My iPhone 4S is showing as offline on "find my iPhone" even though it has full signal and wifi and all settings activated?

Does anyone know why this might be? Doesn't this mean the app will be useless if my phone is stolen?

When iPad is off and not connected to internet, you'll will not be able to track, lock or wipe the iPad.
Apple do not track iPad.

  • IPhone showing as offline using find my iphone

    Hey,
    My girlfriends iphone 4 got stolen, as she didnt have the find my iphone feature enabled (my bad) She has since bought a new one and the first thing i did was turn this feature on using my mobleme account. However 90% of the time her phone shows as offline. I have tried restarting the phone, as well as turning on and off airplane mode. As well push notifications are enabled.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Any solution that im missing?
    Thanks!

    phone showing as offline on my iphone app

    Your phone must be powered on and connected to a Wi-Fi network in order to be found.

  • The other day at school i had lost/stolen ipod touch i had signed up with apple but i havent download the app (find my iphone) is there any way i can find out when my ipod touch gets connected to a wifi and track it

    how do u track an ipod touch when its connected to a wifi and how do u find out when its your stolen ipod touch is connected

    If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing - the app is for tracking an iOS device from another iOS device - 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. Note, though, that you'll only get the location of the WiFi router to which the iPod is connected; there's no way to pinpoint the exact location of the iPod itself.
    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.

  • My iphone keeps switiching off even though it has plenty of battery, how can i fix this?

    My iphone turns off and shows the 'no battery' image every time even though it has plenty of battery sometimes it even has 100%. If i take this to the apple store will they charge me to get it fixed?

    Update to iOS 7.1.1. Then bring it to an Apple Store if it isn't fixed.

    Here's an interesting bit: iTunes will let me restore my iPod touch from backup: it's still running iOS 4.3.3. I figured as much... there's backups showing in the Preferences -> Devices list for both devices (and even my old, long gone iPod touch 2G), but my iPhone (on iOS5) isn't giving me any such option. I remember I had to downgrade before to get the backup restored (something went haywire in the setup assistant, and I couldn't restore a backup from iTunes there)... If it was possible to go to iOS 5.0 rather than 5.0.1 I would just do the same thing again, but iOS 5.0.1 isn't an option. I attached a screenshot. Hopefully Apple can get this nonsense sorted out; I think iOS 5 might be the root of this, somehow.

  • If ipod touch is "offline" on find my iphone then could it be stolen?

    if ipod touch is "offline" on find my iphone then could it be stolen?

    Will it continue to say that actions will take effect when this device connects to the internet on Find Iphone. It says that sound and lost mode pending...Notify when found.  If someone clears the device, will Find iphone still say its in lost mode?
    I have my iphone, but my son's ipod touch is missing.

  • HT204053 can computer with different iCloud account show up on my find my iPhone

    I recently purchased a macbook pro for my daughter. I would like her new computer to show up on my "find my iphone" account. She has a seperate icloud account for her computer. I was able to do it with her iphone, but not her macbook.

    It's tied to the iCloud ID.  You would need to go to icloud.com and sign into her iCloud account in order to track it.  If you are using the Find My iPhone app, you would need to sign out, then sign into her iCloud account to track it.

  • I am unable to stream Netflix to my Iphone or Apple TV, from my wireless router . . . even though I am able to watch Netflix on my WII (also wireless) and desktop computer (not wireless).

    I am unable to stream Netflix to my Iphone or Apple TV, from my wireless router . . . even though I am able to watch Netflix on my WII (also wireless) and desktop computer (not wireless).
    On the Iphone and Apple TV I can connect to Netflix . . . it recognizes me and my account settings . . . and I can veiw all my recent programs and show titles, descriptions, etc..  But when I select one to watch I get a message saying:
    "ERROR A PROBLEM OCCURED WHILE PLAYING THIS ITEM. TRY AGAIN LATER, OR SELECT A DIFFERENT ITEM. GO TO WWW.NETFLIX.COM/SUPPORT FOR MORE INFORMATION. (139)
    Netflix support say there is nothing wrong on their end . . . that it is an Apple issue.  They see the request for the show, the devices are registered . . . but it shows 0 bandwidth to the device.
    My Apple TV did this when I first hooked it up a couple of weeks ago.  Then after a few days started working with Netflix, for no apparent change . . . now doesn't again for the past couple of days (I think that it auto restarted the other night after a virus scan).
    Very frustrating, and driving me nuts!  Has anyone else had and been able to resolve this problem?

