Find my iPhone, offline

Hi guys,.

I got my iPhone 6 stolen about 48 hours ago... I could only connect to the internet about 12 hours after it happened. The device does not always online on "Find my iPhone" so I was wondering can a thieves somehow wipe out all my info and my iPhone found? I want to say what use is if it is always off, no? they could have found a way to make it appear offline?

What are your thoughts, the person is restored and using apple product find my iPhone?

Bravo guys. I'll liked any kind of help.

Find my iPhone requires some form of data connection to the internet to send the details to the Apple servers. There is nothing you can do edit that and unfortunately, if the device is turned off or has the wifi and cellular data off, it won't communicate with Apple.

iCloud find my iPhone feature locks a device for the Apple ID, so thieves can reuse. If someone tries to erase or use iTunes to reinstall iOS it be asked your password Apple ID but they could erase your data in the process of installing iOS. Of course if the iPhone had a password that can stop reading your data, but they can't stop to find my iPhone without your password to iCloud.

Apple are doing their best to make it possible to find devices or make it unusable when fly, however the thieves try always to reuse or sell.

Good luck finding your device, it may be that someone she feeds finally on & it appears.

    The good news is, since you have find my iPhone, they will not be able to reuse the phone even if they are trying to restore. Unless they know your password, or you have a valid proof of purchase AGFI won't be deleted.

    So if the person who found the phone knows about it, he or she would rather go back because it would be of no use to them.

  • using find my iPhone for missing phone if offline

    Hi guys.

    My father in another State has lost his iphone, and I try to help him from another State. Needless to say it is not so good with these things.

    However, I HAVE configured previously find my iphone, iCloud backup etc and I saved all his passwords for him.

    the question that I am running is that his phone is displayed in offline mode.

    So what I did is check the box which says HIS GAME and I checked the LOST MODE and put MY PHONE NUMBER on the home screen as well as a note on a "reward".

    can someone help me to explain to my father, what is happening at this point and what is the worst case?

    1. am I correct in thinking that the phone's battery is probably dead? If you call the phone, it goes straight to voicemail.

    2. is it necessary for the phone to have a live battery AND WiFi Internet access or may have a good battery but not wifi access to - for example to PLAY a SOUND?

    3. If it can't find the iPhone what should I do then?

    A. do enter the store for the iphone, buy a new iphone and then connect the phone to ICLOUD and /download/ its data to the new?

    B. then he (or i) go in his account icloud and IPHONE CLEAR so that if someone finds his phone, they can get her info?

    I'm a little confused about a lot of that so it would be nice to get clarification. also I have to walk him through that, and his hearing is not very good, so it's going to be a real pain.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    4. the phone is not displayed on a map on the site to iCloud so I think it was either 24 hours since his phone ping a wifi to let card itself OR for some reason it has wifi off, in which case the map on the website of iCloud will not work until wifi is turned on?

    Thank you

  • Find my Iphone says device is in offline mode.

    Lost my phone and peripheral said findmyiphone is offline. The phone rings, but I guess that's not internet signal. Is there something I can do?

    You can put the unit lost mode. You have an access code on the device? To find my iPhone work, these things must be present. Find my iPhone must be activated before the loss. The device must be turned on, and finally, the device must have an active internet connection. If none of these things are missing, then you can not follow.

    I think that I lost on the bus, when I called customer service to inform them and told them that my phone has been turn off--I can't call. They said when the driver to perceive, it will turn off. Then, because the phone is in offline mode, that is why it does not?

    You have another way to find it, please give me some advice.

    Thank you for your help.

    If it is not online, it will be not traceable. If you think that it was found by the driver of the bus, go anywhere where they have their 'objects' and see if it is there.

  • iCloud &amp; find my iPhone

    I got my iphone stolen at the beginning of the month. Fortunately, I find my iPhone turned on. Cannot locate, but I did the auto erase operation once it connects to the Wifi. (Still called customer service to check my steps and listed IMEI / phone stolen from Verizon). I got a new phone and changed all my passwords.

    Since the 14, I have been making messages indicating of '[email protected]' " [notice] your lost iphone was dound, please refer to the assistance of apple apple.app0info-id.com/us specific location." Who sews already suspicious. Then I get a message from the same appl...@icloud saying ' Dear Sir, your identifier Apple was signed in iCloud on Alexandre iPhone.» If you believe an accessoed unauthorized person to your account, please in sin and manage your account immediately by going to apple.app-info-id.com/us"... always suspicious. Called apple, not possible to locate the phone, when I "Find my iPhone" through my site app and icloud (a play), it is always offline. So I gave up to find my phone.

    Since Sunday, now I get another set of messages "[email protected] , [email protected] ,[email protected]" (totally suspicious) all declaring «[[email protected]] [718-...» (my email real icloud and cell no.) Apple logo [find my iPhone] iPhone lost was properly located. Please visit www.apple-erd.com to find the specific location information. We will come to your aid to find the lost iPhone. [Apple support] »

    I tried to google the web address first, but nothing came, so I went to look at a computer without itunes or whatever it is (who you going to scam?) and links to a website that looks totally "find my iphone" logo with a whole. ' " They ask you to connect to your iCloud... Of course, but someone met similar messages has not signed?

    I don't really know what to do at this point. Verizon and apple don't see my old recorded phone anywhere and say 'they will not be able to get a new supplier, since the IMEI and serial number are listed as stolen. Is this true?

    Edit: I posted this on the forum iPhone with no responses. Now I get messages saying that my ' found lost iPhone and go to Apple Support www.iCloud-hk.net '

  • Find my iPhone = locked. How is - anyone can call on it?

    My daughter just lost her iPhone 5 s, for which she has activated locking using footprint.  Using find my iPhone, we have seen that his phone is not connected to the Internet (we travel outside the country of origin). We used to find my iPhone and locked the phone using the software, including the addition of a message/reward. Strangely, its called phone phone my wife (strange random noises, but no voice response)-how is this possible?

    Here's a possible scenario:

    One person recovered the lost iPhone.  Obviously, this person doesn't have access to his fingerprint stored on the iPhone.  But when you try to unlock the iPhone, this screen will appear, looking for password of the iPhone:

    From there, the person clicks on "Emergency" (circled above).

    If your wife's iPhone is classified among the emergency numbers (in the application of health), then it would be possible to call it from the iPhone.

  • that triggered him find my iphone application?

    recently, many of our devices have been hacked, my ipad is not damaged or stolen data. No access to my account. My ipad has never left my house. I was not raised him find my iphone app. I have even use icloud as had long since forgotten my id for it. How ever, I have all the details of the user appropriate all the correct passwords and have managed on the basis of work on my icloud identifiers. But still not get my unlocked ipad because apple has placed a lock of activation. Whenever I tried to cancel it with my security questions, he asks my birth date, but the web browser lets you enter the jj/mm but not YYYY so how can I possibly unlock with questions, and the e-mail address associated to the recovery no longer exists.

    An employee of apple care told that I must have my p.o.p. for them to do anything, and it's a joke because I bought it in cash and the retailer doesn't keep records of cash transactions which, to save.

    Why should I lose my ipad although I did absolutely nothing wrong.

    Please, someone tell me there is a way to solve this problem.

    I tried to address this issue for months.

    How will I know when and where to find my ipad app has been triggered?

    Unfortunately there isn't an easy way to solve what you describe.  As the mentioned Apple employee, you will need to provide proof of purchase to remove the lock of Activation (this is a security measure to ensure that the right person calls for its removal).

  • Find my iphone 7

    When I upgraded to iPhone 7, find my Iphone via iCloud always identifies as an iPhone 6... but send the tone and all 7.  I mean I forked over the cash, at least it can identify the right iphone. What should do?

    Set the name correctly in settings-> general-> about-> name

    Find my iPhone gets the name from there and its editable user.

    If you have restored from a backup of an iPhone 6 it would fix the iPhone 6 a name.
