Changed from 3GS to 3G. Now I can't receive iMessages.

Hey, I recently lost my iPhone 3GS, and I'm now using a 3G that I found on ebay. As it turns out, I can't receive iMessages from iPhones which I used to iMessage with. This means I can't receive texts at all from these numbers.
I've already tried unregistering the phone, but it didn't help? Anybody know what I can do?
Thanks.

Hey, thanks for replying.
I'm not necessarily looking for the iMessage feature, just to be able to recieve SMS messages instead from these iPhone users. Is this possible? Maybe it's something that can be done on their end?
Apparently it comes up on my friends' phones that the iMessage has sent, even though I can't receive it.

My iphone 5 fell down from the table and now I can't touch screen or do anything with it anymore. I send it to Istudio in Thailand and they said it is non authorized so they will not fix for me. I search google and they said that my LCD has problem but people in here said the chip inside my phone have problem??? Please tell me what I need to do. And if I have to change the new, how can I know it is new or fake? Could you give me the price of it please? I'm not Thai people. I study in here so I dont know where to fix it. Please recommend me any truthly store in there if you know. Thank you so much!!!

You will need to wait for Apple to rectify the issue. Do not make changes at your end.

iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

I just bought a new Iphone and when I connected it to itunes and I downloaded the backup from my last device, now I can't pass this step and every time I connect it to itunes is the same thing.

I just bought a new Iphone and when I connected it to itunes and I downloaded the backup from my last device, now I can't pass this step and every time I connect it to itunes is the same thing. And I can't download any app because problems with my account regarding the credit card but the information is correct and it says it is not!!!

You'll have to contact iTunes store support regarding your credit card information problem: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html. I'm not clear on what you're saying about your backup. Are you saying that when you connect to iTunes it's asking you to restore from backup even though you already have?

Leopard. Did a full restore from Time Machine. Now I can't access my other internal and external drives. I get the following error: The folder "Capture Video" can't be opened because you don't have permission to see its contents.

Leopard. Did a full restore from Time Machine. Now I can't access my other internal and external drives. I get the following error: The folder “Capture Video” can’t be opened because you don’t have permission to see its contents. I have repaired permissions pn the main harddrive. When I try too click on a disk I get the previously stated error. I can't even open up information to see what permission/access there is. It simply will not let me see the content. It shows the content of my main hard drive when I have clicked the other harddrive's name.

Solved:
sudo chflags 0 /Volumes/"FCP Time Machine BU"
sudo chown 0:80 /Volumes/"FCP Time Machine BU"
sudo chmod 775 /Volumes/"FCP Time Machine BU"
sudo chmod -N /Volumes/"FCP Time Machine BU"

Help! Bought an IPod from a PC user, now I can't connect it to my Mac!

I bnought an IPod from a friend who was using it with a PC. I erased all of it's memory and then restored it using the IPod updater software I got from apple.com. Now, I can't connect it to my Mac, and the IPod screen goes from the "apple" display, to the unsmiling Mac man on a file folder. None of the suggestions on the Apple support page seem to work, any suggestions?

Put it in Disk Mode, connect it with your Mac again, open the disk utility and you will able to see your iPod icon there, hightlight it, and go to tab "Erase" and do a erase (format in Mac OS externded (Journaled)). Once it has been completed, do a eject and reset your iPod. Open the iPod Updater and plug your iPod back with your Mac, and click Restore.

I deleted the iCloud application from my macbook. Now I can't find how to redownload it?

I deleted the iCloud application from my macbook. Now I can't find how to redownload it?

My understanding is it should show up here on my system preferences page. This is a screenshot of what my system preferences looks like. I think it is supposed to be under the "Internet & Network" section?
iCloud should be showing where you are seeing "Mobile Me".
What is your MacOS X version? You can see the version number from the -menu in the main menu bar: " > About this Mac".
You need at least MacOS X 10.7.5 to be using iCloud. http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f1e2a
What exactly did you do to make the iCloud panel vanish? Did you reinstall your system?

Your phone will need to be unlock in order to send the picture.
i.e. if your using the quick access camera while the phone is lock with the passcode, you will need to unlock the phone first then you can send the pic from your camera roll.
