if i lost my iphone, could it still be usable by others who found it?

First you ask if somebody who has found an iPhone can use it.
Now you want to know how to get past the lock code?

I have lost my iphone, can i still find out my IMEI number via Apple ID or iTunes(the lastest version)?

If you backed up your phone to your computer using iTunes, go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and hover your mouse over the name of your backup on the Backups list. If would also be on your box if you still have it.

I recently thought I lost my iPhone and I erased it but now that I found it. I cannot get the this iPhone message is lost please call ********* I am out of the country my laptop is at home. I cannot access I tune. How do I fix this. I need to get it back on so I can face time with my family. The phone says 3G but it keeps saying on list mode. I signed on icloud and removed it from the account and nothing. Please help!

If you removed the device from your iCloud account rather than using the "Stop Lost Mode" option, then you will most certainly need to restore the iPhone, and that will require a computer running iTunes.

Are you trying to downgrade the iOS version - this isn't supported and gives error 1015.
1015 also occrs if the phone was EVER jailbroken or hacked in any way. In that case, SOL.

HT5824 I lost my iPhone and set it to erase. I just found it and wanted to know how to cancel the erase command

I lost my phone and set it to erase. Now I have found it. How do i cancel the erase function?

Here’s my question. My laptop is broken and I had a crack in my iPhone screen. Prior to sending it in to repair I backed up using iCloud and before restoring my phone to factory settings decided to do the software update. Half way through the update it asked me to connect to iTunes. So here’s were it gets complicated…
My charger is also broken, so in my panic at the stranger fixing my phone seeing my personal stuff I used the erase everything on the find my iPhone app, thinking iCloud had my back. It was still asking to be connected to iTunes so my friend have me their laptop nod charger (automatic sync not turned on) I plugged it in, the command went away and I sent my phone to be repaired.
It came back all shiny and new, but iCloud back up disppeared along with four years of photos, videos, etc etc. I contacted apple who had engineers go through their servers to find nothing from my iPhone backed up. I searched my friends laptop for music I have bought and even plugged the phone into their laptop but comes up with their phones name and their last back up. I have restored from iCloud and set up as a new phone.
I am worried my friend will have my information from my iPhone. Is it possible and if not has it just been erased forever?
sorry not really an answer but similar sort of question

Just restored my iPhone, and I still have 800mb of "Other"

Hi,
I just did a restore on my iPhone 4s, which supposedly is supposed to eliminate space used by the "Other" category. However, I still have 821mb used. As I have an 8gb hard drive, this space is fairly valuable since I like to store my music on my phone. How do I completely elminate this "other" category?

Hold on. If "Other" is app data, then why isn't that amount listed under Apps in the device storage graph in iTunes?
Aside: Apple really needs to list Mail and Messages in General > Usage

The iPhone iPhone could not be restored. The device cannot be found.

Hello,
        Just tried to update software on my Iphone4 and it failed now whenever I try and restore it
        It comes up with this message "The Iphone iphone could not be restored.The device cannot be found"
        Ive had a look on the web but cannot find any HELP!!
        If you can help me, a few nudges in the right direction would be very well recieved

Ok,
       The Phone is now restoring, looked everywhere for an answer, tried the holding down of the home/standby
        buttons, started the recovery ,extracted the software, then it would say "the iphone iphone could not be                restored .The device could not be found" done this about 4 times
       The solution!!! gave it to a friend who put it on his PC (I have an Imac) and he reset it, then plugged back            into Mac and it restored it back to the last restore
       one point i did notice you have to take your pin off, it said something like insert pin free sim
       Hope this helps somebody

Could you guys help me to sign out this icloud's ID and game center's ID from that phone for me, or anyone knows how to do this, please mail back to me. Id : "[email protected]" Thanks.

As far as I know you can't delete the primary email address for an iCloud account. It's assigned when the account is created. But your neighbor wouldn't have been able to get into your iCloud account without your Apple ID and password. Are you sure the account wasn't still on your phone when you gave it to him?
You could migrate a copy of your data to a new iCloud account but I would still be concerned that someone else was using my old account, which presumably still has your data in it.
I'm fairly certain that you're going to have to have iCloud support help you sort this one out as they may have the ability to make changes to an existing account that users can't. Make an appointment with the genius bar at a nearby Apple store and have them take a look at it. If necessary, they should be able to contact iCloud support for you.

Dear sir I have 2 iPhones , I downloaded find my iphone and find out there is another iPhone on my Apple ID and in another location in same city Erbil which I live and I tried to use lost mode but it is still not stopped

It could be that someone has accessed your AppleID/iCloud account with out authorization. Or it could be that you forgot to remove find my iPhone form a phone that your previously owned.
Change your Apple ID password.

