If I lock my lost ipad, will I still be able to locate it using "find my ipad" app?
And how do I do a remote backup from icloud before I wipe it?

If you don't know your lost/stolen iPad's serial number, use the instructions below. The S/N is also on the iPad's box.

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.

I've lost my iPod Touch. Should I erase everything off of it? And if I do, would I still be able to locate it with 'Find my iPhone' app?
If you want to track it, then put it in Lost Mode. If you erase it then you can't track it.

If I do not have a credit card binded to my Apple ID, will I still be able to redeem and use iTunes gift cards?
How did you create the account ? Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
If you didn't use those instructions then you will need to enter card details (you should be able to remove them after entering them), or create a new account (and use the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating it).
Creating an account with 'none' :

I have purchased a film but when space becomes unavailable I will delete it to make room for other things but I still want it in case I want to watch it in the future, will i still be able to download it without purchasing it again, will it be available in iCloud and still in my library if I delete it?
Whether you can re-download films depends upon what country that you are in - they can't be re-downloaded in all countries, and even where they can, not all film studios have agreed to it (and there is no guarantee that a film will remain in the store for re-downloading in the future). You are better off copying it to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases so that you can take a backup of it before deleting it from your iPad, rather than relying on being able to re-download it in the future.

I am currently using an ipad overseas with the hope that I can backup photos to icloud in case I lose the camera and ipad. I don´t have another mac device but could use my girlfriends when I get home. Would it be possible to access my photos on her macbook using my icloud?
ThanksWelcome to the Apple community.
Assuming you are logged into your iCloud account and have enabled photo stream on your device, then any photos you take on your iPad will be added to photo stream and can be shared to any device that is logged into the same iCloud account.
If while away, you lose your iPad, then upon your return you would need to log into your iCloud account on your girlfriend's computer and enable photostream, by doing this you would then be able to download all the photos you added to photo stream whilst you were away. -
my son has given his old iPad to my wife. if I delete his iCloud account from her iPad. Can he later, in a month, use that account on a new iPad. Or does the data in the cloud disappear if it is not linked/synced with a device?
Deleting the account from a device does not delete the account or its contents. He will be able to use it later.

I want to share the library from my friend itunes to my computer but I am not using a computer to share I am using an iPad 2. Am I still going to be able to transfer the library from the iPad to my computer
Hi ashleymartinsmith!
I have an article for you that may help you understand Home Sharing a little better:
Understanding Home Sharing
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3819
Home Sharing in iTunes is designed to let you easily share your iTunes media libraries between up to five computers in your household. You can also use Home Sharing to play your iTunes content on your iOS devices and Apple TV (2nd generation) if they are connected to your home Wi-Fi network.
The important thing to note here is that all connected devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network for Home Sharing to be functional. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

Hi Team, I have lost my iphone 5c and at the time it was off due to battery. Up to now I haven't been able to locate it using Find my iphone app... Please help me with ideas.
Sorry, there is no magic way to find it. You will need to search for it, as you would with any other object.
