My iphone has been stolen/lost. How can I know whether find my iphone is turn on?

I just lost my iphone. I've lodged a police report. The police said they will blacklist my phone imei/serial number. How to know whether my 'find my iphone' is turn on? Because i'm scared i've disabled it before it lost. I try to track my iphone using find my iphone and it says 'Offline'. Is that means my 'find my iphone' is turn off? If my iphone is blacklisted, can it still works?

Find My iPhone works only if all conditions are true:
1. Find My iPhone must be ON before lost.
2. iPhone has Internet connection (Wi-Fi/Cellular data)
3. iPhone is not switched off.
4. iPhone battery is not dead.
Blacklisting does not affect FMiP.

I think my iPhone has been stolen. How do I know if Find My iPhone has been turned on?

I'm not sure if I set up Find My iPhone. It is showing up in Find my iPhone, but as offline. Would it show up if I never set it up? Or does this mean its probably been turned off. I last had it within wifi and data should be turned on as well.

If offline, that means Find My Phone was setup/activated. One of the first things a thief will do is turn an iPhone off, thus defeating Find My Phone.
Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords, especially Apple ID & Mail.

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. How do I get it burnt?

My iphone has been stolen. I've deactivated the SIM.How do I get it remotely burnt?

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 iPad has been stolen, I need some help with the Find my iPhone app and iCloud please

Hello people. I have (had) an iPad 1 (wifi only) - which was stolen two days ago. It's locked with a passcode but I am worried that someone will be able to get into it. I've got the Find app installed on my iPhone 4S and it shows that both my iPad and stolen iPod are offline.
Q - if either the iPad or the iPod goes into an unlocked wifi area, will I be notified on my phone?
Q - can anyone actually break into my iPad as it is locked?
Q - how does iCloud work in terms of the info that's on my iPad - photos etc that I don't want to lose?
Q - I've reported this to the police - does Apple need to know?
I'd be very grateful for any advice, many thanks in advance

My Iphone has been Stolen. Location services off and blocked by 'Orange' network...anything else I can do to get it back or find it?

My iphone has been stolen. I unfortunatley did not have 'Find my iPhone' (I do now!), location services were turned off and Orange has blocked the sim & phone. Is there anythinig else I can do to track down my iPhone or atleast ruin the device for the culprits who stole it?

You're welcome.
A "black list" is the term used for a carrier preventing a cell phone that is reported lost or stolen by the owner from being activated with the carrier. Yes it is a legiitimate thing that some carriers provide but not all. Contact Orange and inquire if they do.

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.

Dear Sir,

Please suggest me the ways to block the iPhone.

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 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.

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, i have rang my provider and gotten it blocked, can somebody still access my photos if they manage to get it unlocked?

My iPhone has been stolen :-(, iv rang my provider and they have blocked it. What I'm wondering is, if the thief will be able to get it unlocked anywhere? if they can will they be able to see my photos? Or does disabling the phone wipe it? I have pics of my babies on there and I hate the thought that somebody could be looking through them right now :-( thank you In advance :-)

help
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.
