Yes, according to the web this app was better in ios 6.1 or something like that as it allowed for multible ids to track.

So if you want to use Find My iPhone to find your son's phone, for example, just sign on your phone with his ID and password. I feel sure this should work because in the help files it always ends with "If you are using a friend's iPhone, please sign out". It actually was easy to use except that I had my phone and my iPad on the same account and every time I chose my iPad it gave the info on my phone instead. Oh, well.

It is a way for the parents to keep track of what kids are doing and givine each person their own backup and 5 gb storage space. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Saturday, February 22, 2014 3:18 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Heads Up: Learn to Use Where's My iPhone On the other device, run the Find My iPhone app and login with your apple ID and password.

From a PC, Find My iPhone through iCloud is completely useless to a screen reader user. I tried with Window-eyes and NVDA. My sighted wife can get to the iPhone, and make it play a sound, if desired even erase it, etc. But, none of that is accessible. I've written [email protected] and asked about this. Granted, I will likely get the usual we forwarded it to the people who deal with such things, which in too many cases seems to be people in the fifth basement in a locked room, with no internet connection. But, I'm letting my critical side come through. Obviously, Apple has done amazing things with the iDevices and they have, actually, responded to customer feedback. However, it seems awfully slow and frustrating at times. Maybe, there needs to be a polite push from hundreds, if not thousands, of blind users to get them to make this accessible from a PC. I have no idea how accessible it might be from a Mac. It is completely accessible from an iDevice.

Yes I have find my iphone active on all devices. Yet it only sees one of my devices and I can not see any map data on it other then to center the map. I wish they would provide some text information. Apple accessibility is lacking terribly with the icloud. At least for me using win 7 and ie 11 you just can not do much of anything. Androis with my s3 I can access everything I can lock the phone, make it ring etc. I don't remember if gave me an address I could read though. I'll have to go have a look at again. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Saturday, February 22, 2014 8:39 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Heads Up: Learn to Use Where's My iPhone Assuming you are talking about Apple's Find My iPhone app, here is the Apple support page with information and links where you can learn all you need to know to use Find My iPhone. http://support.apple.com/kb/ph2696 "There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing." - Aristotle On Feb 22, 2014, at 5:41 AM, SSEric <[email protected]> wrote: The part that makes it inaccessible is the map it shows. You can read what address the device is, but beyond that someone would have to look at a map. But, just knowing how to quickly get someone to that point before your phone is turned off could help you retrieve it. Unfortunately, by the time I figured out how to get to iCloud.com or download the app on another device, whoever had found my phone had turned it off. Some 12 hours later they still have not turned it in or called me to say they have it.

Ironically, just last week I suggested we figure out that in case, and today she lost her phone. Unfortunately, it appears whoever found it has disabled the phone before we had a chance to locate it. I guess this is one of the things to add to your fire drill routine. Eric -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
