Can i use the new 3g iphone in Japan and the US and switch between simcards

I subscribe to both softbank in japan and at&t in the states (both sole distributors of the new phone)
was wondering if i could just buy the NEW 3g iphone and switch my sim-card in and out when i go between japan and the states??

Unfortunately the answer is definitely no. I live in Japan but travel to the US frequently so I have an AT&T US iPhone account and a Softbank iPhone 3G account.
The best you are going to get is at least the ability to roam in either country effortlessly with 3G, which of course is silly due to the ridiculous roaming fees.
But, I am pretty sure this will be such a wide spread agitation that it will be hacked away into oblivion much to the chagrin of the carriers.

I have Old ID's that I want to delete,also I changed my ID and redeemed an ITune card with my old ID, I can't use my new ID to buy coins from the 8 Ball app

I installed the 8 Ball app using my old ID I also redeemed a 25$ ITunes card, I want to buy more coins but can't using my new ID, also the password for my previous ID keeps me from updating the apps I have, there's Justine more thing, I have been asked to put a password for an ID I don't recognize

You can't delete iTunrd accounts, all you can do is remove personal info from them and stop using them - any content that you downloaded with an account will remain tied to it.
As apps are tied to the account, you can only make in-app purchases using the account that you bought the app with - so you will only be able to make in-app purchases using the old account.
For the app update, if you don't recognise the account id is showing for the app, then did somebody else download that app onto your iPad ? Only the account that bought/downloaded an app can download updates to its apps.

Look iTunes>Preferences>Devices...is a backup listed for your iPhone 5 dated BEFORE you restored your iPhone 4 backup to your iPhone 5? If not, your data is gone. If there is a backup, on your iPhone 5: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You should now be able to restore that backup, if it exists, to your iPhone 5.

Hi,
You have 2 solutions:
1 - You can use 2 differents icloud account
2 - You use the same account but you don't sync yours contacts.
You configure that in Settings > icloud
You activate or desactivate what you want.
Have a nice day.

Using a local network in the philippines for the new 3g IPHONE

i wuold just want to know if il be buying the new 3g iphone in the US by july, would i be able to use it in the Philippines using the local network there.

If you purchase the 3G phone in the US, it must be activated with AT&T at or very near the time of purchase. You can certainly bring it to the Phillippines, but you will be paying very hefty international roaming and data rates.

Uses for old iPhone once we upgrade to the new 3G iPhone

I'm considering upgrading to the new 3G iPhone. What happens to the old iPhone? Can it be used as a simple music player with the phone feature turned off?
THANKS!

Yes, you actually have to buy the iPhone 3G to upgrade from your old iPhone. You will get the $199/$299 price. If you had bought it after May 27th, you could have exchanged it in-store with a $20 restocking fee, but this isn't the case, so you will get the subsidized price of $199/$299.

I am having a problem. When I click on the Mobile Facebook icon it acts like it is going to start opening then it quits and goes back to the icon. So I can't use Facebook on my iPhone 4

Force quit the application and try again.
Try a reset or restart of the device, trying the app after each step.

Make a backup of your stuff (from the phone. apps/photos/music/blabla). Update your phone. The phone will restore the backup automatically.

As long as the profiles are different (ex. HID vs AD2P) you will not have any issues. But say if you try to use 2 keyboards at once, it won't work. Or 2 headsets at once. Your scenario seems fine.

What problems specifically? If you have a problem you should start your own thread and explain the problem in detail.
External USB devices including hard drives and DVD work fine on the new Macbook Pros.

Yes, they are interchangable.

I-tunes is note letting me access i-tunes store without first dowloading the new version of i-tunes. The problem is that my older operating system won't work and is not allowing the newer i-tune versions to work. How can I just get use the old i-tunes?

Hi,
Not sure if any of you above have managed to solve your problem or not but after coming across this same problem myself today as I am currently 'sofa bound' I decided to make it my mission to find a way around it.
Initially I did think, having ready what seemed like a million questions and people with the same problem, that the only way was to buy OS X 10.5 ... HOWEVER, no. In among all these threads I found a jewel - Download I Tunes 9.2.1 which gets rid of the download itunes 10 advert and allows you to then buy from itunes again :-) I am now one very happy lady.
I apologise to all those that dont have older versions of OS X that maybe wont support even this upgrade but certainly for those like me with just 4yr old lap tops at least it means it not longer means buying a new one.
Hope this helps son very frustrated people like myself - so much for apple support!
