About LinkBacksHi guys,
Recently got an iPhone 4S yesterday and I want to ask a question.
My girlfriend has the Macbook Air with Lion installed. Now I configured its iCloud and the Find my Mac as well. Now I'm trying to access it to see its location but it's not showing up on my iPhone. My iMac is visible as well as the said iPhone (although it says "Location Services Disabled" on the iPhone, when it's configured properly and turned on) but her Macbook Air isn't on the list.
My question is, do I need to login my own account on her Macbook Air to be able to locate it?
Thanks!

Find My Mac / iPhone you can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you can not pick your friend's nose.

Re: Find My Mac / iPhone Ah now I know. I guess I'll have to tell her to use my Apple ID on her Macbook Air.

Re: Find My Mac / iPhone I think this is the right place to post this and if he's here, sorry about posting this.
One of our secretaries told me that one of our broker got caught by his wife through Find my iPhone. The wife called the husband cause it was 3am and the husband lied and said he's about to leave a bar with clients in Ortigas. But when the wife checked with the Find my iPhone, his location was in Makati somewhere in a residential area. She tracked it, and it moved after a few minutes after her call. She sent an emergency message or locked it. I'm not sure but, it was kinda funny.
Just like what Apple said, keep your Apple ID to yourself!airhootie likes this.2011 MBP 15" 2.2GHz i7
