HT1212 I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to ATT store today, they put a new sim card in it. but now itunes needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.
I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to an AT&T store today, they put a new sim card in it. and told me to go home, log on to itunes, and restore the phone to "factory settings".But itunes says the phone is locked and it needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.
Any workaround? Or, am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks so much.

Sounds like you may be the owner of a new phone! If you don't need or want it and no one claims it you probably can sell it. Check eBay to see what the going rate is.
You are to be commended for at least trying to find the owner. Many wouldn't.
Best.

Only the carrier it's locked to can authorize unlocking it. Contact Orange.

New mail when opened shows different mail for over one year ago!!
When a new message arrives, opening it shows a message from over one year ago! I even forwarded a corrupted message to another account and it was the same old message. However, on MobileMe and my IPhone, the new message is correct.

i put a new sim card and a new number on this phone but for some reason it is paired with a Lady who can read all my texts how do i fix this?
You bought the phone from this lady right and she did not turn off imessage. Try turning off imessage and restart the phone. Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost). Wait a few minutes and turn imessage back on

Since purchasing my iPhone 5 one year ago, I'm unable to leave reviews for any app
I purchased my iPhone 5 one year ago. Since then I can't leave a review for any app. I contacted iTunes & they said it was the particular app. However, it's every single app. I can't leave a review for any at all. What's up? Is there something that's turned off in my settings?
I deleted the app multiple times, and restarted my phone, I even did a complete restore...nothing worked, UNTIL I changed my password once again...I had changed my password 3 times in an attempt to get it to work, and not until I changed it for the fourth time last night did the app finally accept my new credentials
It was such a goofy bug, but I'm glad to be rid of it...thanks all! -

i bought an factory unlocked iphone 3gs at the apple store today and just ordered a sim card activation kit and a 30 dollar minute card for it. the sim will work in the unlocked iphone am i correct? and i can use messaging on it right?
If T-Mobile in the US, while your phone will activate/work, you won't have FaceTime, MMS or 3G. T-Mobile, in the US, is not a supported iPhone carrier, thus all features of the iPhone may not be available. T-Mobile's 3G network, in the US, is not compatible with the iPhone.

A friend of mine downloaded an app from the internet onto my iPod Touch 4 so I could play pokemon on my iPod, I deleted the app but now iTunes and the App Store won't open, they say that the certificate for this server is invalid. What should I do?
Try:
Why does my iPod 4th generation say the certificate for this server is invalid when trying to access iTunes? I've never had an issue until this recently. -

Im wondering how I can get the music that I had on my iphone 4. I lost the phone over a year ago, but I spent hundreds of dollars on music albums. since then I have never been able to find out if I can get the albums that I purchased and save them in my computer. I don't have a iphone or other cell phone at the moment. the phone that I lost was not backed up. if anyone know how to do that, I would be thrilled.
If you got them from the iTunes Store, click here for information.
If you got them from somewhere else, reload them from that source.

I bought iPhone at Verizon-is it unlocked so I can put in an Italian SIM card in when I am traveling there. Can I use the iPhone as a hotspot?
No.
If a 4S, Verizon must unlock the GSM portion which then can be used with another carrier's SIM card outside of the US.
Being able to tether the iPhone is carrier dependent. -
can anyone help me????
Everything is Sorted!
The release of iTunes 11.0.2 and iOS 6.1.2 for my iPhone 4, seems to have sorted everything. I can now sync music, films and photos between my MacBook and my phone.
I was dubious about blindly doing the updates but decided they couldn't really mess up any further functionality so I went for it and it's sorted now.
Look in to, and take the gamble, it's up to you. -
