You call apple and give them the serial number on the phone to find its rightful owner. You could also take it to an AT&T store so that they can find the rightful owner.

HT201472 What if I found my iPhone and it has bad imei

What if I found my iPhone and it has bad imei I want to clear it my iPhone was off when I set it as lost mode

if it has a bad imei there is no way to clear it, you can attempt to call your carrier if you havent already done so to see if there is a way to confirm that the imei you have is the correct one to get it of the black list but this is an attempt not sure if they can do it

I found an ipod and it has a password on it and im trying to get into the ipod to possibly find out who it belongs to. can anyone help me?

so found this ipod today on the ground near my grandmothers friends house. It has a password on it and i am not sure how to get into it to possibly see if i can find out who it belongs to. any ideas how to even get passed the password?

Call the police. Give them the device's serial number which is etched on the back. If it's been reported lost with a serial number they can then return it to the owner. If not then you are the proud new owner of an iPod Touch.

Hello there, JamesCody518.
The following Knowledge Base article should provide helpful steps to determine a resolution for your issue:
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389
Specifically:
Authorize using the correct account name
The items you are trying to play might have been purchased using a different iTunes Store account. To determine which account was used to purchase an item, follow these steps:
Select a purchased song in your library and choose File > Get Info.
Click the Summary tab. Note the Account Name that appears in the list. This is the account name (Apple ID) you will need to use when authorizing your computer to play this purchase.
Note: The account name that appears is the one you used when purchasing the item and does not change if the account name (Apple ID) changes.
If you've authorized the Apple ID that is shown in the Summary tab, you can check the purchase history for that Apple ID from Store > View My Account. If your purchase history does not reflect the purchase of the items in your iTunes library, consider any other Apple ID you may have created, and authorize the computer for your additional Apple ID.
If you forgot the password to one of your accounts, you can recover it using Apple's password-recovery website.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro D.

Hello, I found an iPhone and i want to return it.

Hello, I found an iPhone and i want to return it. How can I contact the owner of which is your ?
The model of iPhone is 5 and he has restored. I want to contact owner via email or phone, all I could see is only hidden iCloud account.
Thanks.

The problem is that my country is not an Apple Store or an Apple representative only authorized resellers who do not have what I do, and if i go to the police, likely to stay with them so no chance. I thought i may talk directly with the owner to find a way to return it

I found an iphone and this is american and I want to put it a mexican chip, what can i do to fix it?

I found an iphone and I don't put it a maxican chip, what can i do to fix it?, I went to place where fix it or unlock the iphone but they told me that i need a microsim or something like that. Can i change the IMEI in the company where i want the chip or the iphone doesn't have solucion?

Only the original phone company or carrier that the phone was on contract with and locked to can unlock this phone for you, so basically there is nothing you can do. You won't be able to use the phone, unless you know the original carrier. Then unless you have a current contract or have been a previous customer, they won't consider unlocking the phone for you anyway, so nothing you can do.

I am signed in to my wifes iphone and it has been stolen. Tried tracking it with find my iphone, but it doesn't show up in my device.

I am signed in to my wifes iphone and it has been stolen. Tried tracking it with find my iphone, but it doesn't show up in my devices. She doesn't have a separate id. Any ideas why or what I could do to make it would be greatly appreciated.

It was still turned on, I am tracking with life360, but apple's tracking is more accurate. I just wondered why the phone doesn't show up in my devices on iCloud if I am signed in on it with my apple id. Thanks

You can look for it.
If you find it, you will have it back.
If you had find my iphone activated on the iphone BEFORE it was lost, then you may be able to track it.

We were going by your post. 'What can i do to use this phone"...
No offense intended, it's just that we see thousands of posts where people have different reasons for trying to use a stolen or lost device.

Try harder. It is useless to you.

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

HT2589 after my last update my iphone and ipad has an old apple id email address which I cannot change, but itunes has the right id. How do I fix this problem

After my last update mu iphone and ipad has an deleted apple id, but my itunes have the new on and I cannot change it on my devices. Any help would be appreciated.

If it's an old account which you'd updated with a new email address then try logging out of it on the iPad (and iPhone) by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad (and iPhone). If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

If i found a iphone and it has a password what do i do?
