Why doesnt my iPad come up even as offline while using Find my iPhone

I need to summit to play a sound when its close to WiFI but it doesnt have that option as offline device.

A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
No content is affected by this procedure.

  • Ipad is showing as offline when using "find my iphone"

    Hi
    I am having trouble getting my ipad to be located using find my iphone.  This was working and has now stopped working (and did stop working prior to installing iOS 5 so im pretty certain its nothing to do with my software update the other day)
    I have downloaded the app, location services are on as are push notifications and of course find my iphone is enabled.  Ipad is definately on and connected to the net as its only the wifi version.
    When i try to find it, it says that its offline.  I have tried a whole lot of things so far and nothing as worked
    -  turned airplane mode off/on - restart - no luck
    -  turned push notifications off/on - no luck
    - turned location services off/on - no luck
    -  deleted my icloud account and then added again - no luck
    -  deleted the app and downloaded again (clutching at straws at this stage!) and still no luck
    I read somewhere that it could be to do with me recently changing my apple ID which i did a couple of weeks ago - the suggestion that i read was to change my apple id back and it should work.  Problem is that my old apple ID was 6 letters long and no capitals, so i can't change it back even if i wanted to
    Also what annoys my is that i can actually locate my iphone sweet as just not my ipad
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    No. It must be online in order to locate it.
    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular. 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:

  • My iPad was stolen yesterday. I cannot track it while using find my iPhone is saying is off.

    My iPad was stolen at the house yesterday. I have reported the matter to law enforcement. I have tried to track it using find my iPhone from my iPhone and it shows that the iPad is off. My work and important documents are there. Anyone who can assist on how I can trace it?

    You cannot trace it if it is offline.
    Hopefully you have a passcode on your iPad and you have backups of these documents.

  • Why does my iPad 2 keep on automatically locking while using anything ?

    While I'm using my iPad, it automatically locks for some reason. Even when I'm just playing apps or swiping the screen , I need help to fix it ?

    1. Close all inactive apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
    2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo.

  • Why doesnt my ipad have sound if though mute is off and version 6.1.3

    Why doesnt my ipad have sound if even though mute is off please help

    It is very possible that your mute is off, but your volume is still all the way down. Try turning up the volume with the side buttons.
    If that doesn't work, make sure that the app you are trying to use sound in doesn't have an additional mute option.
    If that doesn't work, it is possible that the problem lies within the iPad itself, inside the casing. I suggest going to the genius bar to have it looked at.

  • Why pop up message comes now if i use find my iphone to locate my family phone added with same id

    I was using find my iphone app to locate my kids as all my iphones were registred against one ID. They never come to know that I am locating their location and know where they are. Now I come to know that when i tried to locate them pop message comes to their phones that someone has tried to search your location. This is really not good. even if phone lost and other person can find out that we are trying to search the location. How to close this pop up messages or what is the solution?

    Once again - check that out:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4006
    "With iCloud and iOS 5 or later you can locate, play a sound on, display a message on and remotely lock, or erase your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac. If these features do not work as expected, use the troubleshooting steps below. "
    Translation: if you didn't mess up by clicking "play sound" or "display message", then your kids just got you. They already disabled location services I bet.
    Another translation if first was too subtle, there is no message if you just locating.

  • Can you use find my iPhone with iPad and iPhone and the same icloud account for both?

    I have an iPhone and iPad. I use find my iPhone for both. If I use the same icloud account for both, how do I separate them on the map, or if I lose one and want to remote wipe the lost one but not the one in my possession?

  • How would i use 'find my iphone' to locate my husband's ipad?

    My husband and i would like to be able to find each other's device, (iphone 4 and ipad) by using 'find my iphone'. We frequently lose each other.
    How would we set that up?
    Thanks!

    On both devices, go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account (if you haven't already done so), then turn on Find My iPhone.  After doing so, you can track devices by signing in with the iCloud ID that the device you are trying to track is using, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f2442.  You can do this from a computer by going to icloud.com, or from your iOS device by downloading the free Find My iPhone app from the App store.

  • I lost my ipad how to track it .have not installed find my iPhone app on my ipad .

    I lost my iPad Air .. How to trace it . Itz only a week I have got it .. Have not installed find my iPhone app in my ipad .. Itz is a wifi + 3G model .. What to do?

    You do not need to install the "Find My iPhone" App.
    If you had "Find My iPad" enabled in Settings > iCloud then you may be able to locate it. If not, you cannot locate it.
    If it was enabled then you can try locating it via http://icloud.com on a computer or the App "Find My iPhone" on another iDevice. Note: this will only work if your device is connected to a network and the device hasn't already been restored as new and/or "Find My iPad" has not been disabled on it. Note: Disabling "Find My iPad" is much more difficult in iOS 7.
    If you think that your device was stolen rather than lost then you should report it to the police. In either case you should contact your carrier, change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.
