Existing price-plan on new 'Open-SIM' iphone 4
(first time on this forum, so would appreciate your help)
I currently have a long-term contract with T-mobile, within the UK. I would like to purchase an 'unlocked' iphone 4 (the 16GB version) online from apple. Firstly, would my existing price plan on T-mobile work with the new iphone 4? And secondly, would there be any extra or hidden charges (due any differences in data roaming) if I do make this switch?
I understand that I will need to change to micro-SIM, but I believe that this can be done at any T-mobile store.
Thanks
I would think you should be asking T-mobile, as nobody here knows what plan you're on. If you buy an unlocked phone from Apple, there are certainly no hardware considerations to worry about beyond the ability to find a relevent microsim card.

I have a iPhone 4 micro sim and I plan on getting a iPhone 5 and would I be able to change my current micro sim to the new nano sim by my carrier ?
Call your carrier and ask if they will be furnishing nano sims. If not, get out the sandpaper, cutting tools & search Google for how to cut a micro sim down to nano sim size. You will also need to sand down the thickness. I suggest you get several sims to practice on.

I recently changed my lap top. My problem is the new lap top won't accept my apple I D it asked me to sing up for a new one which I did.
I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID? -
I am travelling to Paris for a week and then London for a week. Can I purchase a new Micro SIM card for my Verizon iPhone 5 in Paris and London and then use my phone with some sort of prepaid plan while in France and England?
I just spoke with Tech Support at Verizon and they said Yes, I can use my iPhone 5 in France and England. No unlocking is needed because the phones come pre-unlocked and ready to go. All I need to do is buy a new Micro SIM card in France/England and pick the pre-paid plan of my choosing and the phone will be good to go. Of course, I need to not lose my original Micro SIM card otherwise I would have quite the headache getting a new one once back in the US.

I was planning on buying a 32GB unlocked iPhone 5 with the T-Mobile Nano Sim. I was going to activate the Sim with T-Mobile's prepaid $30 unltd text/data with 100 minutes plan. I've read some stories online where people were only able to use the Sim with T-Mobile's post-paid plans. Will the Sim that comes included work with prepaid and post-paid plans?
Also, assuming that it does work with prepaid, what steps would I need to go through to activate the iPhone?
Assuming that it doesn't, would cutting down a prepaid Micro Sim from T-Mobile to Nano Sim size work normally?
Thank you in advance!Yes. The T-Mobile nanoSIM which came with the full price, unlocked iPhone 5 will work for a prepaid plan. However, neither Apple retail store employees nor the T-Mobile customer svc reps know this. It was quite an ordeal to activate. I had to order the prepaid activation kit online, wait for its arrival by snail mail, then use the activation code from the kit with the nanoSIM to activate the prepaid monthly plan $30/mon for 100 min+ unlim text + 5 GB 4G/LTE. I live in Pasadena, CA, and the 4G and LTE coverage here is extensive and reliable.
I tossed the SIM which came with the activation kit.
My local T-Mobile retail store wouldn't sell me a prepaid activation kit when I told them that I wanted the web-only $30/mon plan. The customer svc reps couldn't or wouldn't give me an activation code to use either. -
iPhone 5
16GB
iOS8.3
i'm a new user on iPhone. My sister gave me her old iPhone that she bought in UK, she she it here in the Philippines and i'm having problems because i can't use it. i already restored it to set it up new but i couldn't still activate it. It says, " Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached." and "The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information."
what should i do for me to be able to use it?
please help!
Thank you very much!It is locked to your sisters carrier.
She would have to ask her carrier if they unlock iPhones and if she qualifies for this service. -
I had already update mi new factory unlocked iPhone 4S to iOS 5.1.1 and I still having problems with "invalid sim". I'm from Argentina and here we don't have official service. PLEASE HELP ME, WHAT CAN I DO??? In Argentina is too expensive an iPhone 4S. Please I need help to continue believing in Apple. Thanks a lot. If anybody speak spanish better.
Was it purchased from an official Apple Store, not a reseller? Only Apple Stores sell official factory unlocked phones. The others sell hacked to unlock phones, and the unlocking is unstable.
Try these steps, as needed:
1. Reset phone - press both home and on/off buttons for at least 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
2. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
3. Replace SIM card (and reset network settings again)
4. Restore Phone in iTunes using a backup
5. Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup -
I have a water damaged iphone 5c. I was thinking about taking it to the Apple store and paying the 269 dollar service charge for them to attempt to fix it. My question is: If they can't fix it, will they replace my phone for that $269 dollars, or will I have to pay full retail price for a new phone?
They do not repair at all.
The replace.
The $269 is for a replacement. -

I have an iPhone 3gs and will be getting a new iPhone 4s. Once I have updated my existing 3gs with iCloud and backed up to my computer, will I be able to transfer my existing data to my new 4s using iCloud or will I need to do this from my iMac.
ThanksThe Apple genius at the Apple store told me this would work. It failed. Basically, updating your iPhone 3GS to iOS5 wipes your 3GS of its data so you can't really do this. Some data worked. Music, photos etc didn't work at all.
I suggest avoiding iCloud completely for a few weeks until Apple gets it working. -

HOW CANT I OPEN MY IPHONE WITH OUT ORIGINAL SIM CARD

I own an iPod Touch 4g. Now i'm planning to buy iPod Touch 5g. Is it possible for me to register the new iPod with existing Apple ID so that i can transfer the apps from my existing account to my new Ipod 5g?
There should definitely be no issue. You can register more than one Apple device with the same Apple ID and get the same apps on both devices without having to pay for the apps again.
Alternatively, if you want all your settings to say the same, do a backup of your old iPod Touch and then whe you receive the new iPod, restore the backup on it and it'll save you the trouble from having to redownload everything.
Cheers.
