  • I have an iPhone 5 from verizon, can I buy a sim card in europe and replace the one from verizon?

    My iPhone5 is model A1429.
    I purchased it through Verizon within the last 9 months.
    Can I just buy a new sim card and replace the Verizon one while I am in Europe for 25 days?

    After 10 days in Scandinavia, this is what I have learned:
    1.) getting the mini or nano sim has been impossible _ in Sweden, Norway and Denmark the carriers I worked with have the old sim cards that they suggest that you trim down to nano size.  The one I tried was still too thick to fit in the sim card drawer on my iphone 5.
    2.) Verizon was very cooperative and unlocked my phone before I left the USA.
    3.) The Verizon plan may be competitive with plans that cover multiple countries in Europe.  The pricing is sufficiently confusing that providers are hard to compare, ie. initial plan / sim card purchase amout, voice, data, text send / receive rates, varying monthly or package  amounts of mintes and data allowances.
    4.) Keeping cellular data off, using wi-fi has mostly kept cellular data usage low, with a few exceptions resulting from data use for either google or i maps and a probable butt-call or mistaken program left on without wi-fi.
    5.) I am still going to check out France's rate, but I won't report more if the story stays the same.
    Good luck out there.
    Thank you to all that responded.  Even though the information did not help resolve the problem it gave us traction.

    Can I buy a Sim card and use my phone? Is it easy to change the card?
    Any ideia how much will cost? Can I still use my phone to face time with
    my family here if I change the Sim card? Thanks

    If you're talking about "regular" icloud, then setting it up should have no effect on your music.  Try syncing the device to iTunes and check the music settings and sync again.
    If you subscribe to iTunes Match, is the device in wifi range?

  • If I get my iphone unlocked can I buy a sim card in Spain and then use it there and get free 3g access

    If I get my iphone unlocked can I buy a sim card in Spain and then use it there and get free 3g access

    No. You can't activate any iPhone without a sim card installed. The sim card itself need not be activated, but it must be valid & present. Since you updated the software, the phone requires re-activation, thus you need a sim card. You can borrow one from someone, but bottom line, you need a sim card.

  • Hi anyone. Can I buy an SD card reader for my old Powerbook G4, OSX, 10.4.11 and it's only USB. I've never needed one previously but I now need to update the firmware on my camera. Can I get one, if so which one's best? Many thanks.

    Hi anyone.
    Can I buy an SD card reader for my old Powerbook G4, OSX, 10.4.11 and it's only USB.
    I've never needed one previously but I now need to update the firmware on my camera.
    Can I get one, if so which one's best? Many thanks.

    Hello,
    If it is a PowerBook G4 with a PC Card slot, you have two possibilities. You could buy a USB card reader for SD, or a PC Card adapter (such as SanDisk's 6-in-1adapter). Please note that you are or may be limited to plain SD (that is, not SDHC) unless otherwise noted. For a USB reader, make sure that it has Mac support. BTW, is an SD card absolutely necessary for the firmware update; is there not a way of updating via cable? If you post back with the camera model, someone may be able to provide additional information.

    You can call you're carrier and have them unlock it.

  • Blackberry won't send/receive calls or texts but can still access internet.

    Hi, 
    I have a blackberry curve 9300, it's with Orange but has been unlocked and has an o2 sim in it.
    A couple of weeks ago I lost the phone so I called o2 and they deactivated the sim then sent me a new one, which works perfectly fine. A few days ago someone called up my Dad saying that they had found my phone, but due to it having a lock on it they had to wipe the handset in order to get contact details. I got the phone back, put my sim in it and it won't do anything. It's recognising the sim fine but I can't send or receive calls and texts, yet I can still go on the internet. It used to work absolutely fine before I lost it, so I can't understand as to why it's suddenly not working. I went into o2 this morning but they wouldn't do anything as it's an Orange phone, and Orange wouldn't do anything as it was unlocked, so I'm stuck.
    Any clue as to why this is happening?
    When I try to send a text it has a red X by it and says - Retries Exceeded.
    When I try to call it instantly says - Call Failed.
    Your advice is VERY much appreciated! Pulling my hair out here - I miss my Blackberry and am currently stuck with my old LG. 

    Calls and SMS are carrier functions. Your first step should havw been calling your carrier.

  • Can i use iphone to iphone for free international call and text?

    Can i use iphone to iphone for free international calls and text messages?

    If both iPhone users are on iMessage, texting will be free, though there may be data charges if you do not have Wi-Fi. You can use FaceTime Audio in iOS 7 and later to call people but regular phone calls still count against your phone plan.

  • I can make calls and send text messages on my new iPhone 5, but incoming calls and texts still go to my old (non-Apple) phone. Is this a problem with the phone set up, or is it a problem with my old carrier or my new carrier?

    I can make calls and send texts on my new iPhone 5,  but all incoming calls and texts are received by my old (non-Apple) phone.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Where can I buy a SIM card for my iPad in Germany that will also work in France and Belgium?Germ

    I am travelling to Germany for 2 weeks in mid-July and would like a SIM card that would work there, and France and Belgium.
    Do they sell them in the Frankfurt airport?
    Anyone knows where they sell them in Cologne?
    A company called 'Cellular Abroad Support' (American) will sell me one for $59 plus $8.95 to cut it into a micro SIM.
    What is the best way to go?
    My computer skills are minimal.
    Txs.

    Hi
    On the Toshiba website you can search for the nearest authorized service provider. They sell all original Toshiba spare parts. Call them and ask for a new keyboard, they can order a new one for you.
    Here you can search for the nearest ASP:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Find an authorized service provider
    Second hands you get from eBay for example but normally keyboards are not so expensive so I would buy a new one.
