Offline response with Find My iPhone

After signing in, all devices are listed as Offline. Nothing has been changed to my knowledge. What do I do to correct this?
Any help would be appreciated!

Hello Scrapperbug,
It sounds like you are unable to locate your iPhone at http://www.icloud.com, it tells you that your devices are offline even though it is turned on. I suggest the troubleshooting found in the following article named:
iCloud: Troubleshooting Find My iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4006
"No location available," "Offline," or "Location Services Off" alerts
This can occur if:
The date on your device is incorrect. Choose Settings > General > Date & Time to check and set the date.
Your iOS device is currently off or not connected to a data network (Edge, 3 or 4G, or Wi-Fi). Wait a few minutes and try again.
Your iPad (Wi-Fi only), iPod Touch, or Mac is currently off or not connected to a Wi-Fi network.
Location Services is not enabled on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch (Settings > Privacy) or on your Mac (Date & Time) preferences. Learn more about Location Services on your Mac:
OS X Mountain Lion or later
OS X Lion
You are located in a country where Apple does not offer this feature. This feature may not be available in all countries due to technical limitations or local law.
Location appears to be old or inaccurate
This can occur if you previously located your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac and your device has not yet provided an updated location to iCloud.
Note: Your device's last known location will be available for one day. After 24 hours, you will no longer be able to see this last known location if the device is offline or otherwise unable to connect to Find My iPhone to provide an updated location.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

TS4006 With find my iphone I keep getting an offline message but I'm connected

Anyone know why I keep getting an offline message on find my iphone when I'm connected?

"an error message" really doesn't tell us much!
Try the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

HT201365 can i clear my device with find my iphone if the device is switched off

can i clear my device with find my iphone if the device is switched off

I'm kinda guessing here, but your phone was stolen and you want to lock it, but it is showing offline? You can send an lock request, and a delete request, but if it is offline, it will not be received until the device goes back online again. If the device has the latest iOS on it, and Find My iPhone active, then it cannot be activated without your Apple ID and password. It will be a brick. And, if they try to activate, it will connect to the Internet and you will be able to track and the erase will activate.

If you activated the Find My iPhone service (in Settings>icloud), and if the device's batteries still have a charge, the device is not turned off and has not been reset and is connected to wifi, then you can try to track it. Using a computer's browser, log into icloud.com and look at the Find My iPhone page. On a device, invoke the Find My iPhone app (get it for free at the itunes app store) and log into the icloud account. Note: The Find My iPhone **app** does not turn on the service, you can only do that through Settings>icloud.
If the device is listed as "offline", then one of the requirements listed above is not met (like being connected to wifi, or if the device was stolen and the thief reset it).

My iPhone was stolen a few days ago. It appears to be offline on the Find My iPhone app. If the person who has it turns it on only for a brief moment and then turns it off immediately, will the location still be found? Once it returns to being offline will the location still be sent to me? And also, how can I retrieve my pictures from my iCloud?

Anything is possible.

HT204053 I have another Apple ID from when I originally set up this iPod, now I can't reset it as I am also set up with Find My iPhone which may have been doen by mistake I have been in contact with Apple itself and they can't fix the problem so far

i have originally forgotten my pass code for a new iPod Touch, now I have with Apple's help reset it to factory, my issue is due to the change in my Apple ID , the iPod will not let me set it up under the new Id or the old one.I also have been set up with find my iPhone and I don't remember if I did this or not, could have been the grand children trying to help out. Any ideas or suggestions, I haven't even used this yet and I have owned it for 6months already. Really am disappointed that the process is so difficult to navigate.

I have also noticed the same "problem". I do not fully understand the impact of using the same ID on multiple computers and devices if I want to keep them all in sync.

You need to download the free Find my iPhone application from the App Store.

TS4006 How can I find or track my iPad mini when it keeps showing offline on the find my iPhone app?

How can I find or track my iPad mini when it keeps showing offline on the find my iPhone app?

You can't. If its offline it can't be tracked. The device needs to be powered on and connected to an Internet connection to be trackable.

I've lost my iPhone5 like 40 hours ago. I already turned the Lost mode on with Find my iphone app. But my phone has no data plan so it could not connect to the internet at all. I reported to the police, too. What else can I do? Can anybody advise?

No...see the link I posted:
If you did not enable Find My iPhone on your missing device
If you did not enable Find My iPhone before it was lost or stolen, you can't use it to locate or protect your device, but you can still follow these steps:
Change your iCloud password to ensure that no one else can use your device to delete or make changes to your iCloud data.
Report your lost or stolen device to local law enforcement and your wireless carrier. Apple doesn't track or flag lost or stolen products, but you can use My Support Profile (supportprofile.apple.com) to find a list of serial numbers for products that you've purchased or registered with your Apple ID.

I am unable to use the ipad3 as the original owner has passed away, he had set it up with find my iPhone but now I have no way of getting his Apple ID or password. What can I do to use this?

I'm uunable to use iPad do to not knowing user name or password. Original owner passed away. It was set up with find my iPhone.

Take the device, its purchase receipt, and the owner's death certificate to a physical Apple Store or otherwise contact Apple.

I am signed in to my wifes iphone and it has been stolen. Tried tracking it with find my iphone, but it doesn't show up in my device.

I am signed in to my wifes iphone and it has been stolen. Tried tracking it with find my iphone, but it doesn't show up in my devices. She doesn't have a separate id. Any ideas why or what I could do to make it would be greatly appreciated.

It was still turned on, I am tracking with life360, but apple's tracking is more accurate. I just wondered why the phone doesn't show up in my devices on iCloud if I am signed in on it with my apple id. Thanks

How do i set up 2 or more devices with find my iphone

how do i set up 2 iphones with find my iphone (1 iphone 4s and 1 iphone 4)?

If both have iOS 5, just go to Settings > iCloud > Find my iPhone ON and that's all you need to do. You can download the free Find my iPhone app or go to http://icloud.com to see if it works.

Only if you walk around and look for it/ask others if they have seen it.

If you don't know the passcode you'll have to force it into recovery mode to restore it, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808. Then restore it to an existing backup, if you have one.
