Hello I have an iPhone 3GS and I forgot my password so I restored it, it was successfully restored but while following the steps when I connected to itunes it says Disconnect and insert SIM card, but there is SIM card in it (please help me)
The SIM card already in it is international
If the phone was hacked, you can't get help here. It would not necessarily have to have been hacked. Legitimately unlocked iPhones are available from Apple in the U.S. and AT&T (the only US GSM carrier who ever carried the 3GS) offers unlocking.
Try a replacement SIM from your carrier.

Don't bother mate. I did it yesterday and it's crap! In the process of going back to 5.1.1. That's how bad it is!

I have an ipod touch and am trying to update ios to 5.1 from 4.2.1. When I connect to itunes, it says it is up to date but it is not. How do I update?
Please verify the model number from the back. If it is A1288, it is a 2nd generation unit and can not be upgraded beyond 4.2.1

I have a 16GB iPhone 3GS. Tried synching my phone through iTunes (11.0.1 I think... on a 2009 Macbook Pro). Now when I connect to iTunes, it says it does not recognise the content on my phone. Is this because my phone (and laptop) are too old?
Also, when I tried to Restore the settings, an Error Message pops up that says " The iPhone software update server could not be contacted. The requested resource was not found.
I'm trying to free up space on my phone by removing [literally] thousands of old photos which were originally synched to the phone, because I had forgotten to uncheck the photos button when I synched it ages ago.
I have also tried synching it on my 24" iMac (running OSX Snow Leopard). But again, when I try restoring the phone through itunes, it says the file is corrupted. It sggests unplugging the device, and then plugging it in again. I have done this numerous times with no success.
I'm guessing it must be because my phone (and versions of iTunes, and OSX) are all too old.
Please can anybody help.
Cheers,

Hello, I have an Iphone 3GS and can't connect to Game Center. It recognizes my apple ID account, states it was never used with Game Center. Then asks for country, birthdate, then returns to ask country again, then birthdate, and returns to the loop. Never ends the loop unless I cancel the setup process. I have restored the iphone to the factory settings and restored the backup, but did not work. Any suggestions on what can be the problem? thank you.
I just read another post that says you can go into a game that allows for multiple players and utalizes game center and enter your account information that way. I haven't tried it yet, but it seems to work for others that had this issue.

I have an iPhone 3S. I forgot to install iOS5 on it before to pass to iCloud. Now, I am unable to sync it with iTunes and update to iOS5. Is there a solution?iPhone
Hi jeffmbellucci,
If you are having issues dragging music to your iPhone 4 after a recent upgrade to iOS 7, you may want to verify that the phone is still set to "Manually manage music and videos." You may find the following article helpful:

No. You need a computer with iTunes and an internet connection.

My iPhone became wet at the beach. I put it in rice for 4 days. When I connect to itunes, it says the phone must be restored. It starts and then gives either the error 2001, or 2006. What exactly does this mean, and is it worth getting repaired?
Thank you...http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275
Water damage isn't covered by warranty, but you could always purchase a refurbished device from Apple. -
IPhone 5 screen is black, when I connect to ITunes it says "to allow access please respond to your Iphone". Impossible with a black screen, does anyone know what the prompt is?
Hey 11doski,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the display has a dark screen. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
Display has no backlight or dark screen
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
