ONLY the carrier to which it is locked can unlock it.
Contact that carrier and ask if they offer this service and if you qualify.

how to check an iPhone is factory unlock or not

There is no way to check. This question gets asked all the time, and the simple fact is if you purchased your phone from an official source that sells officially unlocked iPhones, your phone is officially unlocked. If you didn't purchase from an official source, there is a good chance it was hacked.

How to know if my iPhone 5 is factory unlocked, How to know if my iPhone 5 is factory unlocked

I just bougth a factory unlocked iPhone 5, I'm going to use it in South America, I bought it here in USA but just for the activation I borrowed a friends SIM card, it was from Verizon, so I activated the iPhone and returned the SIM card, the. In general I see that in carrier says " Verizon 13.0" that means its locked just for Verizon or what happened?? Please help! Cause I know that when its unlocked it just says "carrier 13.0 "

If you want to buy unlocked iPhone 5 in US its model would be A1428. There may not be any choice due to operation of LTE networks
Unlocked iPhone bought from Apple Store would be Model A1429. Check yours at the back of phone.
Also see http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ and the country you want to use it in. Check with your prospective oprator.

How can I reset my MacBook Air to factory settings that will delete all 3rd party apps and wont delete my data and iLife apps?, How can I reset my MacBook Air to factory settings that will delete all 3rd party apps and wont delete my data and iLife apps?

I gave my MacBook Air to a person to use for a while, and now I got it back. I want it to be good as new before I start using it properly. Its okay if I lose data but I dont want to lose the Apps that were onboard. I want to start all over again.
Thanks

Assuming you don't have a Time Machine backup before you lent your MacBook out, then you've a few choices.
If you want to set it back to the day you got it, then if it's Snow Leopard, use the micro USB stick that came with your Mac and after boot from it ( hold the Option key on startup) select the USB stick and when booted from it, go to Disk Utility and reformat the HD then install SL. when it's done and started in 10.6, select the install Applications from the USB stick, then your back with iLife apps etc.
If Lion, restart from the Recovery Partition as per the instructions above except you don't need anything plugged into the Mac, select Recovery and again DU erase and install Lion. once Lion is installed the iLife apps will be available to download from the App store as your MacBook will be recognised as coming with these apps.
WARNING, both these methods remove ALL user data

Did you buy it unlocked at full, non-subsidised price? If not, then it's not unlocked.

Try another sim other than the one from your carrier
The best test is where did you buy the iPhone
The ONLY source of genuinely unlocked iPhones is direct from Apple
Unless it came from an Apple Retail Store or their online store
it is most likely locked to a carrier

No. I've given you your answer. Buy from an un-official source, and you take your chances. And yes, if your phone was hacked to unlock it(common from un-official sources), it will be locked back to the carrier it was originally locked to if you update software or restore the phone.

Your carrier may be able to tell you, otherwise just try a SIM from another carrier.

If you are in the UK:
Please upgrade your plan to Web n Walk plus. One of our users on T-Mobile UK had this to report back to us:
T-Mobile UK are in fact port blocking to ensure fair usage on their base Web and Walk Plan. I have upgraded to Web and Walk Plus and as a result the port blocks are lifted and I get a higher data allowance!
We were also recently contacted by T-Mobile UK, who stated the following:
Any smart phone (iphone, android etc) that is bought directly from T-Mobile should be automatically provisioned with Web n Walk plus, if customers have bought a handset sim free then they will need to call customer services and get this added. It is free of charge for most price plans (including new plans) but some older plans will generate a charge of £5pm for this.
