My husband is getting all of my childrens messages on his phone. How can I change that or does he need his own apple ID? If so do we need to rest his phone to register it under him?
Yes he would need his own apple id for imessage/facetime and icloud.
In the meantime on his device go to settings - message - send&receive - remove the shared apple id. -
I bought this iPhone from a guy and later on he passed away in Syria , after that , I tried to update the soft ware to ISO 7 but the system asked me for the old owner's information which I do not know so could you please advice me on that , what can I do to reactivate the device ?
You cannot reactivate the device without knowing the previous owner's information. This is the new antitheft measure built into the iPhone.
There's nothing you can do. You'll need to purchase a new phone. -
If I bought an iphone from a country that blocks Facetime, can it be activated in other countries?
Hello everyone
I purchased an iphone 4 from Dubai around a year ago. FaceTime -as some of you know - is blocked there .
Since I live in Muscat- Oman, FaceTime is not blocked .
The thing is that FaceTime won't work ! Is there any settings related to the IP address and the DNS that can be changed to activate FaceTime here in Oman?
A general form of the question is : if I bought an iphone from a country that blocks FaceTime , how can it be activated in others that allows it ?Are you absloutly sure?
I need to make sure whether to complelty lose hope or not
The irony is that Skype is blocked in Oman ..
Oh well , one more reason to buy iphone 5 ... -

I bougth an iphone from a friend but it is block to At&t how can i unlock it?
Call AT&T and see if you qualify for an unlock. If you do not, maybe you can get your friend to contact them and request an unlock, if he was a customer. Only the carrier the device is locked to can authorize an unlock.

Go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support.

i bought a IPhone 4 from china.and it's install in chinese language so how can I change this language???
I guess that except for the settings icon he is probably seeing everything in chinese.
If that is the case, press home button to be sure you are on the home screen, look for this icon
and tap onto it. You should hopefully see this same icon in the list again.
tap onto that. then swipe up so that you are at the bottom of that screen, it should be this screen but in chinese
The last 'bubble' is the Reset, right above it should be Accessibility in chinese and then 'International' in chinese.
Tap onto the 'international'
The next screen, again in chinese will have 'Language' as the top most button.
tap that and if you see a list of languages, you are home free.... -
Bought second hand iPhone 4 they cannot remember the iCloud password how do I get around this
Bought a second hand iphone4 have contacted seller they cannot remember iCloud password how do I get around this?
They need to reset their Apple ID password by going to http://iforgot.apple.com and then turn off Find My iPhone.
At that point you can restore the device as new.
If they cannot or will not do that, demand a refund.
If they will not provide a refund, contact law enforcement as the device is most likely stolen. -

All of my music does not show it was downloaded to ICloud. How do I download not only purchased but cd music to the ICloud?
You've subscribed to iTunes Match on your computer's iTunes and uploaded your music to it from your computer, as on the HT4914 page that you posted from ? And you've turned on Match on your phone ? Without Match your own music won't go into the cloud and be avilable for streaming/downloading.

It boggles the mind. The Verizon store on L Street downtown Washington, D.C. cannot access my Verizon account. They can only sell cellphones then it's up to me to contact Verizon on my own to get the hook up. I even asked "Are you Verizon employes? Is this a vendor store or is it really a Verizon owned and operated store?" The answer "Yes, we are Verizon employes, yes this is a Verizon owned and operated store" ...
Yes, it indeed boggles the mind. I'm of course referring to the fact that your post concerns Verizon Wireless products and services. This forum is dedicated exclusively to Verizon Communications services. As you probably know, Verizon Wireless and Verizon Communications operate as separate companies.
If you need help for a Verizon wireless product or service, it's best to direct questions to the Verizon Wireless forums. You can reach them by clicking on "Wireless" (either here or at the top of the page).
Good luck and I sincerely hope you get your issue resolved. -
icloud problem
No, there is no way around this. You've bought a useless, and probably stolen, phone. You shouldn't buy iPhones off of Craigslist (which you now, sadly, know).
