TS4006 Can someone wipe and use my iphone that was stolen and if so can apple tell me if phone is being used
Can apple tell me if someone else is using my iphone if so can they give me the phone number as I have suspicions
Yes - your phone could be wiped
No - if you enabled find my iphone lock and running at least IOS 7 your phone can not be used but can be sold for parts. Prices on ebay for activation locked phones you can search yourself.
No Apple can't tell anything, it knows about your phone nothing, zilch, zero.

DA. Only if the device is online.
B. Only if you set up Find My Phone before the theft.
What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

So my iPhone that was stolen is disabled for 22,237,796 minutes and counting down. My computer with all my backup information is down so I can't restore it without losing everything on it. I really don't want to lose everything on my phone and I really don't want to wait that long. Is there anything I can do? Please help! ;(
The only options are:
Wait it out.
Sync the device to the computer it normally syncs with to remove the passcode.
Restore from backup or as new.
Without access to the computer it normally syncs with, your only real option is restore as new.
Keep in mind, pictures can be copied off the device on any computer regardless of the device being locked or not. -

TS4006 can i tell if my Itouch is being used if it is stolen?
Is there a way to see if the device is being used and if so where?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
If the device is wiped by you or another, you may not be able to locate the device (although some have reported they can) -
Can I remotely lock my iphone that was stolen?
Response me, please.
Yes. Login to iCloud.com from any computer, tap Find My Phone & you can do such.
Requires that Find My Phone be turned on, on your phone, & your phone be on & connected to the Internet. -

Help! My iPhone 4 was stolen, and it is in iOS 7, will the phone still be used? Or if they reformat it, my files would be deleted? I hope all my files will be deleted. Thanks for your help.
Hey ChrisJ4203, thanks for answering buddy , I still have a question.
I have a passcode for my iPhone, but I don't have the application Find my iPhone. Can I retrieve my photos, notes, reminders and all other data in my iPhone, I mean, if I bought another one, and connect it to my computer and go to iTunes then restore backup, cause I backup my iPhone last Oct 10, 2013, will I recover all the details in my iPhone that was stolen? It's like I'm still using my old iPhone's apps but with a new iPhone. Thanks.

I have an Iphone that was stolen and I want to delete all text messages remotely, but do not have the mobile me app installed. How do I do this?
You don't. Change all your passwords, tell you provider, tell the police, tell your insurance company.

When my husband and I first bought our iPhones, I was the only one with an Apple ID (since he never used iTunes). He used my apple id to get apps. Now he has his own ID, but my apple ID email address keeps popping up on his phone when he tries to download an app. We do not want to have all of the same apps on our phones. How can we change the ID on his phone? I already tried going to Settings>iTunes &App Store> and changing the Apple ID to his account email and that did not solve the problem. To make things worse, I recently changed my Apple ID email address (without getting a new ID) and I do not remember my old password (and this is the address that is popping up on his phone). He does not have any music on his phone and all of the Apps that he has are free. Any help you could offer would be great (-:
All apps are forever tied to the Apple ID that bought them. To stop your id from popping up, you need to delete the apps on his phone, and then repurchase them under his account.

My iPhone 4s was stolen this weekend and I did the Remote Lock. What exactly does that do? Also, if i do the Remote Wipe will that erase all of my data and impede anyone from ever using the phone?
The remote lock locks the iphone with a passcode that you set. By remote wiping the device it will simply restore it and clear it of all its data, but by doing this it will prevent you tracking it and communicating with it (e.g. remote locking it) in the future

My iPhone 5 was stolen from me in a train station, the phones battery was dead, the iphone hasnt bee turned on yet, everytime I call it it rings once and goes to voicemail which tells me that it is still dead, nobody has charged it nor turned it on yet, the find my iphone app says its offline, and the sprint service representatives have told me that the phone has not been used yet. I dont want to disconnect my phones service just yet, becasue even if the thief restores my phone, and wipes out all of my information they cannot and will not be able to use it as if its theres because my carrier would still be connected on it. My hopes is that the thief will attempt to use the phone to make a call or to receive a call from my phone and then I will be able to find them tracing their calls. I did this once from my a blackberry that was taken from me and I found it... My question is can they erase all the information from my phone to the point of using it although i have not disconnected it from sprint????

Yes.
Unless you are certain that it was stolen, don't overlook the fact it may have been turned in to a lost and found. -
