Lost iphone - wants to use the Find my iphone feature
I just lost my iphone 4 and I wanted to use the Find my iphone on it, but i laso just discovered that my wife's phone is using the same icloud account so when clicked on the Find my iphone, it is finding "her" iphone. How can I use it to find "my" iphone
If your phone is powered on, and has an Internet connection it will automatically find it when logged into that account in the Find my iPhone app.
The fact that it didn't appear suggests the phone is off, has no internet or Find my iPhone is not turned on in it.

I lost my iPad. I located it using the Find My iPad feature. I got an e-mail from Apply stating it had been found. What does this mean? Does this mean someone used it, tried to use it or what?
When you say an email from Apply, do you mean that the sender is named "Apply"? If so, what is their full email address (e.g. [email protected])?

I have lost my iphone 4s and want to use find my iphone app on my boyfriends iphone 3s to delete the info on my now lost phone. Do i need to log out of his icloud inorder to log into mine to do this on his phone?
You need to use the Find My iPhone app (in the itunes store - free). When invoking it on a device, you enter the ID password of the account the lost device is connected to. You can also use a computer's browser and log into icloud.com.

My iPad was lost today. I am using the Find My iPhone app, but it is not showing on the device list or the map (though my iPhones, even one that is not iCloud enabled, is). What can I do?
The only thing you might do is enable Lost Mode, which will allow you to set a passcode on it (as well as a message and phone number where you can be reached) so it will be locked when and if it does go online. You can also receive an email informing you if it goes online so you can track it on icloud.com. See http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f0165.
In the meantime, you may want to change your passwords. -
Can anyone tell me how to use the "find my ipod" app that I have for my ipod? I have the ipod registered on my itunes account but I can get the serial # to send it in for apple support? How does this feature work? Thanks
Turn on your computer.
Open your Browser.
Go to icloud.com
Select find my iphone/ipod -
Can anyone tell me how to locate my phone with the find my phone option?
Login to iCloud.com, from any computer, & try to locate your phone. Be aware, most thieves know to turn an iPhone off & remove the sim card. This defeats Find My Phone. Report the loss to the police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.

Why I cannot use the "find my mac" features on the iCloud? It says that "recovery system update required".. I'm using 10.7.2 now..
Run Disk Utility, and Verify Disk.
You will likely notice errors that require you to reboot to the Recovery Partition, and run Disk Utility from there, to "Repair Disk".
After running Repair Disk, reboot to the main partition, and run Repair Permissions from Disk Utility.
Then install the Recovery System Update again.
I bet your problem will be solved. -

If you didn't enable the Find My iPhone function, then you can't track the iPhone. But it sounds like you did have it turned on, if you're seeing that it's listed in the Find My iPhone app or on icloud.com. But are you sure it's the same device? If you had a previous iPhone, and the name of both iPhones was the same, it would make it difficult to know which phone was which, even if they both were listed.
In any event, an offline device is not trackable. It could be offline because A) it has no power or B) it is not connected to the internet via cellular data or wi-fi.
Until it comes back online (and it may never), then it cannot be remotely tracked. -
HT4759 How can i use the find iphone app to find my ipod without i cloud ?
My ipod has gone and i want to find it please i ned ur help it doesnt include icloud
It sounds like you need some clarification.
Find my iPhone = Find my iPod = Find my iPad = Find my Mac: a service that lets you locate any of those devices, assuming you turned it on on that device before you lost it.
iCloud: Find my iPhone (and friends) is one of the many iCloud services.
That being said, did you turn on Find my iPod on your iPod before you lost it? If so, go to icloud.com or use the Find my iPhone app on anyone's iOS device and log in.
If you did not turn on Find my iPod, then you're out of luck. -
Can I use the Find my Iphone app on Itunes?
Hi, I was wondering if i could use the find my iphone app on itunes, i do not own any other apple device except my phone.
Welcome to the Apple community.
You can use the find my phone app on your phone if you want, however there doesn't seem much point, since you will have it in your hand when you are using it and therefore know where it is.
You can enable the find my phone feature through settings >Icloud, and then track your phone at iCloud.com, should it be lost or stolen. -
