Can I use an iPhone or iPad in USA bought from Europe?

I consider buying an iPhone and iPad from Europe. My problem is that I am going to study in the USA this year and I am not sure if the iPhone and the iPad will work outside my country.

Yes, they will work fine. But note, you have to get your iPhone unlocked by your carrier/provider beforehand.
The GSM networks in the USA:
T-mobile... depending on where you are, will depend on how good it is.
At&t- reliable, but expensive
Straight Talk is the best prepaid option available.

    how can I use my i5 in oman which is bought from Australia?

    Hi,
       I put new sim card (omantel -prepaid) but some msgs. is came.( The sim card that you currently have installed in this phone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the I phone.Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier  or request that this I phone be un locked by your carrier.Please contact Apple for more information ).

  • Why can I not hide iPhone and iPad app purchases made from my iTunes account using the Mac version of iTunes?

    I have applications on my iPhone and iPad that I don't want to show up on the family sharing menu (i.e., kid inappropriate stuff). When I follow the instructions from apple support for hiding apps, my iPhone and iPad apps cannot be "X-ed" out by hovering the mouse over the app icons in iTunes. Why can't I hide these?

    You should be able to hide them, it's just that the 'x' is invisible (I assume that it's a bug with the current version of iTunes) - click on the app's top left corner where the 'x' should be, and it should become hidden.

  • How can I use my iPhone'hot spot to send email from my computer ?

    Hi,
    My land line is dead ... so no phone nor internet at home.  But I can use my iPhone'hot spot to get on the web from my iMac.  Great ... it works ! 
    Oups !   I cannot send email from my computer using my iPhone's hot spot with Mail.
    How do I do that ?
    Regards.
    Robert Lespérance

    Hi iCare,
    Thanks for helping ...   All that configuration is already done.  I am able to surf the web from my computer using my iPhone's hotspot.
    When I want to send an email from my computer, I get a message asking me to select the the SMTP server.  Then I select my usual ISP server, but the message comes back telling me it does not work.
    Is there any other configuration to do ?

  • Can I use my iPhone or iPad as a web cam for my PC via the USB connection?

    I've seen quite a few Apps for doing this wireless, most of which a very poorly executed OR don't work at all. I'm just wondering why it hasn't been more popular to do this via the USB connectivity.

    Thanks Lawrence but the point is, I already own the $600 dollar device (given as a gift) and secondly because to purchase a web cam that has the same quality as the iPhone is actually just a bit more than $10 and I'm not really desirous to spend anymore money based on my budget.  Any ideas of whether or not it can actually be done via USB OR do you have experience with an actual App that works via wireless to a PC?  Thanks again...

  • My wife and I each have an iPhone4 with separate Apple IDs. We are hopefully about to purchase the 4th gen iPad; can we use iCloud on the iPad with separate IDs on the iPhones?

    My wife and I each have an iPhone4 with separate Apple IDs. We are hopefully about to purchase the 4th gen iPad; can we use iCloud on the iPad with separate IDs on the iPhones?
    We would like to have all our music, photos, etc. on the iPad - is it best to create a new combined Apple ID for the iPad and simply upload our music, photos, etc. via our laptop instead? Does this not then render the iCloud useless to us?

    And just in case you were wondering, installing one purchased copy on all the Macs you own is specifically called out as allowed in the Mac OS X Lion license.
    If you do not want to download multiple times, just copy the Applications -> Install Lion app to a safe place BEFORE you do the first install.  Then copy that copy to any Mac you own where you want to install Lion.

  • Can i use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air

    Can I use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air?

    It's really not recommended. The iPhone's 5w charger does not output enough current to properly charge the battery. It -may- charge but if it did, it would charge the iPad very slowly.
    This would be like trying to fill a bucket of water (iPad) with a squirt gun (5w charger)
    Also under iOS 7, the charging requirements are much stricter than iOS 6. You'll likey get an error message if you try.

    Can I use my Iphone 4 charger to charge my Ipad 2?

    Nothing will be ruined by offering less power. Options for charging given in the documentations include USB sockets on your computer, which only offer half of the power of the iPhone charger. Any method of charging will work, differing only in how long it will take.

    You can get apps for a Mac (and the iPs device) that allows you to use the iOS device as a webcam.

    I don't know about that for sure, but my guess is that it won't matter.  Battery technology today is much better.   You should follow Apples battery tips here:

  • Can I use my iPhone in Europe and will it work as a hotspot for my iPad?

    Can I use my iPhone in Europe and will it work as a hotspot for my iPad?

    It didn't work for me during my February 2013 visit to Switzerland. The Personal Hotspot feature on my iPhone 4S works fine when I am in the US. Upon arrival in Switzerland, my phone connected to the Swisscom network. Phone calls, SMS, Web, and E-mail worked fine on the iPhone. Funny is the Personal Hotspot feature completely disappeared from the settings menu while there. It reappeared once I was back in the US.

    and i can't fine any access pint name changing option in ipad plz help me

    You might be able to use your iPhone sim. FaceTime calls are only possible over wifi or you can get something like the Skype For iPad app from the store if you want to make video calls over 3G - but you can't do 'normal' phone calls with the iPad.
