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.
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, all a thief or whoever finds it has to do is force the phone into recovery mode & restore it. While this deletes all data on the phone, it also removes the passcode so the phone can then be used as a phone or touch.

If you had "Find My iPhone" enabled then you may be able to locate it. If not, you cannot locate it. If it was enabled then you can try locating it via http://icloud.com on a computer or the App "Find My iPhone" on another iDevice. Note: this will only work if your device is connected to a network and the device hasn't already been restored as new and/or "Find My iPhone" has not been disabled on it.
If you think that your device was stolen rather than lost then you should report it to the police. In either case you should contact your carrier, change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

I accepted/installed an update for iMovie and it turns out that this version is not compatible with my graphics card. So now I can no longer open or use iMovie. Any ideas on how to get around this - how to revert to the previous version.

Look in your Applications folder. If your system behaved as expected, you should have an iMovie 9.0 folder in your Applications folder. Apple moved the old version there as even they suspected the new versions was a train wreck.

I would like to put Dreamweaver 8 on a new computer. There is no "deactivate" function and the technical support person I chatted with recommended I come here. Can I just use the serial number again? How can I deactive? Has anyone else run into this?

How can I get Dreamweaver 8, which is no longer being activated by Adobe, on a new computer? Is it even worth doing or do I need to get a new version. What are the killer features I'm missing?

If you manage to get it installed on your current OS, don't forget to install the 8.02 update.

e time machaine use the MAC HD drive. How do I get this Installed?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
That's because you have a "Backups.backupdb" folder at the root level of the hard disk, so the Mountain Lion installer detects that your OS X partition is being used by Time Machine. Just open Finder, select Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type "/" (without quotes). Finally, delete the "Backups.backupdb" folder and run the OS X installer again

Unless you installed the Find My iPad app before it was lost then it's not possible to find it with a computer or the iPad's serial number.

I Am wanting to from a prepay phone to a 2-year contract, all through verizon, but i need to keep the same number

You're starting in the right place, PrinessZeldaOOT!
There are some things that we must share with you.
As long as you have an active 3G prepaid service for 6 months or a 4G device (no restrictions) and pass the credit check and/or pay any required security deposit this can be done. Any voicemails will be deleted once you are set up on the postpy system. From there, you can call 800-256-4646 (800-2-JOIN-IN) or visit a VZW Retail store http://bit.ly/3SdsA to complete the migration.
Thanks for staying with us!

I purchased Lr3 (disc) and never installed. I now have a Mac laptop, no disc drive. Can I install just using the serial

I purchased Lr3 (disc) and never installed. I now have a Mac laptop, no disc drive. Can I install it just using the serial #? If so how?

You can get a download for Mac at this link and then validate it with your serial number.

Note that LR3 was designed for OSX 10.5 or 10.6. It will run on 10.9 (Mavericks) but there may be some appearance differences to the sliders. But why not give the download a try. Otherwise you may be best to upgrade to LR5 or wait for LR6.

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:

If you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted. The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync. You need to use different IDs. You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps. But use different icloud IDs.

Media and apps are not part of the backup. They need to be re-synced from your itunes library or re-downloaded from the store.

HT4137 I HAVE LOST MY I PHONE-4, HOW TO BACK UP ALL MY PHONE DATA FROM I CLOUD, TO MY EXISTING I PAD?

I have lost my i phone-4 recently. How to back up all the data from i cloud to my existing i pad? Pls help.

No. If there's no backup, there is no place to get the data back from.
Apps and music purchased from the iTunes store can be downloaded using the same ID used to purchase them at no charge. Any in app data is gone. some in app purchases may be gone.
