I used find my iphone yesterday (my daughters iphone6)
I used the "Find my Iphone" app (have been using to keep track of my daughter) and I check her frequent locations as well...so far in the frequent locations until last week they had all been pretty accurate but there is one location that puts her not even close to where she is suppose to be and questioning her about it she says it must be wrong because she was never there...so since then I have randomly been checking her location with the find my iphone app and yesterday i checked it several times within a 4 hr period and is had her where she was suppose to be but last night I checked her frequent locations and 2 hrs out of the 4 it has her at a completely different location (not even close to where it had registered her on the app does anyone know why or what could make this happen?
If you had your number forwarded to another cell phone would it confuse the tracking system....just a random thought because it doesnt make sense to me how it could have different readings like that...Greatly appreciate any help!
If you don't have an actual answer or anything to say that could be helpful why are you bothering to respond...are u really that bored? And just to clarify lets say I'm at work (great signal strength) and for 45 days straight I get an almost to the point exact location but then on the 46th day of being in the same place as the last 45 days it has my location on the other side of town, thats definitely less than perfect and my phone which right now has over 125 frequent locations all over town and every one of them has been accurate not to the point but within comfortable range so I just kind of wanted to make sure its not the phone or location services before I get on her case I dont expect a 100% yes or no answer just wanted to know if anyone else has had any experiences like this with their phone. Would love some help but only from someone who actually wants to help Please & Thank you!!

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. -

Why don't you sign into www.icloud.com on your computer and locate both iPad and iPhone.

There was a problem putting angel’s iPhone into Lost Mode.
Your iPhone was not put into Lost Mode because of an unexpected error. Try enabling Lost Mode again.
and i also tried reporting it but it wasnt on "my product". so i need to type the serial number and i dont know what it is. -
Tried using Find My iPhone and it's offline. It (Find my iPhone) was set up. What do I do now? Do I report it stolen? What is the best way in getting back my iPhone if any? Thank you in advance.
Find My iPhone is good for misplaced iPhone but not good for thief and it was never meant to be.
You chance of getting it back is very small.
There are a few things you can try.
Try remote lock/wipe your iPhone through Find My iPhone.
https://www.icloud.com
You can report to the police, cell carrier (expensive cell charges for international calls, roaming etc)
Change all the passwords used in iPhone: Apple ID, E-mail, Bank Account ....

Can you use find my iPhone with iPad and iPhone and the same icloud account for both?
I have an iPhone and iPad. I use find my iPhone for both. If I use the same icloud account for both, how do I separate them on the map, or if I lose one and want to remote wipe the lost one but not the one in my possession?
It will list each device separately, I even have two macs along with my ipad listed

My iphone was stolen, I used find my iphone app, and found that it was offline, however when tried locking mode option, I pressed remove device by mistake. Is there any way I can restore the iphone to my icloud/ apple Id again? No manual backup on laptop
The phone will automatically re-appear when it connects to the Internet. However, don't get your hopes up, as thieves know this & will make sure your phone never re-connects so you can locate it.

How would i use 'find my iphone' to locate my husband's ipad?
My husband and i would like to be able to find each other's device, (iphone 4 and ipad) by using 'find my iphone'. We frequently lose each other.
How would we set that up?
Thanks!On both devices, go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account (if you haven't already done so), then turn on Find My iPhone. After doing so, you can track devices by signing in with the iCloud ID that the device you are trying to track is using, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f2442. You can do this from a computer by going to icloud.com, or from your iOS device by downloading the free Find My iPhone app from the App store.

We have two iphones and only one ipad - no mac. We want to be able to use "find my iphone" for both phones. How do we get the ipad to accept two iphone accounts? icloud is enabled on all three devices.
Also, be aware of the following:
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. Something as small as an iPod/iPhone should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries. -
How do I get back my iPod if I can't use find my iphone and no internet on it?
I recently lost my iPod and I went back to go find it and it was gone, I filed a report on it being lost then stolen. The thing is I cant use Find my iPhone because I didn't have it on at the time. Also I reset my iPod because there was to much stuff on it. I never connected it to the wifi after i reset it. Please help.
I do have my serial number!You did all you could. The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours IF it is recovered. Make sure you change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod.

How am I supposed to use Find My iPhone?
I do not understand how you are supposed to use Find My iPhone, FROM my iPhone.. it doesn't make sense to me.
Shouldn't there be a Find My iPhone app on the Macbook?
Also I have not recieved a verification email for my iCloud Apple ID setup.
It keeps telling me to "Check Email" yet nothing is there...
If you could help me with anything, that would be great.
Thanks..you use www.icloud.com to serach for your devices from a mac or any pc via webbrowser.
or the find my iphone.app to search for your device from your second device/ a friends device.
If a mac runs 10.7.2 it will also be searchable if "find my Mac" is activated in icloud preference pane.
Again, you use any Internet-Cafe or a second PC/Mac to seach your lost devices or Macs. -
I have remote locked my mac using find my iPhone app via my iPad - I am unable to enter the unlock code as the mac keyboard won't pair with the mac - I guess that will teach me for playing...any ideas?
Thought so - ace - find my phone really needs an unlock function. - another £40...

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.

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. -
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.
