How do you use an iPhone outside the United States?

I'm going on vacation with my family and I was wondering how can your iPhone 4S with Verizon Wireless to take pictures and listen to music without being charged for roaming if you'll be traveling outside the United States? I have heard that you can your iPhone if you turn on Airplane mode but I am not sure if this is true or do you have to turn off a certain thing on the iPhone?

Airplane mode turns off all radios.
The iPhone includes the ability to enable wi-fi and Bluetooth access with Airplane mode enabled so you can access the internet with your iPhone via an available wi-fi network and/or access a Bluetooth device such as speakers or a headset. Being able to place or receive and calls and the same for SMS/MMS and cellular data access is prevented with Airplane mode enabled.

  • Using Online Number Outside the United States

    I currently a Skype Online number and a good amount of Skype credit.
    The number is based in the United States.
    My wife and I will be spending considerable time outside the US. We'll be traveling extensively in Mexico and Canada.
    Is this going to be a problem using my US Online number?
    Even though most of our time will be outside the US, can I continue to use my US number?
    Thanks!

    Does it cost any money when you imessage outside the United States?

    It shouldn't if it is truely an iMessage and you are using wi-fi, such as your home LAN.
    There is a difference in cellular SMS text messages and iMessages. The other person must have an iOS device and you must both have an internet connection. The conversation will appear in blue.

  • Verizon Blocking Access to Mail Servers outside the United States

    I spent almost two hours with Verizon representatives yesterday after having spent 10 days in Canada without ever being able to access the pop.verizon.net email server.  Although the information does not seem to be well known throughout Verizon, several officials confirmed that as of September 14, Verizon has made the decision to block all IP addresses outside the United States trying to communicate with Verizon's email servers.  
    Parenthetically, Verizon Wireless was also unaware of this change in policy but was most interested to learn about it given the impact it would have.  It would also help explain why there were many customers who suddenly found their smartphones to be significantly less useful when traveling internationally.
    I asked repeatedly whether the Verizon community had been made aware of this change in policy and several individuals within Verizon confirmed that no such corporate communication was ever made, despite the fact that this change has a dramatic impact on those who travel outside the United States.  They conceded that this should have been done, but of course no one seems to know where the decision within the corporation was made about this policy and who might be "empowered" to actually consider the impact on the Verizon user community and communicate with it in a transparent manner.
    I find this behavior on Verizon's part to be appalling.  Even if security concerns drove this decision, I can't but help feel that it is Verizon's arrogance that led them to believe that this change in policy should not be communicated to the Verizon community.  
    I have made my view known to some individuals--would suggest that others do so as well--although I am skeptical that anyone within the Verizon heirarchy cares.  Hopefully I'm wrong.

    The response highlights the problems of dealing with Verizon.  It's totally non-responsive to the issue.
    In point of fact, I am not locked out of my individual account, nor do I have any difficulty in downloading emails from the pop.verizon.net email server when I am accessing it from a US-based IP address.  The problem is that IP addresses outside the US are being rejected.  Thus while traveling internationally and trying to access my account from a hotel, coffee shop, etc. the server is now programmed by Verizon not to respond.
    Thank you.

    We have asked them to clarify the message and they finally have, but not necessarily what you want to hear.
    "Additionally, we have implemented measures to prevent future unauthorized access attempts which may affect your ability to access your Verizon.net email from locations outside the U.S. If you experience difficulty reaching your Verizon.net email account, you can always access it online at mail.verizon.com or through the Verizon My FiOS app for mobile devices. For further information see the Verizon Webmail FAQs. "
    I think they are also still accepting whitelist requests for Foreign ISP's.

  • Obtaining repair or replacemen​t service outside the United States

    Hello,

    But i live in São Paulo (Brazil) and i don't know where are located the authorized manufacturer service centers to obtain repair.
    Can you help me someway?
    Can you indicate me somewhere i can repair my notebook at São Paulo/Brazil?
    Tks.

  • Why Would iTunes turn me off and not allow me to Purchase Content while outside the United States?

    I have been living outside of the USA for 7-months.  I have been purchasing and viewing content that is stored in my iCloud again without any issues.  Today, while attempting to purchase a movie I received an error message saying that I need to contact Support.  I chatted with a rather robotic Support Representative and after a 10 minute review of my account he stated 'all looks good on my end' then, he asked me to hold on for an additional few minutes and said that he could not tell me the reason why my account was 'frozen' but referred me to the iTunes terms and conditions.  I repeatidly asked what was wrong and he refused to answer me.  After a heated back and forth he referred me to Paragraph B in the terms and conditions and it states that content can only be used while in the USA or its possessions or territories.  I told the chat rep that I live in two countries and was curious how I would fix this situation.  The rep was mum and would not reply to me.
    Does anyone have any feedback?  I am unsure what the big deal is. I am paying for content and simply viewing it while traveling.  Why would Apple insist on such a requirement in this very global world we live in.

    They are part of the US store's terms (terms that you have agreed to) :
    The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance.
    (Other countries terms  will be similar)
    It's like that at the requirement of the content providers, they want control over where their content is available - each country therefore has to have its own store and you have to be in a country (and have a billing address in that country on your account) to use its store. That applies to both buying new content and redownloading past purchases.
    Have you not got a copy of all of your downloads on a backup ? There is no guarantee that any item will remain in the store for redownloading (you are only guaranteed one download of any item), a rights-holder could remove an item from the store at any time.
