Can i give my old iphone 4 to a friend in the Uk to use, my provider is AT&T

Can I give my old iphone 4 to my father-in-law to use in the UK? my provider is AT&T

If he plans on activating the iPhone with a carrier in the UK, you will need to request an unlock for the iPhone with AT&T.

  • Can I move my old iPhone 4 to another account in the same family plan

    I currently have an iPhone 4 and a 3GS on the same family plan.  I would like to upgrade to the 4s (with a new 2-yr contract) and replace my old 3GS with my old 4 (without re-upping for 2 more years for the privilege of swapping old phones).  Is this possible?

    Yes.
    Stop by an ATT corporate store to request a new micro-SIM card for the iPhone 4 where the iPhone 4 can also be activated with the line/number that is currently using the 3GS. The 3GS will be deactivated automatically at that time.

  • I was trying to give my old iphone 4 to my friend and I can't restore it.

    I was attempting to give my friend my old at&t iphone 4 but after trying to remember my old password I disabled the phone. I was told to just restore it but I can't get itunes to pick up the phone to restore it. I tried to force it into recovery mode but this is when itunes doesn't recognise it. When its turned on it says I have to use my password which I don't remember. I use to have a mac but now have a new pc so is there anyway to restore the phone for my friend now? Like I said its my old phone and I was trying to help a friend but its disabled and itunes won't restore it.

    I have tried this as well. It is currently in dfu ( black screen ). Itunes still won't pick it up. It only recognizes the phone when it is turned on normally. Dfu and recovery don't seem to be picked up by itunes at all.

  • I would like to give my old iPhone to a friend who would be on a different carrier, is this possible?

    I have recently upgraded to the iPhone 6 and would like to give my old iPhone 4S to a friend in Argentina. Can i do this, if so how? Would his carrier just put their SD card in the side?

    It's very unlikely.  Here are at least some of the conditions you would have to satisfy.
    Ask the original iPhone 4S' cellular carrier if they will unlock the iPhone.  If their answer is "no", you are finished and cannot proceed.
    If the original carrier would unlock the iPhone, you would have to do this before passing it to your friend.
    Check Settings > Genreal > About > Model and record the model number you see.
    Ask your friend to contact their cellular carrier to find out if they support that particular model.

  • I want to give my old iPhone 4 to my grandson to use like an iPod Touch. Wifi only. How do I deactivate my info..so he can buy his own apps. and not have the cloud pushing all of my data to the old phone?

    I want to give my old iPhone 4 to my grandson to use like an iPod Touch. Wifi only. How do I deactivate my info..so he can buy his own apps. and not have the cloud pushing all of my data to my old phone?
    Just turning off Cloud will not prevent him from turning it back on.
    Rignt now, if he uses the App store, iTunes thinks it's talking to me.

    First, turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account, while your sim is still in the phone. Then: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. Give it to your grandson & he gat then set it up as he wants.
    Important your turn iMessage & FaceTime off to disassociate the phone from your Apple ID. Apple "claims" to have fixed this with iOS 6.0, but until I can absolutely confirm such, I still recommend you turn all of that stuff off first.

    You should erase the iPhone and set up as new with her AppleID.
    To rename it, in additionto Kappy's explanation, you can simply go to Settings > General - About, tap the iPhone name and change it.
    However, when you erase and and set up as new iwth her account it will be named {Daughter's name) iPhone.
    do you know how I can sync my old phone to my current iTune accont without it affecting my new iPhone?
    Plug it in and sync it.
    Syncing one device has absolutely nothing to do with syncing any other device.

  • HT1386 I want to give me old iphone 4 to my daughter and need to get all her info from her old iphone onto a new computer.  The PC she synced with is dead and she does not want to loose all her contacts and music.

    I want to give my old iphone 4 to my daughter and need to get all her info from her old iphone 3 onto a new computer.  The PC she synced with is dead and she does not want to loose all her contacts and music. How can I do this?

    To effectively transfer ownership of the iPhone requires that it be "restored" as a new device.
    ...  The PC she synced with is dead
    The iPhone is not a backup device. Your computer backs up the iPhone, not the other way around. What you use to back up your computer is up to you - Macs use Time Machine. I assume PCs use something similar.
    If her PC backup is dead you will have difficulty extracting content from the iPhone since it is not designed to work that way.
    All her Apple purchases can easily be transferred to another iPhone. However, her contacts will be gone, as will any music or other contact obtained from sources other than Apple.
    There are a number of third party utilities that claim to be able to extract content from an iPhone. See wjosten's procedure here:

  • I want to give my old iPod touch to a friend.  How do I get my Apple ID off of it so he can buy his own music and apps?

    I want to give my old iPod touch to a friend.  How do I get my Apple account ID off of it so he can use his own password and account?

    Unless you want to go through the full routine of deleting the Apple ID and any personal information...and keep in mind, all content is owned by the Apple ID used to download it so nothing on there can be updated.
    Go to Settings > iTunes and App Stores > Apple ID and remove the ID.
    Go to Settings > iCloud or any other place you will have links to your own account and remove the links.
    Go to Settings > Mail, Calendars and Contacts and remove all account information.
    Go to Settings > Messages and remove all account information
    Go to Settings > WiFi and remove all account information.
    And so on.

  • I am about to upgrade my ipod. i want to give my old ipod nano to a friend. what do i need to do so they can use it on their computer?

    i am about to upgrade my ipod and want to give my old ipod nano to a friend. what do i need to do so thay can use it on their computer and create their own itunes account?

    Connect it to iTunes, select the Nano in the "devices" column and click "Restore". The warning window you get will ask you if this is what you really want to do.
    Your very lucky friend will essentially have it in the same condition as if she bought it new.
    One more thing: if you registered it in My Support Profile, make sure to un-register it. Only you can do that. Have your friend register it under her own Apple ID.

  • Can I turn my old Iphone into Ipod? It says that I need a valid SIM card

    can I turn my old Iphone into Ipod? It says that I need a valid SIM card

    Follow these steps to use your iPhone without a wireless service plan:
    Insert the SIM card from your new, activated iPhone or one that was previously used to activate the original iPhone.
    Connect the iPhone to iTunes on a computer connected to the Internet.
    Once iTunes activates the device, you're free to remove the SIM card and use the iPhone as if it were an iPod touch.
