How can I activate my unlocked iPhone through iTunes without a SIM card?

I have a new iPhone 4 that I bought unlocked. It's intended use is not as a phone, but more of an iPod touch. I want to activate it, but iTunes tells me I need a sim. Is there a way I can activate the phone for use with iTunes w/o obtaining a sim?

There is no way to do this with a stock Apple firmware. I am in the same boat. I wanted to use my old iPhone strictly for development, as I am upgrading to the new iPhone. Unfortunately, I got bitten by the SIM card problem and my phone old phone won't even recognize a SIM card anymore. In my opinion, requiring a SIM just to use apps on the phone needs to go away. Good luck with yours.

How can I sync a new Iphone 4s with an old 10.4.11 OS mac that can't update to the new version of itunes?

I have a Mac OS 10.4.11 that can't update to the newest version of Itunes. It does not recognize my new Iphone 4s. Is there other any way I can sync my phone? Apple support recommended that I update my Itunes from 9.2 to the new version but it won't install.

You cannot use an iPhone 4S with iTunes 9; you must have iTunes 10.5 or later, and that will indeed not run on Mac OS X 10.4. You'll need to upgrade your computer's OS to at least Mac OS X 10.5.8.
If, as Allan requested, you tell us your specific model of Mac, we can tell you what options you would have as regards compatible OS X versions.

Can I use my new iphone 5 with the old iHome iD9SVC Speaker System if I get an apadter? or should i just buy new speaker system made specifically for the iphone5

Look iTunes>Preferences>Devices...is a backup listed for your iPhone 5 dated BEFORE you restored your iPhone 4 backup to your iPhone 5? If not, your data is gone. If there is a backup, on your iPhone 5: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You should now be able to restore that backup, if it exists, to your iPhone 5.

How do I get my new iphone restored with my old backup? my old iphone had ios5 and the replacement phone i got has ios4 and it wont let me backup my phone because it doesnt have ios4... i cant get ios5 without restoring my iphone and backing it uo

Basically, i need all my old stuff from my iphone 4 with ios5 onto my new iphone 4. The new phone i received only had ios4. I went to get all my contacts and backup from my old phone onto my new phone and it wont let me because my new phone is only ios4 and my backup from my old phone was in ios5. I cant get ios5 on my phone without creating a new backup of my new phone, which has nothing on it. If i restore it as a new phone and backup virtually nothing from my new phone, will that get rid of all my old backup stuff from my old iphone?

Bottom line is you CANNOT restore to a phone from a backup that has a more recent iOS which is what you're trying to do. Just can't be done.

Can't activate applecare-replaced iphone 4 with previously working SIM

Hi,
I had an iphone 4, purchased from apple online store, not locked to a carrier. It worked perfectly with a local carrier's SIM (Manx Telecom) for nearly 12 months, then developed a hardware fault and applecare replaced it no hassle. The SIM stayed with me.
The replacement iphone doesn't like the Manx Telecom SIM - it's an "unsupported card" or "unsupported carrier". Manx Telecom sell unlocked iPhone 4s from their own retail store, and the SIM was obtained from them. Applecare support think the replacement iphone is unlocked, and I've done an OS restore (it asked for a WEP key when I restored it, I think it's iOS5) but still itunes and the iphone say that the SIM is unsupported.
I've escalated this to applecare, and they tell me that the replacement iPhone *is* unlocked. I don't know how carrier locking works, and I don't suspect the SIM, although I'll get that checked later today.
I'm worried that this will drag on, and being from a small country with an insignificant number of people, this might get dropped into a black hole of "we've never had one of these before, it's not really a problem"
Any ideas? All gratefully received. Reports of positive experiences would be welcome, as woudl ideas on next steps if I don't get any joy from the current incident.
Thanks for reading right to the end!
Pat

Applecare just fixed it. It hadn't been connected to wifi or itunes between last call and now, and they got it to accept the SIM, presumably over GSM. I am chuffed.

How can i get a new iphone if my screen crack

How can I get a new iphone if my screen crack?

Some Apple Stores can replace the screen of an iPhone 5 for $149. Otherwise, it will be $269 to replace the whole phone (unless you have AppleCare+, in which case it would be $79).

I can not activate my new iphone.

I can not activate my new iphone. iTunes gives me the message "The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported. Only compatible SIM cards from a supported carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insert the SIM card that came with your iPhone or visit a supported carrier store." Should i contact with the telephone company or is something else?

OK, call AppleCare in the UK...no one else can help you...be prepared to give them the phone's IMEI number & SN. They can verify whether your phone is carrier locked or not. Tell them you asked for an unlocked iPhone, that there was no sim in the phone or carrier name on the box or receipt. They can fix this remotely, by unlocking your phone, if it is in fact carrier locked & you were given this phone by mistake.

How do I activate a used iPhone 3 with no SIM card for use as an ipod touch?

How do I activate a used iPhone 3G with no SIM card for use like an iPod Touch? It was apparently on AT&T previously and I have another iPhone 3 that is active on AT&T if that is helpful. Thanks!

Copied from the link provided.
Follow these steps to use your iPhone without a wireless service plan:
Insert the SIM card from your new, activated iPhone or one that was previously used to activate the original iPhone.
Connect the iPhone to iTunes on a computer connected to the Internet.
Once iTunes activates the device, you're free to use the iPhone as if it were an iPod touch.

How can I create a new Care Plan with one or more care tasks

Hello,
I'm working on a Dutch website in the HealthVault Environment. I got difficulties in creating and updating a careplan with care tasks. Most likely it's due to lack of knowledge...
Following code works fine:
CarePlan plan = new CarePlan();
plan.Name = "test";
this.PersonInfo.SelectedRecord.NewItem(plan);
It creates a plan called [test]. But I don't know how to create a plan with one or more tasks in it: the tasks property is read only.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.health.itemtypes.careplan.tasks.aspx
Half a year ago I was able to add an example of a careplan, which was a feature of the dev tools, but for some reason that's not possible anymore.
https://developer.healthvault.com/DataTypes/Overview?TypeId=415c95e0-0533-4d9c-ac73-91dc5031186c
So my question is, how can I add a new care plan with a task like the example from the HealthVault dev tools:
<tasks>
<task>
<name>
<text>Run 100 miles</text>
</name>
<description>Run 100 miles in 6 months</description>

</task>
</tasks>
Any help is welcome
Wilfred

Hi Wilfred,
Have you tried this?
CarePlan plan = new CarePlan();
plan.Name = "test";
plan.Tasks.Add(someTask)
If you have a task list already, you would need to enumerate through it and add one by one...
foreach (var task in existingList)
plan.Tasks.Add(task)
