Iphone 4s, icloud account (not mine)

when i called the phone number that appeares on the phone, she told me this is not my phone

Apple will NOT help you.
The iPhone in your possession is in Lost Mode.  That's why it has a number displayed on the screen.  Nothing you do will make the iPhone usable by you, other than making some arrangements with the person whose Apple ID it is locked to.
Either return the phone to whoever you bought it from, make arrangements with the person who the iPhone actually belongs to, or turn it in to local law enforcement.  You are likely in possession of stolen property, and I imagine the penalties for that in Egypt are similar to those in the U.S.

  • Just upgraded iPhone iOS5 & iCloud account not verifying

    I just upgraded my iPhone and am trying to set up iCloud.  It said to check my email for instructions to verify my account.  The e-mail did not show up.  It is the correct address.  How can I get access to the iCloud if I can't verify it?  I need my calendar, contacts, notes to sync!!!  Thank you for any help.

    You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.

    I successfully synched photos from my mac book iphoto to my new iphone 5 (icloud did not do the job).  Now these photos appear on my phone in three places--iphoto app, last import, and photo library.  Does that mean that they take up three times the memory?  Will that affect iCloud?  Sorry for the end-user questions!!

    HHi, thank you for the reply. I have checked my iPad and iPhone and neither has iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled. Turned off in both. Photostream is turned on.
    i tried to sort it out  by dragging all the photos to Events on the Mac and then deleting them from iCloud - (left hand side of iPhoto under the section 'Shared'). the photos now show up in Events. I did force quit but the issue remains. The message reads ' photos are bing imported to the library. Please wait for import to complete.'
    i can't empty iPhoto trash either. The message read "Delete error. Please wait for import to complete.'
    WHen I was moving the photos to the Events I always had a message about duplicates - to the effect that the photos already existed, did I want to import them? I clicked on Yes, import all duplicates. But when it showed the images - duplicates side by side - one showed the photo and the other was blank.
    I really don't know what to do! And I don't know how to handle my iOS devices. Is it to do with the large number of photos? Any help, advice appreciated.

    can't connect to my iCloud account - not from my Mac's, not from my Phone and not from my iPad. Worked earlier today, but not now. Any known problems right now/Eric

    Seems to be a major problem, according to MacRumours. Just have to wait, I guess...

  • Help! FR find itune library from another account, not mine!

    My Mac Pro has two accounts, and if I use FR to play music, it only shows playlist from another account, not mine! how can I fix it?

    Well, after troubleshooting here in the Front Row forum for a year, I've never seen that problem from anyone else. That's why I don't think you're going to find much support here. AppleCare Support will charge you $49 (in the U.S.) to troubleshoot a software issue after 90 days. I'm not sure what the charge is in Canada. You could buy an AppleCare Protection Plan (you can anytime within the first year of purchase) and then get free telephone support for software issues, like this.

  • HT204053 I need to change in my iPhone the iCloud accounts

    I need to change in my iPhone the iCloud account, if I delete it does it erase all my contacts?  What else will it affect?

    If you are having cellular data issues, then you will need to contact your cell phone provider, that is a carrier feature.

  • I can't erase all data and content from my iPhone 4s. It says iCloud account not verified, when it only asks for my Apple ID to erase all data and content.

    It's really been puzzling me, I've never logged in the Apple site on a laptop before - I have been getting the same message 'Unable to verify iCloud account' every time I try and erase all data and content from my iPhone 4s. When I go to iCloud on my laptop and sign in using my Apple ID it signs me in. These are the same log in details I am prompted for when trying to erase all data/content from the phone. If anybody could point me in the direction that would be really appreciated. Thanks

    Hi.
    Yes, I recently changed my Apple ID password - around 2 weeks ago when I bought the phone.
    Does anyone know if you need to do the IOS update to be able to restore all data and content? I have not installed the new update on either of my iPhone 4S's yet.
    The phone I am trying to reset was sold to me by a friend and when it was it had already been reset and it was on the language selection screen.

  • ICloud account not matching my iPhone account?

    I have set up my wife's iPhone and iPad with iCloud and turned on the Find My iPhone switch.  I did the same with my iPhone.  We have seperate Apple accounts.
    I can locate her devices but I cannot locate my device.
    Originally the iCloud account showed 2 of my iPhones.  An older one and my new one.  But Find My iPhone could not locate either.
    I deleted both and now I am trying to reconnect to my new iPhone.

