Hi,
I have lost my iphone but it has not been stolen as it is still ringing. Is there a way of being able to locate the iphone at all, despite not having any relevant apps installed?
Andy

Other than physically looking for it, no. There is no way to locate it.

Unless the photos are synced somewhere to your computer or somewhere else I don't believe you can.

My i4 and pads are fine, I've had this phone for 8 months with no problems until last night , AT&T not any help,apple wants $ I thing it's a software problem.. Any one had this issue?

- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
- Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
- Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

I have collected alot of music over the years and the new update will delete all my music. I have puchased a new computer about a year ago so the previous music that I have is not available. Is there anyway to get the update and not lose all my music

I have collected alot of music over the past couple years and the new update for the itouch says that it will erase all music and videos on the ipod. Is there anyway to do the update and not lose all my music or is there a way to take all the music off my ipod and store it on my computer to put back on after the update? Any help

... I have had numerous computers over the past years
Let me guess, you have had numerous Windows computers, all of which crashed or became worthless virus-ridden junk. Happens every day, yet people think Macs are expensive.
Anyway, you are going to need the assistance of third party utilities to extract your iPod Touch's content. See wjosten's procedure here:

I have an I phone 4s and I have many contacts in my phone. However, whne my phone rings or I receive a text, the phone does not show the name of the contact person only the phone number. I have checked every setting I can think of ?

I have an I phone 4s and I have many contacts in my phone. However, when my phone rings or I receive a message. The phone does not show the name of the caller. It only shows the phone number that is calling. I am sure this is a setting problem, but I have checked every setting I can think of. Any suggestions??

If you are a Verizon user try this:
Open the phone and dial *228. This is a Verizon over-the-air programming number.
When the system answer press 1 for "Program or activate your phone"
Wait for the call to disconnect. You should get a prompt stating "Settings updated."
Double tap the Home button to bring up the recently used apps list at the bottom. Locate the Phone, Message, and Contacts apps, swiping if necessary, and press and hold until they jiggle then press the red minus sign to stop them.
Wait a 3-5 minutes.
Try your phone again and see if it's fixed.

My iPhone 5 has my old email address and password in it, I updated both online, but my phone will not recognize and therefore has now locked me out of my photo stream. how do I change my iCloud email on my phone???

Please help.
iCloud on my iPhone still has my old email in it with no option to update it. I have no access to the old email. I updated my email and password online via my macbook, but my phone will not recognize either! It keeps popping up a screen for me to enter my password, but it says it's incorrect.
How do I fix this on my phone?????
I can't fix it online because my iCloud online (although working) does not recognize either of my devices because they need updated….which I'm not able to do due to storage issues.
I just want my phone to recognize the new email and password!!
I have no idea what I'm doing but I'm about to throw this phone across the room.
thanks!

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

This is answer is provided from my own database of boilerplate responses and the content was last reviewed and tested on: 2014/05/23
You should still be able to log into an old email account, even if you haven't used it for some time, very few providers delete email accounts.

TS3682 i had a iPhone 4 and then got a new computer, i installed iTunes but i couldnt sync with my iTunes it didnt see the iPhone, i got a new iPhone 5C and up dated it via iCloud and still my computer will no sync with the phone, again it fails to see it

Hi
I had a iPhone 4 and then got a new computer, I installed iTunes to it but my new computer refused to sync with my phone, i backed up my phone via icloud and purchased tracks etc from iTunes, but now i have a new iPhone 5C and I backed it up via the icloud, not all data was transfered, music etc.
Again my computer will not sync with the new phone, it doesnt see the phone within my libary, doesn't give an option to do any thing with phone
Can so one please let me know were Kim going wrong, I have authorized my computer to itunes I really don't know what to do now?

Need to Resume download to complete the ongoing Process.
Last Resort, put the iPhone in DFU mode (Google How to do that). Connect in iTunes. Follow on-screen prompts to Restore. All Data would be lost, if not backed up earlier.
To save the photographs you may have to use third party software. Google is your friend.

Ok sorted it looks like the folder where the music is stored had changed to itunes media when all my music is in itunes music. I have reset the default folder back to itunes music and that seem to have solved the issue. Thanks for those that helped.

Find My iPhone will display the last location of the device for 24 hours:

I had a recent loss of my iphone. i had purchased another iphone, and had all my info transfored onto the new one . i have either lost,or some one else has taken it. if battery is dead and the phone is not activated how might i still locate this phone????

i recenly purchased a new iphone,and had my information transfored from from the old iphone onto the new one. i have either lost,misplaced,or someone else has taken the iphone. the old phone was momentarily out of service, however i had activated the "find my phone" in the settings. i figure the battry has already ran down so if it were in the house i would still be unable to locate the phone.when logging into icloud to try and locate the phone all i can find is the new iphone i recently purchased. does anyone have a few suggestions i might try to locate this phone ,or am i S.O.L. ??????

If the battery is dead the only way to find it is to physically look for it.

I switched the usb port and did the whole recovery holding of the buttons ect... And it worked, the computer detected the phone and i was able to click restore. However, the computer says preparing iphone for restore and it is still doing the restarting thing where the apple fades away and then comes back like it is restarting. If i can somehow get past this i will be able to go back to factory settings and resolve my problem, but this is where i am stuck.

Hi, just bought an Idjay system and I can't get it to work with any of the following: I tried iphone 4s but it has IOS7 so the phone is not recognising when I am plugging the system in I have tried ITouchs,phones

I have bought a Idjay system and I have the App on the 4S phone however the phone is not aknowledging the system. After googling we found that their is an issue with IOS7 for this system. So we tried an Itouch, its on IOS6 but doesnt work. Then tried an Ipad but the first version. Thought we had success when the Ipad seen the system connect to it. However I then went to download the App onto the Ipad but it needs IOS6 onwards and as its the first model of the Ipad the latest version is 5.1.1 so I cant download the App...
Any suggestions? do you know how to get the 4S phone to work with it as that would be the ideal scenario?
Thanks in advance

They said that there shouldn't be any reason for it not to work. I bought it off ebay and the previous owner used it on the same devices that I am

You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
