URGENT! icloud not telling MPB location?

I received an email notification that my stolen macbook pro was locked today (as I requested) when it connected to wifi.  however iCloud is not showing a location for it.  It's supposed to show the 'last' location but it's only telling me how long ago it was on-line.  How can I find the location? THANKS! if anyone has info

Hi jefffromtoronto,
I'm sorry to hear about your stolen MacBook Pro. For devices that do not have built in GPS and cellular capabilities (for example, Mac laptops, as opposed to iPhones), location data is assembled from third-party sourced network data, and may not be available at all times and in all locations. For more information, you may find the following article helpful:
Note:   Maps and location information depend on data collection services provided by third parties. These services are subject to change and may not be available in all geographic areas, resulting in inaccurate or incomplete maps or location information.

  • Request to post Icloud not working locations. for 2 days almost from Ventura CA. I think they are not being truthful about th eamount of folks affected!

    request to post Icloud not working locations. for 2 days almost from Ventura CA. I think they are not being truthful about the percentage of folks affected!
    and what's with the minimalist response? We're working on it for 2 days? You can do beter than that for exsisting loyal customers can't you?

    I just spoke to a Support person with Apple.  I got the same answer, "We Don't Know", "but they are working on it...Blah, Blah.  I too live in Ventura, and have been without email since yesterday approx. 3:00 pm.
    The guy said, it's the same if you brought your computer into the shop.  We have to determine if it's hardware, or software, then fix the problem.
    Well, What about a BACK UP SERVER?  No real answer to that one.  Just, "Thanks, for your Patience."
    This really blows!!!

  • Can't find our iPhone.  iCloud not on.  can we locate by

    can't find iPhone, ICloud not on?

    You have to set Find My iPhone to ON before you lost it and also has Internet connection.
    If you don't, you can't locate it.
    Report to local Police and change all password that are used in iPhone.

  • ICloud is telling me that my account need to be verified, but i've already checked...what do I do?

    iCloud is telling me that my account need to be verified, but i've already checked...what do I do?

    Assuming you have an optical drive in or connected to your MBP, the easiest way to go is to do a backup of your existing iTunes library to DVDs (you may need several) .  In iTunes 9, this is done with selecting File->Library->Back Up to Disc... and following the directions.  I do not see that capability in the current iTunes, though, but if one is using Tiger, one is limited to iTunes 9.
    When the discs are burned, mounting any of the discs on the MBP should cause iTunes (you may need to have it up) to ask if you want to import the files.  It goes pretty smoothly, or at least it has for me in Mt. Lion and Win-7.  It's a little involved but it does work.

  • Could not access network location /hewlett-packard//.

    when i try to install VueMinder_Pro_Setup_8.0.1 on my brand new HP omni 120 AIO PC i get this message "could not access network location /hewlett-packard//." Can anybody help me with this problem pls thx.

    Hello Turkseunie:
               Wow new computer. I hope you enjoy it. What this message is telling is it is not picking up any signals from your router. Do you have any freinds that could help you set up your wireless router? In USA some wireless routers need to press a botton to connect the computers. Others might need a security code to connect to wireless routers provided by your Internet provider. Try moving the computer closer to wireless router. Then try it again.
           If you do not have any close by nieghbors could help you. Than please call your internet service they will help you for sure eighter by comming to your house or by phone. Here where I live we had to call the Internet provider as we connected to the wireless router. To allow our computers to connect.
           Your software insulation was a success it is working just fine. All need is to be able to pick up your signal that's all.
    Your help and support it located in your all programs list on right hand side. Click on it. When it opens type in setting up network or trouble   shooting network . Answers are provided . You are welcome.

  • Can't access iCloud mails from any location

    Hello,
    for a couple of days I am not able to access my iCloud ( @me.com ) mails from any location. I've already tried it on Apple Mail, iCloud.com via Mac and PC and Mail.app on iPad 5.0.1. Here are two screenshots:
    I appreciate any help.
    Thanks

    This should read 'iCloud', not 'MobileMe' - it looks as if your Mail application is still trying to access the MobileMe server after you've migrated. However if you have migrated it should be available at icloud.com.
    What operating system are you using on your Mac? did you migrate your MobileMe account at http://me.com/move ? You could check the Mail server settings and see if they conform with these:

  • HT202786 icloud photo sharing missing location data

    I have created a shared album using iCloud photo sharing with a friend. When I share some pictures from Photos on iPhone 6 with my friend using also iPhone 6 though tie shared album the pictures do not show the location data (geotag/map info). help me!

