My ipad all of a sudden says "no SIM" and I have no connection unless on wfi?

Hello Melliesan14,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPad.  I recommend following the steps in the article below if you are getting the message "No SIM" when your SIM card is installed (this article refers to an iPhone, but the steps are relevant for an iPad that uses a SIM as well):

  • Just got message on iPad saying no Sim

    Just noticed my iPad says NO SIM, my Wi Fi connection is still working. What should I do.

    I took it into the apple store today and they did all that so I don't know what else I can do. They just said that I have to spend £250 to get it fixed!! Outrageous I think as it is in perfect order!! Thanks anyway!

    I suspect unless he had some items in iCloud backup then they are gone.  Connecting an iPhone to a different library from that to which it was previously connected will result in the device asking if you want to erase it.

  • IPad says" no sim" what does that mean? How can I fix this?

    My iPad says" no sim" how do I fix this?

    Or if that does not help go into settings and check if you have it turned on and not just set  to Wi Fi only , but I don't think it would be saying no sim in that case.

  • TS1398 My ipad says NO SIM in the top left corner

    My ipad says NO SIM in the top left corner instead of ATT like it used to. 

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

    Why does my iPad say " No SIM " in the upper left corner ?

    Hi Edwardtracey,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It sounds like you have a cellular data plan and there is no service where you currently are.
    The article below will explain this feature and how to turn the setting on/off.
    The article has more details and screenshots, but I've quoted highlights below for you:
    iOS: About the Cellular Data setting
    Cellular data is used for data communication in cellular networks. It does not affect your ability to make or receive phone calls or to use Wi-Fi networks for Internet connectivity. If you turn off cellular data, you will be unable to:
    See the cellular data icons in the status bar (for example, LTE or 3G).
    Send or receive MMS messages. However, you can still send and receive SMS and iMessages if you're connected to a Wi-Fi network.
    Retrieve or listen to new Visual Voicemail messages. To retrieve these messages, enable Cellular Data.
    Use Personal Hotspot.
    You can adjust this setting by going to:
    iPad: Settings > Cellular
    Additional Information
    You can also enable or disable cellular data for certain iOS features from this setting:
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • TS3274 Ipad says "no Sim". have to restart and it works fine for awhile

    Ipad says no sim. when I turn off and restart it works fine for a while then does same thing. cleaned sim and reinstalled.

    Rather than just turning it off and on, try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons simultaneously, ignoring the red power off slider, until the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. This should not affect any content on the iPad, it is similar to rebooting your computer.
    If that doesn't help, then the next step is to retore it to the factory settings. Then you can restore it to a previous backup (which may see the issue return) or set it up as a new iPad again.

  • Just updated IPad 2 to IOS8 and now have no 3G service  have WIFI but not 3G  Says No Service at top

    Just updated IPad 2 to IOS8 and now have no 3G service  have WIFI but not 3G  Says No Service at top

    I am really sorry I upgraded so quickly to ios8.
    Not only do I not have my ATT but my pics "events from mac" are in some unknow order.  I have 220 folders that are not alpabetized.  I cannot find any pictures.
    On the Macbook Air the events are perfect, all in alphabetic order.  When they transferred they are mixed.  Faces are mixed now.
    THis new operating system is horrible.  How do I go back to 7.
    And the ipad 2 is so slow now.  There are no positives!

  • I updated my iphone and when it came time for activation it won't work and keeps telling me to try again. At the top it says "No Service" and I have my SIM card in and a good WiFi connection and have connected it through iTunes but it says I have no SIM

    I updated my iphone and when it came time for activation it won't work and keeps telling me to try again. At the top it says "No Service" and I have my SIM card in and a good WiFi connection and have connected it through iTunes but it says I have no SIM card and need to disconnect and insert my SIM. I don't understand why this keeps happening and it's been going on for a wile now. I have tried over and over again to get this iPhone to work but nothig is happening. I've even gone on the website for support (apple.com/support) but cannot find anything that will help me with this situation. Can someone please help me find a solution to this problem? I have been without a phone and do not have money to buy another one and it is crucial for me to get it fixed. Thanks.

    What computer operating system is involved in the Premiere Elements 11 and 13 issues? Same computer or different ones? Are you installing from purchased download installation files or from purchased installation disc? Does Premiere Elements 11 work completely on this computer whereas 13 will not?
    Let us go through the typical drill so as to take nothing for granted.
    1. Does the problem exist with or without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled? Are you working with an individual home computer or in a
    school or company network?
    2. Are you running the program as Administrator and is there any "domain" account involved?
    3. Is your video card/graphics card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    4. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on the computer with Premiere Elements?
    Let us start by ruling in or out any of the above, and then we can decide what next.
    Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.

    Try again.   Maybe a typo?

  • I have just moved to Spain and out in a Spanish sim into my Irish bought iPhone 4. It says 'invalid sim' and 'no service'. The phone is not locked to any provider. I have been told that its a handset issue. Please advise.

    I have just moved to Spain and out in a Spanish sim into my Irish bought iPhone 4. It says 'invalid sim' and 'no service'. The phone is not locked to any provider. I have been told that its a handset issue. Please advise.

    1). Are you positive the phone is not locked? Where did you buy it? Did you get it unlocked from your original carrier? Only Apple sells unlocked phones in most countries.
    2). Did you try with a diffrent SIM. MAybe the one you have is defective.
    3). Does the Spnaish carrier you are using support the iPhone? Who told you it is a handset issue?

  • IPhone 4G. Says "no sim" and cannot make a call. Tried restarting without results.

    iPhone 4G. Says "no sim" and cannot make a call. Tried restarting without results.

    Could be a number of things causing this. You could try going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. If that doesn't work, try another SIM. Failing that, Try restoring the iPhone through iTunes
    If none of that resolves the issue, the iPhone may need servicing
