HT4623 downloaded software from US itunes to a canada phone now says sim card not supported??

Itunes will not give me the option to update or change the software from the US version to Canada. How can I bypass this roadblock?

Have you tried restoring your iPhone with iTunes?
If so with no change, make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

SIM Card Not Supported. Never Hacked iPhone Bought From Apple Store!

My 3GS was stolen yesterday. I have my never hacked iPhone 2G that I wanted to re-activate so I went down to the ATT store and they gave me a new sim to put in and activate. iTunes says that the SIM is not supported. Went back and tried another SIM and no luck. After 2 hours at the store still no working phone.
I never hacked the phone, just always updated it with the latest apple software. It sat in a drawer for a year now until my 3GS was stolen. Restore didn't help.
ANY IDEAS?

Mmmm...the sim you're trying to use is activated, correct? If so, try this:
See if you can force the phone into recovery mode:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. You, of course, would chose "new".

HT204266 Every time i try downloading anything from app store it gives an error message saying "This is not a Test User account. Please create a new account in the Sandbox environment." and i didn't use jailbreak and never downloaded cracked software

Everytime i try to download from app store it gives me an error message saying "This is not a Test User account. Please create a new account in the Sandbox environment." although i never used jailbreak or downloaded cracked software

Yep, I've been reading through other threads on lots of different sites over the last few hours and I can't seem to find a working solution, even though some seem to have worked for other people.
Most of them hadn't been updated in a while so I made my own post to see if anyone has anything new.

ITunes error message SIM card not supported after hard restore

Decided to do a Restore of iPhone 4 after several unresolved issues. Everything fine until reboot when iTunes tells me that the SIM card is not recognized. I have found numerous posts and discussiopns about this; I have removed SIM card, restarted, re inserted card, reset phone all to no avail....do I really need to buy a new SIM card?

Was the phone purchased new in the US from either Apple or AT&T? If not it is locked to some other carrier and there is nothing you can legitimately do about it.
If you DID buy it new from AT&T or Apple the phone is broken; you will have to contact Apple for replacement. If it is less than a year old this will not cost anything. You can check warranty status here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do

I just tried to play a video podcast on iTunes and received and error message saying QuickTime is not supported by this version of iTunes?

I have the latest version of iTunes installed on my iMac. Everything on the iMac is up to date. I am perplexed by iTunes not supporting QuickTime. Has anyone else experienced this?

Try relaunching iTunes in 32-bit mode first, as per the instructions in the following document:
iTunes for Mac: Older media files may require iTunes to reopen in 32-bit mode

I upgraded my iPhone 4 software to iOS and i now get a message reading "SIM card not supported"

I upgraded my iPhone 4 software to the latest iOS version and now cannot get network coverage. I only receive a message that reads "The SIM Card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported".
anyone with ideas for a possible solution?

You have a phone that is locked to a specific carrier. If it worked with your carrier before the update that means that the phone was hacked or jailbroken. Updating it "undid" the jailbreak and left the phone locked to its original carrier. There is no way to resolve this, as there is no jailbreak for iOS 7 and no way to go back to the previous version of iOS.

I just restored my iphone 3g on itunes but when it finished i had recived a error saying that sim card not supported

i restored my iphone 3g and i got an error (the sim card inserted in this iphone does not appear to be supported) any HELP

That message appears because your phone was hacked to unlock it in order to use it with the carrier you're now using. Updating software or restoring a hacked iPhone will re-lock it to the carrier it was originally locked to. You have two choices: re-hack it, or get it officially unlocked(only the carrier it is locked to can authorize such).

How do I download adobe flash 9.0? MY SAMSUNG GALAXY2 TAB SAYS IT DOES NOT SUPPORT FLASh 9

how do i get adobe flas 9.0 on my android tablet. message says my device does nit support it.

That message is just a standard one issued, mainly for Windows users, you can disregard it if you didn't install any anti-virus. (OS X has one installed by Apple that doesn't interfere)
It's just some forms of anti-malware are really paranoid and lock the entire machine down. (like Norton)

I've always wanted to obtain and have perfect resolutioned cover art for my albums. I have been and downloaded albums from the iTunes store, and they come with really great cover art. How can I get cover art as precise and clean as the albums have on ther

My problem mainly concerns cover art.
There have been times when I downloaded albums from the iTunes store to find its cover art it is absolutely beautiful, and is absolutely 100% un stretched. Whereas when I have gotten images for a specific album from Google Images it's terribly pixelated and totally disgusting.
Is there a way for me to obtain cover art for my albums that is has clarity equal to the cover art on the iTunes store albums.
Or will it basically boil down to I can only get that cover art by downloading my albums off the store?

The old iTunes libraries do not restore any playlists or song counts.
They should you if you do the roll back properly... Opening files from the Previous iTunes Libraries folder in Windows Explorer simply opens the current library. If you don't see the .itl file extension then don't give your copied and renamed file the extention or iTunes will create an empty library rather than using the renamed file.
If you had a complete pre-problem backup of your library you could restore that. On the assumption that isn't possible I have a script called ExportImport that could in principle be adjusted to save the relevant data from a backup of the library database and then reimport that data into the current library. See this thread for details.
