Will Apple release Find My iPhone for iMac, Macbook, etc?

I think it would be a good idea for those who would want to locate their iPad, iPhone, iPod touch from their Mac, iMac or Macbook

If you login to me.com and goto "locate my iPhone" you will be able to find the location of the device.

  • When will Apple release the flash player for ios?, This functionality is essential.

    This excuse that consumes a lot of battery unconvincing, until the android supports flash.

    Battery life is but one of many reasons Apple didn't approve of a Flash player for iOS. However, as stated by Stedman1, Adobe has stopped future development of all mobile flash players, not just iOS.
    There are some third party apps in the App store that will allow some flash content to be utilized. Puffin, Skyfire Photon, Playable, are just a handful of the apps available in the App Store. Feel free to try out some of those, but read the descriptions and reviews first to make sure it will allow the types of content that you are hoping to access.

  • Will Apple release ITunes for Windows XP 64bit?

    Will Apple release ITunes for Windows XP 64bit?

    WARNING: This procedure involves moving, deleting, modifying, and copying system files and possibly sytem registry entries. If you make a mistake you can kill your system [I killed two of mine until I
    figured out the problem with the outdated GEAR drivers]therefore:
    1)Back up your entire system or better yet, get a cheapie new HD like Western digital 2 TB for $69-129 depending whether on sale or not and reinstall your system from scratch on the new drive. If
    computer kraps out you just put the old drive back in.
    2) Some of the procedures here may not be exactly what YOU see on YOUR specific model of computer. I've tried it on a COMPAQ sr1610nx with xp64, I've tried it on a Dell Alien with xp64, and on a
    Gateway GM5442, and will now try from scratch to format harddrive, load xp64, device drivers, OS service packs and patches, AVG free, flash, java, and itunes.
    3) I wrote these instructions down from memory. Read and understand entire procedure before you start. There is some troubleshooting you may need to do to make it work on your particular system. This
    procedure works on 3 different models of 64 bit cpus. One CPU is an INTEL(Gateway), one CPU is an AMD X2 64-bit 4800+ Toledo(Compaq sr1610ns), and the other is an AMD x2 64-bit 3500+(DELL Alien). This
    shows the capability exists on both Intel and AMD x64 architectures.
    4) The current version 10.6.3 will work with modifications(including syncing ipod with ios5 and syncing cd and dvdrom ).
    PROCEDURE: 1)Using you IE 64-bit browser download iTunes64Setup.exe from URL http://www.apple.com/iTunes/download/ to a new directory (For Example: ITUNES-1063-XPX64-TEST).
    2) Using you IE 64-Bit browser download GEAR Drivers at URL http://www.gearsoftware.com/downloads.php?dir=updates/windows/drivers/&file=Driv er_Installer_x86_x64.exe.
    3)Using your IE 64 browser download ORCA Editor at URL http://download.cnet.com/1770-20_4-0.html?query=Orca&tag=404&searchtype=download s .
    4) Using your IE 64 browser download 7-Zip at URL http://download.cnet.com/1770-20_4-0.html?query=7-Zip&platformSelect=&tag=srch&s
    earchtype=downloads&filterName=platform%3DWindows%2CMac%2CiOS%2CAndroid%2CWebwar e%2CMobile&filter=platform%3DWindows%2CMac%2CiOS%2CAndroid%2CWebware%2CMobile .
    5)Use 7-Zip to extract Itunes64Setup.exe into sub components.
    6)Use Orca to open and edit iTunes64.msi.
    7)Change Launch Condition from VersionNT64>=600 to VersionNT64>=501. Change ((VersionNT=501 AND ServicePackLevel>=2) OR VersionNT>501) to ((VersionNT=501 AND ServicePackLevel>=2) OR VersionNT>=501)
    8) Save and exit iTunes64.msi.
    9) Use Orca to open and edit AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi.
    10) Change Launch Condition from (VersionNT=501 And ServicePackLevel>=2) Or VersionNT>=600 to (VersionNT=501 And ServicePackLevel>=2) Or VersionNT>=501
    11) Save and exit AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi.
    12) Use Orca to open and edit AppleApplicationSupport64.msi.
    13) Change Launch Condition from (VersionNT>=501 AND ServicePackLevel>=2) OR VersionNT>501 to (VersionNT>=501 AND ServicePackLevel>=2) OR VersionNT>=501
    14) Save and exit AppleApplicationSupport64.msi.
    15) Use Orca to open and edit Bonjour64.msi.
