Some problems reported by iPhone users following the release of iPhone OS 3.0 and the iPhone 3GS were wit Apple’s MobileMe feature called “Find My iPhone”.
Find My iPhone remembers all your devices, including any old iPhones that you may have sold some time ago or have not seen in ages. Until now, there was no way to make Find My iPhone forget that old iPhone.
Apple has quietly released an updated Apple support document, “MobileMe, iPhone OS 3.0: Troubleshooting Find My iPhone and Remote Wipe,” which now states:
Previously-owned iPhone/iPod touch appears at me.com/account
If your iPhone/iPod touch was linked with your MobileMe account, it may still appear when you log in to www.me.com/account, even if you no longer possess the iPhone/iPod touch. If the device is offline, you can choose to remove the device from the Find My iPhone section of www.me.com/account by clicking Remove below the name of the iPhone or iPod touch.
Note: If your device is still configured with your MobileMe membername and password, the next time the device connects to the Internet, it will be added to the Find My iPhone page again.
