I lost my iphone can i trace it using imei number

i lost my iphone is there any chance to trace it using IMEi number

No.
The only way to track it is if you setup the free "Find my iPhone" service on it, before you lost it. The phone also needs to be turned on, have an Internet connection, and not have been wiped.

  • HELP! Lost of Iphone...in need of IMEI number.

    I lost my Iphone 4s and I need the iMei number to trace. Currently Im still tracing under Find My iPhone App using iPad. THAT fellow actually off my phone at my last location. So I cant detect until the mobile is on. 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? It was swapped with Singtel as due to previous phone is faulty and replaced. So the box that originally does not have the new iMei. Can I use Itune? As previously, I did sync into iTunes before. Will it have the record of my iMEI number? PLEASE HELP ME!

  • HT1391 I have lost my iphone ,can i find it with serial number ??

    My iphone devise has been stolen ,i wish to locate it with my serial number ,how could i find it ?

    No, you can't trace it via the serial number. If you set up the Find My iPhone service prior to your iPhone going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors: the iPhone is turned on, connected to either the 3G or a WiFi network, or has not had the Find My iPhone service disabled or the iPhone been completely restored. Log into icloud.com and go to the Find My iPhone section. If you did not set up Find My iPhone, check with your cell carrier. Some carriers offer their own tracking service, though you usually have to sign up when you still have the phone and have to pay for the service. 
    If your carrier does not offer such a service and you did not set up Find My iPhone, then there is no way to track the unit. Notify the police and your cell carrier, and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPhone (the iTunes Store, for instance).
    By the way, you posted in the iTunes Store forum, not usually the best place to ask a question about an iPhone.
    Regards.

  • Can I get my phones IMEI number using iCloud?

    Hi, I've lost my iPhone and need to retrieve the Imei number but the phone was purchased on ebay, therefore not the original one from my contract. My network provider do not have a record of thus phones imei. Is there anyway I can find it using iCloud? Please help. Many thanks :)

    Of course it changed. A phone's IMEI number is unique to each phone. The IMEI number for a phone does not transfer to another phone.
    Since your iPhone was exchanged under warranty without having the box and bill for the original purchase, you don't need it now either. The exchange under warranty remains under the warranty for the original purchase.

  • I have lost my iphone. can i tract it?

    I have lost my iphone, can I tract it?

    IF you activated the free Find my iPhone service BEFORE you lost it, and it is on, connected to either the cell network or WiFi and has not been wiped, then you can log into http://me.com/find and locate it. If not, no.

  • If i have lost my iphone can i retrieve my pics and messages using icloud

    if i have lost my iphone can i retrieve my pics and contacts using icloud?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Contacts should already be at iCloud.com if you have already set up iCloud sync services. Photos in Photostream can be viewed on a computer using the same iCloud account, but not at iCloud.com.
    If you haven't already set up iCloud on your phone you won't be able to do so now you have lost it.

    How to trace a lost iphone using IMEI number?

    Not possible.
    If your carrier has a blacklist service for phones reported lost or stolen that were activated with their network, this will prevent the phone from being activated on their network again.

    No! Apple is not law enforcement and therefore does not have personal investigating lost or stolen property other than Apple's own.
    Even if they had the information data protection laws would prevent them from giving it to you or anybody else including law enforcement.
