I4 phone stolen want to trace it  got answers

can I locate a stolen I-4 phone by its serial number or trace it somehow by the software inside phone and from past wifi use through safari, I'm not sure whether the location software was activated before the theft

You cannot.
Only if you had find my iphone activated on the iphone itself before it went missing.

    i want to trace my iphone 4 it is stolen how should i   plss help

    You'll need at least one device running iOS5 to do that, and "Find my iPhone" had to be installed on your iPhone 4 before your phone got stolen. See this article for more info:

    You should call Apple Support and give them your Apple ID so that they can verify how many photos you actually do have backed up in iCloud...
    Also, are you able to do an iTunes backup at all? Because that would save all of the photos and allow you to get them onto the new device.
    Apple Support number is
    1-800-694-7466

    Hey I got my phone stolen yesterday, but it was dead for 24 hours before i checked find my phone so it says offline. I called verizon suspended my service and they said if the person tried to sell it back, or put their number on it, it will get flagged. I was just wondering if i should reinstate my service and try and wait for it to turn back on and then go get it because you need internet for it to track and with the suspended service, it can only track if connected to wifi, but they wont get past my password.

    Where exactly did you buy the "new iPhone "

  • I need to delete an app from my phones history. I want no trace of this app on my phones or iPad or history. How do I do this?

    i need to delete an app from my phone History. I want no trace of this App on my phone or iPad or my history! How do I do this? 

    Hey sam@111,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you wish to delete an application from your iOS devices. To do so, see the following:
    How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5772
    Apps
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Tap and hold the app you want to delete.
    The apps will begin to jiggle.
    Tap the X on the app.
    Afterwards, you can choose to hide the purchase from your purchase history:
    iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases

    Thanks,

  • I have got an 4s phone and want to import my notes from my old 3G phone; does anybody has an idea how this can be done?

    i have got an 4s phone and want to import my notes from my old 3G phone; does anybody has an idea how this can be done?

    If you have a Mac, I know you can sync your notes with the Mail application using iTunes by going to the Info tab when you clikc on your iPhone under Devices. Other than that, you may just need to email the notes to yourself since the 3G cannot use iCloud to transfer them.

  • I just got got a new phone and want to put my music and pictures on it from my computer.  My music is in in itunes and when I sync my phone the music does not come over. What's going on?

    I just got got a new phone and want to put my music and pictures on it from my computer.  My music is in in itunes and when I sync my phone the music does not come over. What's going on?  I'm using itunes ver.11.0.5.5

    Hi, gcmar.
    I would double check to make sure that you have selected the options for syncing.  Look over the article below to make sure you have the items that you want selected to sync over.

  • HT1349 I have an i-pad and have just got an i-phone but want 2 use a different I cloud? I've set up new email account and apple ID, but I can't change the I-cloud settings, can u help PLS??

    I have an i-pad and have just got an i-phone but want 2 use a different I cloud? I've set up new email account and apple ID, but I can't change the I-cloud settings, can u help PLS??

    The procedure is Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at>Add another email address. The email address has to be a valid working email address, obviously. Apple should verify the email address and you have to go to the inbox of that email account, read the verification email from Apple and follow the inductions in the email in order to complete the verification. Then you go back to the settings, uncheck your email address and check the new email address to be used as the contact email address.

  • HT201269 Got my phone stolen how do I get my photos back on a new device

    Got my I phone stolen how do I get my photos back on a new device

    If you have a back up on iTunes or iCloud you would restore from the back up to another device as shown in the article below:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    If you used iCloud photostream this could contain some photos so to retrieve these on another device you:
    - go to settings>icloud
    - sign into the icloud account you used on your old iPhone
    - turn photostream on

    TechCrunch posted a solution today that applies to this problem, I think.
    Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
    Click your old iPhone and "unregister" it.

  • My husband and I have upgraded our phones (iPhone 4s and iPhone 5) to the iPhone 5s.  We have given 2 of our kids the "old" phones and want to set them up as an iPod touch.  Both kids have email and need to be able to text (iMessage).

    My husband and I have upgraded our phones (iPhone 4s and iPhone 5) to the iPhone 5s.  We have given 2 of our kids the "old" phones and want to set them up as an iPod touch.  Both kids have email and need to be able to text (iMessage).
    I have read multiple posts on how to do this and I am still confused.
    Apple ID/ICoud:
    We want to be able to monitor what they do, but do not want their devices linked to our emails/contacts/etc...  Each kid has their own email account.  So, from what I have read the best way to do this is to use our family Apple ID, but set them up with a separate iCloud account?  Is this correct?
    Reset/Restore/DFU:
    To start fresh we have done multiple factory resets.  I did one that someone said was a DFU and a plan ol' factory reset, etc...  Not sure the difference.  However, when I do that I get the "hello" screen and am able to start setting the phone up anew.  However, when I go to set the phone up as an iPod I end with the same result.
    So, here is what I am doing (tell me what I am doing wrong):
    Hello Screen
    Asks me to select language and selecting:  English
    Select Your Country or Region:  United States
    Choose a Wi-Fi Network:  select my home wi-fi network
    Enter password:  entered my home wi-fi network password
    Activiate iPhone - wants me to enter Apple ID and Passwordsays that this iphone is currently linked to an Apple ID (k*******@gmail.com).  Sign in with the Apple ID that was used to set up this iPhone.
    Location Services - I have enabled location services
    Set Up iPhone
    Set Up as New iPhone
    Apple ID
    Options are to sign in with your Apple ID or Create a Free Apple ID
    Or I could "skip this step"
    I signed in with my Apple ID
    Terms and Conditions - Agree
    iCloud - I can select either to use iCloud or Don't Use iCloud - I selected use iCloud
    Find My iPhone - I can select either to use find my iPhone or to not - I selected use find my iphone
    Once I do this it says iMessage and FaceTime and shows the following:
    my email
    my other child's cell phone number
    and my husband's work phone number
    This is where things do not make sense.  I only want the phone set up with the current child's email address.  Where did I go wrong?

    There are a number of Apple services: iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud, Game center, Find My iPad, etc.
    Now, to share apps, music and books you need to have the same Apple ID:
    iPad's Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID > Your purchasing Apple ID.
    For the other service, your wife should have her own Apple ID.
    All she needs is a valid e-mail address, apply Apple ID below:

    Hello there MizzouTrojan,
    If I understand correctly you want all 6 devices to have access to a single calendar that each device gets notifications for and can edit. You can do that with an private iCloud shared calendar. First sign into www.icloud.com and use these steps from the following article to share a calendar:
    iCloud: Share a calendar with others
    Share a calendar privately
    Click the Share button to the right of the calendar name in the sidebar, then select Private Calendar.
    Note:    You can also share the same calendar publicly. For instructions, see the next task, “Share a calendar publicly.” 
    Type the invitee’s email address in the Add Person field and press Return.
    Click the pop-up menu with the invitee’s name and choose access privileges (View & Edit or View Only). 
    For each person you want to share the calendar with, repeat steps 2 and 3.
    When you’ve invited everyone and set their privileges, click OK.
    Invitation emails are sent from your iCloud email address to the participants you specified.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling
