  • Can I use the nano sim card of iPhone 5C for an iPhone 4S?

    My grandmother has been thinking of buying an iPhone 5C (because she saw a good deal) and she wants to give it to me and use her old iPhone 4S. The problem is that she wants to use the nano sim card of the 5C for her 4S in order to save her phone number that she will receive once she buys the phone. Is it possible for a 4S to work with the sim card of a 5C?

    if you use an adaptor to make it a microSim if thats what your 4s use then yes

  • Can I use the nano sim card from my HTC One (M8) for an iPhone 6?

    I am getting a Mac and with Yosemite, it's geared towards iPhones. So, I have decided I want to get an iPhone 6. However, I don't want to spend the extra money to upgrade through AT&T. If I order the iPhone 6 off the internet, can I put the nano sim from my current phone (HTC One M8) into the iPhone 6?

    A lot would also depend on where on the internet you are making the phone purchase from. Are you trying to purchase an AT&T phone from Apple, or something else? I'm guessing you are located in the US?

  • How will i be able to use my micro sim card from my iPhone 4s, in the nano sim card tray in the iphone 5?

    How will i be able to use my micro sim card from my iPhone 4s, in the nano sim card tray in the iphone 5?

    You can't. The nano SIM is 15% thinner compared to its previous two generations, so even if it is cut in the same size, the thickness would be different, meaning the cut micro SIM cannot fit into the nano SIM slot.

  • I changed my number along with my sim card and imessage will not recognize my new number. how can i have imessage forget my old number and use my new number?

    i changed my number along with my sim card and imessage will not recognize my new number. how can i have imessage forget my old number and use my new number?
    i have tried signing out of imessage and signing back in. (when i do that and am asked to select my email adress, i see my new number but it is greyed out and i cant select it)

    But under send and receive, my old number is still displayed while my new number isn't.

  • Where do I get a nano SIM card for my iPad which works in the USA so I can use Tom Tom app

    Where do I get a nano SIM card for my iPad which will work in the USA.  I need to get on line in the car. Do I need one from AT&T  and can you get in the USA as easily as getting a sin card here.

    We don't know where "here" is.
    You don't need a sim card to use any navigation app. Navigation apps use GPS which is independent of cellular data.

  • Using AT&T prepaid nano sim card on unlocked and sim free iPhone 6

    I'm currently a Boost Mobile customer and planing to get a unlocked and sim free iPhone 6 (model:A1586). If I buy AT&T prepaid nano sim card, will this work? How do I activate the sim card with keeping my current phone number?

    It should work, You are going to have to contact AT&T and have the number ported to your AT&T gophone account.

  • How do i get the nano sim card for my unlocked iphone 5c to work on verizon

    I bought an iphone 5c from Apple last week, after my iphone 5 screen shattered. 
    I was told I could just insert the sim and follow the directions.  Turns out, that the one I purchased does not work with the phone/carrier.  Where can I get a nano sim card that will work in my iphone 5c on verizon network?

    I did not get the ATT or T-mobile phone. I boutght the SIM-Free phone,  which says it requires a GSM Compatible SIM.  Does this mean I cannot use any verizon sim in the phone? Or any unlock code?
    You bought the wrong model of iPhone. Return it and buy the model specifically for use with Verizon.

  • IPhone 4S fell on some water, was working but now won't work. I got a replacement coming. Can I use the old Sim card in the new phone if it wasn't damaged? Will I get my pictures and contacts and messages back if it wasn't damaged?

    My iPhone 4S accidentally fell into a very shallow bit of water. The phone was wet, but worked afterwards for a short bit. Now it's not working, so I called and got a replacement phone coming. Same exact phone. Can I use the old Sim card in the new phone without harming anything? I don't know if the sim card got messed up or not, but I had a lot of pictures and messages and my contacts on my phone, and I assume these were on the sim card or am I wrong? I just wan to know if I can use the old sim card if it's still working in the new phone that is coming, as long as there was no damage to it? Thanks

    I think I had it on the iCloud, I just changed computers and had part of my old computer backed up, where are the default iTunes info saved like the pictures and I know my contacts were backed up cuz I kept getting updated stuff that I wasn't sure about, but it was contacts where some belonged to my wife's contacts....but anyway, if the cloud backed up contacts, it should have grabbed pictures too? Like I asked before, if they were backed up to the computer, is there a default iTunes folder they are saved to? I had a crap load of pictures on there that I usually could really access if I was connected to wi-fi. I turned off my data stuff as I only have 4GB and between me and my 2 kids, we seemed to use up a lot of it. My son would play music from Pandora during work, and use up all our data til I limited him to only 3GB, my daughter and I barely used 1GB. Anyway, thanks to everybody that is answering. I thought I might have done good finding the dang sim card, but pointless I guess.
    Ralph - F.Y.I. I would be happy to back up the iPhone if I could turn it on LOL......I am pretty positive I did, but what about Text messages? ANY of those saved too or not? Sorry guys, I don't know a **** of a lot about cell phones, but I do know about memory cards, but not sim cards that act like memory cards or look like them anyway. What is the purpose of a sim card if I may ask a stupid question since they don't hold any data from my phone stuff. I just hope my stuff comes back on the new replacement phone once I get it up and running. Again, thanks to everybody for the edumucation.

