HT3965 i had changed my sim card and trying to activate my iPhone but can't activate it
i had changed my sim card and trying to activate my iPhone but can't activate it. its giving me error like your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailble....
temporarily means try later
and
check your Internet connection
get to know if your iPhone has a netlock (no use with another provider) or even a simlock (no use with another SIM)

The salesperson for my iphone 4 said on Christmas morning we could go to our online account, select my number, select to change my SIM card, and enter the ICCID number so that I'd be able to use my iphone 4 today instead of my old phone (not an iphone). I have not seen any such steps. Help?
I suspect the salesperson that told you that meant your online account with your carrier...have you tried logging into your carrier account online? To do this will require the sim number on your sim card, as well as the phone's IMEI number...you get the sim number off the sim card & the IMEI number, for the phone, is printed on the box.

I would guess you need the A1460 model

I changed my sim card and i can't unlocked the iphone (the password reamains the same)
I changed my Sim card and after insert it into the old iPhone (5) I can't unlocked it anymore. I'm using the same 4 number password.
What is the exact error you're getting? Are you sure it's not asking you to unlock the SIM?

Yes, the message is self-explanatory. You need a carrier who supports Apple's activation policy for an iPhone.

HT4994 If I took my sim card and put it in another iPhone, would that phone now work w my number???
If I took my sim card and put it in another iPhone would it work w my number now????
Quoted from your second post:
"It's my daughters phone. We are all on the same plan/ carrier"
If that's true, you don't need to get the phone unlocked, all you have to do is swap sims. -
i want to use another SIM card cause im in another country now but i cant activate my iphone. Anyone?
The iPhone is most likely locked to the network of the company you purchased the iPhone for. You'll need to contact the mobile provider to unlock it. They are the only one's who can unlock it.

I download app only available in Poland and change my IDi now I came back to original account but can not activate itune match anymore I have to wait 90 days any issue because I pay itune match with my original account thanks for support
thanks Meg
I understand you are not Apple but i was presuming that some logic or technical reason i miss was behind this.
I really do not see any logic business pratice. If i understand i can be agree or desagree but as minima i know the rules and why.
to sumarize...my story
my id was with XXX and i bought Itune match one year with this account and 4 device are conected with the same account.
on Ipad device i change my ID to YYY then .... because i need to update some apps and connect to itune match i came back to ID XXX then no problem to update apps but .... no way to come back to itune match.
.... no way to use itune match anyhow with Ipad and account XXX linked with account XXX. WHYYYY ??? no clue. -
I changed my sim card and contact names are gone in messages app.
When I changed my sim card to a Spanish one in messages app's contact names are gone. My contacts are in iphone not in sim card i can see them in contacts but the problem is number are showing in messages not the names.
The SIM is not involved. The iPhone does not save contacts to the SIM. Most likely when you restored the phone as a step in unlocking the phone you did not restore your most recent backup.

Need help with iphone 4. tried to download new software and it zorked sim card and phone. Only get a blinking apple icon. Computer doesn't recognize iphone so I can't restore
Hello henry lfrommiami,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To troubleshoot this issue where your iPhone gives you the message "No SIM Card installed" please follow the steps below.
Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
Turn airplane mode on and then off again.
Restart your iPhone.
Check for a carrier settings update. Go to Settings > General > About. Install any available update.
Remove the SIM card and make sure that it's a valid SIM that your carrier provided. Also make sure that it's not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
A SIM tray that comes with one iPhone model won't necessarily work with a different iPhone model. When you insert the correct SIM tray, the SIM tray should be flush with the device.
If you have another SIM card, insert it. You can use a SIM card from any phone with the same format as your iPhone SIM card. If your iPhone works with that SIM card, contact the carrier that issued your original SIM card.
Restore the iPhone.
If you still see the issue, contact Apple support.
If you see 'No SIM' alert on iPhone
Cheers,
Alex H. -
I changed my sim card and now my contact names are gone in iMessage?
So i just unlocked my iPhone and switched the sim card from ATT to another carrier (optus) and wanted to change numbers just because this is a temporary switch.
Now when i go to messages my contacts all appear as phone numbers instead of their names. I still have them in my phone if i go look at the contact/address book but they don't appear in messages.
I want to switch it to names not numbers.
(I still have the original sim and have it backed up to my computer if that helps)The SIM is not involved. The iPhone does not save contacts to the SIM. Most likely when you restored the phone as a step in unlocking the phone you did not restore your most recent backup.

Do I have to have an unlock code to change my SIM card and use my iPad in France
My iPad 2 has an Orange SIM card which is quite expensive to use roaming, during a trip to France at Easter with our camper found it very difficult to find a good WiFi connection (couldn't find anything usable to Skype). I understand that we could now get a Pay as you go SIM from 3 that can be used in Europe, can anyone tell me whether I need an unlock code to swap this over?
Thank youDepends on whether you bought your iPad from Orange on a contract with the SIM already in there or whether you bought the iPad unlocked directly from Apple and then bought a SIM from Orange separately.
If you got it unlocked from Apple then you can put any SIM in there. If you didn't and are still under contract to Orange then I doubt they would allow you to put a Three SIM in there (i.e. unlock it). -
After updating my iphone 4 to iOS 5, it refused to read my att SIM Card. I went to the Apple store (Lennox Mall, Atlanta Georgia) for help, they told me that it was an Att problem, and needed me to get a brand new Sim Card from Att. I went to Att and replaced my SIM Card to a new one. I later returned to the Apple store, but the phone still didn't work. The apple techs blamed the att network, and stated I needed to go home and wait for 24-48 hrs, and retry the att network again, and hopefully the phone will work. The next option they gave me was to pay $200.00 to get a replacement because my phone was out of warranty.
So I basically I have a phone which has never been dropped, not abused, no water damage or what so ever. Prior to my IOS 5 update, it worked perfectly without any problems. Now, that its not working as a result of either Apple's or Att's fault, no one seems to be helping or standing behing their product. Both parties are blaming each other for the problem. Can someone help??I've seen a number of reports of this on here. In most cases where people took their phones in to the Apple store, they were given a replacement, even if the phone was out of warranty.
