  • Can't remove my sim card

    I can not remove my SIM Card from Passport.
    On pushing inside , it is going just inside and is not coming out.
    let me know how to eject SIM Card ??
    please reply on email id : [email protected] 

    For my new passport, I cut/wittled my old Samsung's larger SIM card down to nano size.  Therfore it does not have a lip to pull it out with - so I just use a sharp safety pin to gently drag it out. An exacto point would work too.
    If that's too much of a bother, and you want speedier Sim takeouts - you can always glue a pull out thread to it before you insert it.  tie a knot a half inch down and trim the thread.just past the knot

    After researching this topic, I found the placing an old SIM card in a new iPad would be impossible. There is no way for consumers to remove the back cover... Without dropping it off a building. My best suggestion: Use the current plan up first. Then buy a new plan.

  • How can i remove my sim card which is stuck in my ipad3

    Like an idiot I have put my sim card directly into the sim card slot not using the holder. Now it is stuck. Can i remove it?

    Hold the iPad with the SIM slot facing down (over a bed or something soft in case you drop it) and shake it vigorously in all directions. I don't think the SIM card could've wedged itself inside that tightly but I've never seen the interior looks like in that particular area. If you've tried that with no result, take it in to an Apple Store as suggested above.

  • Can I use two SIM cards with one iPhone5s? ie, switch phone numbers and plan, same carrier?

    I live where there is no Cell service in remote BC Canada.  Fortunately, we have highspeed Internet!  Thus, I have been using an iPod Touch 4th gen & Skype to make all my calls for a 2 or 3 years.  I travel a couple of times a month into cell coverage.  I plan to use my iPhone 5s on a iPad Data Package when in cell coverage.  I called and asked bell if I could do so if I bought an unlocked iPhone.  I was told yes, but recieving calls would be very expensive.  I have email notification and a phone number where voice mails are emailed to me, so am able to do without recieving calls in most cases.  However, certain situations lead to frustrating telephone tag.
    Just today, after receiving my unlocked iPhone 5s I realised that Bell also has a pay as you use plan that is very reasonably priced for cell calls only.  If I was able to switch SIM cards I could get both plans.  Thus if recieving a call or placing one was important I could just switch my SIM card.  Could that be done reasonably and practically?
    I would appreciate an answer to this question!

    Let me see if i got this straight. You have two iDevices. One is an iPad, which uses 3G Data. The other one is an iPhone 5s. You plan on purchasing two plans, One thats has only 3G Data, and the other one that has only phone calls, and messages.The answer to your question is Yes. At least i done that with t-mobile USA. If your iPad is compatible with nano-sim cards, yes you can. If not, you will have to buy an iPad with nano-sim such as the iPad mini 3G. This is totaly possible.

  • Can you use a sim card with the ipad??

    I am planning on buying an ipad, but was wondering if there was a sim card option for it. I will be mostly using it in a country where wifi is very scarce. Any input?
    Also, what do they mean by 3G enabled.
    Thank you so much for your help!!!

    A lot depends on how much you intend to use it when away from home.
    Would you be in the vicinity of Wifi hotspots?
    The 3G model costs £100 more (an extra 25% of the cheapest model) plus whatever your data plan is.
    If you are not regularly in the vicinity of hotspots, and not likely to be a heavy user, the cheaper option is to purchase a Mifi (yes, Mifi) device from a network such as 3. It is the size of a small mobile phone and connects wirelessly to your iPad. The device and a 12gb download over 12 months costs very little more than the extra price for the 3G model. Other plans are also available with the 3 network. Google 3 Mifi.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can I take my SIM Card out of my 3GS and insert it in another 3GS?   My daughter dropped my phone in the toilet tonight.   Can I take my SIM card that I've removed and simply put it in another 3GS phone (a relative's old phone) and it work?

    My 4 year old daughter dropped my 3GS in the toilet tonight.  Otterboxes are not waterproof in case you were wondering. : /   
    While my turned off phone is buried in a bag of rice, is it possible that I can take the now removed SIM card and put it in another 3GS for the interim?  I have an other 3GS (my mom's old one that we use as an iTouch for the kids) on hand that is attached to my apple ID.
    If this is possible, is it as simple as taking out the SIM card in my mom's old phone and replacing it with mine?   And does this mess anything up when / if I'm able to salvage my toilet phone?   Can I take the SIM card and simply put it back in my phone after having used it in the other one?
    Thanks.

    Put the SIM in the other phone and Restore it from Backup in iTunes. If the old one revives reverse the process.

    Did you already try the suggestions from this article?

    In certain situations, iPhone may present one of the following symptoms:
    "Invalid SIM" or "No SIM Card installed" alert appears intermittently.
    Status bar displays "No Service", "No SIM" or "Searching" in a location with good network coverage.
    Resolution
    If you encounter any of the above symptoms on your iPhone, try these steps to attempt to resolve the issue:
    Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
    Toggle Airplane mode On and Off.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    Check for a carrier settings update. Tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, a prompt will appear.
    Remove the SIM Card and verify that it is a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it is not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.

  • What happens when I remove my sim card? Can I put my sim back in and it will remain the same or is my data deleted?

    If I was to remove my sim from my iPhone 6 and put it into another phone to use for the night, what happens to my data on my iPhone 6?
    Will everything remain the same (e.g. photos, messages) when I put my sim card back in my iPhone?

    Nothing will happen if you remove your sim card from your iPhone 6.  The only thing that will happen is that you will not be able to use it as a phone - you will have no service.
    Nothing is stored on a sim card of an iPhone - iPhones cannot store data on a sim card - everything is stored on the phone itself, with syncing via iTunes.
    You can take the sim card out and nothing will happen to your data - it is all stored on the phone.

  • Is there a way to remove your sim card if you don't have the tool that came with your phone?

    Is there a way to remove your sim card if you don't have the tool that came with your phone? I wanted to see if I could upload my old information to the iCloud, by putting the new sim card into the old phone, since I didn't before I updated my new phone.

    Any metal clip will do. Insert the tip in the little hole next to the Sim Card and press FIRMLY. The SIM drawer will pop out.

  • Every time I swap between my SIM cards with the iPhone all the messages that we're sent whenever the SIM card was not in my phone never show! is there anyway I can stop this and still get the massages?

    Hello SeamusFitz,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    In order to get your messages to show up on your other phone, you would need to have a backup of the phone with the messages, and then restore the new phone from that backup.
    According to article iTunes: About iOS backups found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946 iTunes will backup your Messages.
    iTunes will back up the following information
    Messages (iMessage and carrier SMS or MMS pictures and videos).
    This will help you backup and restore your device:
