non of them it works with the appleID so if the thief restore the device so your appleID is not longer used you can't whipe or block it from icloud
anything else would put apple in big trouble with the law in most countries

    I lost my Iphone 4s and I need the iMei number to trace. THAT fellow actually off my phone at my last location.I dont have sim on that i phone.I am trying to trace the iphone through find my phone but it showing offline. Thus another way of solving will be through IMEI number which i need to hand it over to the police! How can i get the iMei number? Can I use Itune? As previously, I did sync into iTunes before. Will it have the record of my iMEI number? PLEASE HELP ME!

  • I recently lost my iphone 4 and have an iphone3 on loan until I get upgrade in Aug.  I want to sync my data - contacts most important  - from my itunes account...is this possible?  Is it possible to change the user ID on the borrowed phone to my ID?

    I recently lost my iphone 4 and have an iphone3 on loan until I get upgrade in Aug.  I want to sync my data - contacts most important  - from my itunes account...is this possible?  Is it possible to change the user ID on the borrowed phone to my ID?

    There are no contacts in itunes.
    Your contact should be on your computer in whatever program you have selected to sync.  Just sync them to the new one.
    Click Support at the top of this page, then click manuals
    Changing the itunes account on nthe iphone is covered there as is restoring the iphone as new or from backup.

  • I lost my iPhone 4s and I was wondering since I never manually uploaded my pictures or videos in a program, once my device was backing up is there any chance I can view or might have the pictures or videos on my macbook pro?

    I have lost my iphone 4s and was wondering where and if I can access my pictures and videos on my mac if that is possible. Thank you in advance and cheers!

    If you synced your phone with iTunes to create a backup while these were on the phone you may be able to recover your pictures and videos using 3rd party software such as iPhone Backup Extractor.  You can find out if you have a backup by opening iTunes, going to Preferences, and looking at the list of backup(s) on the Devices tab.

        Let's ensure we get this new device up and running, 123Vika. I know the importance of having a functional device. I have some great news you can activate the device directly from My Verizon. Take a look; http://vz.to/1gdvahs

  • I've lost my iphone 4S and i didn't active the Icloud so what can i do to find it

    i’ve lost my iphone 4S and i didn't active the Icloud so what can i do to find it ?

    Look where you think you left it. Report the loss to the police.  The Find My iPhone thing only works if you activated it before losing it, and even then only under specific conditions.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17869845 - stolen iPhone
    Apple - iPhone 4S - Locate your missing iPhone with Find My iPhone - http://www.apple.com/iphone/built-in-apps/find-my-iphone.html
    Note that these features require you have the "Find My" activated before you lose the device, the device be turned on and able to connect to a registered wifi connection (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) or data network (iPhone, iPad), and not having been restored by a finder of the device (if it was really stolen then the thief has probably restored it). If you have activated the "Find My" feature, go to https://www.icloud.com or use the Find My iPhone app - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-iphone/id376101648?mt=8

  • HT204053 i lost my iPhone recently and how can i retrieve it using my Apple ID? also, how to turn icloud on using Itunes even if the phone's lost?

    i lost my iPhone recently and how can i retrieve it using my Apple ID? also, how to turn icloud on using Itunes even if the phone's lost?

    Unless you had enabled Find My iPhone on it before it was lost then there isn't any way to locate it (it can only be turned on directly on the phone, it can't be done remotely). If you did enable it then you could try locating it either via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPhone disabled on it.
    If you think that it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

    i lost my iphone 5 and i don't have i tunes.can i use my phone number or any other way to get the serial number?

    No.
    Serial number is available If you have:
    1. The iPhone box when you bought it, if you still have it.
    2. The receipt, where you bought the iPhone
    3. Computer iTunes, if you have synced or backuped the iPhone.
    4. https://supportprofile.apple.com if you have iPhone registered

    Stop Lost Mode or change your contact info
                               Sign in to icloud.com/#find with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud).                                                      If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.                       
                               Click All Devices, then select the device that’s in Lost Mode.                       
                               Click Lost Mode, then change the information or click Stop Lost Mode.

  • Lost my iphone 5 and want your help to get it. Have my apple id for 2 devices

    Lost my iphone 5 and need your help please since i downloaded find my iphone and can only locate my ipad

    If Find My iPhone doesn't show a location for the iPhone, then unless your carrier offers some sort of tracking service, there will be no way to locate the phone other than to just look for it. Notify the police in case someone turns it in and change passwords to your Apple ID and any other online services you used from your iPhone.
    Regards.

    Hi there balaji007,
    You may find the troubleshooting steps in the articles below helpful.
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Issue not resolved
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

    I lost my iphone 5 and when i m trying to find this icloud showing no devices

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate, lock or erase your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