I LOST MY IPHONE 5S, still trackable and has an ORANGE LOCK SYMBOL.

Hi people, NEED URGENT HELP!
Firstly, I have to say this information : I live in Indonesia and I cannot count on Indonesian police here. However, here, in MOST CASES you can solve everything with money.
Two days ago I lost my Iphone 5s at a KTV place at 1 am, i know i was so stupid. It was on low-batt when I left it.
I think one of the waiter/waitress took it and brought it home and they would sell it to second-hand shop. Of course, I checked back and nobody would give me back my Iphone.
I put the FIND MY IPHONE on and Activation Lock ( the orange lock symbol ). I searched it on ICLOUD.COM/#FIND and it was online. I called it and whoever found it did not pick it up and I thought I should put it in lost mode and play sound. Not far from the KTV, at a huge market and I got emails. Sound was played several times on my phone and it went offline.
I almost lost hope, but the phone still have an orange lock sign and I had a passcode, finger print lock, and of course nobody knows my Apple ID.
At 9 am the next day, it was trackable again and I played two sounds (the sound from Find My Iphone) and I can see the phone is in 10 % battery. It went offline, i guess he/she was shocked because of the sound. At 5 pm I got email again, it was moved to a place also not far from there.
My parents went to the police station near the MARKET area (the market is huge, but mostly food and clothes. Very few electronic shop) and asked the head of police if they could help me find it and bought it back even ( because they'd rather throw it away than telling the truth). The police said he would help and asked several shops that sell second handphone the next day (which is today) because when my parents arrived, all the shops are already closed.
I am still tracking this Iphone because I think anybody could not sell a phone without a charger, without the passcode, and without my Apple ID. And the most relieving thing is the LOCK symbol in the Iphone. I think the lock symbol means that the person still can't jailbreak it and they can't sell it.
I know they can move it when it was offline, but i will still track them when they "SOMETIME LATER" put it online again.
What do you think? Does the LOCK symbol in my Iphone means that whoever he/she was can't use or access the phone or jailbreak it? Is there any chance that I can find this Iphone? And also, my Iphone's serial number has been registered in Apple Support. And it was still under MY NAME the last time it went offline.

I want to remove all my data, but also still want to find this Iphone 5s ( because it is still locked and under my name ) using the head police help ( which has been promised reward for finding it, because that's just how Indonesia works -_- ) until tonight, if it ever does appear online again. I just got it two weeks ago and that night I was clumsy (world cup + KTV + beers) and I desperately want to get it back if i could.
Everyone who has this problem should know that Icloud.com is very useful because :
1. I literally can access all my contacts, reminders, and so on from the ICLOUD.com
2. They notify you when your phone is found to your email (Apple ID) with the address.
3. I can put a customized message to whoever found it and put a number to call for whoever found it (Lost Mode)
The only thing that bothers me :
The address sent to my email was not precise, only show the area, not the literal place.
The map satellite needs to be updated (from 2013 still) and can't be zoomed in to much.
-But, it still helps me to find it and narrow the area of search.
I only HOPE that this person has a heart to give it back. Thank you gail from maine

My macbook pro crashed after installing maverick. I lost all my photos however the iPhone iPhoto app still has these photos so how can i access the package contents to recover these photos?

My macbook pro crashed after installing maverick. I lost all my photos however the iPhone iPhoto app still has these photos so how can i access the package contents to recover these photos?

We'll need to know more to beable to help. Do you want to try to restore your photos from your iPhone to your Mac, or try to recover the photos from the old iPhoto Library on your Mac?
What is the situation of your Mac now? In hat way did it crash? A hardware problem with the drive? Does the system not start properly? Does iPhoto not launch? Do you still have the iPhoto Library on your mac or a backup, so we could try to rescue the photos there?
What versions of iPhoto are on your iPhone and your Mac?
however the iPhone iPhoto app still has these photos so how can i access the package contents to recover these photos?
On the iPhone you cannot access the "package contents" - IOS hides the file system from the users. To restore photos from your phone share all iPhoto photos to your Camera Roll, that are not already in the Camera Roll, and then connect the iPhone via USB and import the Camera Roll to iPhoto or Image Capture. Or use any of the other sharing methods described on thos manual page: see: Ways to share photos http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnk7d8f763e
To retrieve photos from a corruptrd iPhoto Library on your Mac we need to know the version number and more about the "crash" you experienced, the state of your mac, the system, the data. Please post back with more details.
