  • How to unlock my iPhone that I bought from the USA

    I bought a second hand phone in the US but I can't use it in my country Malaysia. The network here is GSM. Can someone please help me?

    If the iPhone is Locked to a US Wireless carrier, the only one who can unlock it is THAT carrier.  And AT&T in the US, for example, will Never unlock their iphones for any reason.  Sorry.
    Hope this helps

    First you'd have to establish service with Verizon. Once a paying customer in good standing, you can then request the GSM portion be unlocked. Obviously, you can't do any of that stuff while you're out of the US. They will not unlock the CDMA side.

  • I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it.  How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store?  when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?

    I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it.  How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store?  when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?  I have authorized my computer but none of them are in my music now.

    You buy one and only one download.
    It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
    Certainly you did not update your ipod without making sure that you had transferred anything purchased on the ipod to your computer and included it in your regular backup copy of your computer.

    No. All US iPhones are locked to AT&T or Verizon. With no way to officially unlock it. Send it back to your brother or sell it on ebay and by one locally. And from AT&T:

    how do i unlock a orig. iphone thats been disable due to, to many incorrect passcodes being enter and says connect to itunes.

    First try holding down the lock and home button for 15 seconds while your phone is plugged into a power source.  If that doesn't work then plug it into your computer.

  • How do I unlock an iPhone that is linked to an apple ID that I do not know?

    Bought an iPhone that is linked to an apple ID which the person does not know how to deactivate the account.  How can I get it to work for me?

    If the seller is the one who set the lock, send them this link and tell them to follow its instructions.
    If the seller is the device's original owner, they can ask Apple to remove the lock.
    If neither of these applies, the device is useless to you. Ask the seller for a refund.

  • How can i download an app that i bought from the app store but is no longer avalaible?

    hi, i recently changed my iphon from 4 to 5 and when i try to re-install the apps i found that tubebox is no longer available on the app store. how can i get the app now?

    First, make sure that sync automatically is disabled: iTunes>Preferences>Devices. Then connect your iPad, do not sync, right-click in the left device pane: Transfer Purchases.
    That should put it in your app library, & if a universal app, just sync it to your phone.

    thanks,

    Installing iTunes does not cause content to magically appear on the computer.
    Your media is only where you put it.
    iOS devices are not backup devices.
    Copy the media from the old computer to the new computer.
