Is it possible to locate iPad 4G+WiFi location if the services iCloud and Find My iPhone have not been configured.
Hello! My IPAD 4G Wi Fi was stolen in Kiev, 17.05.2011. Is it possible to locate its location if the services iCloud and Find My iPhone have not been configured.
If it is possible what should I do to find it?
I have already applied to the police. But I also heard that if you contact the company Apple, they can quickly find the iPad police. Is this true?
No.
Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod. If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number). If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. This requires action before the device is lost/stolen. If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

I have two iPads and one is connected to the internet but my other iPad was connected then was not and since then I have not been able to add my internet back onto my iPad it only says cannot connect to the server any help would be great thanks
If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPad. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
First, test your iPad on some other WiFi networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
If your iPad does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. You could try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings to see if that corrects the problem. If not, contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPad is bad.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured. -

To follow up on my question. Only because this is the first time I am using this forum.
I have owned the iPad for approximately six months.
I have been using the iPad at home thru my wireless network, no problems.
In addition to my IPad I connect to the intent with my laptop, and my cell phone. No problem.
Suddenly approximately five days ago I have not been able to connect my IPad to the Internet. Laptop and cell phone still connect.
However when I leave my home I am able to connect my IPad from the Public Library and from Starbucks.
Can anyone give me some advice on how to get connected from my home.
Not sure how or when I can expect a response to this problem.
Thanks
Bill
<Email Edited by Host>Thanks, however I am not familiar with the Sleep and Homekey buttons on my IPad.
What I plan to do when I get home from Starbucks is, Settings/general/Reset/reset network
I have rebooted my router no luck.
Am I missing something on not knowing about the Sleep and Homekey?
Thanks,

Will the 1st generation Ipad take updates past ios 5.1.1? I have not been able to update to ios 6.
5.1.1 is the highest for the first generation iPad.

I just bought an iPad mini. Some of the photos were downloaded from my iPhone but not all. Why?
I just bought an iPad mini. Some of the photos from my iPhone downloaded to my new device but not all. Why?
Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, giving your devices enough time to download them. When you enabled photo stream on your iPad mini, you only downloaded photos from the last 30 days, as older photos are no longer in iCloud. To stream older photos to your iPad, add them to a shared stream on your phone (http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99). Then you can save them to the camera roll on your iPad mini and delete the shared stream.

Updated my 4s to new IOS 5.1.1 software and ever since i have not been able to connect to wifi
I updated my iphone 4s to the latest IOS software, which is 5.1.1. Immediately after doing so i could no longer connect to me wifi!
I searched this issue online and found that many other people experienced the same problem due to the new software. I have no idea how to fix this problem. I am also worried that this problem will not be fixed until Apply releases a new software! Does anyone know when this will be? Also, if i take this issue directly to apple what is the likelihood that i will get a new phone without this issue?Some wifi routers seem to really have a problem with iOS 5.1.1 (and some with Apple stuff in general).
Try a soft reset (holding the home button and standby button simultaneously until the power off slider appears, then keep holding until the apple appears. Let go and let it reboot)
If you are connecting but aren't getting any actual data or a ridiculously slow trickle of data, try switching your DNS to 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4
If it was connecting to wifi before you updated your iOS but now isn't, it is most likely not a hardware failure. -

My contacts are synched until the last day but nothing else. The passcode was set . I was wondering if I could find my phone using GPS tracking that I've read in some threads, please help. Thanks
No.
It might be worth checking with your Auto Insurance company to see if the contents of your car, including the phone, might be covered under your policy. -
ok so first off my ipad was stolen, it was all my savings since im a college student attending uci and now the art institutes. my ipad was stolen the other day and the first thing the culprit did was turn of location services. i had find my iphone installed and running and everything but they turned it off. there should be an update for find my iphone to turn location services back on in this case. or is it that apple is so money hungry even after making billions that they wish for me to buy another one as if im made of money? seriously? apple claims to take care of their consumers, yet i get the run around and so do thousands of other apple fans when it comes to stolen property, **** it should be part of ios to take advantage of the gps, wifi signal, cellular signal etc. to trace a apple product yet it's not even on apple's todo list? some customer service.
Sorry for your loss, but had you put a lock code on you iPad, the theif would not likely have been able to go in and turn off location services to begin with. The sad truth however is, once an iPad/iPhone/iPod is stolen, it's pretty difficult to stop someone from getting away with it. It's not Apple's fault and they can't be responsible for theft. It's just a sad testimony to our society........And while your blaming Apple for your loss, just remember that No, Zero, Nada, electronics manufacturers get involved in theft. Nor do cellular providers. Theft is an issue for the police, not the manufacturer or service provider.

how do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad? I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.
You don't transfer Apple ID's from one device to another one. You sign out in the settings, )the App Store and iTunes if necessary) and then sign in with the other ID.
Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Sign out. Them sign in with the other ID. You can sign out of the app store and iTunes as well by going to the featured Atab in the App Store and the music tab in iTunes, swipe to the bottom and access the Apple ID in there.
You should have erased the iOad before you gave it to her in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That way she could set up the iPad as new with her own Apple ID.
Be aware of the fact that if you use each others ID's in order to download past purchased content to your own iPads, you will lock yourself out of your own ID as you will have associated your iPad with the other person's Apple ID.
In other words, if you sign into your wife's ID on your iPad so that you can download an app or an album so that you don't have to pay for it again, you will lock yourself out of your Apple ID for 90 days. -
How do I stop my wife's iPad from receiving all of my texts to and from my iPhone. I ready to scrap all things apple
You could create the new Apple ID for her and keep the existing one for you.
If you need/want to keep the same ID, perhaps this article will help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5538

Hi.. My internet and wifi are working on samsung phone and hp laptop but its not getting connected to iphone ipad, only skype is coming online rest all apps and safari show no internet connection. Got new linksys router WRT160NL , but situation same. Tried reboot, renew lease, forget network, reset network setting. Pls advice
Have you tried a simple reset of your iPod to see if that helps? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Otherwise, have you tried any of the troubleshooting mentioned in this Apple support document?
