone cannot be activated or the passcode removed without knowing your Apple iD/Password. It will be nothing but a useless paperweight.
If not running iOS 7.0, the phone can be forced into recovery mode & restored.

From the backup you maintain of your computer data. Don't backup your computer? Then your data is gone. You can always sync your phone to create a current backup.

If you are saying that after signing into iCloud it is telling you device is not found, it could be for any number of reasons. If the battery is dead, if the SIM has been removed, or if someone else has the phone and they have restored it, it will not be shown. Also, if you located it once and then sent a remote wipe, it disables the abililty to locate the phone with Find My iPhone.

Go to www.apple.com for a start. See, also, Mac Basics.

If you don't have an icloud account, then icloud is not the thing that's popping up a window.
If you are being asked to enter a password when accessing itunes, then the problem may be that you have purchased items (apps, songs, etc) on the device that were purchased using a different itunes account than the one you currently have defined on your device.
Purchased items are forever associated with the itunes account (the apple ID) that was used to make the purchase. If you change the ID on the device, you won't be able to update any of them. You'll have to purchase them again.

I bought an iphone4 from a friend and he was on orange i have put my o2 sim in the phone and it is saying restricted network with no service any ideas thanks

I bought an iphone4 from a friend and he was using it on orange i have put my o2 sim in the phone and it is saying restricted network with no service any ideas thanks

That is because the phone is locked to the Orange network and an o2 sim card is not going to work with a phone that is locked to Orange.
You either need to purchase an Orange sim card and use that in the phone, or you need to get your friend to contract Orange and get the phone unlocked so that you can use an 02 sim card.
At the moment you will never be able to use the 02 sim card if the phone is locked to Orange. Either use Orange or get the phone unlocked. It is as simple as that.

Use a third-party utility such as Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac.

I got a new itunes account through my iphone but i still have all my music on my iphone but when i go to itunes its not there anymore, how do i get all my music from my phone to my computer??

i just got a new itunes acount because my other one wasnt working and it was fine i still had all my music on my phone, but then i had to restart my whole laptop back to the way it was when i first bought it because it was so slow, so when i downloaded itunes back and signed in none of my music was there. how do i download all my music from my iphone 5 to my laptop

I would not suggest starting anew AppleID as you will have problems with previous purchases.

How doesn't it work?
so when i downloaded itunes back and signed in none of my music was there.
Because it is part of your old AppleID (and your library does not just magically appear).
Did you make a backup of your HD?
jhow do i download all my music from my iphone 5 to my laptop
Authorize your computer for your old AppleID then File > Devices, select your device then Transfer purchases.
I highly suggest you sort out the issue with your old AppleID and continue to use that. Remove your personal info from the new AppleID and don't use it.

HT201472 hi there i have lost my iphone and i want to find it but i dont know how?

hi

Provided you have Find My iPhone configured before you lost it and the iPhone has Internet connection,
to locate use you computer browser with this link: https://www.icloud.com/#find
If you cannot track it, report to the police, insurance, carrier and change all your passowrds that were used in iPhone.

I have given up on Mozilla to solve my problem which is I can not view videos from any website. I have lost my patience with so called fixes that do not work .

continued, so I have removed Mozilla from my pc and will not return until you fix this problem, so Goodbye from rxman 1975

I have itunes on one computer. my account says that I have 2 computers authorized. I want to have itunes on both users accounts on my computer. how do I do this? thanks for any help!

I have itunes on my computer in my main user account. I want ot have the same itunes on the other user account on my computer - under the apple account info- it says that I already have 2 computers authorized - how do I find out which 2 they are talking about? the only button nearlby is one that says to 'deauthorize all' etc.... thanks,. I have a pc.

You can only deauthorize all your itunes computers once a year, so I would avoid clicking that at the moment. Log onto the 2nd user, and open itunes. Go to Store> Authorize This computer.
As an alternative, you could point the 2nd user itunes library to the primary itunes folder. So both users would use the same itunes folder. You can do this by holding shift, clicking itunes icon. There should be an option to browse for an existing library. Locate the main computers itunes folder. (Most likely under: C:\Users\*Account name*\Music where *Account name* would be your main user accounts name.
Good luck!

TS3992 i have 1200 pictures to back up on iCloud. how long does this take?

I have just signed up for i-cloud across my i-phone 4S, i-pod and Mac. How long should it take to back up 1200 photos from my phone? thanks

you run speed test on your network. But never mind that. even with knowledge of that speed and size of that backup, I will not give you precise numbers, so here is an example - if your ISP is DSL and size of the backup is 1 Gb - backup may take overnight. If your network cable- way faster, but I have seen backups over 20 gigs. Your backup size is way bigger then one.
