HT4993 Moving abroad and would like to take my Sprint iPhone 4S.
I'm moving abroad and would like to take my Sprint iPhone 4S.
My wife is already in the foreign country and using the phone with a prepaid card from a local carrier.
Sprint said that the phones will be shut down once they deactivate our accounts.
What can or should we do ? Is there a way to get the phones to work overseas ?
Thanks in advance !

Sprint is a CDMA carrier. You can't take a Sprint (or Verizon) iPhone to another carrier. The SIM slot can be unlocked for International travel, but that's it. Without Sprint service, it's an iPod. Nothing more.
For what it's worth, that is not what Verizon said when I asked them this very question. According to the Global Support Team, once the Verizon phone is unlocked, it will continue to be unlocked and will continue to work on GSM networks outside of the U.S. even if the Verizon service is discontinued. I have no way of testing this as I do not plan on discontinuing my Verizon service at any time in the near future. I realize this is not useful information for the OP but it might be of interest to someone.

Will Apple only void all warranties if it's jailbroken? Since mine is only unlocked, I was wondering if I'd be taken care of.
Anyone have experience w/ this?The camera problem is commonly a Hardware Problem covered by Warranty or AppleCare Coverage. I would take the iPhone to Apple for Warranty Coverage. If the Genius decides to replace your iPhone, you will get a like new replacement iPhone 4 in perfect condition. Apple will not repair the iPhone, you will get a completely new to you iPhone. If the Genius determines you are out of Warranty, then you go home with your iPhone same as it currently is.

I would like to use a Sprint iPhone 5c on Verizon, ESN is clean
I have a 5s on Verizon, but would also like to buy a 5c and use it too, using the same SIM card I'm using now.

Aren't there computer programs for things like this out there
Not for the general public...in the four or five years since the Verizon iPhone 4 came out I cannot recall a single user saying they had success getting the iPhone refreshed. Before buying, talk with Verizon, see what they say, talk with Sprint, see what they say about authorizing the flashing. Since the iPhone is locked to Sprint, the authorization to unlock, i.e., flash is solely up to them. Apple will not get involved, Verizon will not help unless Sprint authorizes it. These are all contract-legal matters. -
I have recently upgraded to the iPhone 6 and would like to give my old iPhone 4S to a friend in Argentina. Can i do this, if so how? Would his carrier just put their SD card in the side?
It's very unlikely. Here are at least some of the conditions you would have to satisfy.
Ask the original iPhone 4S' cellular carrier if they will unlock the iPhone. If their answer is "no", you are finished and cannot proceed.
If the original carrier would unlock the iPhone, you would have to do this before passing it to your friend.
Check Settings > Genreal > About > Model and record the model number you see.
Ask your friend to contact their cellular carrier to find out if they support that particular model. -
I have moved from the UK to Canada and would like to pay for subscriptions in Canadian dollars rather than sterling pounds. Also I would like to take up Creative Cloud subscription offer because I qualified as a prior purchaser of CS packages.
How do I go about this?I did that - nothing happen... I have changed my adobe ID and all address to my Canada home.
Having log myself out and re-log back in to start the Creative Cloud subscription. The payment still shows in Sterling Pounds.
This is difficult as I am no longer earning Sterling pounds as a wage and the subscription would automatically be doubled payment, because Canadian $ is less in currency exchange to the UK Sterling Pound.
Thanks for your above suggestions, but what should I do now, to resolved this issue.

I would like to take a iTunes play list and put it on a USB drive for my car radio to stay in my car. Is there a way to do this through iTunes so you have all the song info and there's no number in front of the name of the song? Is there a program?
iTunes only syncs to Apple devices.
Assuming the media is not DRM protected, any of the media can be dragged and dropped from iTunes onto other drives (external, flash, etc) as the user chooses. -

I moved to another country and would like to change the billing country for the credit card. It doesn't allow me to switch the country only street etc.. Do I have to create a new account separately for a new country?
Nope. You can only have one credit card attached to an account at a time. Its not that big of a deal to use two accounts, users do this all the time. Create the second account(UK Account) in iTunes on your computer...sign out of your Italian account first. Then authorize your computer for this new account: Store>Authorize this computer. Then sync your phone. Now, to switch accounts on your phone: Settings>Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...then sign back in with the ID you want to use.

I moved and would like to switch my skype number to the new area code, is this possible?
Yes.
You may have to call into Verizon Customer care if you have a smartphone to remove the data plan and help you move over. Other than that it's a simple swap between devices. Contract doesn't matter unless you negligent in payment(or the person who you bought the device from is). -
I am a novice. I just bought a nikon d5200 and would like to know which Photoshop would serve me well at this juncture. I do not plan on becoming a professional, but would like to be able to edit and enhance the photographs that I will take. With several Photoshop programs on the market please advise me as to which I should purchase for the purposes I described ?

I have an older video ipod that I would like to take the songs off of and put on my new iphone. I haven't used the ipod in a few years. Is there a way to do this?
Yes. See this article from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to copy content from your iPod over to your computer and into iTunes. Once you have successfully done that, you can go ahead and sync the content over to your iPhone.

I would like to take a picture of a word on any mac display and transfer it over to my iPhone who will support this idea?

Then do so.
Nothing special, beyond an intelligent human being, is required to make this happen.
Read the User's Guide, it covers basic functionality of the device including syncing content from the computer to the device.
FYI, marking your own question as "solved" without actually solving, will generally get you ignored. -
I would like to take excel classes / tutorials (intermediate to advanced) and practice on this computer. Could someone clarify, what software and operating system is needed? Can I just use numbers? Do I need to download Excel for Macs and use Camp Boot?
Numbers is a joke compared to Excel. If I were you I would find a class/tutorial first, find out what they use (and it won't be Numbers) and see if you need the Mac or Windows version of Excel. Note that Excel is not sold as a seperate product from the Microsoft Office suites.
