Can I use my iPhone 4S model A1387 in USA

I am visiting the USA from South Africa and want to know if I can buy a SIM card to use in my iPhone 4S (model A1387).

If your phone is officially unlocked, yes you can use it in the US on one of the two GSM carriers here. Your best bet is T-Mobile...go to any T-Mobile store when you get to the US & they'll fix you up. Your only other choice is AT&T...there are only two nationwide GSM carriers in the US...but AT&T is not very friendly to travelers & will act like they've never heard of pay-as-you go sims for the iPhone. They want all iPhone users under contract.
So, go to a T-Mobile store when you get here.

  • Can I use the iPhone 5s case for the iPhone 5?

    Can I use the iPhone 5s case for the iPhone 5?

    Do cases made for iPhone 5 also work with iPhone 5s?
    While iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s have the same shape and size, the camera and LED flash are different. So cases made for iPhone 5 may affect the camera operation on iPhone 5s, and vice versa. When shopping for cases, you should choose one specifically made for the iPhone model you own.

  • I want to buy an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free). While I travelling to India, can I use the iphone with a local-SIM in INDIA.

    I want to buy an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free).
    While I travelling to India, can I use the iphone with a local-SIM in INDIA.

    I am looking into buying an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free) from apple store in US.
    While in India, I am looking to use it with a local-SIM (Local carrier) in INDIA (Eg: Airtel, Vodaphone etc). Will it work ?
    While browsing iphone products in the Apple store, I did not find any iphone referring to "Unlocked" but ended up with SIM-free as the only option (http://store.apple.com/us/buy-iphone/iphone5s/64gb-gold-unlocked?aid=www-k2-ipho ne%205s%20-%20index-n@p&cp=k2-iphone%205…).
    I also found the following information from the apple store - When you travel internationally, you can use a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5s from a local GSM carrier. The unlocked iPhone 5s model is A1533 (GSM).
    If Apple is the only source of unlocked iphones, could someone provide the link to the store.

  • Can I use my iphone 4g microsim with my old iphone 3g interchangably?

    can I use my iphone 4g microsim with my old iphone 3g interchangably using a microsim adapter? PLEASE CONFIRM IF YOU KNOW THANKS

    There is no such thing as an iPhone 4G. The model is iPhone 4 as in 4th generation in the line of iPhones. As for using a SIM adapter or cutting a SIM card to fit in one of Apple's iPhones it would void the warranty with Apple. Apple doesn't support SIM card adapters and especially don't warranty users cutting SIM cards to fit a MicroSIM card slot.

  • If I dont have wifi at home, can i use my iphone 4s to connect to the router?

    If I dont have wifi at home, can i use my iphone 4s to connect to the router and how?

    A lot of routers have the network name (ssid) and security key (password) for their wi-fi function  printed on a sticker on the bottom or back
    It sounds like your uncle is talking about a router with a wps ( wi-fi protected setup) function where you can press a button on the pc and router and then the router sends the network info to the pc, well unfortunately this does not work with the iPhone, you will need the password.
    Alternatively you can get the password by entering the routers internet based managment page by typing in its ip address into the address bar of your web browser ( usually this is somthing like 192.168.1.1 if this dosent work try googling the manufacturers name, model number and a query  e.g. linksys 54geu router managment ip address? ) if after typing in the router management ip address you get a page asking for a user name and password try entering Admin for the username and password for the password ( these are somtimes used as defaults untill you log in and change them) if these dont work they have probably been changed. Once in the router management page go to the wireless section and you will find the  network security key (password) in the security tab usually these are obscured as astrixes but ticking the show characters box will let you see them.

  • Can I use my iphone 3GS exchange iphone 4

    I am in australia.can I use my iphone 3GS exchange iphone 4

    Sorry. That doesn't make sense.
    If you're trying to ask if you can exchange an iPhone 3GS for an iPhone 4, no. Apple does not have an upgrade program that would allow you to do this. If your 3GS is not functioning, and you want an out of warranty exchange, you will be given the exact same model as you have now.

  • Can i use my iphone connection to run ipod touch

    Can i use my iphone connection to run my ipod touch.  My ipod has more memory and i have had it for a few years.  All good apps and info on it.  Can i use the phone connection to run my ipod.  ext maps/ gps

    GPS information cannot be output from the iPhone to any other device.
    The only way to get Internet access on the iPod Touch is via Wi-Fi.  To get a Wi-Fi signal from the iPhone it must be running iOS4 and be an iPhone4.  This would also require a tethering capable data plan from the carrier.
    A simpler solution would be to upgrade to a larger capacity iPhone like the 32GB model.  Then there is only one device to be carried.

  • HT1386 I can't use my iphone after upgrading to IOS5

    Can someone help?  I can't use my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios5.

    I have iphone 3 GS.  I upgraded the software to ios 5 and the phone is now can't be accessed.  All I can see is the Gray screen says Iphone.  It ask me to set it up, choose your country, wifi, etc.  when I did that, it always stop at the page where it says "Apple activation server is down, please try it again".  Tried so many times but the same messages kept showing up.  Connect it to Itunes, itunes said there is no sim card installed.  I went to AT&T to get the new simcard and it still saying the same thing.  don't know what's wrong with it.

  • How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

    How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

    They need to be registered under different Apple ID's.  The initial Apple ID is set when you first start the phone up.  If you've already registered the phone to the iTunes account, back it up to your computer, and then have iTunes do a factory reset.  Go to www.icloud.com, log in with your current Apple ID, select "Find My iPhone," choose the iPhone you want to dissociate from your primary Apple ID from the upper left, and then click the little circled X ("remove").
    When you start the phone, it will have you go through the setup process again, at which time you need to create a unique Apple ID for the device.  You can then restore it from your iTunes backup to get back your apps and other settings.
    Whenever you use the iTunes store, use the login information (Apple ID and password) that you were using before.  Basically, the second Apple ID that you created is purely used for accessing iCloud services, which includes synchronization of contacts, iCal events, and other such things.
