Hey i got a iphone 4 online and it doesnt have a sim card slot what do i do ??

hey just wondering if my iphone is fake i brought it online and it has no simcard slot what do i do? could i send it in and get it looked at ??

You need to return the phone and get a refund because you won't be able to use it without a sim card slot.
Probably not a fake, because some US iPhones, depending on what comapny they were from and what model do not come with sim card slots, as they don't need them and if you are not planning on using the phone in the US, then you won't be able to use it without a sim card slot.
The seller really should have made potential buyers aware of this, so I would return the phone for a full refund and then go and buy another iPhone form a reputable source, such as directly from an Apple store or a local phone comapny.

I bought an iphone sprint carrier on ebay but i want to know if the phone is going to work for an international carrier movistar which is gsm due to the phone does have a sim card slot , what do i need to do ?

help me how can i get my phone to work in movistar which is my carrier in ecuador gsm . sprint iphones does have sim card slot but i'm not sure if it will work for gsm what do i need to do , how do i unlock it

IF the phone was unlocked by Sprint for international use, it will work on any compatible (non U.S.) GSM carrier.
If it was NOT unlocked before you acquired it, you will need to move to the US and establish service with Sprint, then wait the minimum amount of time specified by their policy before they will agree to unlock it for you.
If you are not a Sprint customer, you bought the wrong phone.

The CDMA iPhone 4 does not use a SIM at all. There is no SIM slot. It is a pure CDMA phone.

TS3274 Just got an ipad and can't open the SIM Card slot - is it meant to be spring loaded - as it comes with a little tool that you poke in the hole, but it will not pop out any help please?

Just got an ipad air, ordered from Apple online store, can't open the SIm card slot - comes with a special tool, but is it meant to be springloaded and just pop out? I think it is faulty.

Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears? If that doesn't work, try resetting the network settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings.
If that fails, you may possibly have damaged the SIM. Verizon will need to give you a new one.
Best of luck.

I backed up my iphone 3 in preparation for moving to iphone 4S and before i changed the sim card I discovered my notes had been wiped! It looks like this is quite common but can anyone tell me where the notes I backed up on itunes would be???

In the iPhone backup. Right click on the phone in iTunes and choose "Restore from Backup".

I want to use an old iphone as an itouch and don't have the sim card anymore and I just updated to the new software

I want to use an old iphone as an itouch and don't have the sim card anymore (cut it to fit into 4G) and I just updated to the new software.... How do I reload the phone with apps and music?

You'll need to get a SIM card. It can be an old one.

My IPhone doesn't seem to have a sims card tray. Please help

My IPhone doesn't seem to have a sims card tray. I would like to change the sims card but I can not find the sims card tray. I have looked on the right side and on top of my phone but its not there. I have a Iphone4 and Verizon as my carrier. How do I change my sims? Or can I change my sims card? Please help me I would greatly apperciate it.

The Verizon iPhone 4 is a CDMA phone and as such has no SIM. Ergo there's no way to change a SIM and no way to use the phone with another carrier, if that's what you wanted to do.
Regards.

Verizon will only unlock your phone for international use.
Just to avoid any possible confusion, a Verizon-model iPhone 4 is a CDMA-only iPhone and can't be unlocked at all. The only way to use that model with another carrier is if Verizon has international CDMA carrier partners for international roaming, available only a very few countries.
Only the Verizon-model iPhone 4S or later is or can be unlocked for true international use.

I have just upgraded my Ipad2 to the latest operating system and on restarting it is some foreign language and is asking for the sim card number when I don't have a sim card. What do I do?

i have to apologize up front for the cheeky response. but i just couldnt resist. if your ipad is speaking in tongues. i would call a priest and perform an exorcism on it first.

I am to purchase a second hand iphone 4. but the seller says it can't be used as a phone as it doesn't have a sim card slot. he says he is not aware if the phone is unlocked or not... should i buy this phone??

Depends
If you need a cellphone then No.
If he wants more than $1 then No.
I would suggest that you buy an iPod Touch from Apple.

I have lost my iPad and would like to block it from being reregistered. It is a wifi only and does not have a sim card. I did not sign up for any tracking software either. Can apple block the serial number?

No.
Apple can do nothing.
You cannot block it from being "registered".
If you did not set up find my ipad before it was lost, then there is nothing you can do but change your passwords.

Was updating to 5.0.1 on iphone 3gs and now it wont recongize sim card

I was updating at iphone 3gs (8gig) to 5.0.1 after it was turned off and it restarted. it no longer recongized the sim card. What can I do now?

It was not. I bought i a few months ago for my fatherinlaw and I have only put some apps on it before trying to updated the iOS to 5.0.1. It was working fine before but once it restarted from updating to 5.0.1 it is now in a base mode of asking what language, turn on location services and for it to go on wifi. but when I attach it by wire to itunes it says the sim card is not installed.

Bought 'Unlocked' iPhone 4s and it won't recognize sim card. Any help?

Had an iPhone 4 but screen broke so I sent it out for repair but it couldn't be fixed so ordered an unlocked white iphone 4s from a third party site called 'TradeAnythingUk'. I kept my sim card so I could put it in this phone it came through the post today and during setup it has told me this error message :
'The sim card in this iPhone does not appear to be supported, Onlly compatible sims from a supported carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insrt the sim that came with your iPhone or visit a supported carriers store to receive a replacement sim card'
I looked at a few forums and thought I'd try restoring the phone and re installing the software this hasn't changed anything
Is this a pure case of the phone not actually being unlocked or is there any more to this problem
I am with Orange network by the way and I am in the UK.

Apparently you didn't get an iPhone that was officially unlocked, but rather one that either wasn't unlocked at all (and you were flat lied to) or that was hacked to unlock it. Restoring would have removed any such hack in most cases.
Only the carrier to whom the iPhone is locked can authorize an unlock, and most carriers will not unless you have service with them. I'd suggest you go back to the unauthorized reseller from whom you purchased this iPhone for redress, since they didn't sell you what they apparently claimed. It's quite possible, though, that you may have to chalk this up as a learning experience, swallow the loss, and buy another iPhone from an authorized source.
Just so you know, unless your old iPhone was in pieces or jailbroken, Apple would have replaced it for £119 if you had taken it to an Apple Store.
Regards.