  • Help! I can't delete my neighbors email from my iPhone 5 icloud account after I sold it to him after restoring it to factory settings.  Now he's on my iCloud account and it cannot be deleted.  Its impossible.  help. It seems the first one cant get delete

    Help Please, I sold my iphone 4 to my neighbor after I restored it to factory settings.  I just bought a new iphone 5 and decided to check out the icloud "stuff' so that I can use 'find my iphone' because I have 2 kids.  I went to check out my icloud on my imac and in the address bar put icloud.com then signed in, double clicked on mail went accounts then clicked on the gear in the right hand corner and there it was.  My neighbor had his email in the icloud and there absolutely was no way to delete his info off of my new phone.  I guess once the first person enters their info you absolutely cant get rid of it.  you can get rid of aliases but just not the original one. WHY!!  Is there any brilliant, wonderful,generous person out there that would know how to delete him from my account.  The genius bar said that they've never seen this before.  If someone can help I'm taking the info to the apple stores that I went to so that I can teach them how to do it.  Of course, I will tell them who showed me. I give you my word.

    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.

  • 2 iPhones, 2 iCloud Accounts but 1 Windows 7 PC.  How do I use iCloud Control Panel so that changes made change both accounts?

    Help!
    We have two iPhones, each with an iCloud account as my wife and I have different contacts (some are the same though), text and e-mail requirements.  However, my Win 7 PC will only allow one instance of iCloud Contol Panel to run at any one time, and so when a change is made to Outlook 2010, only one iCloud account is updated.  I have got around this with the Calendars by sharing the information, so when I change my calendar it is reflected on her iPhone and iPad.  But when I make a change to contacts, they are updated in Outlook, but not on her iPhone or iPad until I exit the iCloud Control Panel with my details and enter hers.  It is way too easy then to end up with duplicates and alsort of chaos.
    So what is the work around?  Does anyone else have this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Lars,
    In the examples folder there are some examples for simple operator interfaces. In the programmer help file they is a section on creating a teststand engine and the steps involved. Uses these notes and say the LV simple operator interface you can match up the steps and how to achieve them. In the Resource Library under TestStand there are plenty of useful notes, code, presentations to help you on your
    What you are trying to achieve is to start the teststand enine running from Labview. Open a sequence file. Once you have that sequence file loaded you can then start to manipulate the properties on that sequence, such as your local boolean.
    Hope this gives some pointers

  • Music on iphone 4 that is not mine

    After updating my iphone 4 to ios 5 things were working properly, but once the updates came out I am getting music that is not mine on my phone. The music is not showing up in itunes and I can't delete. How do I get rid of the unwanted music?
    The second issue that I'm having is that half of my cd cover artwork is no longer showing up. Instead I get a generic black with white writing cover that says "This is an album by the Black Keys. The name of the album is Brothers." I assume that my account is getting crossed with someone elses in the cloud.

    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Store
    Tap the Apple ID then tap Sign Out then sign in with your Apple ID.
    Perhaps you have more than one user account on your laptop and iTunes content was synced using another Apple ID from that account.

  • Icloud account not updating

    I have three devices - PC, iphone and ipad2.  Only the PC reflects the correct apple id in iCloud.  The other two keep asking for an old apple id password.  What do I do about this?  I thought they would sync but that's not working.  Now iCloud will recognize my iPad but not the iPhone - it says it is offline.  What is the problem.  All have the latest iTunes and I've managed to back them up to my PC. 
    I want to have the same Apple ID and password on all three, the iCloud id to match on all three as well.
    Thanks

    Okay I guess I'm getting a little confused with the use of current Apple ID... let me clarify, here's what happened...
    I had an Apple ID and password that iCloud used as well. They worked fine until someone hacked my email and I paniced that they would hack my Apple info since everything was closely tied together.  So I decided to change the Apple ID, email account and password in the same day.
    This morning I went to the Manage my account at the My Apple ID and changed both my Apple ID and apple password to entirely new ones.  I changed the Apple ID and password in iTunes on both my iPad and iPhone as well. 
    I then realized that the iCloud account on my PC was updated to the new Apple ID and password, but the iphone and ipad accounts were still showing my old information.  After repeatedly being told by my iPhone and iPad that either my Apple ID or password were incorrect I came here, searched for about two hours and finally posted this thread. 
    I don't know what else to do.
    I went back to Manage my account and changed my Apple ID back to the previous one and left my password as the new password - it didn't work. 
    Any suggestions?
