TS4006 I want activate find my iPhone

iPhone 5s

If you lost your phone you cannot activate Find my iPhone remotely.
If you still have it, go to the iCloud menu in Settings and turn it on.

  • Says I've reached the maximum of free accounts for my device. It's a used iPhone 4s. Trying to activate find my iPhone. Please help!?

    We bought our son a used iPhone 4s almost 2 years ago. It was recently lost, but we were lucky enough to get it back. As a precaution in case it's lost or stolen again I'm trying to activate find my iPhone, but it tells me I have to have iCloud. But iCloud keeps telling me I have reached the maximum number of free accounts for this device. We have never had an iCloud account, so I'm assuming it was from the original owner. I have no way of contacting this person anymore because their eBay account is no longer active. The phone was factory reset when we bought it, and we reset it again today trying to see if that would fix it, but he lost all his stuff for nothing. We also updated the software. Is there anything we can do about this? Or at least maybe a different app that can track a phone that doesn't require iCloud? I don't know anything about Apple devices. Thanks so much!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately once all the 3 iCloud accounts have been created on your mobile device, you cannot create any more regardless of what you do. You will need to re-use one of the accounts that you have already created or create your new account on another device or computer.

    Unfortunately, the only place that you can activate "Find my phone" is from the device itself.

  • How can i activate find my iphone

    Hi, good morning now i facing a problem about how to activate ( find my iphone ) apps ?

    To activate Find my iPhone, the device has to turned on AND in your possession. You can't do it after the device has already been stolen or turned off.
    That would be like locking your front door after theives have already entered your home.

  • How can you activate find my iphone if you dont have the device you need to find

    I wasnt aware that i had to activate find my iphone and Apple themselves are being useless in helping. Is there anyway i can activate it without having the device as i have obviously lost it. or is there anyway of displaying a message even though it isnt registerted?

    No and no.
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order

  • Hi , my iphone was stolen how can I find it , I didn't  activate ( find my iphone ) but I have the iPhone serial number ?

    Hi , my iphone was stolen how can I find it , I didn't  activate ( find my iphone ) but I have the iPhone serial number ?
    please help me or tell me how can I restor me pictures from icloud ?

    You're welcome.  If you mean how does iCloud help you recover your photos, it can help in one of two ways:
    First, if you have an iCloud backup of your stolen phone, you can restore a replacement phone or another iOS deivce to your iCloud backup.  This would restore the photos from the backup to the device, along with your other data and settings.  You restore to an iCloud backup during the initial device setup.  If the device is already set up your have to erase it by going to Settings>General>Reset and tapping Erase All Content and Settings, then go back through the initial setup screens, and when given the option choose Restore from iCloud Backup.
    If your photos were in your photo stream, you can either sync another iOS device with your iCloud account and turn on photo stream, or you can sync your computer with your iCloud account and turn on photo stream, as outlined here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html.  This would allow you to access any photos that still remain in your photo stream.  (However, photos are only saved in photo stream for 30 days.  Any photos older than 30 days would be lost.)

  • I have lost my Iphone and want to know how to activate "find my iPhone"?  App on my Air book mac

    I want to know how to activate the app "find my iPhone" in this air book mac.  I have to app down loaded on this machine as well as my iPhone and havent got a clue how to get it activated through "I Tunes"....Can I get some advice?

    First of all, your lost iPhone should had been enabled the 'Find My iPhone' before you lost it.  If disabled, then there is nothing you can do to find the lost iPhone.
    If your iPhone was enabled in 'Find My iPhone', then click the app 'Find My iPhone' in your airbook mac.  It would prompt yuo for an Apple ID and its password.  Key-in the Apple ID and password of your lost iPhone.  Thereafter, use the Map to locate your iPhone's whereabouts.  This function only works when your lost iPhone has been turned on and with either WIFI connection or 3G internet connection.  Otherwise, this said app does not work.

  • HT201365 Hello ! I want to activate find my iphone

    Activate find my iphon

    Well, since we are users like you, no one here can activate your phone. Only you can activate that device, and it appears that you might have forgotten your Apple ID and password that were used to activate the device, is tha true? If you cannot remember those things, you cannot activate the phone, at all.

  • TS4006 How  do I find my iPhone using my Mac.

    Go to iCloud.com in your browser. Sign in and click on the Find My iPhone button:
    The rest is self evident.

  • Can support remotely activate "find my Iphone" if you ask them to?

    I lost my phone, it was not set up with the application, can I ask support to remotely activate the "find my iphone" app? If not then any answers on how to help me find the phone would be appreciated. The phone was out of charge when I last had it, and has a password on it, it was not set up with Icloud either. Anything will help, thank you.

    No, Apple does not and cannot remotely access a users products.  Find My Phone has to be turned on while in possession of the iPhone, it cannot be activated remotely.