  • How to remove nano sim card from micro sim slot of Z3

    I mistakenly put nano sim card in my new bb Z3 im unable to remove it plz help me out in this issue

    You will have to be very careful. You may be able to use an exacto knife to remove the nano sim. However, it is highly likely you will, if you haven't already, damage the sim card reader. You may have to disassemble the device and even then sometimes it's not possible to remove it without damaging the sim card reader.

  • Can you use an android sim card in an apple iphone?

    can you use an android sim card in an apple iphone?

    If it is the nano SIM card size then you can use the same SIM card in either the iPhone or Android phone which supports the nano SIM card.

  • Nano sim card???, whats the difference???

    what's the diffence between the nano sim card and the micro sim card???

    The product you are suggesting has a good chance of NOT working:
    http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/buying-advice/mobile-phone/3380824/apple-iphone-5-nan o-sim-what-you-need-know/
    But the difference in thickness, even just 0.09mm, may cause problems when a cut-down micro-SIM is inserted into an aperture designed for a nano-SIM.
    http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/12/iphone-5-confirmed-to-use-nano-sim-current-si ms-not-compatible/
    also makes clear that there's no going back, so you'll have to chuck your earlier micro-SIM card if you've got one.

  • Nano Sim card from 5S will work in 6

    If you buy unlocked iPhone directly from Apple, it will come with T-Mobile sim card. Apple cannot call it sim-free as yet but it is actually sim free, when you remove T-Mobile sim car before turning the phone on. Once the T-Movile sim card is removed it's sim free unlocked iPhone. This has been confirmed by Apple on 10/2/2014.

    The iPhone 4s uses a Micro SIM and the iPhone 6 uses a Nano SIM.  The Nano SIM is smaller and thinner, so you should get a new SIM, but some customers have been able to trim their Micro SIM down and gotten it to work in the newer iPhones.  It is a snug fit since it is also thicker, so I would suggest getting a new SIM if you can.

  • IPad Air (wifi + cellular) WITHOUT nano sim card

    Just recently bought an iPad Air (64 GB, wifi + cellular; A1475) on eBay, brand new, except that the seller removed the Verizon nano sim card.  My questions:
    What possible reason(s) would the seller have for only removing/keeping the nano sim card from the iPad?
    I assume I won't have any problems getting a new/replacement nano sim card from Verizon when/if I sign up for service with them, correct?
    From what I've briefly researched online, it seems as if even though the iPad Air is supposedly specifically for use with Verizon, I can actually obtain/use nano sim cards and service from other cellular providers (AT&T, T-Mobile, Spring), correct?  (See also here.)
    FYI:  The iPad Air truly was/is brand new.  Never activated, never used (absolutely spotless).
    Thanks in advance for any information/advice!

    AFAIK, the iPads are not carrier-locked, so IFF you need to have carrier-based Internet connectivity and are willing to pony up the cost, you should be able to get the SIM from the carrier giving you the best deal and live happily ever after.
    That being said, I have a Wi-Fi+Cell iPad 4 purchased directly from Apple which has never felt a SIM card in its innards. Bought it instead of the Wi-Fi-only model cause I wanted the full GPS capability. And between the office (BIG 1 Gbps pipe to the Internet on our LAN) or at home (much more modest ADSL wireless router), been quite happy ignoring the No SIM onscreen warning. When not at home or the office and iPad use becomes indispensable, I simply tether it to my iPhone 5's Personal Hotspot and its 4G pipe to the Internet. Will NOT pay twice for the same shît.

  • I'm interested in iPhone 5s Unlocked and contract-free T-Mobile. It will work in Russia, with Russian nano-SIM card GSM?

    I'm interested in iPhone 5s Unlocked and contract-free T-Mobile. It will work in Russia, with Russian nano-SIM card GSM?

    Depends on what you mean by "fully operational". As i"ve stated, the phone most likely will not support LTE where you live, & unless you're using a supported iPhone carrier, you'll have to fiddle with the APN settings.
    But, an unlocked GSM iPhone will work with any GSM carrier.
