ATT not available where I live. Can I use the iPhone as an iPod and camera?

ATT is not available where I live. And I just lost my iPod Touch and need to replace it -- but I want the camera with it. Can I just get a iPhone on EBay and use it on-line with wifi only?

The features of the iphone do not work until it has been activated with the carrier.
If the iphone was previously active, then it would work, but you would have to have an active SIM or the previously activated SIM in the iphone in order to update the software or to restore the iphone ( which is very possible to be needed during the life of the iphone).

    No, nothing will prevent the computer from going to sleep when you close its display except third-party hacks that are designed to do exactly that. I strongly advise against using any of those, as they may interfere with successful entry into clamshell mode (and they carry other downside risks as well). Just wait until the computer is asleep (with its sleep light pulsing), then press any key on the keyboard. It sounds as though your setup is working as it's designed to do.

    You can get apps for a Mac (and the iPs device) that allows you to use the iOS device as a webcam.

  • Can I use the iPhone 6 t-mobile version with straight talk?

    Can I use the iPhone 6 t-mobile version with straight talk?

    All,
    I have read and understand most of the post (s) on this: Apple Support Community:
    It looks like the long way around my elbow approach: (piecing together an iPhone 6+ with a Straight Talk AT&T /T Mobile; Compatible Nano SIM Card) may yet work, just a bit gun shy on the $949.00 cost for the iPhone 6+ from Apple.
    I live in Hawaii on the island of Oahu (north shore), and have  an iPhone 4 8gb cdma iPhone which is on Verizon's network rebranded by TFW / Straight Talk for several years. It works fine but I need an iPhone with more storage.
    I have had a talk / chat with both sides Apple & Straight Talk, neither have real answers to support using the iPhone 6+ with Straight Talk as a carrier.
    On the Apple site: " http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ ". It is clear that Straight Talk has certified their LTE network with iPhone 6/6+ to meet basic standards.
    I / we need all of the successful trail braisers on this community to post what works & what does not work.
    What I plan / have to purchase / buy:
    Direct from Apple:
    1. Contract-free iPhone 6 Plus 128GB Space Gray (GSM) T-Mobile. (pending research to ensure it will work). Apple confirms, without the T Mobile nano sim that this iPhone is unlocked.
    Direct from Straight Talk:
    2. AT&T /T Mobile; Compatible Nano SIM Card. (GSM; on its way)
    Would have purchased a Verizon Nano SIM Card from Straight Talk but they do not seem to have one.
    All support, advice & information is greatly appreciated.
    V/R

  • Can i use the iphone 4s that is on an at&t contact in another country?

    can i use the iphone 4s that is on an at&t contact in another country?

    Short answer: yes, with limitations
    Long Answer: AT&T has roaming agreements with other providers in foreign countries, so it will automatically work there, but you will be paying AT&T's roaming charges which are very expensive even if you have the $25 international roaming add-on. Of course that is just for voice, not including how much data might cost.
    If you want to use the local country providers at their local pricing, then you want an unlocked phone (like the ones available in November from Apple).
    Outside of that, there are other options, but you should research those somewhere else.

  • I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad.  Can I use the iPad as a monitor and keyboard for the Mac mini, either through the USB connection or thru Wi-Fi?

    I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad.  Can I use the iPad as a keyboard and screen for the Mac mini, using either the USB connector or Wi-Fi?

    I'm sorry, I should have said thru Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi.  I want to use the mini as a base station and the iPad like a laptop that I can sync when I'm home and carry with me when I travel.  Is is possible to hook these 2 up - iPad/mini, through Bluetooth?  I understand I need to use a regular monitor/keyboard/mouse on the initial install.

  • Can i use the Iphone without Activating it just as an ipod

    Can i just use the iphone as an ipod. Put songs on it without having to activate it or canceling the plan and it still work like an ipod.

    It is what it is and before purchasing an iPhone, it is also YOUR choice to read/know the minimum computer system requirements, etc. and it is Apple's choice regarding what they include with the system requirements and other requirements for the iPhone.
    It isn't your right and choice to do whatever you want with the iPhone after your purchase since you agree to Apple's license agreement when using an iPhone.
    If you don't like the iPhone's minimum system requirements and other requirements and don't agree with the iPhone's license agreement, you can choose not to purchase an iPhone.
    Apple's goal as a corporation is no different from any other corporation whose stock is publicly traded - maximize profits and the stock's value for their stock holders. End of story. I hope Steve purchases a new yacht for every coast in the U.S. or wherever else. It is called risk taking and those who take the risks to begin with - the founders of the company and the risks taken along the way should be rewarded very handsomely for doing so and rightfully so. The ones who aren't smart enough and willing to take the same type of risks sit back and make judgements and statements about the ones that do.

  • Can I use the iPhone when is he charging?

    Can I use the iPhone when is he charging?

    Andy, I'd like to know where you got that information, [citation/source needed]
    Whenver you see the plug symbol on the iPhone, it means its running on external power.
    Some datacenters use this method/always-on UPS, (AC power charges the battery bank, datacenter is connected to the other end of the battery) If there is any interruption in mainline power, the system stays up while the generator warms up.
    Do they have any battery degradation issues? Nope.
    Apple designed the iPhone to handle multiple methods of charging and discharging events.
    Remember, when new on the forums, whenever/wherever you post, people are trusting the information you provide, if its inaccurate, out-of-date, etc, you might want to do some research and learning about new technology.
