I have only Iphone serial number, no backup - no box, how can i get IMEI number of my lost iphone?

can any one help me to recover my iphone, which i had lost. I don't have box and itune backup. only serial number is with me.

scenario is that when i purchased iphone 4g. It has restarting issue so i took that for warranty claim, They kept only handset not the box and other accessries. After a week they returned me the only iphone handset not any thing else. It was working ok - I thought it was same iphone which i got in box but repaired or software reset.
Then after 1.8 year i lost that phone, unfortunatly I sold out my laptop having itunes backup brfore lost.
I had only icloud backup of my iphone. I provided my IMEI to local security authorities to recover my phone. But there is no progress, Then I realized my be I provided them wrong IMEI. Then i checked out the serial number on the box I have and the serial number registered on my apple support account both are different. I checked IMEI status on different website they have status that "Device has been replaced"
Serial Number original Iphone:                  691135RUA4S
Serial Number at Apple support account:  7S116UJ8A4S

    Open iTunes on the computer you sync with, go to Preferences, on the Devices tab hover your mouse over your backup.  A pop-up will appear showing you your IMEI number.

  • I have several pdfs on my iPad in iBooks. My iPhone shows only the categories, none of the documents. How can I get my iPhone to also show the documents that are on my iPad?

    You will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to your computer (that will copy PDFs and epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks), and you can then sync them to your iPhone. Or you might be able to open each PDF in iBooks on your iPad and use the share icon to email them to yourself and then use 'open in' in the Mail app on your iPhone to copy them to its iBooks app (if the PDF is protected then you may not get the email option via the share icon).
    The Settings > iBooks > Sync Collections setting doesn't copy items between devices, it just means that it a bookor PDF is on both devices and you move it into a collection on one device then it will be moved into the same collection on the other device

    Try restoring the backup again.  Your apps and other purchased media should have been restored from your backup if they were on your old phone when you backed it up.

    Sorry Raj,
    If you did not back up your information, and you have now restored your phone, then your information is not recoverable.

  • My iphone has calendar history for 10 years.  my icloud only shows about 6-8 weeks back.  how can i get icloud to show all the calendar events in the past that are on iphone?

    my iphone has calendar history for 10 years.  my icloud only shows about 6-8 weeks back.  how can i get icloud to show all the calendar events in the past that are on iphone?

    I encountered a similar problem when finally (and with much regret) I was obliged to migrate my MobileMe to iCloud last month.
    Many years of iCal history vanished without trace during this automated transition by Apple and iCloud then kindly synched the resulting vacuum back to iCal on my Mac.
    Fortunately, iCloud wasn’t able to decimate iCal on my other Macs because (1) they are still running Snow and (2) I had switched them off as a precaution.  Good job I did.
    My solution was to export my iCal data on one of those other Macs to a backup file – then I imported that backup file into my Lion-updated Mac’s iCal. That restored all the iCloud-deleted iCal data back on to my Mac and this was promptly synched automatically to my Calendar on iCloud.  So now it’s all there and showing.
    Perhaps you could do something similar?  In the meantime, be very careful not to let iCloud’s amnesia get synched to your iPhone (and other devices).
    Experience has taught me never to trust an “upgrade” until it is proven to be working correctly and always to keep in reserve another Mac with a properly-functioning system and all synching to it switched off...

  • HT1386 My (iTunes) playlist cannot be re-synched to my iPhone after I updated it.  I synched it to a newly named playlist with most of the original songs (3.6G) but it will only load a fraction of them now.  How can I get them all back on my iPhone.

  • I don't have a good good disc for the mac box set can i get it with it my serial no.

    I don't have a good good disc for the mac box set can i get it with it my box number?

    If this is a new box you just bought ad the disk is bad, Apple will replace it for you.  OTOH, if you have lost the disk or it has become damaged over time, that is your responsibility, and though I don't speak for Apple, I'd be very surprised if you had any option other than buying another copy.

    Hi Myreiac,
    Here's what the Apple Support site says you can do if you do not have access to a computer when your device has been disabled:
    If you are using Find My iPhone, you can use Remote Wipe to restore your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode.
    You can access Find My iPhone via the Find My iPhone app on your iPad.
    Good luck!
    Cheers,

  • I am trying to update my time machine backup on time capsule, but time machine keeps trying to create an entirely new backup (evidenced by the 200GB backup size). How can I get time machine to modify my old backup rather than create a new one?

    It must have found the old backup corrupt.. so you will more than likely have little choice. You can archive off the old backup if it is still useful.
    You can also verify it. See A5 http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    He also has some info on this problem. eg C13.

  • We have a newish apple mac and this morning all our files have vanished - all photo's, vidoes, music etc.  How can we get it back?  Thanks

    First of all, look in the garbage. It's easy to move a folder there without knowing it.
    Second, do a Spotlight Search (Cmd-Space), and search for a file you know should be there. If you find the file, there's a good chance that the other files you're looking for are there, too.
    If you're in kind of a crisis mode, coming up with pat advice probably isn't a good policy - but I suggest investing in a backup drive in case anything goes wrong. A program like Time Machine can be a life saver.
    Post with your results!

  • I had quite a few notes in the 'Notes' app. I suddenly find that all of them, except 3 have disappeared. What could be the reason and how can I get my notes back?

    Not fully au fait with iCloud. I don't use it. But if you have done a backup to iCloud then this might help. This reply will refresh your post thereby giving others an opportunity to comment. Meanwhile, read up about iCloud in the User Guide. Here's the link to download it - http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad

  • I dont have icloud on my imac to set it up how can i get it

    Hi i don;t have icloud on my imac to st it up how can i get it

    Pleaase always post your System when you have a question: the answer is very often quite different depending on your system. I would assume you have 10.6.8 or earlier?
    The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.2 (Mountain Lion preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is non non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
    You can set Snow Leopard up to access the email on an existing iCloud account which has been set up on a compliant device, and you may be able to sync iCal using an unsupported (and possibly unreliable) hack, but no other facilities will work. You cannot open an iCloud account on Snow Leopard.
    This page outlines the limited use you can make of an existing iCloud account with Snow Leopard:
    http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudSL.html
    To make proper use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Leopard or Snow Leopard, provided it meets the requirements.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    To purchase it you will have to ring Apple at the number given at the bottom left of this page.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion are listed here:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
    You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