    Troubleshooting
    Apple TV2 update one day and netflix is browsing but not launching the actual content (error 139)
    Ipad2 (another ios device) forces me to update netflix if I want to use it and I get the same error 139 on it.
    **** now I have two not ways not working where prior to some update it was fine.
    Nintendo Wii is still working ( mind you running an ancient version of netflix )  Dusted the Wii off and gave it to the kids use.  Now they are happy again...
    PC is also still working ( using some other flash client ) but that's just of interest, we're not going to be watching tv with that.
    My wife's iphone 4s is still working.  Odd.. still ios but for somereason I am not forced to update the version. So basically she could mirror stream up to the apple tv with it.  Nice feature of Ios5.  Later found out it is using 1.4 version of netflix.  The most useful thing out of that is that all 3 of the devices are Ios and it was actually the iphone with the 1.4 version of netflix that still worked!
    I heard from a friend who was on a different ISP he was still working so I took my appletv2 and ipad2 over to my brothers house who is on that same ISP as my friend and both started working.  So the ISP is involved too!
    Brought the appletv2 and ipad2 back to my house hoping it would maybe still work.  No dice   Broken again.
    Searched the appstore for a decent packet analyzer and there isn't really anything.  I was able to sniff the traffic with my PC and also on my juniper ssg5 confirmed that.  Turns out port 80 traffic is actually failing and authorization is not happening.  The other clients do not do this...
    Asked a buddy from work who used to work at the ISP if he could make a call to some one who might actually know what is going on.  He came back pretty quick and said yea they are trying really hard to get the beta patch in from Bluecoat asap. 
    So knowing that it was actually Netflix that changed when it hit 2.0 and in my case the ISP made the adjustment it's pretty safe to say this issue is going to be ongoing unless netflix changes again the way they authorize for licenses.
    So that's the summary of what went right down the troubleshooting path but I'll tell what what didn't
    2 calls to Netflix (useless... waste of time... they are too quick to blame anyone but themselves)
    1 call to apple support (support call was going to cost more than it cost for me to change ISPs)
    2 calls to ISP (through the normal means - regular support number)
    So why is this intermittantly working sometimes?  If you are lucky enough to authorize to an IP address that is not cached they voila you are going to get an authorization / a license to watch the show.  Some people report after defribulating their appletv (reseting, rebooting, dns changes, you name it) they get it working.  Over the past month we all seem to have got it working for some period of time only to lose it a day to two later.
    It's now been several days since the beta patch to the bluecoat and 4 of us who have been communicating on the issue appear to be online all at the same time for those several days and that is a good sign that we might be out of the woods on the issue.
    Hope this turns into something helpful for someone else out there.

    As long as you enabled it when you first activated your Iphone, it's pretty straightforward.  Using any computer, go to icloud.com.  Sign in with your Apple ID. A screen will come up with a map showing the general location of your phone.  If you have a friend with an iphone and are logged in using Safari, when you get close, you can tell your iphone to make a sound.  Good luck.

  • HT204074 I have our music collection on iTunes Match for my PC, ipad and iphone.  Can I share that music collection with my wife so she can play that with her iphone?  Even though she has a different Apple ID from me?

    I have our music collection on iTunes Match for my PC, ipad and iphone. 
    Can I share that music collection with my wife so she can play that with her iphone?  Even though she has a different Apple ID from me?

    Her iPhone will need to be set up to iTunes Match using your Apple ID to be able to share music via iTunes Match. Otherwise you'll have to download the music to your computer and then copy those tracks into her iTunes library, assuming hers is separate.
    Regards.

  • My iPHONE 5 wifi is NOT working when am 3 feet away from router while my iPhone 4s has full signal all the time.Please help.

    My iPHONE 5 wifi is NOT working when am 3 feet away from router while my iPhone 4s has full signal all the time.Please help.

    The problem would seem to be in the firewall in your router.  Have you tried disabling it? I assume you've updated the router firmware, right?  Consider bypassing the ISP provided router (using it as a modem only) and unsing another device such as an Aiport Express.

    You'll need to erase the drive by booting up holding command-option-r keys into your Recovery Volume.
    Use Disk Utility to erase the disk and then Internet Recovery. That will take a while.

  • Can i use my Ipad to track my sons iPhone.  He is not sure if find my iPhone is turned on on his phone as he has recently got it.  It is an older model iPhone.  He lost it last night

    CAn I use ipad to track my sons iPhone. He is not sure if find my iPhone is turned on on his phone as he has only recently got it.  He lost it last night and needs to find it.  His phone is an older model phone.  Version 4.3.1

    But before you give up, read tonefox post above. I am assuming that 4.3.1 is the iOS that's on the phone. If that is the case, he couldn't have find my iPhone or iCloud. They need iOS 5.
    You have to be signed into your son's Apple ID in order to track it on your device.
