Is there a way to remotely activate "find my iPhone"? I do not think I have ever activated it on my phone and now I have lost it.

No, sorry.

Your iPod can only be synced with one computer at a time. If you try to sync it with a new computer/iTunes library, it will replace the contents of the iPod with whatever is in the new library. You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabling the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
Before doing anything else, authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account. In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials. Either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync.
Then right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.
iOS: How to back up
Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc. For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases. For all other nonpurchased iTunes content, see this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier. Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.

If you do happen to lose any purchased content, you can always redownload it from the iTunes Store again at no cost via iCloud. See this article for information.

Same problem here! MacBookPro with SSD. 10.7.2
Disk Utility didn't find any problems.

I upgraded to iphone 5c at the end of Dec. I accidentally washed my phone and now it doesn't work. Is there a way to get a new or refurbished iphone 5c without signing a new contract?

Thank you. I've been looking online for refurbished iphones but that is cheaper than buying a refurbished phone.

I upload all of my photos from my iphone 5 onto my macbook air to get more space on my phone, and now whenver i try to upload it says there is no more storage or there was a problem transferring a picture. what can I do to get more space onto my iphoto?

I've tried putting the pictures on flashdrives, but iphoto would no tlet me transfer.

I don't know how large the SSD (solid state hard drive) is, or how big your iPhone 5 is, but with some iPhones having 64GB and some Airs having as little as 64GB and some having as much as 512GB it's not hard to see how storing the contents of your iPhone 5 on your Macbook Air could run you out of space.
Go to the Macbook Air and bring up a finder window and pull the Go menu down and go to the Computer. Right click on the Macintosh HD and select get info. See if there is any available space on the MacBook Air. If not you are out of SSD space (you're storing more on your Macbook Air than it has storage for). I'm not sure if iTunes can store its library on an external hard drive or quite how you would make that happen. But even if you managed that, when the hard drive was disconnected, you would lose access to your library. Using a smart media card might be possible (I don't know) but it would probably be irritatingly slow. If you have a small Air and a big iPhone you might just have to find a different computer to sync to. Just remember a 64GB iPhone is a big chunk of SSD for a Macbook Air. I did it with my previous and my current Air but even my previous one had 256GB and I really just fit.

I have had a new ram module fitted and now i have no photos in I photo but they are there on the hard drive how do I get them into i photo as they were.

I have a 2008 Macbook and have had a new ram module fitted and now i have no photos in I photo but they are there on the hard drive on mackintosh ,photos how do I get them into i photo as they were.
Frustrated
Thanks Andrew

changing the ram has nothing to do with the photos missing. Did you install the ram or someone else?

I used to be able to have thousands of pictures on my phone and now after my upgrade it keeps saying "not enough storage" is there anything I can do? I don't want to buy more storage

I used to be able to have thousands of pictures on my phone and now after my upgrade it keeps saying "not enough storage" is there anything I can do? I don't want to buy more storage
It says I cloud total storage 5.0 GB available 5.0 GB so whats the problem?

iCloud storage is for backups. It is not associated with space on your phone. You cannot buy more space for your phone. Check what you have on your phone and delete what you don't use or seldom use to get more space on your phone.

Any way to remotely activate "find my iPad " app on stolen iPad?

iPad stolen today at AKC event. Owner did not know had to activate/turn on "Find My iPad" application. Is there any way to do this remotely?

Unfortunately, no. It has to be enabled on the device itself and cannot be enabled remotely.

Can support remotely activate "find my Iphone" if you ask them to?

I lost my phone, it was not set up with the application, can I ask support to remotely activate the "find my iphone" app? If not then any answers on how to help me find the phone would be appreciated. The phone was out of charge when I last had it, and has a password on it, it was not set up with Icloud either. Anything will help, thank you.

No, Apple does not and cannot remotely access a users products. Find My Phone has to be turned on while in possession of the iPhone, it cannot be activated remotely.

Is there a way to actaully talk to someone at apple whereby it doesn't cost money? I downloaded an app and now the stupid phone says that there is compass interference and to move away from the interference. Well, I am in the middle of a field. Now what?

Is there actually a way to talk to a service person at Apple where you don't have to shell out money? I downloaded an app that cost $9.99 and when I tried to use it I get a message that says there is compass interference and to move away from the interference or wave the phone in a figure 8 pattern. Well, now I have a sore arm from constant waving out in the middle of a field and it appears that is going to cost $29 to talk to a person. Does anyone have any idea why this is occuring? As a side note, I can use a normal compass with no issues so it is the phone. From a customer perspective, this is poor customer service.

First of all, an idle threat is one that a person has no intention of carrying out. In the past 16 months that I have had this phone I have become less and less satisfied and found that it is like much of today's technology....over rated and under performing. The one thing that I have never been accused of is not wanting, or not giving help but when a company makes itself unavailable to resolve issues and leaves it to forums run by users helping users, it speaks more about the company than anything else they could do. As I said, I do not make idle threats and I did not threaten you in any way. Guess I'll call this topic done with as it is not and was not the intent to get a war started

When I send a text message I do not get any confirmathat it has been delivered. Is there a way of getting an automated confiramtion of deleivery as I'm used to having this on a previous phone, and need to know that my texts have been delivered.

When I send a text message I do not get any confirmation that it has been delivered. Is there any way of getting an automated message confirmation delivery and time? I was used to this with my old phone and need to know that my text message has been delivered to the recipient's phone, and when.

Thanks. So there's no means of knowing whether a text message has been delivered, not to mention time of delivery. Perhaps I've gone for the wrong phone. It might do a lot but seems to miss out on some basics.

Is there a way to recover photos from an iphone that is not working?

It fell about 20 feet and shattered, won't turn on. Anyway someone or some program can access the photos from the hard drive?

Do you have a windows computer? If so I would try to connect the phone to that and follow the steps in this link http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083 for importing pictures and see if your device is detected. I'm not sure if the phone needs to have power or not when using a windows but I would still try it.

Is there any way to find a lost iPhone even if the Find my iPhone app is not logged in with iCloud account?

Hello everyone,
I've lost my iPhone 5s yesterday in a party. The Find my iPhone app is not logged in with my iCloud account in the phone. Is there any way to find the phone? I'm really lost in this matter. Please help, if you can!
Thank you.

Thanks for taking the time to respond!!
I didn't think so, but was hoping this was a time, that someone knew something that I didn't.
