Bought device iphone 6 device from verizon owner and it locked to Verizon

Hello
I bought Verizon iPhone 6 from some guy and it locked to Verizon, Im trying to use it on att and got it
The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
Any idea?
With Verizon SIM it work fine.

Verizon phones are all unlocked. 
insert the the new SIM card and restore to factory with iTunes.
if the phone is not blacklisted, it will say itis unlocked.
( find my iPhone has to be turned off so you can activate with iTunes and your account.)

    Hello adilx
    The only way to get passed that and to use that iPhone is to ask the previous owner to remove it from icloud.com in the Find my iPhone section.

    If the previous owner is not present
    Make sure the device is powered on and connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Then contact the previous owner and ask them to follow these steps to remove the device from their account:
    Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
    Click All Devices to open a list of devices linked to their account, then select the device to be removed.
    Click the Erase button to erase all content and settings from the device. When prompted, don't enter a phone number or message. Click Next until the device is erased.
    When the erase is complete, click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
    After the device is erased and removed from the account, you can proceed with the device setup process.

  • I bought an iphone 5 unlocked from verizon. Can i use it in Greece with vodafone carrier?

    I bought an iphone 5 unlocked from verizon. Can i use it in Greece with vodafone carrier? or is ti better to buy on from AT&T?

    Verizon is cdma - no sims card       Att is simms card based   I would contact Vodaphone and get their opinion of the situation (i believe there technology is sims based)   http://www.vodafone.co.uk/personal/index.htm  to help you make the correct decision.
    I would also explore the unlocked option with them (greece vodaphone) and a states based carrier (att) so you can use the phone in the states and eu if you travel

    You address it with whomever provides service in your country... whether that is Apple or the carrier.

    Seriously?  Why in the world would Apple ship a carrier locked AT&T iPhone to Singapore to replace your device?  Apple, or the carrier that provides warranty service provides replacements appropriate for your country.  They do not ship warranty replacements around the world.
    Also, I think your friend is full of manure.  iPhone model numbers do not vary around the world, at least I've never seen or heard of that sillyness.

    No such listing exists.
    Bottom line... ignore your friend (they obviously have no clue what they are talking about) and contact your carrier or Apple in Singapore and address the warranty replacement with them.

  • If I bought my iPhone in America from an Apple Store and have the receipt can I return it to a Japanese Apple store?

    If I bought my iPhone in America from an Apple Store and have the receipt can I return it to a Japanese Apple store? Yes it is within 30 days, I bought it July 21st, meaning it is within 15 days, as well.

    I would doubt it, but there's nobody here who can speak on behalf of Apple.  Phone the Japanese store: they will know far better than us fellow users.

  • HT201269 i bought my iphone 4 about a year ago and just decided to upgrade it to ios5 just recently. My phone restored to to its factory settings and when I clicked continue restore from back up it is now asking a backup password which i dont remember set

    i bought my iphone 4 about a year ago and just decided to upgrade it to ios5 just recently. My phone restored to to its factory settings and when I clicked continue restore from back up it is now asking a backup password which i dont remember setting up one. I am currently using a windows vista PC. How can I retrieve the password or restore all my old data into the new OS. I have been reading blogs about the same situation and is it true that it is one of apple's bugs?

    It is NOT a bug.  You provided a password.  If you can't remember it, you can't restore your phone from backup.  Very simple.

  • A contract-free iPhone 6 Plus from Verizon could be used in Mexico?

    Hi, I live in Mexico an I will go to WA an NY next month, I would like to buy the Contract-Free iPhone 6 Plus from Verizon, I have heard that if I buy the iPhone of Verizon it will be unlocked and it could be used in Mexico.
    Is this true? What should I ask them to be sure it will work?
      Thanks!!

    No. Verizon does not sell a contract-free iPhone nor one that is unlocked. T-Mobile sells the iPhone contract-free, but it will be locked to T-Mobile's service for 40 days after purchase. Then they can be asked to unlock it.

  • HT1338 I bought my mac book pro from an owner selling. I created my apple ID but whenever I try to download updates it brings up previous owner's apple ID and asks for password. How do I delete existing apple ID and use mine.

    I bought my mac book pro from an owner selling. I created my apple ID but whenever I try to download updates it brings up previous owner's apple ID and asks for password. How do I delete or by-pass existing apple ID and use my created apple ID and password to enable updates for my Mac?

    Yes, he purchased Mountain Lion on his Apple ID. It is licensed to him. What he should have done was erase the HDD and install the system that the Mac shipped with. Erase and re-install either from Recovery Partition or the disks the Mac originally shipped with. Then, purchase ML with your own Apple ID and install.

  • I bought an Iphone 4S 16Gb from softbank - Japan. I would like to buy an active code for my Iphone, how can I do and where can I buy?

    I bought an Iphone 4S 16Gb from softbank - Japan. I would like to buy an active code for my Iphone, how can I do and where can I buy?

    That iPhone is useable only on the softbank network. Softbank does not
    unlock iPhones for use on other networks. Sell that iPhone to someone who
    can use it on Softbank and use the money to buy an iPhone that will work
    with your wireless provider.

    Contact Movistar your carrier and see if they will unlock the phone for you.
    Only Movistar is authorized to unlock your phone.

    I bought an iPhone 5 around fifteen days back and it has already started to give problem with the on/off button. I have to press it five six times to switch it on or off. I am so frustrated by the fact that if I bring it to the service centre, I am going to get a refurbished phone in place of my brand new phone which I just bought. The idea of a used phone repulses me. Any solutions ?

    Why?  Your current phone is used... it has been since the instant it was removed from the shrink wrap and turned on.

    Live with the phone as is.
    Take the device to Apple for evaluation... it may not need replacement.
    Even if it does, neither you or the Apple tech should be able to tell if the replacement is new or refurbished.

  • HI, I just bought an iPhone 4S. Although my iPad and other iPhone 3GS connect to our server (SBS2003) I cannot get through.  It checks all items in the connection and then I get the message :Cannot get mail, the connection to the server failed."

Although my iPad and other iPhone 3GS connect to our server (SBS2003) I cannot get through.  It checks all items in the connection and then I get the message :Cannot get mail, the connection to the server failed."  I Tried everything, rebooting, reset all iPhone, etc.  All Apple devices work perfectly expect mine.  Please advise

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Additional things to try.
    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
    If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.
