  • Would an unlocked iphone bought in the usa work in the uk with a uk sim card

    I am looking to buy an unlocked iphone 4s on my next trip to the usa and was wondering if it would work back in the uk with a uk sim card?

    If it is truly unlocked, yes. Note, though, that you would get no warranty or other support for a US-sold iPhone in the UK. Should it ever need service, you'd have to send the iPhone to someone you know in the US to get it serviced. So think hard before you decide to purchase a US iPhone.
    Regards.

  • Does a MacBook Air bought in the USA work in Europe ?

    Does a MacBook Air bought in the USA work in Europe ?

    Yes, no problem whatsoever. just get a local figure of 8 style cable to plug into the power adaptor. Don't bother with the expensive 'World adaptors' some folk sell as most electrical stores and even supermarkets will have one for a less than a Dollar.

  • I bought an iPhone 5S in the USA, however he warmed up and took off the screen, I live in Brazil and they do not give assistance to my device, but I can not go back to the U.S. just to change the iphone, what should I do to solve my problem ?

    I live in China as well and my iPhone5s is the model A1530 I bougth outside China. I have the same problem as Nikatnight with the iPhone while the iPad Air (wifi only) is working like a charm. It must be definitely something related to the carrier since I was abroad few days ago and everything worked well.
    If you pay attention at the source of your maps, you'll discover they are provided by AutoNavi instead of TomTom and make them appear in chinese with their own border interpretation. Queries are only acceppted in Chinese (p.e. if I type in english "Los Angeles International Airport"  it replies it cannot locate it)
    I suppose everything will be fine when you'll be out of censorship....
    Perhaps iOS  Apple Maps are absolutely useless for expatriate in China.
    Use Google Maps instead
    BTW, I'm surprised how much Apple might prostrate towards hard power Governments.... No matter what, money are always on top!

  • Can I use an iPhone 6 model A1549, bought in the USA and unlocked (T-mobile SIM)  on O2 in the UK?

    Can I use an iPhone 6 model A1549, bought in the USA and unlocked (T-mobile SIM)  on O2 in the UK?

    Brought my IPhone 6 A1549 model (unlocked Tmobile) whilst in the USA in September. I've been using it in the UK since October with absolutely no problems at all.
    Im on the EE network and 4G works fine.
    As for the warranty I made enquires at Apple and was told its worldwide any problems take it into any Apple store and it be repaired or Replaced.

    Settings > iTunes & App Stores
    Tap on your Apple ID at the top
    Tap "View Apple ID"
    Enter password if needed
    Tap "Country/Region"
    Tap "Change Country or Region"
    You may need to change to a UK credit card.

  • I bought iphone locked to the USA network one year ago. I have moved to Kazakhstan recently. Can Apple unlock my Apple Iphone in order to us it in Kazakhstan?

    Apple doesn't unlock phones. You will need to contact the original cellular provider to determine if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.

  • If i buy an unlocked iphone 4s in the usa will it work in Australia? and will the warranty be valid in astralia as i have been told that apple have a world wide after sales service but also been told warranties are only valid in the country of purchase

    If i buy an unlocked iphone 4s in the usa will it work in Australia? and will the warranty be valid in astralia as i have been told that apple have a world wide after sales service but also been told warranties are only valid in the country of purchase? Cheers

    Each country is a separate business. If Apple in Australia fixes a phone purchased in another country it reduces their profit. The good news is that Apple stores will frequently replace phones purchased in other countries under warranty, but they are not required to do so. Some countries are more liberal than others. India never does, for example.
    Why don't you just buy it in Australia? The price difference can't be that great.

  • Is Apple Not Going to Release an Unlocked Version of the iPhone 5 in the USA?

    I am wondering if Apple is simply not going to release an unlocked version of the iPhone 5 in the USA as we are already in November and no news have been released.
    If I purchase a no commitment iPhone 5 with Verizon, will it be unlocked for all the carriers in the USA and abroad? Thanks.

    Apple has made no announcement one way or the other.
    Kappy, I don't know where you get the idea that AT&T stores are selling unlocked phones. I've heard no such thing.
    I have heard that if one purchases a no commitment AT&T iPhone 5 and plugs it in and restores it in iTunes before activating it, that it will be unlocked. I don't know that this is actually official policy on AT&T's part, but it has been documented to happen. Whether it continues or not...
    I also know that Verizon is legally prohbited from selling the iPhone 5 completely locked down due to conditions imposed on them when the won a recent auction for radio spectrum.
    Not to speculate on what they will do, but I for one, don't see much point in selling an unlocked version of the iPhone 5 in the U.S. There is only one GSM carrier in the U.S., AT&T. The US GSM iPhone 5 will not work on any LTE networks outside of the US, so logically, why bother?
    A huge percentage of Americans never leave the country over the course of their lives... It's not like other parts of the world where one can cover multiple countries in a days drive...
    Heck,many Americans never even leave the State they were born in.

    If not an AT&T locked iPhone, you cannot get it officially unlocked.

  • I have brought an iphone 4 from the usa.

    hi there i brought iphone 4 from the usa of a friend but how do i get my 02 sim card to work? thanks

    As Wjosten says it is locked to AT&T and they will not unlock it.  Even though o2 unlock iphones they can only do this with phones originating from them.  So, yes the phone is not able to be officially unlocked.

  • If i buy iphone 5 from the usa can i take it back and use it with my UK O2 sim card and how much will a 16gb iphone 5 cost

    Hi,
    if i buy iphone 5 from the usa can i take it back and use it with my UK O2 sim card and also how much will a 16gb iphone 5 cost in the usa?
    thanks
    Andy

    hi there,
    you could buy it somewhere in Europe. I know Apple sells them unlocked here in Germany and if I am not mistaken also (among others) in France and Italy.
    Yet, as Peter wrote, the warranty can become a problem. Not sure whether a one country only rule goes for the European Community as well though.
    As for the price, the 16 GB model costs 679,- € (equals roughly 550 £). Currently there is an average delivery time of 4 to 5 weeks.
    LTE connections will not work with Orange or Vodafone. Only EE is about to offer a compatible LTE network. DC-HSPA and regular HSPA+ will work fine.
    regards, Chris

  • Can I use Google Sync to transfer only my contacts from my IPhone 4 to my gmail acct? I don't want to sync info from Gmail to the IPhone. Can the sync work only one-way? I have 0 contacts on my gmail as I'll only use it as a back-up 4 my IPhone contacts.

    Can I use Google Sync to transfer only my contacts from my IPhone 4 to my gmail account? I do not want to sync info from Gmail to the IPhone. Can the sync work only one-way? I have 0 contacts & 0 calendar events on my gmail account. I opened the Gmail account specifically to for the Google Sync and wil only be using this account as a back-up for my IPhone contacts. Please Help!!

    You do realize that the SIM only contains account information for your wireless account.
    Moving the SIM from phone to phone does not cause any of your iTunes content, contacts, email, etc to magically appear on the device.

  • If I purchase an unlocked iPhone 5 from the USA, would I be able to use the phone in Australia?

    If I purchase an unlocked iPhone 5 from the USA, would I be able to use the phone in Australia?

    Yes - unlocked means unlocked, but if there is a problem that requires an exchange under warranty, the warranty would be honored in the US only. You would need to return to the US for an exchange under warranty.
