My iPhone 4s was stolen yesterday. Now it is still on. How do I need to do?
My iPhone has very important records inside. We took off my jacket with an 16G white color iphone 4S inside the poket & put the jaket on a shelf, then I tried the shop's clothings inside the H&M Shop at commerce . After 10 to 15 minutes when I want to fetch my jacket, I found my zipped pocket has been opened and the iPhone 4s and about US$43' were missing. I bought this iphone 4s on October 14, 2011. How do I lock the phone and cancel the T-mobile SM Card?
if you set up/signed up for 'find my iphone' you need to log into icloud on any computer and then you can locate, lock it, put a message on it, etc. how do you know it's still on though? good luck.

My iPhone 4 was recently stolen, so I erased it via the Find my iPhone app. I'm planning to get a new one and will want to restore it so it has all the data and setting from my old phone, but when I log into iTunes my old device isn't showing in the device list. If it's not showing in the device list how can I restore the content to my new phone?
Thanks for your very helpful reply. It's just what I needed after the stress and upset of having my phone and indeed my entire handbag stolen. I was under the impression that this was a forum to get help, but with people like you around apparently not!
Please see below re some of your rude and in fact incorrect comments:

Why would it? Devices only appear in the list when they are connected to iTunes either physically via a cable or via Wi-Fi.
Actually, that's wrong. Maybe you should check your facts before you post rude and incorrect replies!

Read the User's Guide before asking any more silly questions. Not trying to be rude but you come across as clueless. The User's Guide covers basic functionality.
I have read the guide, it doesn't answer my question. Perhaps if you read the guide yourself you would be aware of that! -
I will be purchasing a new iPhone in the next week or so if my old iPhone doesn't show up, so I don't want to completely delete my stolen phone off of my account just in case someone decides to return it. Is this a problem with apple, blackberry, or my carrier?
You need to contact Apple Support to deactivate iMessage. https://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact/

So, when I plugged in my new iPhone to my computer, all my music, info, pictures, etc was uploaded from the last time I had synced my old iPhone that was stolen. I'm happy I didn't lose everything, but I also had purchased at least $30 in music on my old iPhone (NOT through the computer, just off my device) since that last sync. So my problem is, my iTunes account completely realizes I've purchased all that music but it is NO where in my purchased library on my computer or new iPhone (so the whole "just right-click and transfer you purchases" gimmick is a no-go). And when I go to the individual songs I'd bought to try and get them back, all it says is I've already bought the song but won't tell me the NO MAN'S LAND that these songs are hiding in!!
I've looked up a bunch of threads and am still unsuccessful. I know that I should be able to get these purchases back onto my new iPhone and my authorized computer but I just have no idea how. It is becoming increasingly frustrating and I realllly do not want to spend another $30 on stuff I've already bought so anything would be helpful at this point.
Thanks,
OliviaThis was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
This is a picture of what it looks like now:

As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
any way to get around that? -
My iphone 4 was stolen and I now have a replacement. Luckily my music was stored on an external hard drive and when I transferred it to itunes it came up as previous library. I've been trying to sync it to my new phone but it's not working. All my apps etc have synced but the music won't. What can I do?

BTW, if you are a resident of the U.S, have iTunes 10.3 or later, and iOS 4.3.3, you can re download your iTunes purchases for free.

My iPhone 6 was stolen and i got it back, but the pass code was changed and so was the touch-id. and now im locked out of the phone because ios 8.1 requires either of the passwords to access the phone. and iTunes doesn't recognize it so i cant restore it at all PLEASE HELP
Take it to an Apple Store, take proof of purchase with you.

My computer died and my ipod was stolen. Now I have an iphone 4 and want to get to my library. Any ideas?
It will only be where you put it.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion..
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to backup ( not good), then you can redownload some purchases in some countries:

My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contacts to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone?
If you have the contacts on the phone you can sync the phone to the computer. The contacts should then show in address book. At this point you can sync the address book data to iCloud. You have to make sure the iCloud account is setup on the computer and this will not work unless the computer is running 10.7.2 of course. There are other ways to add the contacts to iCloud like through the phone but the phone must be running iOS5. If it is you can simply add the cloud account to the phone and toggle the contacts slider. You will get a prompt to keep or delete the contact data. Of course you keep. Then you will get a prompt to merge at which point you do. This should merge the contacts on the phone with iCloud. Hope this helps.

My iPhone 4s was stolen almost a week ago now. If I can still see the phone listed in Find My iPhone but appears to be turned off does this mean the theif has not restored it to factory settings???
Are you sure? I have other devices at home. The only way I can make them disappear on the tracking list is by turning off location or resetting to factory settings.
I just want to make sure I'm not tracking a phantom that I will never recover :-( -
my iphone 5s was stolen and i gps d it and found where it was but they turned it off and denied it and i googled how to open iphone 5s without passcode and a youtube video showed how, so now i am out of a phone that i just paid 300 dollars for because i dropped my last 5s and the glass shattered and i didnt have any insurance. so now it seems like i am out again. i was sold on the fact that the fingerprint sensor would stop that from happening but they can just reset the phone and have it as theirs new. is there anything i can do to get my phone back.
If you set up your phone correctly, it is still protected by the Activation Lock and can be used without knowing your AppleID and password.
Here are some more things about that:
What if your iOS device is off or offline?
If your missing device is off or offline, you can still put it in Lost Mode, lock it, or remotely erase it. The next time your device is online, these actions will take effect. If you remove the device from your account while it's offline, any pending actions for the device will be cancelled.
How do you turn off or cancel Lost Mode?
You can turn off Lost Mode by entering the passcode on your device. You can also turn off Lost Mode on iCloud.com or from the Find My iPhone app.

My sons iPhone 5 was stolen out of his blazer pocket while in a games lesson, this was last period and on return to get changed find that someone from his class had stolen his phone from his zipped pocket. Straight away I went onto the find my iPhone on my phone and it has been showing offline since the phone was stolen. The phone had a password set on it and I have notified the police, school and also our carrier. The phone has been offline now for 32 hours, would this mean they have been unable to access the phone and switched it off? Is it possible for the phone to be jail broken while this password has been set. I am most angry that this has happened and the changing rooms are always locked while the lessons take place, so this is someone within my sons class that has stolen the phone. Being a Friday And last lesson the phone is long gone now but I'm hoping with the security measures we have put in place with the pass code etc.... That they won't be able to unlock the phone to use it. The phone was only 2 days old as my son had only just upgraded :(
All you may infer is the device hasn't been turned on where it can connect to Wi-Fi.
The phone may be jailbroken if there is no lock passcode to prevent access. However, the phone can be completely erased and restored as new. In this case you will have no ability to locate it or prevent it from being jailbroken.
What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. 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:

Can you help me get all my previous information from Itunes onto my new IPhone?
My other one was stolen and now I can't transfer my pictures and music. It keeps asking for a passcode? I have tried my apple passcode, my phone code...What does it want?If iTunes is asking for a password to restore from an iTunes backup, then yes, you did set one up. You must have selected 'Encrypt iPhone Backup' when you created the backup. If you don't remember the password, then you'll have to restore the device as new.

My daughters I phone was stolen yesterday, is there any way I can track it?
If you set up find my iphone BEFORE it was lost AND it is on AND it has not been restored, then you may be able to track it using icloud.
Otherwise, there is no way to track it.
Report it to the police and change your passwords.
