Do Apple stores in Madrid sell iPad 3G SIMS?
Do either of the Apple stores in Madrid, Spain, sell and activate iPad 3G prepaid accounts on behalf of local mobile providers?
If not, what is the recommended approach for a trouble-free purchase and activation? I've read accounts in this discussion group of difficulties with activations.
I will be visiting the country for 3 weeks of cycle touring beginning this Sunday so I'm looking for a prepaid plan.
Thanks.
Patrick.
I acquired my SIM from the Apple store at Oakridge Mall in Vancouver when I bought my iPad last year. I was able to choose from 3 Canadian teleco's and decided to go with Rogers. I gather the Apple stores in Spain do not sell SIMs.
Any suggestions regarding which Spanish telecom provider to choose for my iPad 3G SIM would be appreciated. I plan to be cycling for three weeks in the countryside north from Madrid to Bilbao and possibly along the Ebro river. So I am looking for coverage in rural areas. My partner will be shopping for a prepaid plan for her iPhone.
I would also appreciate knowing of a telecom outlet in central Madrid where staff are helpful and reasonably procifient in English. My Spanish is rudimentary at best unfortunately.
Thanks.
Patrick.

They should replace the whole device, not just the screen. If they have it in stock, you will walk out with in in minutes. If you are not under warranty there is a charge.

i bought an factory unlocked iphone 3gs at the apple store today and just ordered a sim card activation kit and a 30 dollar minute card for it. the sim will work in the unlocked iphone am i correct? and i can use messaging on it right?
If T-Mobile in the US, while your phone will activate/work, you won't have FaceTime, MMS or 3G. T-Mobile, in the US, is not a supported iPhone carrier, thus all features of the iPhone may not be available. T-Mobile's 3G network, in the US, is not compatible with the iPhone.

Preordered iPhone 5 for Verizon (through Apple Store) will it come with a SIM card for LTE or do I need one from Verizon? (Noticed their preorder site says it is included)
Sorry, didnt clarify, Verizon's site said it is included but Apple's (where I preordered) did not mention it.

Can anyone confirm Apple Stores are getting in iPads daily?
A rep at the Apple store said they were getting in iPads almost every morning and that they do the 1st hour (8:00-9:00 a.m.) of just iPad sales. Can anyone confirm that this is true? It doesn't really matter where, but if it's necessary, Austin, Texas. Thanks for any input....
I know that both the Raleigh and Durham stores have had some most mornings - sold out within an hour or less. They also told me that they do not know what they will have until they show up at the back door.
The staff have been coming out just before doors open each morning to greet the line of hopefuls and hand out tickets for what they have to sell so the rest of the line need not wait around only to be out of luck.
I'm nowhere near desperate enough for one to get up hours before work just to stand in line on the chance they'll have some, so I'll just wait. -
I'm getting my "new" iPad on Friday. I'm replacing my "original" iPad (1). Since I preordered and will be receiving my iPad directly I will not be picking it up from the Apple store, so no set up from them. Can someone walk me thru what I must to do get my new iPad up and running. I want to transfer my info, apps, etc. to my new iPad but I also want to pass on my old one to a family member who uses the same computer. How shall I proceed? Thanks!
If you want everything that's on your current iPad onto the new one, then you can first copy all purchases off the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. You can then backup your current iPad and restore the new iPad from that backup (a list of what is included in a backup is in this article - it excludes music, videos, synced photos). As the backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their settings and content, for the restore to work completely you'll need all the relevant apps in your computer's iTunes library - otherwise the restore won't be able to install the apps and therefore their content (which is one reason to do File > Transfer Purchases, if that doesn't copy them over then you can re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519).
The restore won't copy passwords onto a different device, so you will need to re-enter your email, router, and any website passwords onto the new iPad.
Depending on what you want to remain on the iPad, you can then either leave it as it is or log out of your account on it (tap on it in Settings > Store) and then wipe it via Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings. -
Why I cannot use search function in my apple store? I use Ipad 3 and it is the latest software
Why I cannot use search function in the apple store on my ipad?
Nobody here could possibly answer your question as presented. Have you tried any troubleshooting steps at all?
Quit the app store completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If that doesn't work ... A few more details from you might help you get your problem resolved. -
Is it true that the Apple store will unlock any IPAD without checking?
I left my IPAD on a plane. It was password locked. It was never returned.
I bought a replacement, but was still worried about my data. Used find my IPAD, but it has never shown up.
When buying my replacement the guy at the Apple store told me that if someone brings in a locked IPAD, they will unlock it for them with no questions asked. Is this true? Seems like they could at least see if serial number is registered to the person that brought it in before unlocking.Apple does not get involved in theft situations. Whether they will unlock an iPad I don't know, but my guess would be no. A locked iPad needs to restored in iTunes and it seems unlikely Apple would do that for someone. But, we're just users here, so call Apple and ask them.

How do I change the appleID for the apple store icon on my IPad?
I have recently retired and my IPad that I used with my school email is now my private IPad. I no longer have my school email, and had to change my primary email address to my private one. I have changed my AppleID to use my private email, was able to change my FaceTime to the private email, but cannot find the setting to change the apple store setting to the private email on my IPad. To top it off, I still have a credit amount on my Apple store account I don't want to lose. I had assumed when I changed my Primary appleID it would change it for the app store. It didn't. Help!
If you have a credit for the app store, it will be associated with the old email address unless you merely changed the email address associated with the Apple ID. If you created a new Apple ID that's a different story. It can get quite confusing at times. But first things first.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. You can sign out of the old ID there and sign in with the new one.
You can do the same thing in the App Store and in iTunes when in the featured or main page of each app. Your ID is located in the bottom left corner of the screen. You can tap the ID that is showing and sign out of the old ID there and sign in with the new one. -
Does the Canada Apple store sell the unlocked iPhone 5 model A1429CDMA?
Canada sells unlocked iPhone 5's. Why not check this out for yourself by going to the Apple store website and then changing the country to Canada?
You can't purchase it from the store online though - you'll have to travel directly to Canada yourself to buy it because there is no international shipping available. -
If let the guy from the apple store set my iPad on thei computer in the store
Will the iPad still synch with my home computerYou will be ok if you do this. When you get home with the iPad - do not sync until you transfer purchases if you download apps and music on the iPad before you get home and sync to your computer.
Launch iTunes on your computer and go the menu at the top - iTunes>Preferences>Devices> and check the box at the bottom of the window that says Prevent iPods, iPhones, iPads from syncing automatically. Then quit iTunes.
Connect your iPad to your computer and launch iTunes if it does not open on its own. Right click on the iPad name or music that you downloaded into your iTunes library. While you are still in iTunes you can then select the music, photos or whatever other content that you want to put on the iPad in all of the different tabs in the iTunes window at the top. Make sure you check the appropriate headings in the various tabs - such as "Sync Music" - then select the playlists or albums that you want to sync and then you can sync. -
