Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
If the device is wiped by you or another, you may not be able to locate the device (although some have reported they can)
If the device is unable to connect to a cellular or wifi network for whatever reason then all you can do is physically look for it.
You should also change the passwords on any Apple ID's you have in use on the device. If the phone is suspected to have been stolen, report it to the Police (if you have insurance ask for a crime reference number). You should also contact your provider to have your number locked.

For Find My Phone to work, you must first turn it on in Settings > iCloud before the iPhone is stolen, and the iPhone MUST be turned on and connected with the Internet. If not, it is not possible to locate it. Report the theft to the police, change all passwords associated with accounts on the iPhone, contact your carrier in case the can blacklist it.

My Iphone was stolen - what can I doing? My Face Time is turn ON, maybe it's better? Can you help me ?

Hi! My iPhone was stolen - what can I doing? My Face Time is turn ON, maybe it's better? Who can you help me? Maybe you have an idea? Please - help me. Iphone was stolen in my office (it my client, but I do not know who).

The only way to track your phone is if you had find my iphone installed and activated, then you go to icloud.com log in and track your phone.
If you didn't set it up then there no way to track it.
Not sure what facetime has to do with your stolen phone.

If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPod is turned on, connected to a WiFi network, and has not had the Find My iPod service disabled). Log into icloud.com and go to the Find My iPhone section. Then contact the police, giving them any location information you get.
If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track it. Notify the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPod (the iTunes Store, for instance).
Regards.

I-phone 4S was stolen, what to do

Hi there, my i-phone 4S was stolen from my flat in Burkina Faso; it is a Germany-bought version, so i-cloud was disabled. How can I find it here in Ouagadougou?

The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, all a thief or whoever finds it has to do is force the phone into recovery mode & restore it. While this deletes all data on the phone, it also removes the passcode so the phone can then be used as a phone or touch.

- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod (Settings>iCloud) and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and and go to FIndMyiPhone. You can also wipe the device, and have it play a sound .If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- Apple will do nothing

The SN will only help idenify the iPod as yours if it is recovered.

You should have been storing everything on your computer and regularly backing up your computer.
If you failed to do that, then you may be able to get your pics from photo stream

My Iphnoe 4 was stolen, what can i do?, how to know when it's block by IMEI

I'm travelling across argentina, and a couple of days ago some one stolen my Iphone in my room in KAIXO CENTRAL HOSTEL, (never go there!!!, there is an YHA hostel close to this, and there are security, I learn of my mistakes, later...).
I want to know when my Iphone it's blocked, any know how to confirm that the phone it's blocked??? , I call to apple support and send all the stuff to block my phone, at least i don't want who some one use it or see my personal data, photo, music...
when the Iphone it's blocked by IMEI, this device can do anything???
Thanks in advance.

If the carrier has blocked the IMEI, all that means is that the iPhone will not be able to connect to the cell network. That does not prevent someone from accessing the data or trying to hack the iPhone to work around the block. If you set a passcode on the screen lock, that makes it more difficult for someone to use the iPhone without erasing your information, but it's not impossible.
In any case, there's nothing you can do about it now, not unless you set up Find My iPhone and it can locate the iPhone in which case you can let the police know the reported location and, if you wish, wipe the iPhone (note though that if you wipe it, you will get no further location information). Change all passwords to online services you had set up or used from the iPhone.
Regards.

HT1918 MY IPOD WAS STOLEN, WHAT CAN I DO?

stolen ipod touch, is there anything i have to do?

No. It can't be tracked unless you enabled Find my iPod. Go out and buy a new one, or don't.

Ipod touch was stolen what can i do?

The cleaning staff stole my ipod at a hotel that I was staying in. The manager will not cooperate because he is not happy that we are indirectly accusing his staff of stealing my ipod. Is there anything I can do to track the ipod? It is a 2nd or 3rd generation touch.

If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPod is turned on, connected to a WiFi network, and has not had the Find My iPod service disabled or the iPod been completely restored).
If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track it. Contact the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPod (the iTunes Store, for instance).

My macbook pro was stolen, what can i so? No icloud, and my apple id can't recover it because it says that is wrong and i get no email from recovery section

Where can i report it?
Is it any chance to find it with no icloud?
Does some one knows if i buy a new one if my apple care stills works?
Thanks
<S/N Edited By Host>

Where can i report it?
To your local law enforcement agency.
Is it any chance to find it with no icloud?
Not online.
Does some one knows if i buy a new one if my apple care stills works?
Nope - AppleCare is for a specific machine. When you purchase a new one you'll need to purchase AppleCare again.
I would also recommend getting (if you don't already have) homeowners/renters insurance which will cover stolen articles.

My iPhone 3GS was stolen today while I was grocery shopping. How can I locate where my phone is?

My iPhone 3GS was stolen today. Can anyone help me figure out how to locate where my iPhone has been taken to? Some Low Life stole it while I was grocery shopping. I need that phone. I don't have a Contract phone, just a Gov't Free phone number/minutes. Please help me someone.

Thank You roaminggnome, I don't think I turned Find My Phone app on on my phone, but I did turn it on on my laptop. I deleted my contacts list and Hope that Iit somehow deleted my contacts list on my phone. Also, I turned on Find My Phone on my laptop and it says my phone is turned off. So I think that whoever stole my phone took out my Sim Card and replaced it with theirs or that they sold my phone for Crack. I hope my phone hasn't been restored. Ty for your response Roaming. God Bless You ,, Tinynawlinswoman6
