A thief stole my Iphone and I want to lock the device and wipe information. What can I do?

Did you have Find My iPhone enabled with your iCloud account settings on the iPhone along with having the passcode lock feature enabled preventing unauthorized access with your iPhone?

Turn it on.
If it will not power on, try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons until the white Apple logo appears.

Try plugging it it to see if the screen comes on. If not then you're screen is damaged.

A thief stole my iPhone and changed the Apple ID address

My (another) Apple ID email address has been changed by somebody. How can I reset it? My iPhone was stolen and now and can't find it by iCloud or Find My iPhone.
Apple sent me an email to reset it (at 00:01), but it only available for 3hrs. How can I f**cking reset it?

The iMessages on my computer are not current to the messages on my iPhone. what can i do to get my iMessages on my computer to catch up to those on my iPhone?

the iMessages on my computer won't catch up to those on my iPhone like they normally do. please help me and tell me what i can do to fix this problem.

If you weren't able to sync the purchases to a computer previously and now your iPod needs to be restored so you can't sync it now, then you may be out of luck and will need to purchase your content again. Officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
You can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it.
Good luck.

Hi, i bought an iphone 5s online, but it is icloud locked and the account owner forget the password and now i cant use it, it ask me everytime the password to activate iphone. what i have to do to start to use my iphone?

what i have to do to unlock my iphone? i try to restore it with DFU mode but it doesn t work . the phone ask me everytime the password :(

Hello vlady1994,
It sounds like you purchased an iPhone from an independant party online and you are running into the Activation lock asking for the original owners Apple ID password. The original owner will have to first reset their account password:
Apple ID: Changing your password
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5624
Then they will need to remove the device from their account with this article:
Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4515
If the previous owner is not present
Make sure the device is powered on and connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Then contact the previous owner and ask them to follow these steps to remove the device from their account:
Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
Click All Devices to open a list of devices linked to their account, then select the device to be removed.
Click the Erase button to erase all content and settings from the device. When prompted, don't enter a phone number or message. Click Next until the device is erased.
When the erase is complete, click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
After the device is erased and removed from the account, you can proceed with the device setup process.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

I have the first iPad n iPhone, what do I do about new upgrade to iCloud?

What do I do about my Mac mail account?

Your iPad will work with iCloud, but your phone won't, or at least it won't with all of iClouds features. It may work with iCloud mail using the Mail Server Information to set it up manually.
You should migrate your account to iCloud before June 30 or you will lose it.

Stolen iPhone, what can the thief do?

I was mugged last night and the thief took my iPhone 4S. I proceeded as follows:
- Got in Find My iPhone on icloud, tried to locate it but couldn't. The thief must have turnt it off the minute he got it (it took me less than 10 minutes since the theft to logging in on icloud).
- Sent a "Remote block" followed by a "Remote wipe" right after.
- Called my carrier, locked the SIM and the phone using IMEI.
- Reported it to the police.
- Changed all my passwords.
The phone itself had a 4-digit password.
Now I'm left wondering what the thief can do/see with it. It looked to me as a common thug that just saw a chance at a fancy phone, but I'm still worried at what he might find out going through my contacts/mails/photos...

Was it locked with the passcode when they took it? If so, they are effectively locked out (no known exploit to get around the passcode lock). They can restore it in iTunes as new, but that removes all of your information, content and apps and sets it back to a new-device state. Since your carrier offers IMEI locking, they cannot activate it on that network, but unless your country and/or all the carriers in it offer a coordinated IMEI blocking service, they may be able to activate it on another carriers network, although they may have to hack it if it is carrier locked (or still sell it in another country, where your IMEI block has no effect).
Regardless, the passcode lock will have kept your information safe, as long as the screen was locked when they took it.
If the screen was not locked when the snatched it then they had a few minutes at least (you said 10 or so) to puruse your information, but you've covered yourself there anyway by chaning passwords and such already. If the device connects to the network long enough for it and the iCloud servers to establish communication, then your remote wipe would go through. Unless, of course, in those first ten minutes they were able to go in and simply delete your iCloud account - no iCloud account, no iCloud settings, thus no find-my-iPhone enabled (did you have restrictions enabled, and did you disable allowing changes to accounts by chance?).
You sound like you have done your best to cover your back and protect your informatin. Odds are they will already have restored the device as new, and either set it up on another network, or sold it off.

Apple does not block phones. Call the police and your carrier. Change all your passwords. If you had find my iPhone enabled before the phone waa stolen, you may be able to track it, and erase the phone.
