I have an Ipod1 with 3G and an unlimited ATT plan.  I want to get an Ipad2 - can I swap SIM cards so that my unlimited service will automatically transfer to the new unit?

You don't actually swap the SIM card. For some reason, AT&T doesn't like you to do it that way.
Go to:
www.att.com/ipadlanding
edit payment information link...then update the following two fields:
IMEI:
ICCID:
You get this info from the iPad (1 or 2) select 'Settings' then 'General' then 'About'...
The IMEI and ICCID info is on that screen. No need to swap the SIM cards. This process outlined above transfers service instantly and does NOT change the plan type, billing, user info, or days remaining. Basically anytime an ATT customer wants to move a data plan the ATT iPad web page is all you need. No phone call!
It took me about 3 minutes and worked perfectly.

  • Can I buy an iPad2 in US and have it unlocked so I can add a SIM card in South Africa where I will be living.

    Can I buy an iPad2 in US and have it unlocked so I can add a SIM card in South Africa where I will be living?
    I have read that the AT&T model is "unlocked". Is this true? Do I have to ask them to unlock it?

    According to http://www.ipadincanada.ca/ipad-news/apple-confirms-ipad-2-3g-att-model-from-us- unlocked/ all GSM versions of iPad 2's are unlocked.  In the U.S.A. AT&T version is the GSM version, and you should be able to use it with GSM carriers in other countries if you buy their SIM.

  • I already have an iPod with over 2,000 songs.  Just got the iPhone.  If I sync my new iPhone to my computer, will all  my music automatically transfer to the new phone, or will I lose everything?

    I already have an iPod with over 2,000 songs.  Just got the iPhone.  If I sync my new iPhone to my computer, will I lose my songs or will they automatically sync to my phone.

    When you connect the phone to your computer, you can select the music you want to sync, all music, just selected playlists, just selected artists or genres.  See this: Overview of syncing iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with your computer:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386

  • I have 2 email accts.  I set it up so that email from one account automatically transfer to the other account.  How do I undo it?

    I have two email accounts.  I was having problems with one account and set it up to automatically transfer emails from the problem account to the other.  The account with the problem has been fixed.  How do I undo the automatic transfer?

    I don't suppose it will be exactly the same on my ISP's webmail interface as Comcast's, but I've just checked the route I have to follow with my provider (Orange in France):
    Log on to your email account in a web browser > Select Mail's Preferences > Select Forward my email to another mailbox.
    If you don't have this, or a similar option, I'm afraid I'm stuck for other ideas .

  • My iPhone 4 recently broke and I did not back it up to iCloud.  Is it possible to back it up now even though the phone is broken?  I also plan on getting iPhone 5, would my information automatically transfer to the new phone?

    I had a few questions regarding iCloud.  My iPhone 4 recently broke and i didn't realize that I had to manually activate iCloud in order to back up my files, so therefore the information on the iPhone 4 was not backed up.  Is it possible to enable iCloud now and back up the information even though the phone is broken?
    Also, I was thinking about replacing the broken iPhone 4 with the 5, would my information automtically be transferred to the 5 as long as I log-in with my apple ID?
    I would appreciate all the help I can get!!!
    Thanks,
    Jae

    How can I access iCloud through the internet and not through the phone if thats possible?  Now that I think about it, I'm not 100% sure that I didn't back it up.
    Thanks

  • I have the iPhone 5s. I synced it with my Mac and got all the old apps from my old phone. I was not able to update any of the apps on the old phone and they will not update on the new iPhone 5s either! What can I do?

    Hey there rmflint,
    It sounds like you are wanting to update the Apps that were synced over from your computer to your new iPhone 5s. If you are clicking Updates in the App Store in the bottom right corner, would you mind clarifying what happens when you are trying to update them?

  • Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone can help me.  I recently got my first ever Ipod.  It's the new Ipod Nano 7th Generation.  I have tried to synchronise it with Itunes but it says "Connected, Eject before Disconnecting" but nothing happens.

    Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone can help me.  I recently got my first ever Ipod.  It's the new Ipod Nano 7th Generation.  I have tried to synchronise it with Itunes but it says "Connected, Eject before Disconnecting" but nothing happens.  I have tried uninstalling & re-installing Itunes but this didnt help. 
    Does anyone have any ideas? 
    Thanks for your help.

    I think the problem is that the iPod got set to Manually manage music and videos.  It needs to be set up for automatic syncing again.  Just unchecking that Manually manage music and videos setting does not do it.
    In iTunes 12, select the iPod in iTunes (using the device button), so that you see the iPod's "management" screen.  In the sidebar (along left side of screen), there are two headings (Settings and On My Device).  Under Settings, click on Music.  To the right, you see the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box at the top for Sync Music.  That turns ON automatic syncing for music.  Below that, choose the option to sync Entire music library (assuming your music library fits completely on your iPod).  Otherwise, you can choose the option to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres and make your selections below.  Then click Apply.

  • I shifted from a windows to a mac.. I want to add songs to my ipod tpuch 4th gen.. but if i try to sync with itunes it says my songs will be replaced by the new songs.. Is there any way that i can have my previous data safe??

    Your iPod can only be synced with one computer at a time.  If you try to sync it with a new computer/iTunes library, it will replace the contents of the iPod with whatever is in the new library. You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabling the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
    Before doing anything else,  authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account.  In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials. Either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync.
    Then right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.
    iOS: How to back up
    Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc.  For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases.  For all other nonpurchased iTunes content, see this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
    Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier.  Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software
    If you do happen to lose any purchased content, you can always redownload it from the iTunes Store again at no cost via iCloud.  See this article for information.

  • I have iPad set with iCloud and I want to set to iTunes

    Option Set as new iPad in iTunes affect my data on iPad?

    If you mean that you have content on the iPad and you have never synced with iTunes and you now want to start syncing with iTunes - if you set it up as new - you will erase the content that is currently on the iPad.
    You can use iCloud and iTunes both - but you need to make the iTunes library on your computer your syncing library first before you can use iTunes.

    here
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finish backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

  • The last week, Firefox will not load up the NEW YORK TIMES. So, I have had to use Safari to do so. If this continues, I'm going to quit using your browser, and begin using Safari all the time!

    The last week, Firefox will not load up the NEW YORK TIMES. So, I have had to use Safari to do so. If this continues, I'm going to quit using your browser, and begin using Safari all the time!

    There are several other similar posts in this forum with the answers. Your post appears third in my Google search today looking for a solution so I thought I'd add the solution here as well.
    It is obviously a bug in either (or both) Firefox and the NYT.
    The quickest solution is to simply go to the VIEW Menu in Firefox, then the ZOOM option and choose RESET.
    I use Mac and this happens in Firefox 3.6.10. It does not happen in other browsers like Safari, Chrome and Camino, and it did not occur before last week.
    It has also occurred in the iOS version of Safari on iPad. Not sure how to fix it there.

  • Can I use the old power supply with the new unit?

    I have a second generation Apple TV. When I install the new unit next week can I use the old power supply with the new one and the new power supply with the old one? This would save some messing with cords behind the units.

    Hello:
    I would definitely not try that.....  The power supplies may be compatible - or may not be compatible.  I think messing with cables is a small price to pay for not potentially frying a new device.
