Stolen iPad removed from find my iPhone list. Now what?

See above

If the device is still setup with the Find my... service on it, it will automatically re-appear the next time the device connects to the Internet.
If not, and the device has been wiped or wasn't protected with a passcode and the Find service deactivated, there's nothing you can do.

How do I remove previous device from iCloud account? (It is removed from Find My iPhone and iCloud Backup)

I recently got a new iPhone and traded in my old one. At the store, the representatives erased the contents and settings of the old phone (though they did run into some difficulties because of a pre-installed profile and I think were successful after a few attempts) and removed the SIM card. However, the old device keeps showing up on my iCloud account. I removed it from Find My iPhone and deleted the stored backup for the phone, but it's still there. I've talked with Apple Support about it as well as called the store on what I should do. Apple cannot remove the device on my account for me (which is fair), but I think it's strange that I can't remove my own device either. It won't give me any option to.
The Apple people reassure me not to worry and that everything is probably "fine", but I don't like this uneasy feeling that my iCloud account (and who knows what other data) might have an open connection or hole somewhere that I'm not aware about.
Please help!

Some people I've talked to speculated (but could not confirm) that this "glitch" would be fixed once someone registered their own iCloud account to the old device; this would force the old device to be removed from my iCloud account and transferred to the new user. How long have you been experiencing this "glitch"? I'm guessing if Apple calls it a glitch on iCloud, it won't be fixed any time soon...

Stolen iPad recovered with Find my iPhone - It works!

Thought I would take a moment to share my experience using find my iPhone to recover my stolen iPad.
I recently had a layover at an airport in Michigan on my way to Toronto. Like an idiot, I left my iPad in the seat back on the first leg of my flight. I didn't realize it until I arrived at my destination in Toronto. I called the airline and was told that they couldn't send someone to look for it, but would happy to notify me when it was turned in if I filled out a lost article report on their website. They were confident that since it was left on the plane it would be turned in by their cleaning team.
After a few minutes I remembered Find my iPhone and activated the App on my iPhone. Within about 30 seconds I had a location on my iPad. It was still sitting in the terminal at the airport!
Fast forward to about 5:00 PM.....
I pull up the App again and see that my iPad is now moving away from the airport on the highway. After several minutes I watch as it turns into a neighborhood and pulls up outside of a house. There it stays for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile I have been sending alerts to the iPad screen with my contact information asking whoever has it to contact me immediately. Luckily they had not turned it off.
Now I am able to note the intersection nearest the location of my iPad and plug it into Google Maps. I find the house and drop a pin on it to reveal the street address. I then call the local Police, but they can't help me because I am not physically there to identify my property. Not what I was hoping for, but understandable.
My next idea was to find out if I can learn who owns the house and work out a way to conact them. I start looking for the local tax assessors office on the web and sure enough the database is accessible online. I now have the name of the owner in addition to the address! Now I figure I can contact the airline and give them this person's name to find out if they were working on the plan I was on. If so, at least they would be able to share that information with the airline and make it uncomfortable for the thief.
Now I am wondering if I can find the guys phone number! After a few web searches, I get a hit on the local version of the whitepages that gives me the phone number. I go ahead and call the number. To my surprise the guy answers the phone!
After getting hung up on a couple of times I was able to leave a voicemail with my contact information and let the person know I was pretty sure they worked for the airline since that is where I left my iPad. I assured him that I would not stop calling the airline with his name address and phone number until he lost his job unless he called me by tomorrow morning and made arrangements to return my property. Sure enough it turned out he works for the airline and called me back at 10:30 that night. After explaining to me that this was all a mistake he agreed to return it to me via fed ex next day delivery. I agreed to consider the matter closed and not pursue it any further with his employer if I received it back undamaged.
36 hours later I received my iPad back! I had initated a wipe on the device, so had to restore from back up, but besides that everything was great!
The moral of the story is to make sure you know how to use find my iPhone!! It could save you a lot of money!
PS, I know that I lost my iPad by leaving it on the plane. However, that does not give the airline employee the right to keep it. When he took it home with him, it went from lost to stolen...

Great sleuthing and story. It's great you got your iPad back. And that guy should really lose his job, but you said you wouldn't report him and I'm sure you're going to keep your word. I wonder though, how many other people's possessions he's taken home with him. How some people can sleep at night is beyond me.
I once went to the grocery store to pick up one item. I didn't need a cart. so of course I manged to remember other items I needed, and when I realized I couldn't hold everything, I put a bar of soap in my coat pocket and knew I'd remember to pay for it at checkout. When I got home, I realized I still had the bar of soap and I had not paid for it. So, I drove right back to store and walked up to the manager and explained what I did and that I wanted to pay for the bar of soap. I think he thought I'd lost my mind, but I could never take something that didn't belong to me.
Anyway, thanks for the good story with a great ending!

