My iphone got stolen yesterday

is there any way that apple can lock my phone via serial number or imei ?
Thanks

No there is no way to lock it with the IMEI or Serial #. You could lock, trace or erase the iPhone if you had Find My iPhone enabled on it.
If you did then take a look at this: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2696
If you didn't enable find my iPhone then all you can do is what deggie kindly suggested.
All the best

Hi guys,
My iphone got stolen yesterday night, I activated lost mode but the phone was off and couldnt be tracked, today i just got an email about the last place the phone was found yesterday night, its off again, i went there but they said that nobody has found an iphone, police does not do anything also, what should i do?

My iPhone was stolen. Straight away I used the findmyiphone app. No surprise that the phone had been turned off, rendering the app totally useless.
I thought its ok, I've got a pin code. My brother then goes on to tell me that they are easily bypassed.
My brother states that if you put an iPhone in dfu mode, connect that iPhone too iTunes
That iTunes detects the said phone is in dfu mode and does a system restore.
Wiping the phone and giving the Theif a brand new iPhone!!!
Someone from apple please tell me WHY THIS CAN HAPPEN?!

So, as i said, my iphone got stolen like a month ago, and i purchased a new one.

Where do i go if my iphone got stolen ? :(

My iphone got stolen in the city and I live upstate I have far too much information to just let it go
what can I do to get it back ?

If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can try wiping it. Otherwise, the only other thing you can do is report it the police (and your insurance company if it's covered) and start changing your passwords and other sensitive info sored on it.

Iphone got stolen. what to do?

my iphone got stolen and i do not installed Find My Iphone or any apps like that. how do i find it back? can i use the serial number and IMEI somehow trake it down or lock the phone? thanks~

Best thing to do is report it to your network, and the police. Give both the IMEI number, and get it blocked. If you give police the IMEI number, then if they finnd it, you hould get it back. Also, check local second hand stores, all those that pay cash for phones. Take your IMEI with you, like the box, and you can either call the police upon finding it, or, you may even get it returned.

Contact your Service Provider and ask them to block your phone. Change any passwords associated with ids on your phone.
Did you have Find My iPhone installed?

My iphone got stolen and i would like to block it. How can I do it ?
Thank you

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, especially your Apple ID/iCloud password NOW!
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, and running iOS 7.0, & Find My Phone turned on/activated, then phone cannot be re-activated or the passcode removed without knowing your Apple iD/Password. It will be nothing but a useless paperweight.
If not running iOS 7.0, the phone can be forced into recovery mode & restored.

IPhone got stolen and found again

Hi!
So recently, my iPhone got stolen, and the theif wiped all the data and information and put his icloud information (io7) on it, the police found the phone and handed it over but then his information is on the phone and i can't get past activation, so my question is, how do I get past it?
Do I ask the police for a report and go to Apple? Because I heard apple dosen't do it?
Or can I use some software to do it?
Thank You!

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. Unfortunately this has sort of worked in reverse for you. You have no alternative. No must get the Apple ID and password the thief used in order to use the device. If the thief will not provide this info you will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

My iPhone got stolen and FindMyiPhone does not work PLEASE HELP!

Hello there.
This is my first post and I got a question.
Here's my story
My iPhone 3GS got stolen this week and I had "FindmyiPhone" (iOS 5.0.1) configured, but when I try to locate my iPhone it will show up as "offline".
I've once heared you can trace your iPhone by an EMEI or UPC number or something like that.
Do you guys know more about that so I can trace down my iPhone and can show it the police?
Thanks!
Kind regards,
Renzeau

I just got my macbook pro stolen last night. the theive opened it and I got the email from findmyiphone. I can see which house it is at, but the thing is cops can't help. Im still watching it on my iphone waiting for them to ope it again so I can see its location. But Im already ****** as $%#% because 911 told me that they cant keep following a missing laptop.
so that was my story, right now my macbook is showing as red also. But keep watching it because they have to turn it on eventually and as long as you check email me when found on icloud.com then you will get an email. Or you can also keep watching on your computer.
So again go on icloud.com and sign in with the itunes account/email that you use on your iphone, you'll see the find my iPhone option there!

My iphone 4 got stolen yesterday, what should I do?

I tried using MobileMe, but it said it could not be located. My provider is Rogers, and I know what my Iphone's serial number and EMEI is. What should I do? I also live in Toronto, Canada. Also, on Rogers I suspended the usage of the phone, so they can't really use it - I think.
I got the iphone in February too.
Message was edited by: Harrattan

Sorry, but all you can do is notify the police, and call Rogers and let them know so they can perhaps deactivate the iPhone (I don't know if they can, but it's worth asking). There's not going to be any way to locate the unit since Find My iPhone didn't work.
Regards.
