My iPhone 5 has been stolen, how can I report this or what can I do about it?

Anybody know how to report a stolen iPhone and get it blocked?

Your carrier may be able to cut off cellular service to it, and you might be able to locate or wipe it with Find My iPhone, but only if you had that turned on on the phone before it was stolen.
Aside from that, your local law enforcement might be able to help.

  • My iPhone has been stolen, how can I delete the data on it while at the same time, keeping my number.

    Hi there,  My iPhone has been stolen.  I have managed to get a replacement SIM with the same number.  Is there any way I can have the data on the stolen phone deleted or have it tracked and stopped of its use.  I did have Find me App but I am not sure if it was set up. I do not have the phones serial or technical details although iTunes always showed it when connected to my laptop.  Thanks  Bernie

    Use your computer and the Find My iPhone on www.iCloud.com and see if it locates your iPhone. If it does then you can wipe it remotely. If not you have no way to do so.
    Be sure to change all passwords for sites that were accessed from your iPhone.

  • My iphone has been stolen, how can I retrieve my contacts without sim and having never backed up

    My iphone has been stolen and I have never backed up my phone so how cn I retrieve my contacts as I have no recoed of the sim number

    The iPhone doesn't save contacts to the SIM card so I don't know what good knowing the SIM card number would do you. If you have no back up of the contacts, they are lost.

  • My iPhone has been stolen how do I locate it

    How can I locate my iPhone without a downloaded tracking device?

    If you turned on Find My iPhone prior to theft, log into iCloud from any computer and wipe it from there.
    If you didn't turn on Find My iPhone, there's nothing you can do except change your passwords and contact your carrier and police.

  • My iPhone has been stolen. I have reported theft with the RCMP, blocked it and activated Find My Phone, how do I turn on the Blare (alarm sound)?

    I know how to "Play sound" over iCloud, but I heard there was a way to make your phone constantly go off very loudly. How do I do that?

    You heard wrong, as there is no way to do that. Sound only plays for two minutes.

  • HT1937 My iPhone has been stolen.I need to block the iPhone. How can I do it?

    Dear Sir,
    My iPhone has been stolen. I need to Block the iPhone.
    Please suggest me the ways to block the iPhone.
    With best regards

    Contact your carrier, they might be able to blacklist the device. If you have find my iPhone enabled you can try to track it. You can also remote wipe it.
    Change all of your passwords and call the police.

  • My iPhone has been stolen. How can I block it?

    My iPhone has been stolen. I did not set up "find my iPhone" in iCloud. Is there a way to block it so that no one can ever use it again?

    You should at least check iCloud.com to make sure that you don't have it enabled. It tends to do that by default.
    So go into iCloud.com and sign in with your Apple ID
    Click Find my iPhone
    Click "All Devices" and see if your phone is listed
    Click your phone if it is
    Click on "Lost Mode" and follow the prompts.

  • My iphone has been stolen can i find it?

    hi my iphone has been stolen can i find 8 back f yes how?

    If you turned on Find My iPhone before it was stolen, then you can track it on icloud.com in a browser or the Find My iPhone app on iOS. Otherwise, you can't do anything.

  • My iphone has been stolen so i went to icloud and did the remote wipe/erase. but it says offline pending erase. how will i know when my pictures and all other data have been erased?

       my iphone has been stolen i did the auto erase online but my phone is offline pending erase i cant bare to think someone has acces to my phots and pictures. how will i know when the erase has been succesful

    Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
    I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
    Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
    Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
    How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
    Sync Contacts:
    Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone
    Sync Calendars:
    Your calendars are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone

  • I have entered the passcode wrong many time my iphone has been disabeld how can i open it

    i have entered the passcode wrong many time my iphone has been disabeld how can i open it

    you will have to wait until you can try again,
    i believe the only way if you don't know the passcode is to factory reset through itunes which you will lose everything from your phone if it hasn't been backed up

    No. You can do it if you have Find My iPhone installed/enabled on your iPhone though, but only if the phone is still turned on
