    Your iPhone is locked to the original carrier who sold it
    Only they can unlock it 
    The sim the iPhone refers to is the one the iPhone is locked to
    You will have to contact them

    If your iPhone is truly unlocked - purchased as unlocked through Apple
    or through wireless provider that sells unlocked iPhones or unlocked
    by a wireless provider, then the update should not mess up your iPhone.
    If your iPhone was jailbroken or hacked to change wireless providers,
    then the update will relock it to the original wireless provider if you are lucky
    or turn it into a useless brick if unlucky.
    Back up first to protect against glitches or other problems.

  • My ipod touch has 1.1 gb left of space on it. when i try to install an app thats 314 mb it gets three quarters of the way through and says my ipod has no space left. when i go to the storage it also says it has no space left. whats going on?

    To download/install an app directly to the iPod you need available storage equal to about three times the file download size. Syncing the app to the iPod requires a lot less. Thus you either have to free up more storage or sync the app from your computer.

    Are you getting an error code?
    Try resetting the App Store.
    Reset       Learned from Old Toad
    If that doesn't work:
    - Sign out of the App Store (in the Store menu)
    - Quit the App Store
    - In Finder - Go>Go to folder...  (or Apple-shift-G)
    - Paste in the following "~/Library/Caches/ "
    - It will take you to a folder.  Delete com.apple.appstore
    - Launch the App Store.  Sign in and then reclick the Mountain Lion buy.  It won’t charge you again.

  • Certain songs have started stopping half way through and skipping to the next track, how do i fix?

    Recently I have found the certain songs, and its always the same ones, have started stopping half way thru and skipping to the next track.  Even if I manually try and forward thru to the end of the track they wont go beyond half way. Does anyone else have this issue and are there any fixes?

    I have figured out a fix.  I have deleted the songs in question and then gone to the 'purchased' section in iTunes Store and re-downloaded the tracks and they work fine.  Haven't found a problem on a non-downloaded track yet so not sure what fix would be there.

  • HT5622 I just got a new iPhone, how do I set up my iMessage? Keeps telling me waiting for activation, then it comes up and says an error has occurred.

    HHow do I activate iMessage? Keeps saying waiting for activation, and then I do my Apple ID and password then it says an error has occurred.?

    Is your phone activated with your carrier?  Can you make a phone call and send a text message?
    Which country/ carrier?

  • HT1766 i have a iphone 3gs that needs to be backed up and I have a new computer

    I  have a iphone 3gs that needs to be backed up and I have a new computer

    You can backup only your settings, messages, recent calls, apps and Camera Roll in your new iTunes.
    Your photo albums and music has to be on your computer to sync them back to your iPhone.

    Could be a defective SIM.  Try a new one from your carrier.

    My iphone is requesting that I log into Itunes. When I do, it says, "an error has occurred". Am I doing something wrong or do I need to take it for service?

    Hi jan2710,
    If you are having an issue with completing a restore for your iPhone 5, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

Then it says "An error has occured loading this content."  I just bought this apple tv and gone over and over pluging it in and setting it up thinking I did something wrong but I don't think it's that. Like I said I can see all my shows and movies but just can't get anything to play. Please help me. Any suggests?

    Disable anti virus software if installed
    Make sure the firewall is turned off in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall
    Make sure Gatekeeper is enabled
    Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy then select the General tab.
    Make sure either Mac App Store or Mac App Store and identified developers is selected.
    If that area is grayed out, click the padlock icon to proceed.

  • Cannot update and download ios 5 to iphone 4 or ipad...everytime i try i get half way through a 2 hour download for it to say "network connection timed out" what do i do to download

    cannot update and download ios 5 to iphone 4 or ipad...everytime i try i get half way through a 2 hour download for it to say "network connection timed out" what do i do to download

    When you get anything that says your network connection timed out it either means you lost internet connection or there is something blocking the connection between the computer and the servers that it is trying to connect to.
    If you have a solid internet connection and can browse to websites fine it's either an anti-virus program or a firewall on the computer OR a firewall in the router's settings that you use to connect to the internet.
    Reconfigure any security software to allow Apple's servers to pass.
    Useful information for configuring your security software:
    IMPORTANT: iTunes must be allowed to contact Apple using the following ports and servers:
              ▪          port 80
              ▪          port 443
              ▪          phobos.apple.com, deimos3.apple.com, albert.apple.com, gs.apple.com, itunes.apple.com, ax.itunes.apple.com, ax.init.itunes.apple.com, ax.phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net
    iTunes uses well known ports and these ports may need to be opened for iTunes: 80, 443, 3689, 5297, 5298, 5353, 8000-8999, and 42000-42999.
    iTunes also contacts VeriSign servers during an iPhone restore and activation:
              ▪          evintl-ocsp.verisign.com
              ▪          evsecure-ocsp.verisign.com
    For more information see Update and restore alert messages on iPhone and iPod touch
    Temporarily disable or uninstall your security software
    If the current available version of your security software is incompatible with iTunes, you can disable the security software and test if it is the source of the issue. It might also be necessary to temporarily uninstall security software after making sure you can reinstall it and note any required licenses. A temporary deinstallation might be required because parts of some security software remain active in the background though they appear to be deactivated.
    To reduce any security risks that security software is designed to prevent, consider making sure all files needed to reinstall it are available and disconnect network connections before uninstalling security software. Should this not be possible, such as if a download without active security software is required, that required step should be the only process completed without security software. For assistance in checking your configuration, disabling, or uninstalling your security software, please contact the manufacturer.
    Once disabled or uninstalled, perform only the steps required to verify your issue has been resolved. Complete whatever update, restore, syncing, back up, activation, or other task you were troubleshooting. Once that task is complete, install and configure compatible security software to ensure your PC is protected.
    If it isn't a program or software on the computer contact your Internet Service Provider and/or Router Company to configure or disable the firewall in the router settings.
    To isolate the issue to this you can also try disconnecting the router and plugging your computer directly in to the modem but this does not help for troubleshooting time-out issues directly on any apple mobile devices only if you are syncing or going through iTunes on the computer.

    I'm having problems with iPhoto and the facebook set-up.  Every time I attempt to do so it says an error has occured and try again later.  I have not seen a solution posted.  Therefore, how does one contact Apple to solve the problem?  I'm new to the world of iMac but I find it a bit frustrating trying to solve basic issues/problems:(

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa
