  • I upgraded my iPhone 4 software to iOS and i now get a message reading "SIM card not supported"

    I upgraded my iPhone 4 software to the latest iOS version and now cannot get network coverage. I only receive a message that reads "The SIM Card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported".
    anyone with ideas for a possible solution?

    You have a phone that is locked to a specific carrier. If it worked with your carrier before the update that means that the phone was hacked or jailbroken. Updating it "undid" the jailbreak and left the phone locked to its original carrier. There is no way to resolve this, as there is no jailbreak for iOS 7 and no way to go back to the previous version of iOS.

  • What does the message,"macintosh platform does not support live script" mean?

    What does the message," Macintosh platform does not support livescript" mean?

    From what I found LiveScript is the precursor of JavaScript, if this means anything in your context. Do you have JavaScript enabled? You might see this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/message/6447836#6447836.

  • Have FF 15.0. When I open FF I always get following message: Norton Cofidential does not support FF 1.5, as if I have 1.5. What's up?

    I have FF 15.0. When I open FF I always get following message: Norton Confidential does not support FF 1.5, as if I have 1.5. How do I fix this. Do I not have a secure site?

    It is most likely because Firefox 15 is in beta, so norton hasn't added full support for it yet. I'd except them to update their software in the next 3 weeks (Firefox 15 gets released in about a week and a half).

  • I am trying to download pictures from my canon rebel  eos to my Ipad but i get the message "this device is not supported" what can I do ?

    I just bought an Apple Lighting to USB Camera Adapter. When I got home to and connected it to my Canon Rebel EOS Digital Camera. I received the error message "This device is not supported" I was wondering if there is any software or drivers I need to download?
    Thanks
    Don

    I use Canon Cameras and have no problems downloading photos from the camera to the Lightning to USB Camera Adapter. My questions and suggestions might be basic but just to make sure:
    1. This is an iPad forum area. Are you using the lightning to USB camera adapter with an iPad? Your info in your original post says iPod. I'm not sure that the adapter works with an iPod.
    2. After you connect the adapter to your iPad and then use a USB cable to connect the adapter to the camera did you turn on the camera?
    3. If you did turn on the camera and still did not get the import of photos to start try a reset your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. This will not cause any data loss.

  • When trying to play videos I get the message "requested URL is not supported on this network" how do I fix this?

    I receive the error "requested URL is not supported on this network" when trying to play videos on my iPhone. Can you please advise how to fix this problem?

    Hi,
    You will need to re-instal iCal as an optional install from your OSX installer DVDs. Then run the Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update.

  • Sim card not supported after unlock iphone 5c

    iphone 5c, 12.7 GB, version 8.1.1, after unlocking when i connect it to itunes w/ other sim, sim card not supported error registered,. i check it to IMEI and its unlock, but why icant use it? I try to restore to itunes and erase my iphone nothing works, what can i do?

    How was the phone unlocked?  Was it unlocked by your previous carrier?  The only way to unlock your phone is to have your previous carrier unlock it for you.
    If you phone was unlocked in any other way, this constitutes hacking or jailbreaking and your phone will not work with another sim card.
    Get the phone unlocked properly by your carrier and there is no reason why it should not work.

  • When connecting an HDMI adapter I get the message This device is not supported by this ipad

    Howdy Gdad_Edw,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Take a look at the article linked below, it provides information and troubleshooting tips that can help you resolve the no video issue with your Apple Digital AV Adapter and your iPad.
    About Apple Digital AV Adapters for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
    Troubleshooting
    If you encounter an issue using the Apple Digital AV Adapter or VGA Adapter:
    Disconnect and reconnect the adapter from the iOS device and display.
    Connect directly to the TV, projector, or external display using a known-good VGA or HDMI cable.
    Remove any VGA or HDMI extension cables or converters.
    Note that accessories that convert a VGA or HDMI signal to other video formats (DVI, Composite, Component) are not supported.
    Ensure that you are using the latest version of iOS. Some Apple Digital AV Adapters require iOS 5.1 or later.
    Ciao,

  • My system is Mac OSX 10.5.8 and your info says it should support the download of Firefox, but when it loads, I get a message that it's not supported by my system.

    Mac OSX 10.5.8 is a PowerPC computer. Your info says it should support a Firefox browser & I REALLY want one since I always liked Firefox better than Safari, but I get the message saying that my system doesn't support Firefox.
    I'd be happy to purchase a disc in order to load the Firefox software. Thanks.

    Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (which you do NOT have; yours is a PPC Mac) '''''<u>and</u>''''' OSX 10.5 or higher
    *System Requirements: [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/4.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 4] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/5.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 5] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/6.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 6] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/7.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 7] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/8.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 8]
    The good news is that Firefox 3.6.24 still supports OSX 10.4 and Macs with the PPC Mac architecture. The bad news is that support for the Firefox 3.6.x series is likely to end in the first quarter of 2012.
    *System requirements: [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/3.6/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 3.6.x]

    *Also see --> http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac
    You can try the third-party product '''''TenFourFox''''' that supports PPC Macs. Firefox 8 version of '''''TenFourFox''''' is available. The product is based on Firefox released versions. All support is provided by the developer, not by this site:

  • HT1237 My MacBookPro9,2 gets error message: "This software is not supported on your system." Audio jack is ignored. What else can I do?

    MACBOOK Pro 13-inch Mid 2012
    2.9GHz Intel Core i7
    8GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Intel HD Graphics 40000 512 MB
    Mac OS X Lion 10..5 (11G63)
    Model Identifier:                    MacBookPro9,2
    Boot ROM Version:          MBP91.00D3.B08
    SMC Version (system):          2.2f44
    Passed Last Power on Self-Test
    The MacBook EFI Updater File that I downloaded from the Apple website for Support:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
      --> shows my Model McBookPro 9,2 as needing
    EFI Boot ROM version MBP91.00D3.B08 (EFI 2.9) (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1593)
    SMC version 2.2f44 (SMC 1.8) (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1633)
    I downloaded and tried to run both the files
    MacBookProEFIUpdate2.9.dmg 9/19/12
    AND
    MacBookProSMCUpdate.pkg
    as offered on this matrix, which instructs:
    "This article lists firmware updates that were released for Intel-based Macs. They update the firmware that originally shipped from the factory. If your computer does not appear on this list, an update from the factory firmware is not necessary.
    If you are unsure whether your computer needs a particular update, simply download and open the update installer. The installer will alert you if the firmware update is already installed or not needed."
    and instead of a message telling me of the proper update
    "This software is not supported on your system."
    So, why would the manual updater not tell me I already have the proper SMC and EFI updates?
    What is the reason I get the message that the software I downloaded from Apple Support is not supported on my system?
    Is this indicative of a larger problem with my MACBOOK PRO? 

    [email protected],
    why were you trying to reïnstall the Boot ROM and SMC versions that were already installed on your MacBook Pro?
    I agree that  a “not supported” message is certainly less clear than an “already installed” message would have been.
