HT1688 Request iphone 3G unlock through apple

How do I request an unlock for an older iPhone 3G through Apple? I bought from someone online and it needs to be unlocked but, ATT won't do it because I don't have an account with them.

You don't
Apple does not do this at all.
ONLY the carrier to which it is locked can unlock it.  no one else at all.  Unlocking is 100% the decision of the carrier.

  • I have a cracked iPhone 6 screen. I just bought the phone, but not AppleCare. If I get my iphone screen replaced through apple how much do I pay and would it void my one year warranty with Apple?

    To replace your phone's screen costs $109US and I don't see why having Apple replace the screen would void your warranty.

    Apple does not unlock phones. The carriers do. Once unlocked the phone can be used with any SIM that will fit in your phone. Contact your carrier.

  • Is there possibility of getting previuosly purchased(in november from app store) iphone 4 unlocked since Apple is selling unlocked iphones in USA

    Is it possible to get iphone 4 unlocked by apple in order to able to use in abroad which is purchased from app store(USA) in November, since app store is selling unlocked iphones in USA???

    No.
    The fact that Apple now sells unlocked phones independently of AT&T does not change AT&T's  'no unlock' policy.
    The phone you bought is locked to AT&T. So far, AT&T have not announced any change to their unlocking policy and Apple cannot unlock an AT&T iPhone without receiving authorization from AT&T.

  • Iphone 4 Unlocking by Apple?

    I receive a gift from for an iphone 4, it is locked to Fido. However, I am planning to switch to another carrier, can someone help provide option for me to unlock the iphone? Should I contact Apple for this request or I should ask Fido? Thank you!

    None of the Canadian carriers offer official unlocking. If you don't want to use the phone on Fido's network, return it and purchase an officially unlocked phone directly from Apple or purchase a locked phone from the carrier of your choice.

  • No music from iPhone and iPad through Apple TV

    Hello all,
    I have an uncommon problem. I recently set up my Apple TV 2nd gen on my new Samsung LED tv. Works fine for movies, tv shows from internet, but I cannot get to play the music stored on my iPad2 nor iPhone through AirPlay. When I pick a song from the iPod app and touch the AirPlay symbol, I do get the option to choose either the device itself or Apple TV, but when I tap Apple TV, no sound! When I do the same for videos, there's no problem, it'll play fine with sound. I already tried restarting my network modem, no result. Both iPad and iPhone are on the latest software, as well as Apple TV itself. Apple TV is connected to my tv through HDMI cable.
    Anybody any clue? Thanx!
    Joost

    Folks, should have done this first off course, having worked with Apple stuff for over 20 years: switching off and back on all devices. Working fine now. Close and delete this thread.
    Enjoy your day!

    No.  In the US, this is NOT the case and never has been.
    Untrue. You could buy unlocked iPhone 4S phones at any US Apple retail store at full price.
    Current Verizon phones, whether purchased with a contract or now are also unlocked for GSM carriers.

  • I want to buy an iphone 4s unlocked at apple store online and someone else at the hotel is going to receive the package for me, what should I do?

    I am from Brazil and I am going to USA in the end of the year. I know it takes 1-2 weeks to ship the iphone 4s, so I will buy it and send it to the hotel address . They will keep my package until I arrive.
    What do I have to do? Give an authorization or something like that?
    Thanks

    To buy from the Apple USA online store, you will need a credit card with a USA billing address - you cannot use a foreign credit card with a foreign billing address associated with it.  While you can ship to a hotel address in care of your name, you must make sure the Hotel will accept the package for you and secure it for you.  You may have other problems with that too.  if Apple cannot verify the address or anything about it makes them suspect a forwarding agent,they may refuse to ship to that address.

  • Can i get a sprint iphone 5 unlocked by apple

    I have an Iphone 5 its locked to Sprint and I now like outside of US and therefore need to get the phone unlocked so I can use a local European carrier.
    I can't seem to find out how this can be done

    Sprint will unlock the SIM slot only for current customers in good standing to use while travelling internationally.
    If your intent when purchasing it was to use it primarily outside of the US, you purchased the wrong phone.
    If you are currently a Sprint customer, contact Sprint. If you're not, then sell the phone to someone in the US who can use it.

  • IPhone 4 ordered through Apple Store app costs $699?!

    I used the new iPhone Apple Store app to order my new iPhone 4. It checked my eligibility and said it would be $299, but the email I received said $699! It did the same thing for my wife and my father.

    I called AT&T today and was told 3 times, i would have to pay $499.99 for the upgrade being that I was in one year of my two year contract. So I qualify for partial discount.
    I called AT&T a second time, later in the day just to make sure it was $499.99
    I just got back from the AT&T store. They wanted $699.99
    I walked out of the store without a complaint. This is "BAD" business practices.
    I refuse to pay $699.99 and might just cancel the iPhone all together.
    *Do not pay $699.99 no matter what.*
    Did you try the *639# option on your phone? It tells you if you are eligible for an upgrade. I only say this because I'm also in year one of my two-year contract, but when I dialed that number, I got a text saying I am eligible for an upgrade, paying an $18 upgrade fee. Additionally, when I entered my AT&T info when reserving a phone today, my price was $199 (for 16gb).
    Now I'm worried that I'll get there next week and they'll make me pay $399.
