Icloud & Find my iphone - Stolen Phone Content

Hi,
I've been looking without success for an answer on my query.
Someone has stolen my iphone 4S today, I had findmyiphone app running as per default settings and logged on to http://www.icloud.com/find and it said Device offline.
The phone is turned off as we've been trying to ring it so being offline on http://www.icloud.com/find is understandable.  I was able to use the Lock function and then the Wipe function on the website however I was then told that the Wipe function means I wouldnt be able to then locate the phone with an internet signal because the wipe would occur.
I then tried to undo the wipe and selected the cross in the Device menu, it wasnt very clear it was going to delete the device but it did.
My http://www.icloud.com/find link now says No Devices.  Apple are now closed and I'll have to wait until Monday to call them, but in the mean time is there anyway to cancel the wipe and restore the device to http://www.icloud.com/find so I can monitor it?  Is this something Apple will be able to help me with Monday?
Thank you in advance.

    No app on the iPhone is required.                           
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or continue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the device and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    iCloud: Erase your device
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    - 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 unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

    I have an IPhone 4, and I wanted to reset it, but couldn't do it via computer because the "find my IPhone" was turned on. So I went to ICloud > Find My IPhone and just erased my phone from there. The was acting weird but I finally got to a black screen with the spinning circle. And it won't advance. I can't just hold the sleep button and home button down because my sleep button is broken! Any help? I have reset my phone before.

    The Apple warranty does not cover accidental damage like loosing it. Did you opurchase any insurance

    The chance is slim to none that you will get it back

  • If I lost my Iphone, but when I tried to locate with ICloud - find my Iphone it's offline. I lost in another country  which means that there is no Internet connection on my phone. Is there any chance to find?

    If I lost my Iphone, but when I tried to locate with ICloud - find my Iphone it's offline. I lost in another country  which means that there is no Internet connection on my phone. Is there any chance to find?

    In order for a lost iPhone to be located you have to have set 'Find My iPhone' up on it before losing it, and it has to be on, not wiped, and able to connect to a network (how else could it transmit its location) - if any of these conditions is not true then locating it is not possible. You can't use the serial number or IMEI number to locate a phone: the former is only useful to identify it as yours if it turns up, and the latter can be used by most service providers to block it, rendering it useless and preventing anyone from spending your credit.

  • I activated my ipad, used iCloud & Find my iphone with Apple ID named: A@.... But now I've changed address of Apple ID from A@... to the new one: B@... Which Apple ID will be asked to re-activate 7.0.4 ipad - A or B?

    Hello everybody!
    I'm using ipad mini and the iOS is 7.0.4. I used an Apple ID (called: A), and I activated my ipad, used iCloud & Find my iphone with this A account. But now I've changed address of Apple ID from A@.... to the new one: B@.... (just changed email address of Apple ID, not create a new ID), and then I signed out iCloud, old Apple ID, etc... on my ipad and signed in with new id B@.... Everythings seem OK, I can sign in/out iCould, turn on/turn off Find my iphone as well with the new one (B@...)
    But I still have a question (and still confusing with it): What will happend when I restored my ipad? I mean my iOS is 7, so which Apple ID will be asked to re-activate my ipad after I restore it, old id A@.... (this one cannot be used now) or the new one B@...., please?
    Thank you very much for your helpful informations!

    If you've succesfully changed the ID for iCloud and Find my phone, it will be your new ID you use if you need to restore it.

  • I have accidently removed my missing ipod form the icloud Find My Iphone, is there any way to retrieve it and locate it?, I have accidently removed my missing ipod form the icloud Find My Iphone, is there any way to retrieve it and locate it?

    My Ipod touch was lost at school a few days ago, and when I went to icloud, i located and found where the person who has my ipod lives. The cops were called so they could retrieve it, but as to have proof i have none, because i have accidently removed my ipod touch from icloud Find My iPhone. I am now wondering if there's any way to retrieve the device back onto icloud if it was once on there. I can't locate it now and show the proof, is there any other way to locate your ipod touch or to restore it back onto icloud?

    Your proof is your receipt.
    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with your bank or any savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    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 should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • My phone was stolen, I have moved it in lost mode,but I can see that whoever has it,is changing phone name and can use it until I activate lost mode again.Can I do it permanently? How can I cancel ICloud back for the stolen phone,it blocks Cloud memory?

    My phone was stolen, I have moved it in lost mode,but I can see that whoever has it,is changing phone name and can use it until I activate lost mode again.Can I do it permanently? How can I cancel ICloud back for the stolen phone, as I cannot delete the stolen phone backup (says that backup is being in use) and this is keeping memory occupied in the Cloud and I cannot back-up the other devices.

