I like the new iOS 7 for iphone... But i think it's not a good idea to allow switch the iphone on flight mode when it is locked.. What happens if your iphone is stolen or lost? You couldn't be able to locate it using find my iphone... Can i remove this from the bottom menu?
And have your phone set to require a passcode before it can be accessed.

I've lost my iPod Touch. Should I erase everything off of it? And if I do, would I still be able to locate it with 'Find my iPhone' app?
If you want to track it, then put it in Lost Mode. If you erase it then you can't track it.

If you weren't signed in, it's too late to do so now. Go to http://icloud.com and see if it can be tracked.

Hi Team, I have lost my iphone 5c and at the time it was off due to battery. Up to now I haven't been able to locate it using Find my iphone app... Please help me with ideas.
Sorry, there is no magic way to find it. You will need to search for it, as you would with any other object.

My iPad was stolen yesterday. I cannot track it while using find my iPhone is saying is off.
My iPad was stolen at the house yesterday. I have reported the matter to law enforcement. I have tried to track it using find my iPhone from my iPhone and it shows that the iPad is off. My work and important documents are there. Anyone who can assist on how I can trace it?
You cannot trace it if it is offline.
Hopefully you have a passcode on your iPad and you have backups of these documents. -

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
The "Find my iPhone" app isn't available for Macs and PCs. However, there's another method to use Find my iPhone to track your devices. Open http://www.icloud.com, log in with your Apple ID, and choose "Find my iPhone" -

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:

my iphone has been lost in my house and i need to find a way to track it and its offline. it wont connect to the internet so there isnt a way to use find my iphone. i just want to play a sound on it. is there any way i can get a app that connects my ipod from a laptop or a different way to find it.
If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way. Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

He wouldnt tell me the password and since he went to mexico to visit cousins he wont come back till October. What shall i do? I wanna unlock it. Somebody please help me. Thanks in advance.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -

Your iPhone was not put into Lost Mode because of an unexpected error. Try enabling Lost Mode again.

I my phone was stolen or lost and I turned on Lost mode. Can I still track it if I disconnecte my phone from the network(AT&T).?
Hello Fraga0714
The iPhone itself would need to have access to the internet, either your carrier or Wi-Fi, for it to be located using Find My iPhone. Check out the article below for more information if you want more info to track your iPhone if it is lost or stolen.