    16) Change Launch Condition from (VersionNT>=501 AND ServicePackLevel>=2) OR VersionNT>501 to (VersionNT>=501 AND ServicePackLevel>=2) OR VersionNT>=501
    18) Install itunes64.
    19) Shutdown and Reboot.
    20) Search your PC for GEAR*.*
    21) Delete all the files found that are deleteable.This will get rid of the bogus Gear drivers (Version 2.2.0.1 from 2008 and 2009) that iTunes installs.
    22) Run Gear drivers installer you downloaded earlier. This will load the correct Gear drivers (Version 2.2.2.0 [or 2.02.02.00- depending where you look in windows for the version number] from 2011 and
    2012 drivers versus defective 2008 and 2009 drivers). The Gear driver connects the cdrom to itunes for sync. The usbappl driver connects the iPod to itunes for sync (Via the USB).
    23) Ensure the file GEARAspiWDM.sys, usbaapl64.sys, also ksthunk.sys is in C:\Windows\system32\Drivers. If not search and locate these files. Then copy them to the correct directories Remember to set
    your More advanced options to Search system folders, Search hidden files and folders, and search subfolders.
    24) Now you must verify registry entry for UpperFilters exists and has GEARAspiWDM for value.
    25) Go to Start, then Run, then enter regedit, then OK. Select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, then SYSTEM, then CurrentControlSet, then Control, then Class, then {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}, then
    UpperFilters, right mouse click and select modify, then verify the Value data has the entry GEARAspiWDM. If not go back to {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} and right mouse click select new, then
    Multi-String Value, then name it UpperFilters, right mouse click and select modify and enter GEARAspiWDM for Value data, select OK and close registry.
    26) Shutdown and reboot.
    27) Now you need to update the cdrom/dvd driver and the USB driver.
    28) Go to Start, then Control Panel, then System, then Hardware, then Device Manager, select DVD/CD-ROM drives, select Don't search. I will choose the driver to install, then select Next, ensure Show
    compatible hardware is checked. Select CD-ROM as the driver, then Next, then Finish.
    29) Shutdown and reboot.
    30) Start computer, plug in iPod to USB, wait for windows to detect the device, probably detected as a camera. Go to Control Panel, then System, then Hardware, then Device Manager, and find the iPod.
    31) Right mouse click and select Properties, then Driver.
    32) Select Update Driver, then select Install from a specific location (Advanced), then Next, then select Don't search, I will choose the driver to install, then select Next, ensure Show compatible
    hardware box is checked, select USB driver for iPod, then Next, then Finish.
    33) Shutdown and Reboot.
    34) Start iTunes. Ignore the message iTunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTUnes (This message comes from the device driver install failure for the
    cdroms because the current Itunes installer still contains the bogus outdated Gear drivers). Select OK.
    35) Now Itunes should work.

  • We have two iphones and only one ipad.  We want to be able to use "find my iphone" for both phones, which have separate apple ids.  How do we get our ipad to accept this?

    We have two iphones and only one ipad - no mac.  We want to be able to use "find my iphone" for both phones.  How do we get the ipad to accept two iphone accounts?  icloud is enabled on all three devices. 

    Also, be aware of the following:
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  Something as small as an iPod/iPhone should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • Will Apple replace a bent iPhone 6?

    Will Apple replace a bent iPhone 6?

    They ought to.  I'm going to find out when I visit the store this week.
    The bend on my iPhone 6 is directly under the volume buttons. I noticed it today. I didn't believe this was a common problem. I thought it would only happen if abused. But my iPhone 6 is now bent. I have a case on it. I kept it in my purse, in it's own pocket, or on my desk at home.  Now I've got to take it to the Apple store and hope for a nice "Genius." The idea of having to pay for the damage, after taking good care of it and only owning it for 2 weeks, is really frustrating. 
    I hope everyone with this problem makes it known somewhere online because Apple ought to be responsible for the design flaw. Maybe they could reinforce that area in future production.
