A problem with the sim card

I appeared an update of ios 6.0 (IOS) gave OK and then once completed almost said failed and was restored completely normal good but after turning on the phone and restore it and he said OK and then di to follow a step says that does not read the sim and not let me do anything

I solved a problem I had with activating my iPhone although the error message was different from yours.
I got the message "There is something wrong with your iPhone and it cannot be activated, please bring it to your nearest Apple service".
Via a Chinese forum I found out its the SIM card witch is the problem. If the serial number of the SIM has a "letter" in it it won't work. If only numbers it will work.
I now tried it with 2 SIM cards with letters and got the message over and over again. Than tried with my only numbers SIM card and it activated instantly.

  • "There is a problem with the SIM card in your iPhone"

    I'm getting this error when I try to activate my new iPhone 4 through iTunes:
    "*There is a problem with the SIM card in your iPhone.*
    To activate your iPhone with this account, you will need a new, unactivated SIM card. Please use the SIM card that was provided with your new iPhone. If you are using the new SIM card, and are unable to complete activation, you can go to an Apple Retail Store or an AT&T company owned retail store to request an unactivated SIM. If you would prefer to have a replacement SIM card sent to you via overnight mail, please call us at 1-800-MY-APPLE. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused."
    Now I've already been to AT&T and nothing they could do with the account settings would work, in fact they had never seen the issue before. They gave me a new SIM card and that did nothing as well. Finally they tried out a different SIM tray, and that still didn't work. I have a Genius Bar appointment at the Apple Store tomorrow, but I was wondering if anyone else has this problem. Do you think that the SIM reader inside the iPhone 4 is broken?

  • What does it mean when it says there is a problem with the sim card?

    What does it mean when it says there is a problem with the sim card?

    Exactly that, there is a problem with the sim card.
    The sim card is the little chip that links your iPad to the cellular providers network to get internet anywhere.
    It may have moved in the tray and lost contact, it may have an actual issue, or it may be deactivated by your cellular service provider.
    Contact them to have them look at it or your service and see if there is anything wrong with it.

  • I can't call anybody, but I can receive calls. There's no problem with the sim card, and no numbers are blocked. Help me.

    When I try to call, the call always failed.

    From a different phone, call your cellular carrier.   They need to get involved.

  • The SIM card In my iPhone 5 has been giving me occasional messages that there has been a SIM Failure, there is NO SIM, or that there is an INVALID SIM.  Until today, I was able to restart it with no problem and the SIM card would start up.

    The SIM card In my iPhone 5 has been giving me occasional messages that there has been a SIM Failure, there is NO SIM, or that there is an INVALID SIM.  Until today, I was able to restart it with no problem and the SIM card would start up.  This afternoon the NO SIM message came up and I cannot fix it. What is my next step?  I am traveling in Canada now and it is not convenient to come back to the States just to get a SIM card.
    Thanks,
    Lou

    Hi,
    Thanks for getting back to me.  How can I initiate Verizon sending me a new SIM card?  I will be here  long enough to receive it if they can send it to me.
    I have been trying to call Verizon Wireless, but they won’t take my call from my Skype account and I don’t have my phone.
    Thanks again,
    Lou

  • GUYS MY iPHONE 4 IS NOT WORKING WITH THE SIM CARD IN ZIMBABWE,HOW DO I UNLOCK IT?

    GUYS MY iPHONE 4 IS NOT WORKING WITH THE SIM CARD IN ZIMBABWE,HOW DO I UNLOCK IT?

    Only the wireless carrier that the iPhone is locked to is capable of unlocking it.  You'll have to ask them if they will unlock it.  Some will, some won't.
    Hope this helps

  • Problem with the sound card

    Hello everyone,
    So here for 2-3 days, the sound of my Macbook starts beuguer (buy in October 2014). So when starting the mac when I listen to music all goes well, I can adjust the sound using the keys on my keyboard, and when I ca defois support appears to me that the sound is cut off, I think it 'is a problem with the sound card. But as soon as I plug in headphones, not set I have to go through the system preferences. By unplugging the problem remains the same on his fate, but impossible to resolve through the keyboard. I tried to put the volume icon on the top bar but even by setting it does not work here. The problem resolves itself after 30 minutes-1 hour. It's very annoying. Thank you in advance for your answers.

