TS4006 I located my remote locked my sons ipod via find my iphone app with the passcode "1234" and now it says passcode invalid? I have no computer to sync it to either?
ugh- My son left his ipod in a friends car. I remote locked it with another ipod. I entered "1234" as the passcode (stupid me?) and when we got it back it says invalid and keeps locking us out. I was never sent an email that the password would be changed if I did this. My problem is that I never synced it and the usb ports do not work anyhow on the laptop. He has only had it since March-this is beyond frustrating. I dont know what to do. Help?? Thank you

I didnt set find my iphone app in the phone, is there any other way to locate it?
I didnt install the: FIND MY IPHONE APP in the iphone, I just downloaded it on my computer, is the any other way to locate it?
The app is only used to find other devices. It does not turn on the service, which is done by going to Settings>iCloud, turn on Find My iPhone.
If you didn't do that, there's no way to locate a lost device. Sorry. -
I changed my apple id and password online, but my iphone still has the old id and now it won't accept either the new or old password
To change the iCloud ID on your device you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.
If you are changing to a different iCloud account and need to migrate your data to this new account, when you are prompted about what to do with the iCloud data be sure to select Keep On My iPad. Then when you sign into the new account, when prompted choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account. -
About three weeks ago, I was sitting in class, got bored, and decided that I'd try and see what would happen if I locked my Macbook Pro (17-inch 2.66 GHz on 10.8.2, early 2009) from Find My iPhone. I'm concerned because my Mac has never locked, despite being used daily, on a variety of networks, including buying from iTunes, and using Messages. I've turned off the computer multiple times since, and I really can't think of any other scenarios that I'd have to go through to get the Mac connected to Find My Mac. Is there anything I can do or is this just an oversight by Apple?
I think this is what you're saying, but I'm not sure:
You had turned on Find My Mac on your MacBook Pro in System Preferences > iCloud.
Then (while in class) you did a Find My Mac from your iPhone. Presumably you did indeed see it pop up on a map there in its correct location. You then sent a "lock" command which never took effect. Further, you received an email confirmation that the lock commend actually got sent.
Is that right? -

Since upgrading to iOS8 iTunes no longer recognizes my iPhone5 when I connect to SYNC or BACKUP my iPhone5. Thus, these features are no longer available. When I click on the DEVICES tab, the window is dim, and will therefore not allow me to SYNC or BACKUP my iPhone5 on my iMac. I use iTune 11.4 and iOS8.
[email protected]After the first install of iOS8 my iPhone5 locked up with a picture of a cord connected to a device linking to iTunes. After taking my iPhone5 to the Apple Store, an Expert was able to get my phone operational again. However, when I returned home I found I no longer had options in iTunes to SYNC or BACKUP my iPhone5. I suspect that ITunes does not recognize my IPhone any longer. For the past 1.5 years I have no problems updating or syncing my iPhone…it was only after I upgraded to iOS8 last week.

My iPhone was accidentally locked down (find my iPhone app)
My iPhone was accidentally locked down with "Find my iPhone" by the previous owner while I was recording a interview for my exams.I already contacted the previous owner, who said that he dealeted my phone device from his "find my iphone" app. The Iphone also inform that my sim-card is locked and asks for the pin-code. But it is not showing the telephones keypad.
Is it still possible to get the recorded file or is it deleted now that my phone is locked?
Hope you can help.
Line Mayland CarlsenWhat you need to do is dependent on what is wrong with it. If the screen broke, or you have reason to believe that other hardware damage occurred due either to the fall or it getting wet, then you will need to take or send the iPhone for service. Apple does not repair iPhones, but will replace the entire iPhone for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/
There are independent iPhone repair services that may be able to fix the iPhone for less. Do a web search for "iphone repair".
Regards.

I downloaded my sons ipod 5g with the latest iOS and now when we try to sync it says we have no space, but there is nothing but a few apps on his ipod and he has plenty of space. The messege says that most of is space is taken up by video but there is no video or music on his ipod right now. I've tried to reset his ipod but that did not help the problem. What can I do?
Did you try to set it up again as new device?

Do I need to leave location services on all the time to use the "Find my iPhone" app?
Do I need to leave location services on all the time to use the "Find my iPhone" app?
The Find My IPhone app is used to find OTHER lost devices, it does nothing to make your device "findable". To make it findable, you must turn on "Find My IPhone" in settings. And than you need location services on. This however does not guarantee that you'll always find it if lost. A thief can set it to factory settings, even remove the sim card. Then it'll be unfindable.

How do I get my iPad to stop locking because of the Find my iPhone app?

The Find My iPhone app has nothing to do with this.

Has anybody had a similar problem , after charging my iPhone 5s (with the Apple charger and cable ) , the screen on the phone has locked with the Apple Symbol , the phone will neither switch on or off for me to take any action , restore , upgrade etc
I think your iPhone must be stuck in Apple logo. If so, you need to read the help guide: iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Apple Support

I lost my iphone in Guatemala City and just downloaded the Find My iPhone app to my MacBook Pro. How do I launch the app & locate my phone?
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)
