Stolen iPhone, found on map, but no sound!

Hi,
Ok so I just located my stolen iPhone on me.com, and on the map I can see it is in someones garden. However, I cannot make it sound by pressing "Display message/sound" on the me.com page. Why? Because I first pressed "lock phone" on the me.com page?
Is there anyway I can make it make a noise? I tried calling my phone, but now no signals go through, the answering machine goes on directly (probably because I pressed lock).
Any ideas????

I just logged into me.com and found my iPhone. Then I put it in airplane mode, and tried to refresh the me web page, and you're right, it spun for awhile, then came back with the last location.
I suppose in some ways that makes sense, so you would at least know the last location where the device was actually able to be found. The fact that it has not updated likely just means someone found it and turned it off, or has moved it somewhere with no 3G or wifi available?
Check it periodically to see if it crops back up - good thing you locked it. Anyone who has it now can still restore it as new and use it, but that will wipe out all your personal info by doing so.
Sorry - maybe it will pop up again on the map.

My iPhone 5 Records Videos but without any Sound. Restart the phone does Not help! Any Ideals???

GLAD I COULD HELP!
for the key clicks try to go under settings>sounds and see if the "change woth buttons" is pushed to ON. and try to change the volume when your clicking the keyboard
if that doesnt work, then try playing a song to see if your volume is down, or if your speakers are capoot

Iphone 4s will ring but other sounds do not work

We have an iPhone that was submerged in water last year. After allowing to dry out completely it now works well. We use it as an iPod since we have replaced this phone. We have been using it on an iHome to play music but I found out today that the ringtones work but no other sounds. Is there a way to fix this?

The problem is likely to be with the dock connector at the bottom of the iphone. It is possible that the iphone thinks that an accessory is plugged-in and its sending audio to that accessory Or it could be the problem with the headphone jack.
1) plug in the headphones and press volume up or down button. It should change the headphone volume and display on screen.
2) unplug the headphones and press the volume up or down button. If the phone still shows that headphone volume is being changed, then you need to clean the headphone jack properly. You can use alcohol or contact cleaner or deodorant with alcohol
If the above is unsucessful, then your dock is the likely cause. Try cleaning it with cotton and alcohol or contact cleaner or deodorant with alcohol and hope for the best. If nothing fixes the phone then there is a short circuit and part needs to be replaced. Also make sure you turn off the phone before doing any cleaning and do not use more than a drop at a time to clean..

I tried to register my stolen iPhone onto My Profile but it says that it's registered under another apple ID (which is not mine) What does this mean? Does it mean the person who stole my phone is using my phone under another Apple ID?!

Hi everyone,
My iphone and Ipad got stollen yesterday...
I registered my Ipad onto "my profile" but when I tried to register my Iphone 4 onto "My Profile" it says that the product has been registered under ANOTHER apple ID. What does this mean?! Does this mean that the thief is using my phone under a new apple ID?!
I am getitng abit paranoid because when I tried to download a new app onto my macbook pro, it says that someone had accessed my account from a new computer. I am so scared.. as I know that if they are able to access my apple ID account they can see my billing/card details. I tried to delete my billing address and card details on my apple ID account to prevent this from occuring but I can't. Please help
Many thanks,
Kim

You should change your AppleID password NOW. And if it says it was registered under another AppleID, the thief has probably done it.

Does apple care cover stolen iphones?

Does anyone know if Apple Care covers stolen Iphones?

Not confused but true, there is a difference between warranties and insurance policies, in most cases. After confirming with my agent, my insurance policy on my apple products is no longer available to new clients. My agent stated it was too "liberal" in its coverage and was subject to fraud.
Apple makes great products and the first year coverage is fantastic plus my insurance coverage I'm double covered for 12 months. Anything that renders my apple products useless, including unexplained loss or diminished functionality is covered by my insurance policy(again, they don't offer this level of coverage anymore so I don't want to tease anyone here) I would however recommend looking for similar coverage from other insurance companies.
I also recommend adding AppleCare plus AND standard insurance on you "big apple" stuff.
If you travel a lot, it's a no brainer to ask your insurer about loss, breakage, and theft and deductibles when out of country. You may be happy with your coverage or opt to add more insurance.
Again my coverage is every bit as good as AppleCare plus and very pleased with it, however case in point, true story, a student traveling with us in London had his usa iphone 4S die on him (1.5 years old with AppleCare plus) and we booked time at a apple store, and he received a new one not a refurb, 20 min in/out, restored it on iCloud and his MacBook. It was handled perfectly by apple. If my iPhone 5 dies next year in London, I will get a new phone with my insurance BUT not instantly in London at an apple store. So mr black is correct.
Short story, long .....if you travel or subject to theft (student etc) get both, for two years you will be be COVERED to the max and then after that you will be covered.

