Lost my iphone and they cant track it?

when i heard they cant find my phone i was pretty mad. idk where i left it and with all the stuff this phone can do, they cant track where its at? then they tell me the only way would be with the mobileme thing from att, nice of them to tell me about it when i got the phone, if i knew that was the only way for me to track it i would have spent the extra 100 on it. in other words i am not pleased with apple or att in this situation.

Why should they find it for you? You lost it.. It's not their fault.
If you had any other type of phone you wouldn't even have the option of being able to track it so easily. But the service does need to be set up on the phone before you lose it.
MobileMe is an Apple service, not AT&T
It is advertised on the Apple site and mentioned in the iPhone manual.
You should be pretty mad at yourself for losing the phone, not Apple or AT&T. They're not responsible for your loss.

    you've lost you're phone, you can report it stolen but i doubt they will find the person, or if you had insurance use that. there is like a 1% chance you will find it. &like someone else said, the theif cant use it if it had a passcode lock or without your apple id and password

    Hi tinashah817,
    Was this book downloaded using iBooks, or from another application? If it was from iBooks you will need to install that application to delete it.
    See this article about managing your iBooks library on your iPhone -
    iBooks: Tips for managing your iBooks library and storage on iOS devices
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5544
    Once the book has been deleted from the iPhone you can uninstall the iBooks application if you so desire.

  • I lost my iphone and need to track it

    i lost my iphone and i want to know if i can like track to wear it is

    To be able to track the iPhone you need to have enabled Find My iPhone before you lost it. The phone needs to be powered on and connected to the Internet. With a computer or another device go to www.iCloud.com and log in with your Apple ID. You should be able to see the device on the map.
    If the battery is dead, or the phone has been turned off, or someone found it and restored it, then you will not be able to locate it.

  • I lost my iphone,and i cant find the location in icloud

    i i lost my iphone in today,and i cant find the location in icloud,what can i do?  is it can use IMEI to find the location ?

    If you can't find it using icloud.com or the find my phone app, then there is no way of finding it.
    you can call your phone carrier and notify them.

  • I lost my iPhone and when I'm trying to find it with the location, they say that it is "out of service". What should I do?

    Hello people!
    As I mentionned in my question, I have lost my iPhone I'm feeling very dumb, it is the second time that this happens to me and I really need your help! I don't even know what happened, but when I arrived home after school, I didn't find my phone. The fact is that I was sure to have take it with me, but I haven't, as I see. I went on the apple site: "location of my iPhone" and they told me that my cellphone was out of service. Now, I really don't know what to do and what to think. I serched everywhere, in my car, everywhere in my house, I even went outside to check, but i live in Quebec and it is snowing a lot this winter, so maybe I just didn't see it... Anyways, I'm really scared cause I have 3G on my phone and now they say that I'm not connected to 3G anymore, neither any other internet service. I'm freaking right now. Does that mean that my cellphone is broke, stuck in the snow, or just somewhere that I'm never gonna find out? I'm imagining all the worst possibilities so if you don't want me to die soon, please, help me (try to reassure me if it is possible but if is not, tell me the truth anyways).
    Thank you guys the one who is gonna help is going to have my recognition forever!

    P.S.-I'm a french Quebecor so if you don't understand my writing, I'm sorry

    You're welcome.
    Voicemail is left at your carrier's server. That will continue to work unless you report your iPhone as lost or stolen with your carrier.
    You may never find it again and you can't if the iPhone remains offline or out of service which means the iPhone is powered off or doesn't have cellular reception.

  • Bought a new iphone and i cant activate it unless the previous owner deletes the account from their icloud but i lost contact with the previous owner how can i fix this?

    bought a new iphone and i cant activate it unless the previous owner deletes the account from their icloud but i lost contact with the previous owner how can i fix this?

    Take it back where you got and and get your money back.
    As has been pointed out, if there was a "previous owner", the phone is not "new". Thephone you purchased is most likely stolen. If whoever you bought it from won't give you your money back, turn it over to the police.

  • HT1766 lost my iphone and can't find photos and videos from camera roll on my computer. where are they?

    lost my iphone and can't find photos and videos from camera roll on my computer. where are they?
    thanks

    Where did you put them?
    These are not part of the sync process at all, as the manual tells you.  You should be importing them to your comptuer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

    Did you have Find My iPhone enabled on your iPhone in its settings? If so, go to www.icloud.com and use your Apple iCloud ID to use the Find My iPhone app.

  • I have 2 Company ipads. They were set up by someone who has left the company. His email address was deleted when he left - so we cannot send a recovery email request.  He connected both iPads to 'find my iphone' - and we cant locate his mobile! help!

    If you have the original receipts, you can take them to an Apple Store and they may be able to remove the activation lock. A good lesson learned to have an employee clear a device when leaving.

  • Lost my iphone and located on map it using the fing phone app. The second I located it the phone went offline. Whoever has it knows how to disable the find feature. What are my alternatives? Can at

    Lost my iphone and located it on the map, using the find a phone app. The second I had the location the phone went offline. Apparently, whoever has it knows how to disable the find a phone feature. Do I have any alternatives? Can AT&T or the police track the phone?

    ATT won't unless they are asked to do so by the police and unless a major crime is involved, the police won't request this just for a stolen phone.
    If the iPhone is running iOS 6, sounds like you didn't have the passcode lock feature enabled. Nothing prevents someone from powering the iPhone off and the same for removing the SIM card.

  • If I lost my iPhone and it's locked and the person that took it can't get in, is there any way I can recover this iPhone and is there anyway Apple can help?

    I lost my iPhone and its locked is there anyway that they can hook it up to there computer and get access? Also, Apple can help by using my Apple ID number, right?

    If there's a passcode on it(good for you!), then whoever stole it can only access your information if they can guess your passcode. However, they would likely get it disabled before guessing correctly, and be forced to Restore it. At that point, your information would be wiped off the device.
    And Apple can do nothing to help you, unfortunately. If you did, however, set up "Find My iPhone" before you lost it, then you can track the device. If not, then sorry - you're probably not getting your iPhone back.
