How do I know if my phone is factory unlocked? I want to update an iphone 4 (tmobile) to IOS 6.0.1 but I do not know if it was jailbroken or factory unlocked.
Just got it from someone... unsure if I can update and it will be ok or it will wipe the unlock. Under carrier it says tmobile? Not sure if that matters or means anything.
Where are you located? The previous owner could not tell you if it was officially unlocked? Another method is to see if you can find an app called Cydia. If you can, then the device is jailbroken.

I have had this i-phone almost a year and the last update crashed it. I back up to i-cloud but this is not a new phone. How do I get into set-up to restore from i-cloud?
From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

Look at the other thread you started. Running two active threads is confusing, not only to you but to those who are trying to help.

i can't update my iPhone 5c to the update os 8. I don't have a wi fi connection. Anyone know how I can update my phone to the new 8 and connect to wi fi or use my cellular data to update it plz and thank u
Hello, Chryslers6.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are wanting to update your iPhone 5c via the over-the-air option. You will need to be connected to power and a Wi-Fi source to use this option. You should be able to do this while being connected to any Wi-Fi network. You also have the option to update via iTunes. The article below will walk you through the process of updating your iPhone.
Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

i tried updating my iphone 4s to the ios 7 but it said error with the firmware now my phone is stuck in recovery mode and i have no idea how to fix it any suggestions??
Try Restoring it 3 times in a row and see if that works.
If not that error can indicate one of two things: Your iPhone was at one time jailbroken, had the iOS version rolled back, or ran an unauthorized beta and if none of those things are true it is a hardware error. -
Can anyone help? I updated my iPhone 4 with latest iOS 7 and now wi fi is greyed out, Bluetooth won't work and tbh am so angry! Phone now out of warranty so apple won't help without it costing me. Don't want to pay as its an apple problem not phone problem. It worked ok before. Tried everything, even clearing it down. Can't even back it up now unless I connect to a pc!
I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version. I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again. I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again. My blue tooth doesn't work either. I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this. When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue. My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!! I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue. Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it. Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple. -
i walked out of school and i was trying to get on my phone but it would not cut on.It was just a black screen.So when i got home and put it on the charger it keep vibrating but still a black screen. I called apple and everything i tried to restart still nothing HELP!!!HELP!!!!HELP!!!! i want my phone back
Did you ever figure out how to turn your phone on? Mine died today around noon for no reason. I'm so mad at it! I can't get it turned on, and I KNOW the battery is charged. Suggestions? I'm going to the genius bar (another trip completely out of my way) tomorrow morning. Suggestions?? Oh and please don't tell me to hold the "home" button and the "power" button together because I've been doing that all day. It doesn't work.

I tried to update my iPhone 4s to the ios 6 and it wouldn't download and my phone will not work now.
I tried to update my iPhone 4s to the ios 6 and it wouldn't download and my phone will not work. I started the download and it said that it had 6 hours remaining, so i just left it overnight. The next morning it was working fine, but the ios 6 didn't download. I looked at it later and it had the turning on screen with the loading bar under it. It stayed like that for a while and the bar didn't move. I needed to use my phone so I tried to make it go to the home screen, but nothing happened. I held down the lock and home button for a few seconds and everything went black. I tried to turn it back on and all it has done all day is stayed on the turning on screen. I tried plugging it into the wall, and nothing happened. I tried connecting it to iTunes, and nothing happened. I don't know what I need to do to get it to work.
OMG is working OMG OMG OMG Thanks alot dude!

How do I change the default apple id (email address) that is prompted on my iPhone? It prompts me with an id that I do not have and cannot access.
When do you get prompted for this ID? If you are asked for an AppleID
you do not know during Activation, contact the seller for assistance. Only
the person who set the Activation Lock can remove it. If the seller refuses
or does not know the requested AppleID and passcode, return the iPhone
for a full refund as it is useless. There is no work around for Activation Lock,
The person who set the lock needs to follow the actions in this link:
Prepare your device to sell or give away
You can check if Activation Lock is the problem here:
https://www.icloud.com/activationlock/
That link will only tell you if the iPhone is Activation Locked - it will not provide
any information about the source of the lock, nor can you get any information
from any source other than the original owner of the iPhone/person who set
the lock.

I have an iPhone sync'd to my iTunes. My boyfriend has his own iPhone with his iTunes account set up within it. We want to sync his iPhone to my iTunes account on the PC but we want to retain everything from both phones and the iTunes account. Is this possible? Help!

No. If you connect his phone to your iTunes account/computer, ALL iTunes content on his phone will be erased. By design, iPhone syncs or manually manages iTunes content with ONE computer at a time.
