My Ipad 4G was stolen, it had a passcode lock on it and it won't show up on find-my-iphone, WHY??

I lost my ipad 4G, it had a passcode lock on it and it wont show up on find-my-iphone, why is that? Lost it a few hours ago and dont know why it isnt showing up at all on icloud's find my iphone. I know that it will not work if there is no wifi available but I thought that since my ipad had the cellular data activated it was constantly ON even if it had the smart cover on, or am I wrong? Icloud's find my iphone app was def activated on it. I am not sure what to do at this point...am I out of luck?

  • My iPhone 4S was stolen recently. Is there a way I can track the phone other than via Find my iPhone? I believe that whoever has it has already restored the phone, so it's no longer available to me.

    Also, is there a way to recover the last known location of the phone, since it deletes the last known location after 24 hours of no activity?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately without find my phone being active, you cannot track, locate, lock or wipe the phone any longer.

  • If my Ipad was stolen, I had erased all the data, but keep the Ipad on my account - nobody can use it without my permission?

    If the iPad was running iOS 7, the thief/finder will not ever be able to use it.

    Check the serial number (located on back/bottom) in this lost/stolen iPad database. However, most owners are not aware of this database and don’t enter the serial number.
    Stolen iPad Database
    http://www.stolenlostfound.org/online-stolen-ipad-database
    Also do a search, using the serial number, on your local Craig’s List. Some users list the serial number of a stolen iPad to thwart the sale of a stolen device.

  • A month ago my iPhone was stolen, I turned on Activation Lock but it never came out BUT an hour ago somehow my apple ID was changed and someone removed from the account both iPhone and iPad and the iPad was also removely wiped. Can Apple help me somehow?

    A month ago my iPhone was stolen, I turned on Activation Lock but it never came out BUT an hour ago somehow my apple ID was changed and someone removed from the account both my iPhone and iPad and the iPad was also remotely wiped. As soon as I saw it I recover the password and return the access to my iPad. But iPhone is not registered for my apple ID any longer. Can Apple help me somehow? I have all the documents and the iPhone box. Will they lock the iPhone and return me access to it. I'm sure it's been attached to another apple ID.
    PS. the apple ID I'm using on the discussons is not the hacked one.

    Try contacting the Apple account security team and ask: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699.

    It's unfortunate that your device has been stolen.  You can report this to the police, but as has been answered before, if the device is restored you CANNOT locate it. 
    It probably is technically possible to track your device by the SIM; law enforcement will not waste their time doing so.  Besides, the thieves have probably changed it anyway.
    While unfortunate your iPad is gone, you really need to move on.

  • Ipad mini was stolen

    my ipad mini was stolen. it is showing in icloud as offline. i did not install the i0S7 update. with that being said, is it possible for my info to have been erased ?

    Yes. A thief just needs to restore it in iTunes to wipe it without iOS 7.

  • My ipad air was stolen, how to locate using icloud?

    My ipad air was stolen by a thief, how can I find his location once it is offline.

    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:
    This link, Re: Help! I misplaced / lost my iPhone 5 today morning in delta Chelsea hotel downtown an I am not able to track it. Please help!, has some good advice regarding your options when your iDevice is lost or stolen.

  • TS4006 hi where can i find my serial number for my ipad mine was stolen

    hi where can i fine my serial number for my ipad mine was stolen

    It would be on your box.  If you registered it with Apple, you could also sign into your support profile and see it there (https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do).  Finally, if you ever backed it up using iTunes you can go to iTunes preferences>Devices and hover you mouse over the backup to reveal the serial number.

    If your backup is in iCloud, and your new iPhone is already set up, go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, then go throught the setup screens on the iPhone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup and follow the prompts.  (If it isn't set up yet, just choose this option when setting it up.)
    Be sure your iPhone it connected to wifi and your charger while it is restoring the backup.