    I have the same issue: the Shared tab shows zero content, even though I have dozens of shared albums in PhotoStream (all visible from my other devices, actually). I'm using iCloud Drive for photos on my MacBook Air and iPhone, but on my main desktop computer (Mac Mini) I opted to keep using PhotoStream. I'm thus wondering if that's part of the problem?
    I'm using iCloud Drive for photos on my secondary devices, but on my main desktop device I have just about 1 TB of photos, and iCloud storage is WAY too expensive for that. (By contrast, OneDrive can handle my photo backups as a part of my 365 subscription.) Maybe I should turn iCloud Drive off on all devices and go back to my old system and see what happens. But I'm curious what sort of scenarios are causing the missing Shared Albums for other people.

  • I need an action that did revoke mistakenly called iCloud clear that I locate iphone iphone before that was stolen

    I need an action that did revoke mistakenly called iCloud clear that I locate iphone iphone before that was stolen

    Complain to the Attorney General about what? There is nothing in your story worth any such complaint. They will tell you the same.
    First you have payment difficulty so credit and the Edge program are not available to you. You have to be credit worthy to get any upgrade, unless you can pay full price for all those new devices.
    Can you?
    You are trying to get new contract plans, but since you are having paying on time and in full issues you will not get extended credit from any carrier.
    What I would do is go and port out to Boost or Virgin Mobile where you pay a reduced cost for each device and get unlimited everything for $40 to $50 a month, it is pre pay so if you don't pay you get cut off.
    Verizon although with the best coverage is also the highest priced.
    Good Luck

  • I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?

    I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?

    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.

  • Error message is not telling which field causing the issue!

    Hello
    I am developing the Adobe Interactive Form and launching this form from WebDynPro ABAP application, fine.
    This form has tonns of dropdown fields, mandatory fields, greyed out fields. Fine.
    I am filling the list the drop-down fields from webdynpro ABAP, but, i am filling list for only 80% of the drop-down fields, rest 20 % is not filling at all (bcz, business want to have those 20% dropd-owns on the form by thinking going further they require, this moment they dont need so they dont want to fill the lists)
    Now the form is launching on the browser, fine. But when user submits it i am getting the below erro:
    The Entered Value Is Not on the List of Valid Values.  (I am guessing this error is talking about the DROPDOWN fields only)
    I hv tonns of drop-down fields, so, its very difficult for me to go and trace each and every drop-down fielld!! But, i checked all the populated/entered values in the drop-down fields, they are all fine. Sone dropd-down fields are GREYED OUT, they are defaulted from webdynpro ABAP
    Pls. let me know How can know which field/drop-down is causing this issue? Wht are the possible causes for this error? Error is not telling which fields is making issue?
    How can i trace and how can i fix it, pls. let me know
    Thank you

    Thank you for your tips.
    But, as of my knowledge every thing (case sensitive, list box entries) are fine, not sure, why am getting this error! I will double chk again.
    But, thing is.... actually, i have 4 pages, depending on the logged in user, i will HIDE the pages (say, for me the 3 rd page will be hidden), i am hiding the pages by using JavaScript in the form.
    So, this error is not coming if i execute/launch all the 4 pages, but, its coming if i hide any page for any user!!
    By chance, do we debug to figure out which FIELD is CAUSING issue/this error?
    From where this message is coming, i mean, from the SAP's JAVA stack? Wht is the message ID and #?
    or is it Adobe's/Form's error?
    Thank you

  • Iphone 6 backup to iCloud not working

    Initially I had the issue where my phone was restoring from iCloud for 2 weeks and never finished. I was unable to do the upgrade to 8.1 because of this, so I canceled the restore and tried to do a backup to iCloud. I let it run (Estimating time remaining...) for a long time, like 30 minutes or something. Each time I tried this it would error off saying it couldn't finish the operation. One time it said it was going to take 2 days to complete the backup, but then it errors off as just mentioned. So I did a google search for "iPhone 6 backup to iCloud not working" and found a link to the forums for the incessant restore issue, it said to do a manual backup through iTunes, then immediately do a restore, then do the upgrade to 8.1.
    However, I still have the issue of the backup taking forever.
    Anyone encounter this issue and find a fix?
    Many thanks.

    I suggest you contact Apple Support.

  • IPhone maps favourites does not open the location

    Hello ,
    I have problem with iPhone maps i hope some one can help me.
    I have saved many places at favourites under different names. Now when I select one of these location the maps does not go to location , its like only searching by the saved name as its the location name.
    Is there a way to get them back ?
    or I can get the coordinates from these favourite ?
    thank you

    Sinuosalice,
    If you open an email with an attachment in Mail, there should be a rectangle with a dashed line border and an arrow pointing down. This means you can download it - to do that, just tap it.
    Instead, if it's already downloaded, there will be a bar on the screen with the name of the attachment, icon for the type of file, size, and an arrow (>) on the right. Tap the bar to open the attachment.
    Hope this helps,
    O.C.