  • TS4006 need to add another device to iCloud (find my iPhone)?

    Hi
    Please could you tell me how to add another device to icloud -  find my iphone?
    Shelby

    To add a device to Find my iPhone, just set up iCloud in your iPhone, Mac, iPad or iPod. To set up it in an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad, update it to iOS 5 and configure it in Setup Assistant. To set up it in a Mac, update it to OS X 10.7.2 or later and configure it in Setup Assistant or System Preferences

  • Find my iphone - multiple phones with same name

    We want to have all company iphones on 1 icloud account for find my iphone.  I setup 3 so far and didn't realize that the phone's were all named the same.  So, they all show up on the map as "Company's iPhone".  One has disappeared and I'm not sure it it's one of the 3 I setup with that account.  Is there any way to tell the phone number associated with the phones on my icloud account?

    tthe only way to tell them apart would be to change the names of the phones you still have Settings>General>About>Name) while the are sing into your account.  Unfortunately, if the oler phones don't have service, you won't be able to do this.

  • Need help with icloud, FIND MY IPHONE, google maps

    I pull up icloud on my computer, see all my iphones that are on listed but when I go to test the FIND MY IPHONE, all I see is the iphone I chose and a "CAN'T SHOW LOCATION, GOOGLE MAPS IS NOT AVAILABLE".  How do I make it available?  I have google earth downloaded on my notebook and it works on my desktop computer but not on my laptop.  I have hit "display content" on the alert bar but I get nothing.

    I had the same problem when I used Firefox as my browser; problem went away when I used IE instead.

  • Find My iPhone Stolen/What to Do?

    My iPhone 4 was stolen and according to Find My IPhone, the thief turned on the phone and quickly shut it off. I have a Pending Erase on it but got a new phone. If the stolen phone is turned back on, will Find my Iphone find it?

    It should. There is a bug in iOS that can disable Find-My-iPhone, but it won't work if the phone was passcode locked.  In any case, activation lock is still there, so the phone will be useless if reset or restored.

  • HT201365 iOS 7 iCloud "Find my iPhone"

    In Settings>iCloud it says I'm using the Apple ID c******@y***l.com, which was my old apple ID and the email had been transfered to another account. I can not disable Find My iPhone from that account because it always tells me incorrect password, because the account no longer exists. If I reset my phone, iOS 7 just re-adds the Find My iPhone account info. I try using the password from the current account and it still tells my my AppleID/Password is incorrect - which obviously it is since it no longer exists. Any ideas on how to solve this? (I had this problem during the beta and somehow someone helped me fix it but I forgot how, and I'm clueless right now.

    Try going to Settings>iCloud and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your data will still be in iCloud).  Then see if Find My iPhone will accept your password, allowing you to disable it and sign back into your iCloud account in Settings>iCloud.

  • Problems with 'Find My iPhone' & Making Phone Calls

    Find my iPhone was installed in my iPhone 4 and I would like to ask a few questions as stated below:
    1. When I lost my iPhone, can I find where my iPhone is? My wifi option is usually turned off to save battery and the cellular data is also turned off as the Internet package in my country is not cheap.
    2. When I try to access find my iPhone on a pc with the conditions above, my iPhone cannot be located. Does it related to the settings in 'Mail, Contacts and Calendars'? The  Find My iPhone option is on in the iCloud tab and in the 'Fetch New Data' tab, 'push' is on and fetch 'manually'.
    3. Sometimes, when I go to certain areas, I can't make a phone call or receive messages as well. I try to restart my iPhone but it doesn't seemed functioning at all. I tried to type *#06# several times in the phone interface, but it didn't show me anything. After a time, I figured out that after I turned on  and off 'cellular data' then only it returned to normal condition. The imei number also will pop out a few times as I typed in the phone interface several times.

    I usually use wifi when I am at home or even out. If I cannot track where my iPhone is, then what use of Find My iPhone invented for? And also the built in Assisted GPS function for the only uses of offline navigation and location service ONLY when with Internet access. Unlike the other phones such as GalaxySII, it can be real-time tracked. Although Apple has many restrictions, but it should improve the safety services.
    iPhone or iPad, with or without cellular data or even wifi sometimes, is always full with fun and functionable. I can deal with my works with many useful apps such as quick office, pages etc. When I am bored, oops, I'm sorry, I won't be bored - I can spend my time with a thousand types of games or watching a series of movies/ dramas downloaded. With iDevices, I will not be living in a dull and meaningless world.
