I replaced my iPhone 5 with an LG F6 phone and now I cannot receive text messages from my friends with iPhones. Can somebody please tell me where to go to turn off the "Find your phone" feature and what ever else I need to turn off to accomplish this objective? Thank you.
Isotope JoeFind My iPhone has nothing to do with receiving or not receiving text messages.
What you should have done is turn off iMessage prior to handing over the device.

After recently changing my email address on my iphone 4, am now having problems signing into the apps using my apple id....I have the apps still showing the old email address...and the password has not changed....can anyone tell me how to fix this? Thank you in advance...
You've updated your iTunes account to have your new email address on it - you might need to log out of your account by tapping on it at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in with the updated version of your account so as to 'refresh' the account on it.

HT1688 my phone wasstolen it has the find my phone app but its turned off
My phone was stolen i have the app to find it but its not on and i'm scared he'll ditch it if the cops get involved. He's kinda a new person in my life but he did me dirty. stole 120 dollars. the guitar from blink 182 and some other little things. I need the proof so I need to find that phone . any advice you can give me?
If you failed to enable Find My iPhone in the Settings of the iPhone, or if it is turned off, or if the battery is dead, or if your "new person in your life" restored the phone, there is no way of finding the phone. I trust this will not be a long relationship you are forging.

Please help!
I dont know how the email address doesnt exist and how it can still be an apple id but not let my access my purchases or update old appplications
thanks,
Kiah.Hey Chris, thanks for your reply.
The problem is that i have 2 apple Id's now and i used on to purchase my macbook pro a few years back and then i created a new one for my new macbook.. i was trying to update my iphoto and imovie but it kept saying i couldnt update it as it was purchased under a different id, and seeing though i cant get into my old account i cant update what i need to. i know the password for the old one as my brother still uses it but it wont work now as hotmail says the email doesnt exist.
in saying that i dont think i can get into the old account and change the email address -
Please help!!!
Hi, I've just gone into the settings and my current email is on there, but it still keeps coming up with my old email when I go to update my apps :( any other ideas?

Lost my phone, have find my phone app but battery is dead
Is there a way to see the last transmission from the phone. I then would know if it was me who used it last.
thx for replyg Chris. Do u mean even if the "thief" tries to send it in to an Apple store to "restore as new", it cant be done and the device is rendered useless to the "thief"?

I have my son's iPhone registered on my Find my Phone app. but it's showing his
phone to be in a different location than it is - I know as I've just called him at his friends
house on the landline but its showing him to be about 1/4 of a mile away from where he
is, does anyone know that would be please (he had his iPhone on him)? ThanksI frequently find the pin to be a little off. For example, a device in the east end of my house may be located at the west end.

I'm trying to update my iphone 4 and in order to compelte the restore backup from itunes i need to turn off the 'find my iphone' but i cant get passed the restore backup stage - what should i do?
Hi beckiewinter!
I have some information for you that may help you understand your iPhone's Activation Lock more thoroughly:
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
So in order to update your iPhone, you may need to turn off Find My iPhone. This can be done through the iCloud settings, and more information on those settings can be found right here:
iCloud - iPhone User Guide

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

I changed my ICloud account ID but my new phone won't let me change it unless I put in my old password and turn off the find my phone feature. But the phone will not recognize my old password. Can someone help me?
New iPhones don't come setup with an Apple ID/Password. What you're experiencing is called Activation Lock, & unless you know the original Apple ID/Password that was originally used to first activate this phone, you won't be able to reactivate it.
You can login to iCloud.com, from any computer, use Find My Phone to locate & erase the phone. But, you'll still need to know the original Apple ID/Password to reactivate it. -
