You will have to trim the std SIM . Best getting the trimmer tool its about £5 and looks just like a modified stapler !

The iPhone must be unlocked (Bought from Apple and not another network provider) , or officially been unlocked after the requisite qualifying period and fee payment as applicable.
All the UK suppliers are bound to unlock on request however they can add certain restrictions - Everyone Everywhere (New name of combined Orange and T-Mobile UK) require minimum of three months usage and a £20.00 fee, O2 you can do online . 3 will also do online, Vodafone not so sure of their terms.
When you do get the card cut and iPhone working its not all over however because you are going to have to do some manual settings to get full functionality as your iPhone will almost certainly assume the settings for T-Mobile/Orange the primary carrier.
This may mean that you can not send texts or access the Internet straight away.
You may need to click on Settings/General/Network/Cellular Data Network and change the following settings.

    Iphone 4 supports a micro-sim but iPhone 5, 5c and 5s supports a nano sim which is slightly shorter than micro-sim so you have to trim your micro-sim into a nano sim or you can get a new one

    The warranty for the iPhone is not and has never been International.
    Warranty and support are ONLY valid in the country of origin.  The only exception is the EU where the entire EU is treated as one country.
    If the device will be used in India, buy it in India.
    An unlocked iPhone will work on any supported GSM carrier world wide.  The LTE portion of a US purchased, unlocked iPhone is unlikely to work outside North America as it does not support the appropriate bands used in other countries.

    Hi there,
    I bought My Iphone 4s from Iran, I need to make an Apple Id but Iran is not in the registered countries?! I dont know what to choose? Also From Iran we do not have Credit card facility for payment option?!! Any idea how I can get FREE APPS on my New Phon?!!
    Please let me know how I can get this sorted as soon as possible!! Thank you very much

    You can create an Apple ID without a credit card, see this article:
    Create an iTunes App Store account without a credit card
    Check this post about iPhones from Iran:

  • How do I get the none button to pop up so u don't have to have a credit card for apps? I owe nothing for apps from Apple, NOTHING!? And it still does not show the option "none". If it helps the card I have is a debit.

    I'm happy you figured it out and just try to keep in mind that not everyone you talk to at support will give the same advice or have the same knowledge. Just like those who contribute to these forums. Sometimes Google is your best friend.
    I agree that Apple could probably make it easier, but as of yet prefer security over freedom. (sound famaliar?)

  • I have a debit card but would like to download apps from the store. how do I do that? I can't possibly get a credit card just for this. please help.

    Hi,
    I have an iTouch. I'd like to download some free apps. but I have a debit card but would like to download apps from the store. how do I do that? I can't possibly get a credit card just for this. please help.

    I really do not think it is the iPad or your network connection. Other users have reported this very same issue. Try this and see if it works for you - it may not work - but it's easy to try - harmless - and it has worked in the past for others.
    Try signing out of your account and restart your iPad.
    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Go back to Settings>Store> Apple ID and sign in again.

  • When I try to send a calendar invite I get the following error ... iCal was unable to send the invitation.  To be able to send invitations, you need to create an address card for yourself in Address Book.

    I have deleted and recreated "My Card" several times, but iCal is still not recognizing the card.  The application was working fine until a few weeks ago.  I recently purchased Microsoft Office for Mac but have not installed any other new software.  Also checked to make sure my mac software is updated.  Help!!!

    ebnovotny,
    Have you also used Address Book>Card>Make This My Card?
    If you have, you could also quit iCal, find the com.apple.ical.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences folder and drag it to the Desktop. Then log out/in or restart and check if your card is recognized.

    Every time I switch on the iPhone, the iTunes icon is displayed together with a USB icon and Emergency call message appears on the screen in many languages. When I touch the i symbol I get the following information IMEI: **** AND ICCID: ****
    However, the iphone is visible in the Devices directory in iTunes. I changed my SIM card but still can not be recognized by the iPhone.

    Do you mean when you say its locked to another carrier other then the one im using, that maybe my insurance sent me an iphone thats for a different network for example orange and not mine which is o2?

  • Hi i just ended my service with my service provider and was wondering if i have to do anything to use my iphone 3gs with another carrier. do i need to get it unblocked to be able to use another sim card

    I just ended service with my at&t and was wondering if i have to do anything like have my phone unblocked to use another sim card or use another provider

    I have a 3GS, out of contract with AT&T. I emailed for the unlock, and got an email saying:
    "Request number: (xxxxxx)
    Thank you for contacting AT&T Customer Care about unlocking your iPhone.
    We have reviewed your request and confirmed that you are eligible to have the requested iPhone unlocked.
    Please allow 24 hours upon receipt of this notification to complete the unlock.
    To complete the unlock, simply:
    Open iTunes on your Mac or PC and verify that you have Internet connectivity.
    Ensure a SIM card is inserted into your iPhone.
    Connect your iPhone using the dock connector to USB cable that came with your iPhone.
    Backup and restore your iPhone using iTunes. For information on backup and restore, please visit http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.