My "Find My iPhone" says on map that my phone is here at my house...but it's not! So...I guess that feature doesn't work?

My "Find My iPhone" says on map that my phone is here at my house...but it's not! So...I guess that "Find my iphone" feature doesn't work? Very frustrating. My iphone volume might be turned off ...does that make a difference if you use the sound locator on the find my iphone?
Tech support INSISTS that the iphone locator on i Cloud is accurate. How can it be? My phone is NOT here!

Is your device showing a green or grey dot?
Here is some background on how location services works.

Mine always works fine... it's say within 25' of where I am.

Hello I would like to ask if someone knows how can I found my stolen iphone?

Hello I would like to ask if someone knows how can I found my stolen iphone?

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.
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, then phone cannot be 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.

What should I do if I found a stolen iphone

I found a stolen iphone, but I can not сontact this owner

What do you mean by that? They're refusing to accept it? Then get that in writing, that you've attempted to turn it in to law enforcement, and they refuse to accept it. Other than that, all you could do is turn it over to the related carrier (if you can see which carrier it's connected to) or to the nearest business where it was found. If no one will accept it, then I'd recommend dropping it in the trash and walking away from it. If it's been reported stolen (and you have no way of knowing that for sure) and you're found in possession of property listed as stolen, then your local law enforcement might then decide to get involved in the wrong way.
Cover yourself. If the local law enforcement won't accept it, get that documented, and then get rid of it. Unless there's a Lost Mode message on the device stating how to contact the previous owner.

HT201365 Stolen iPhone 5 but installed Find My Phone after it was stolen and bought new phone. Can locate old phone.

My iPhone 5was stolen but unfortunately I installed the find my phone app after it was stolen and now have another iPhone. I can still track my stolen iPhone on my iPad and it is in my neighborhood but I can't exactly knock on the door and demand it back. If I play the sound and send messages they appear on my new phone, however. If I can't get my old phone back I want to make it impossible for the new user to operate it. I have erased all the data on the old phone to the best of my knowledge. I don't want to erase it as I'm scared all the data on my new phone will be erased.please help. I am in Indonesia.

But did you enable Find My iPhone in settings on your stolen phone before it was stolen? If you didn't, you can't track it or do anything else using Find My iPhone.

How are you doing that if you didn't enable Find My iPhone on it before it was stolen? Are you sure you aren't tracking your new phone rather than your old one?
If I play the sound and send messages they appear on my new phone
That's an indication that you are tracking your new phone, not your old one.

I like the new iOS 7 for iphone... But i think it's not a good idea to allow switch the iphone on flight mode when it is locked.. What happens if your iphone is stolen or lost? You couldn't be able to locate it using find my iphone... Can i remove this from the bottom menu?

And have your phone set to require a passcode before it can be accessed.

Why is it that my iPhone 4 suddenly lost the sound bar in music and YouTube? I am able to make phone calls, but otherwise my iPhone is silent. It says that it is playing music, but no sound is emmitted, nor am I able to change this.

Why is it that my iPhone 4 suddenly lost the sound bar in music and YouTube? I am able to make phone calls and hear everything just fine. but otherwise my iPhone is silent. It says that it is playing music, but no sound is emmitted, nor am I able to change this.

Not knowing what steps were included in "all the troubleshooting possible with Apple people," I'll suggest you give the phone a chance to reprovision your cellular account.
First turn off Wi-Fi. Then power off your phone. Hold the Sleep/Wake button until you see the power off slider. Then slide to power off. Turn the phone back on. After the phone starts watch to see if No Serive is displayed. Hopefully after 15-30 seconds that will change to the name of your cellular service provider and finally indicate LTE or 4G as well as include some dots indicating signal strength. You can then turn Wi-Fi back on.