    Hi, Dolve
    This could be either hardware or software, so let's start with trying to get all drivers and software up to date. This page has updates for all your system. I would recommend getting at least your latest audio driver and BIOS downloaded. Following the installation, try using your sound again and see if the issue still persists.
    Best,
    Adam

  • The problem with the network card.

    The problem with the network card.
    My laptop HP Pavilion dv7-1260ew network connection breaks .
    NIC is to blame .
    On that card could replace the old Intel 5100 to work with the network as a standard N.

  • Problems getting the sim card from my iPhone 5 to work in an unlocked iPhone 5c

    It looks like if you purchased your iPhone 5c or 5s from the Apple store directly, IMEI ID's are not in the Verizon wireless database. You will need to call customer service and have them open a support ticket to have your IMEI added to their database. If the support rep doesn't know what you are talking about (chances are they don't, I spent hours on the phone only to get on the phone with Apple for them to tell me what the problem was) talk to a supervisor and explain the problem. Verizon you really need to get it together with your customer service. You have got to be tanking on NPS and custsat...

    Day 3 an still not activated. Called VZW back and they still have not taken care of this issue. They told me to insert the sim card in repeatedly or take the phone back to apple. Then they called Apple while I was om the phone and then told me to get a new sim card. I went into the VZW store and was treated like crap where they told me that there is absolutely no one that can help me because the problem is apple sold me the wrong phone. Funny thing is both VZW and Apple on 2 separate con calls said that the phone should work and this is already the second phone apple reissued!!!
    VZW your service sucks. The people in your stores are rude and I am so very disappointing to be a VZW customer. The phones that are up for renewal will not be renewed with Verizon wireless.

  • I have a problem with my SIM card

    I bought my iPhone 4S last year directly from Apple.   I worked beautifully until I changed providers, from Orange to Jazztel.    My phone is blocked.   I cannot use it with their SIM card, even though I bought the phone and paid €599.00 to Apple.
    I have now been 13 days without a line, and Apple do not seem to be able to resolve this problem.
    Short of going to court, are there any senior management contract that may help me solve this problem?

    What did AppleCare say when you contacted them? Ask them to escalate the issue if you're not satisfied or call and ask to talk to someone in customer relations.
    You do not specify what country you are in or were, exactly, you bought the phone. In some locations, and from some retailers (CarPhoneWarehouse in the UK is a prime example) iPhones will lock to the first carrier used to activate them.
    Why don't you just contact orange and ask about having it unlocked instead of beating your head against a wall?

  • Why having problems with the sim, not supported carrier?

    My provider Orange UK has allowed me to unlock my iphone and has send to me all the steps. WHen trying to unlock my iphone, it gives me this message error
    " The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iphone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iphone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information"
    I bought a non Orange 3G sim card as they mentioned and there is this message. Anyone can help me to unlock my iphone?
    THanks!

    Have you followed all the steps for unlocking your iPhone, as listed here?

    If so, did you get the "your iPhone has now been unlocked" message after you restored the iPhone?

  • Nokia 5800 Restart Problem with the Memory Card

    hi,
    i am facing a peculiar problem with my 5800.i hv firmware v21.
    Whenever i restart the phone with the sd card inserted (it has around 35+apps/games loaded but 4.3GB of memory is free) ;the phone hangs up at the "nokia" screen & i hv to remove the battery.on ejecting the card & then restarting; the phone starts up fine.on inserting the card later after the restart; it is read without any problems by the phone & all the apps. work fine.i do not hv any apps loaded for start up.
    i saw similar problems posted in some other topics for 5800;but could not get a clear idea whether this problem was occuring in other phones as well.Is it firmware related or due to large no. of apps on the phone?
    please help.

    it is most likely the corrupt memory card issue, it happens quiet often. that is why back up is so essential to have especially of memories and such. for that i use share online and upload my pics right away to ovi or vox whichever. 
    the programs  you bought you should be just able to download once again and plug in the key you have gotten with your applicatioins. you should be able to recover all of your purchases. i am sorry for your pics for those can't be recovered  
    i always keep a separate email folder for all my application keys so i can find they easily as phones and memory does get corrupt. i can do it relatively quickly and have the info handy even on the go