Removed device from find my iphone and now cannot restore

Hi,
I use an Iphone 4s. I forgot my passcode and in the attempt to unlock it disabled it so it says " disabled and connect to itunes" but here's the problem: prior to this I removed my device from the 'find my iphone' feature and now everytime I click restore/attempt recovery it says in itunes " remove from your iphone settings find my iphone feature"! Since my phone is disabled I obviously can't do that. Please help! I need to unlock this

No it actually didn't work!
It seemed it was rebooting it but when it lit up I still got the message as if the phone had been stolen saying to contact my boyfriend!
And then when I try to set it up it says the activation server is unavailable... so it's as if I hadn't recovered it at all!
Do you have any other suggestions I could try??

TS4006 iPad missing from Find My iPhone

I can see my iPad and iPod in iTunes on my mac. But when listing the devices in my iPod I can't see the iPad at all (only iPod and mac). What could be the reason? I would want to lock the iPad because it was stolen :/ Thanks for your help.

Anyone?

Can't access photo stream. Phone cannot be turn on. The guy at genius bar deleted my device from "find my iphone" and now it's completely gone.

Dear everyone,
My phone battery had been going worse and worse until it was completely dead two days ago. I booked the schedule at the apple store before it died and I've just been there today. The guy at the apple store asked me if I had the back up and told me to sign in to my iCloud, I did, then he clicked on "find my iphone" and deleted my device (my iphone). I didn't have a chance to do anything. The only thing I'm sure is that my photos from my phone had been automatically synchronized and I would like to have them back. I can't turn my phone on so it's impossible to connect to the internet and sign in. Please help.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It will automatically add itself back when it connects to a network.

Stolen Macbook has been removed from Find My iPhone.

My computer was stolen and I locked it through the iCloud feature. Now, I'm unable to see under the listed devices.
Is there a way to unregister a locked macbook from iCloud? Or has the disk been replaced/formatted.
I'm concerned about the data that was on there.
Thanks.

What type of account?

Activate iphone from find my iphone app?

i have disactivate my iphone from the ipad using the FIND MY IPHONE app .now that i am trying to open the device i cant ...i entered my apple id then i choose the language and my country but then something goes wrong ...what should i do ? please reply me your opinions

I'm not clear on what you're asking. If you locked your iPhone remotely, you cannot then unlock it through Find My iPhone. You'll have to do that on the iPhone itself.
You'll probably need to explain the situation you're facing in more detail before anyone can offer much in the way of advice.
Regards.

Stolen ipad, i am occasionally remove it from Find my iphone

Stolen ipad, i am occasionally remove it from Find my iphone on apple site, any variants to redo it?

If you remove it from your iCloud account in a web browser, the only way to add it back is with the device in your hands to re-enable find my ipad in your iCloud account settings on the iPad.

Ipad got stolen and then disappeared from "Find my IPhone"

Hello friends.
Few days ago Igot my IPad stolen. Once I found that out I have attempted to track it via "Finde my Iphone" app. Well it was switched off. I have sent the blocking command with the password and message. Nevertheless my Ipad just disappeared from Iclouds.
Please tell me, does it mean that my IPad has been nulled?
Couse otherwise there is a problem as most of my SMS messages got dublicated from my Iphone to IPad, and that is really ot good (BTW Apple made a big misstake doing so, they should have asked user befor enabling that feature, many persons had problems due to that).
Your comments will be very appriciated! Thank you in advance!

Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.
Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

If it was stolen seven months ago, then you are a little late to do anything about it. Buy a new one.

How do I remove my old iPhone from "Find My iPhone"?

How do I remove my old iPhone from the device list?

From the Help files in the app . . .
Remove Device
If you’re no longer using an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that was set up to use Find My iPhone, you can remove it from Find My iPhone when the device is offline (turned off or not connected to a data network, such as EDGE, 3G, or Wi-Fi). To remove the device, you need to sign in to me.com on a computer.
To remove your device from Find My iPhone:
On a computer, sign in to MobileMe Find My iPhone at me.com/find using your Apple ID email address and password.
If you’re a paid subscriber, your Apple ID is your MobileMe email address (@me.com or @mac.com) and password.
If you set up Find My iPhone on more than one device, click the device you want to remove in the Devices list on the left.
Click the blue arrow to the right of your device’s name (or, if the device hasn’t been located recently, the red clock ).
In the device window, click Remove (to the right of the device name).
The Remove link appears after Find My iPhone has tried and failed to connect to your device. This may take a few minutes.
When asked to confirm if you want to remove the device, click Remove.
If your device goes online again later and is still set up with your MobileMe account information, the device automatically reappears in Find My iPhone. If you still have access to the device, you can prevent it from reappearing in Find My iPhone by removing your MobileMe account information from the device. Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > [YourMobileMeAccount], and then tap Delete Account.
