From London to Australia...

Hey All
Complete technophobe here.
Okay so am relocating to Australia in a few weeks. I have an iPhone 4s and will be taking it with me. I have backed up all my contacts on the Cloud, and have now bought iTunes Match also.
I have been told to unlock I need to:
Contact O2 to unlock my phone 
Back up my entire phone onto my laptop 
Wipe the phone completely 
Put in my new sim 
Reinstall everything from my laptop
So far I have unlocked it with O2, and have backed up contacts onto Cloud and my music onto iTunes Match. My problem comes now...I will be leaving my laptop in the UK when I move, and won't get my new Australian sim until I get to Oz - therefore I won't have my laptop to reinstall everything. What do I do?
Really not great with this stuff, so nice and simple answers would be great and HUGELY appreciated as starting to panic a bit that I may lose all my apps and tracks...
Thanks
Kerry

You can use any different SIM to complete the unlock - it doesn't need to be the Australian SIM you plan to use. Just borrow a friends SIM (on another network) and use that to complete the unlock and re-setup your phone whilst in the UK. Once done take the SIM out and your phone will remain unlocked for when you go to Australia.

    Did you use the AirPort Utility to see if the Time Capsule configuration got borked?

    Sorry, but the warranty for the phone is only valid in the country where you bought the device, and you can't send it in, Apple does not ship internationally.
    Has the phone been officially unlocked? Only the carrier can unlock an iPhone.

    The warranty is NOT international. You must take it back to the country of origin if it needs repair. The E.U. is considered a single country for warranty purposes.

    You will need to go to a European Union country and take it to an Apple Store to get it fixed.

  • Send from Italy to Australia

    Good evening,
    I'm sorry for my english
    I would like to send an album with iphoto from Italy to Australia
    Is it Possible?
    How do?
    Grazie
    Corrado

    DO you mean you want to have Apple print a photo book and have it shipped to Australia?
    That will be difficult. when you order a book the billing address and shipping address must be in the same country. You would need to order the book from the Australian store, using an Australian AppleID, credit card,  and billing address.  If you have an address in Australia set the "Print Products Store" in iPhoto's Advanced preferences to Australia  and try.
    It would be easier to have the book shipped to Italy and forward it yourself. This way you can check the quality, before you send it onward.

    I have got an iphone4 from london as a gift but its nt working here in belgium bacause of some network problems!! could you please tell wat should i do ??

    You mean you hacked the phone in Belgium. I don't get it, you can purchase unlocked iPhones in Belgium but rather than do that you hack an iPhone from the UK(where unlocked iPhones are also available). Whatever...you're on your own. Good luck.

  • HT5622 I am trying to change my address details from UK to Australia.

    I am trying to change my address details from UK to Australia however, this is not working as iTunes is saying that an outstanding rental has not expired. There are no rentals.

    Thanks bassman33.3,
    I managed to speak to customer services at iTunes and they confirmed that it was not an outstanding balance, it was actually a rental from two weeks ago. When you rent a movie, it actually takes 30 days to clear from your iTunes account even though you cannot watch or see the movie anymore. So you can change countries and payment details after the rental period (30 days) has expired which is a bit of a pain.
    Good luck with downloading that album.
