Try closing the App Store app via the iPad's taskbar and then do a soft-reset and see if you can install it after the iPad has restarted. To close the App Store : double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag the App Store app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
Soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Do I need to download the Find my Iphone app if it is already enabled on my iphone's settings?

    Do I need to download the Find my Iphone app if it is already enabled on my iphone's settings?

    Good question.  No, you do not.
    The only reason you would need the "Find My iPhone" app on your iPhone would be to find a different iPhone (or iPad) on this particular iPhone.
    Right now, with no additional app on your iPhone, if lost, you could find it from a computer or other device by simply logging into iCloud using your Apple ID and password.

  • TS3376 The find my iPhone app shows my iPad and iPhone in a totally different location about 100 miles away and my devices are in my lap? I'm confused ...

    The find my iPhone app shows my iPad and iPhone in a totally different location about 100 miles away and my devices are in my lap.... I'm confused ...

    Any thoughts on this , I'm worried that someone has cloned my device Id  and is phishing , or would there be just a major glitch in the GPS ? I have turned off the location app and turned it back on to see if it was a glitch still comes up to the same location about 100 miles way to a place I have never been.  Help !

  • How to install the Find my Iphone app

    I have an IPhone 5c that needs a Find My Iphone connection to my HP Pavillion Notebook dmd.116Ous. I am not getting instructions that I understand. Please advise. 

    The fins my iPhone app has nothing to do with finding the iPhone on which you install it.  It allows you to find your other advices from that iPhone.
    In order to be able to track your iPhone you simply need to turn on the find my iPhone feature in settings.  You need no app at all.  There is nothing to install.

  • TS4006 I lost my iphone 4S and I did install the Find my Iphone app in case of such a tragedy. I reported to Telus that my iphone was lost and they locked the phone. One of my friends was called by a person who claimed to find my phone but did not drop it

    I lost my new apple 4S iphone I believe at Newport Village in Port Moody, BC, Canada. I immediately called my network Telus Mobility and reported the phone lost / stolen. They then put the phone on restricted service. A day later one of my friends / contacts in my phone received a call from a person who was at Newport Village and had found my iphone. The unknown person wanted Miles (my friend) to meet him at Newport Village so he can return my iphone. Unfortunately my friend was not arround to meet this unknown person who found the phone. Miles (my friend told this person that he could leave the phone at the local IGA only feet from Newport Village. I went to the IGA but to my surprise the phone was NOT there. I immediately installed the app "Find my iphone" when I first bought this new iphone 4S but everytime I check it, it says that my device is not on. So I'm wondering what the best way I can go about finding my iphone. I was told by my Telus rep that I could relay a message to the iphone offering a reward should he return it to me. Please if you can help me in any way, I would be eternally greatful. I'm on disability and on a fixed income so simply replacing the phone is not an option for me.

    If the phone is offline there is no way to track it or send a message to it.  You can place it in lost mode to lock it and send it a message (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165), but this will not take place until the phone goes back online, if it ever does.  If it does, you will get an email informing you.

  • Do you need to activate the "find my iphone" app on the actual iphone in order for it to work, I have downloaded an iso update earlier in the week.

    Unfortunately my phone was stolen from my workplace on thurs & I didnt have the FMI app turned on.....is their any chance I can turn this on via icloud or itunes????

    The app is only for locating another iOS device from the one the app is installed upon.
    If you didn't setup the iCloud account and turn Find my iPhone on in the settings BEFORE the phone was stolen, then you can't track it now or activate it remotely.

  • Why can't I install the find my friend app onto my ipad?

  • I have lost my phone and want to use the find my iphone app to delete all the info on my phone. How can i do this on another persons iphone? do i need to log out of their icloud account and then sign in under mine?

    I have lost my iphone 4s and want to use find my iphone app on my boyfriends iphone 3s to delete the info on my now lost phone. Do i need to log out of his icloud inorder to log into mine to do this on his phone?

    You need to use the Find My iPhone app (in the itunes store - free).  When invoking it on a device, you enter the ID password of the account the lost device is connected to.  You can also use a computer's browser and log into icloud.com.

  • TS4006 Can you localize a lost iPhone if the "Find my iPhone" app is not installed ? on the lost device?

    My friend has lost her iPhone (actually stolen after a burglary). She hadn't installed the "Find my iPhone" app - and I tried to localize it without any success. Are there some other solutions to localize the phone??

    No

  • Is there a way to find my iPhone 4s if I did not download the find my iPhone app?

    Is there a way to find my iPhone 4s if I did not install the find my iPhone app?

    The app has nothing to do with this. The app allows someone to locate their iOS device with your iOS device.
    Now, what if he had the app installed, and someone else did too, by what you're saying, he could then track his iPhone using theirs.
    So the app actually has some bearing, not much, but it's there. I was merely stating that without either the app, or iCloud, then no, he cannot track it. But he can use iCloud because he possibly has Find My iPhone activated.
    Now, why don't we both be good little children, shake hands, wander off, and try to help some people rather than argue with eachother for no apparent reason?

  • I lost my ipad how to track it .have not installed find my iPhone app on my ipad .

    I lost my iPad Air .. How to trace it . Itz only a week I have got it .. Have not installed find my iPhone app in my ipad .. Itz is a wifi + 3G model .. What to do?

    You do not need to install the "Find My iPhone" App.
    If you had "Find My iPad" enabled in Settings > iCloud then you may be able to locate it. If not, you cannot locate it.
    If it was enabled then you can try locating it via http://icloud.com on a computer or the App "Find My iPhone" on another iDevice. Note: this will only work if your device is connected to a network and the device hasn't already been restored as new and/or "Find My iPad" has not been disabled on it. Note: Disabling "Find My iPad" is much more difficult in iOS 7.
    If you think that your device was stolen rather than lost then you should report it to the police. In either case you should contact your carrier, change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

  • I had the "find my iphone" app and deleted it and then my ipod was stolen. can my ipod still be located ?

    i had the "find my iphone" app and deleted it and then my ipod was stolen. can my ipod still be located ?

    Apple will not track it for you unless with Find my iPod. Again, whether you have the app or not doesn't matter, I believe you still had the service enabled. It doesn't hurt to try. http://icloud.com, click Find my iPhone after you sign in.

    I'm using the "Find my IPhone" app on my iPad and it can't even locate the iPad I'm using, not to mention the iPhone I'm looking for. They are both listed as devises, it just says they're both offline, which I know is wrong. I'm on a WiFi network and location services are turned on. Ideas?