    Now the deal here is, iOS 6 is out now, so in order to complete the instructions and restore it with iTunes, you have to update to iOS 6. I decided to keep 5.1.1, so I did NOT restore the phone. I checked a couple IMEI checker sites, and they all said my IMEI was unlocked, so rather than use iTunes, I just replaced the AT&T SIM with an O2-UK SIM card I had when using my Android phone in England. I was pleased to see T-Mobile show up as my carrier when I turned the iPhone on, and in Settings, it shows O2 as the carrier instead of AT&T, due to the O2 SIM being installed. Then a moment later, I got texts saying what my remaining British £ balance is, since I had leftover money on the SIM from my last trip, and another text said "Welcome to America, have a nice trip!"
    The phone isn't jailbroken or anything like that. It's still on 5.1.1 with the proper, working Google mapping. Never restored via iTunes. Never updated to iOS 6. Any SIM card works. No tricks or hacks. You don't have to restore the phone to complete the unlock.

  • Hello. I've just bought a new iPhone 6 in miami apple store as a unlocked phone. But now it shows the message that my phone is locked and I can't use my russian sim card. What I need to do to unlock it?

    . I've just bought a new iPhone 6 in miami apple store as a unlocked phone. But now it shows the message that my phone is locked and I can't use my russian sim card. What I need to do to unlock it?

    The device is locked to Verizon wireless not a Russian cell provider.
    You can use Verizon here in the states. Get a Verizon Sim.
    In out of the country use, pop in that Sim and it should work. However Verizon does not unlock for use in the USA.
    And you must be a Verizon customer to get it unlocked to use in other countries. Apple claims it will work in other countries.
    Good Luck

  • My I Phone keeps sayins "no sims Card" in the upper left hand corner of the phone, what does that mean? And I can't connect to WI-FI right now, WhY?

    My I Phone 5 is saying "no Sims" card in the upper left hand cornor of the phone, what does that mean? And I can't get connected to Wi-Fi, why not???

    If the Wi-Fi diagnostics are okay then check your own Wi-Fi router to find out how many clients are connected. The number of clients may not matter but how much data Hogging is going on. If you have multiple computer Services accounts active Wi-Fi cannot handle that much. Examples would be two people playing World of Warcraft, Two people watching a Netflix movie or AppleTV movie, One person Downloading iTunes movies or music at the same time. That accounts for a lot of Wi-Fi usage.

  • I have added a work colleague to my family's members on iCloud so we can share the calendar for work appointments. However whe heakes purchases on iTunes I now get charged. How can I stop this happening?

    ive added my work coleague to my iCloud account so we can share the calendar on our I-phones for work appointments. when he makes a purchase on iTunes i now get charged though so how do I stop this from happening? also can I just share only work appointments or do i have to share the whole calendar with him? Can I select what he sees?

    Hi Frantic503,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    When you are the Family Sharing organizer, purchases are billed to your account unless the family member making purchases has an iTunes Gift Card or iTunes credit on their account. The attached article has more information on how this process works. 
    Family Sharing - Apple Support
    What I may suggest in your situation would be to discontinue the Family Sharing and use iCloud calendar sharing. Using this method keeps your accounts separate but allows you to still share your calendar. 
    iCloud: Share a calendar with others
    Have a great day,
    Joe

    I just got my replacement phone from Warranty. The phone was on for just 2 hours and it crashed. I was told that motorola knows about this "possible" issue. I got a new sim, hard reset, If it can be done I did it. They are now sending me the same phone again. Number 3. I would hope this one doesn't crash but I rather have a different phone so I can enjoy using my account. The phone's most recent error was today. " Unfortunately, the process com.motorola.widget.circlewidget3d" has stopped. At least the error message works and it's polite. I told tech this and they could not answer my question or help me other then "let's do a hard reset" My warranty replacement is coming on Monday. Let's hope this one works. Anyone else havinbg the same problem. it says "such and such as stop working" on all sorts of stuff! Help! I want my iPhone Back!

    I just did a google search on this issue. OMG, I got a ton of videos on this or similar issues. Each one says in some way to clear the cache, reset the data, etc. Why in the world would this continue to happen and they not do a fix that resloves this without having to lose or stop what your doing. This is a very long and constant issue it seems with Android phones as there must have been pages and pages of what I now call "Unfortunately"  So I am going to pray that Verizon helps me  out and gets me away from this issue and helps me go back to iPhone or try the Samsung.
