You'll need a SIM card to activate it, but after that, you can remove the SIM card.

  • How do I make my old iphone work like an ipod touch without the sim card?

    I upgraded to a 3G iPhone and love it. I want to be able to use my old iPhone like an iPod touch, but when I ran a sync it wouldn't let me do anything without a sim card and now it's useless and empty. Is there a way to bypass the activation and get it to sync to allow me to use the wireless functions and standard iPod functions? Thanks in advance for any help. I am new to these forums, so if this question has been asked and answered previously please just let me know.

    There's ways to activate your phone to use it like an ipod, not available thru apple. It's really easy to do, if all you want to do is activate it without a SIM. Try googling for it.. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to post a link or anything or if that's against the rules because it's not supported by apple... PM me if you want I guess and I can help or answer other questions.

  • Can i use my iphone 3 in new zealand with a nz sim card without it needing to be unlocked?

    can i use my iphone 3 in new zealand with a nz sim card in it without it needing to be unlocked?

    That depends... its is ALREADY unlocked? If so, then you should be fine.  If the phone is carrier locked, then no, obviously you can't use it with a SIM from another carrier without getting it unlocked first.

  • 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.

  • Can You Use The iPhone 4S As An Ipod Touch?

    I'm just curious...
    I currently have the ipod touch 3G and last weekend I found out that it won't be compatiable with iOS 6 and I'm gonna have to get a new ipod.
    I want an iphone BUT do you need to activate it with a carrier (which I don't want) in order to use the itunes store/app store on it or can you just use it like you would an ipod touch?

    You activate with Apple not a carrier but you do need "A" sim
    in a new iPhone to activate the iPhone
    The above link will help on using without a sim

  • How can I use Iphone 4 as an mp3 player without a sim card until I get one?

    Hi,
    How can I use Iphone 4 as an mp3 player without a sim card until I get one? I just bought the phone and each time I try to switch it on to use the mp3 player, I cannot. It asks me to insert a sim card and I don't have a sim card yet. I was thinking I could use the mp3 player function of my phone until I buy a sim card.
    Thank you for your help in advance,

    Thank you, I understand, yeah, I knew that, my phone is factory unlocked and I am going home, which is obviously not in the States and I am thinking of buying a local carrier there. However, I still have 2 weeks before I leave and cannnot wait to start using my Iphone 4. I thought at least I could use the mp3 player function. So as far as I understand, I cannot activate it without a sim card. I have been using metropcs for about two years and it does not have a sim card. In this case, do I really not have another choice but wait for two weeks to listen to music? My Mp3 player just failed me and I really need to listen to music but on the other hand, while I can use my iphone as an mp3 player in two weeks, I don't want to spend more money on a new one. So, do you have another suggestion? For instance, can I use a friend's sim card to activate mine? Would this cause any trouble, when I go home and buy a local carrier? I think these questions might kinda sound weird to you, but first time with an Iphone, extremely excited to start using under my circumstances, I need help   thanks,

    If AT&T authorized the unlock and it was succcessfully completed, then you should be able to use your iPhone with any cell carrier in the Philippines that offers compatible GSM service. You'll need to get a SIM from that carrier.

  • Can i use the iphone just for the ipod and wifi without simcard

    can i use the iphone just for the ipod and wifi without simcard

    Forgive me as I did this a while ago, but heres how I remember it happening:
    1. I wiped it
    2. I selected "Set up as New iPhone"
    3. It registered
    4. It was activated, and was an iPod Touch basically
    5. I sold it, so I can't try it. I now use Verizon, so no SIM, although I do have an original iPhone (retired), but can't find my old SIM.

    Can I use an iPad, iPad Mini and iPod touch on the same account?  Is there a limit to how many devices I can use?

    When you turn on your iDevice for the first time just sign in with the same Apple ID and you can download any apps you have purchased in the past! There shouldn't be a limit to how many devices you can use.

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
