Iphone 4 problems with find my iphone

does anybody have a problem getting an iphone4 to show up as a device on "find my iphone"

I assume the iphone is logged into an icloud account and in Settings>icloud, you have turned on Find My iPhone.  Right?
On what device or computer are you searching for the iphone?  Using the Find My iPhone app or looking at icloud.com via a browser?

    How can I locate my lost iPhone 5 with find my iPhone app ? Plus someone tried accessing my apple I'd on FaceTime on an unknown number related to iPhone 5 is this who's got my phone and can I track a number ?

    If you activated the Find My iPhone service (in Settings>icloud), and if the device's batteries still have a charge, the device is not turned off and has not been reset and is connected to wifi, then you can try to track it.  Using a computer's browser, log into icloud.com and look at the Find My iPhone page.  On a device, invoke the Find My iPhone app (get it for free at the itunes app store) and log into the icloud account.  Note:  The Find My iPhone **app** does not turn on the service, you can only do that through Settings>icloud.
    If the device is listed as "offline", then one of the requirements listed above is not met (like being connected to wifi, or if the device was stolen and the thief reset it).

  • Problems with Find My iPhone/iPod

    It doesn't seem to able to locate the exact location of my iPod Touch. I have connected and disconnected wi-fi on my iPod Touch a few times to see if that helps. But it doesn't. MobileMe seems to say my iPod Touch is 10 blocks away from where I currently am when my iPod Touch is with me. This isn't just with the Find My iPhone/iPod tool though. The same goes with Google Earth app for the iPod Touch. They both tell me my iPod is 10 blocks away from where it currently stands. Does this problem only happen on some countries? I'm currently in New Zealand if that helps.

    I really didn't think about it that way. Yeah bits of it is true. But if wi-fi tracking isn't that accurate, shouldn't the location change each time it is reset? Because I have tried resetting and it always gives me the same address that it did before I reset the wi-fi connection on my iPod.
    There is one other thing that I forgot to mention. It showed me my exact location when I connected wi-fi internet through my cousin's internet connection a block away from where I lived.

  • Having problems with find my iphone map

    The basic map appears and but you cannot zoom in or out or change it hybrid or satellite map.  The three buttons bottom right corner are now a bright green.  I am using windows 8 and tried it on both explorer and google chrome.  It used to work great up until about two weeks ago.  Anyone know why this is happening on icloud.com?

    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.

  • 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.

  • Problems with Find my iPhone

    Why when i turn on the find my iphone the system always turn it off afterwards

    once you turn it on, its on.  It does not show up as an app running, but it is registered, and if you lose your device, you can trigger the find feature from another phone or computer.

  • HT204053 I have another Apple ID from when I originally set up this iPod, now I can't reset it as I am also set up with Find My iPhone which may have been doen by mistake I have been in contact with Apple itself and they can't fix the problem so far

    i have originally forgotten my pass code for a new iPod Touch, now I have with Apple's help reset it to factory, my issue is due to the change in my Apple ID , the iPod will not  let me set it up under the new Id or the old one.I also have been set up with find my iPhone and I don't remember if I did this or not, could have been the grand children trying to help out. Any ideas or suggestions, I haven't even used this yet and I have owned it for 6months already. Really am disappointed that the process is so difficult to navigate.

    I have also noticed the same "problem".  I do not fully understand the impact of using the same ID on multiple computers and devices if I want to keep them all in sync.

    Hello.
    Case 71290.
    I have a problem with activation my iPhone 4. I have bought the iPhone in a internet-shop one week ago and update iOS 7.1.1 yesterday. After update iPhone has an activation screen and asks previous owner’s Apple ID and Password. I don’t know Apple ID and Password; I haven’t communication with him. I can not use my iPhone 4 days. I am so disappointed this situation. Can you help me to disable this function, please?
    Serial No of my iPhone is 69******A45 and IMEI is ******. I attach photos of the box and iphone.
    Best Regards.

    No.
    You need to contact previous owner or return it & get a refund.

  • Problem with network on Iphone 4

    Please tell me if someone has a problem with network on Iphone 4?

    Of course other people have had problems. However, just knowing that other people have had some vague, undefined "network problems" most likely isn't going to be very useful. You'll get more and better help if you can give some details about your specific problem. Include who your carrier is, what country you're in. Then describe the exact nature of the problem. Then, maybe someone will be able to give good suggestions.
    And, by the way, the free bumper program ended some time ago. It also was only a "solution" for one of many possible problems.
    Best of luck.

    Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.

  • I misplaced my iPhone and used Find My iPhone to track it down. It shoudl me a Google type may with my current location and the location of the iPhone; it was located in a ]heavily wooded area a few miles from my home. That was incorrect, Why?

    I misplaced my iPhone and used Find My iPhone to locate it. The map showed my home and the apparent location of the iPhone which was five miles south of my home in a heavily wooded area. It turns out that was an incorrect location as I eventually found my iPhone in my office three miles in the other direction. Can anyone provide m with an explanation for the discrepancy and inaccuracy?
