Not setting up with iCloud means that you will not be able to go to www.icloud.com to find it, but using the Find my iPhone app on another device may find it.
No, the Find My iPhone/iPad apps are just mobile interfaces for the same system used to find a device on iCloud.com. If a device isn't set up with iCloud Find My iPhone, it can't be located.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The Find my iPhone app allows you to track all your devices with Find my iPhone (iPad, iPod or Mac) turned on. To enable Find my iPhone, open Settings > iCloud and turn on "Find my iPhone", so you will be able to track your iPhone through the application.

  • TS4006 can you look up your iphone 5 with out having set up your account in icloud?

    can you look up your iphone5 without having to set up your icloud? and disconnecting your phone after it got stolen?

    If you mean can you locate it without having set up iCloud, the answer is no.  You have to have set up iCloud and enabled Find My iPhone on your phone before it was stolen in order to locate it.

    Is there any way that I can find the last location that I left it,eventhough I called in lost and stolen and reactivated my # to a different device.

    If you didn't set up Find My iPhone or it otherwise does not appear in icloud.com, then there's no way to trace it. 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).

    If you didn't set up Find My Phone before you lost it, then there is no way to activate it while it's lost.
    Sorry.

    You can't create an iCloud account on your PC.  You have to first create an iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher).  After creating the account on one of these devices you can use the ID to sign into the account on your PC.

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone
    - You can also have to iPod play a sound via iCloud.

    How can I find my iPod touch that got lost ? But I don't have the Find my Phone app .
    Please , help me ..

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have to iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

    If you didn't set up Find My iPhone in the iCloud settings, then you can't. Notify the police and change the password to your Apple ID and any other online services you used from that iPhone, just as a precaution.

  • WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization?

    WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files and/or documents in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization? Even after I numbered the documents/folders to keep them in my preferred order, it will still displace them occasionally. This is becoming increasingly frustrating!
    Is this a "Pages" issue or "FInder"? The vast majority of documents I use are in Pages, but there are also Numbers, PDFs, jpegs and a few other applications involved. This never happened before I upgraded to Mountain Lion; in Tiger, the documents (mostly Appleworks) and files stayed where I wanted them to be.
    I am visually oriented, and prefer to arrange items in a folder in an order that makes them easier for me to access, which is often NOT alphabetical.
    Can anyone suggest a solution? Please??
    Thank you.

    nbar,
    Thank you for your reply.
    However, I do not understand what you mean by "user account." I am the only user, and can find no options for "user" or "guest." The parental controls have always been off, as there are no other people who have access to my computer.
    Frank,
    Thank you for your reply.
    All my documents, files and folders are in icon view, Arranged By: none in both view and view options. This arbitrary rearranging does not happen all the time, only when I make a substantial change to one of the documents in the file or folder. I'm not sure what you mean by "column heading."
    MichaelLAX,
    Thank you for your reply.
    I know, to my sorrow, that Appleworks does not work with Mountain Lion. I spent at least three months converting approximately 2,000 Appleworks documents to Pages, Numbers, Bento (for databases) and Touchdraw (for drawings). So this is not the problem; but as I said, I did not have this rearranging problem with Appleworks - the icons stayed where I wanted them to be. I still miss the ease and reliability of Appleworks, darn it!
    Frank,
    Thank you for your second reply.
    I do have the Sort By: in view options as well as in view set to "none."   The finder still insists on rearranging, but only when I have made a substantial change to a document in that file or folder.
    Any futher thoughts?
    xdab, 
    Thank you for your reply.
    "Are you are using icon view, but for some reason the finder moves files around? is that the problem?"
    YES!! This is exactly the problem.
    "If this operation is successful then erase the original and rename the new one to the name originally chosen by the user."
    This seems like a lot of trouble, especially as I often work on several documents at the same time.
    "By the way, the finder has a "clean up by" menu that rearranges icons in one of the standard orders, there are shortcuts that produce the same effect, for example <option><cmd>1 sorts them by name. Is it possible that this shortcut was typed by mistake without you noticing?"
    I do know about this "clean up by" option, and avoid it like the plague! So I doubt this is the issue, and I infrequently use keyboard shortcuts like this anyway.
    Thanks all who replied. None of the suggestions seem to work, however. Any others out there?
    Regards,
    Sara

  • Mac OS X v10.5: Does the Finder always stay open?

    First off: sorry again for all the n00b questions.
    Next: So does the finder always stay "open"? Like with the blue dot below it. I already asked about the others and I realized I have to click command+Q but for the finder... it just stays "open"
    Oh and Is there a way to search on this forum? I know on the forum for my car ('97 Acura CL if anyones curious) there is a search function that all the n00bs are told to do before starting a new thread...

    You can quit the Finder but the option is hidden by default in OS X. As the Finder is the way that you interact with OS X its default is to restart automatically if it's quit. For example if it locked up (never happened to me though) and you used Force Quit (alt - command - esc) it would restart automatically. Using a third party application like TinkerTool (which simply opens up more of OS X'x capabilities) you can quit the Finder for specific purposes.
