HT5661 i need to unregister my old iphone

I am not getting text on my new phone that is not an Iphone from people that have Iphones. I have been told that I need to unregister my old iphone.
How do I do this?

Contact your wireless carrier so they can de-activate
the SIM in the stolen iPhone and activate the SIM in
the old iPhone.

Connect your new phone to your computer using the USB cable and it should appear in iTunes. If it doesn't you will need to troubleshoot. Then see: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109

Device not recognized in iTunes

HT201441 Need to erase my old iphone but... It's locked (I don't remember the pass code#, it is not connected to wi-fi or cellular #so I can't erase from my icloud). Help??

I need to erase my old (unused currently) phone so my kids can use it on wi-fi and play games but it's locked & I don't remember the pass code. Any one know how to erase it and start over without the pass code.
PS it is not currently connedted to wi-fi so the simple "erase device" using iCloud won't work.

Here is a guide how you could reset your iPhone via iTunes, if you cannot remember the passcode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

HT1688 I need to unregister my old phone. Could you please tell me how to do this.

I am no longer using an iphone and need to unregister it. How do I do this?

you mean? unregister it how? if you switched to a non apple device you may need to unregister your number from the imessage server. if you mean uregister it as not in your name the new cusotmer can restore the device in itunes and set it up as new and it should register it to the new customer if not have them call apple and they can register it to the new cusotmer. if your talking about it being tied to your cellular carrier account that should be taken up with the carrier.

Do I need to unlock my old iPhone before I get a new one?

My contract with AT&T was up in June and I'm planning to re-sign when I buy iPhone 5. I currently have iPhone 4, which I was planning to give to my niece who currently has one of those pay-as-you-go phones. (She will not be using it with any major carriers.)
My question is do I need to unlock my current iPhone 4 from AT&T before I buy iPhone 5? Or how would it work?

It depends on which network your daughter is on. If it's Orange UK, then no the iPhone 4 will not need unlocking, but if any other network, including 4GEE or T-Mobile, then yes you will first need to get it unlocked.
That can be done by filling in this online form.

I need to sync my old iPhone to a new iTunes but need to keep the data?

Hi,
I have got a new computer, and so obviosuly have had to download a new verison of iTunes to go with it, however, I now cant sync my iPhone (which was linked previously to an iTunes account on my old computer) without it wanting to erase allll my stuff. Any help??
Thanks so much.

You will need to move your iTunes library (and "all your stuff", like contacts, etc.) from your old computer to your new computer. When you Have it all set up, you can set up your phone to sync with the new library. This will erase the phone, but you can re-sync your media, apps, etc. from the iTunes library you've moved to the new one.
You can NOT use the iPhone to move your library from one machine to another. It is not a backup device.

Need help unregistering an old version of PSE

I need to install PSE 6, but it is currently showing as being registered on two now-dead computers. After going through phone and online chat, I find out that support is only available through the forums. Can someone remove the registration?

First of all are you getting any sort of error to stop you from installing it? PSE 6 mostly didn't have activation, so if you haven't tried, do so.
If you did get one of the few copies with activation, go here:
Activation & Deactivation Help
Scroll down to Still need help? Contact us. You want activation support, not regular tech support, for this.

You may want to contact Apple Support. The quotation below is from Can’t receive text messages on a non-Apple phone
If you don't have access to your iPhone, or if you can't deactivate iMessage from your iPhone, please contact Apple Support. Support for this issue is free.

Need help activating an old iphone that was given to me

I was given a A1303 3gs 16GB and cant seem to activate with newly purchased sim card...help please.

You can try these directions, but I tend to agree with KiltedTim that the phone had been hacked, or one that had been hacked was connected to your iTunes.
Edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from your hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart.

How to activate an old iphone (after restoring it) without a new data plan

First off thanks for any help – I've seen the support article Using an iPhone without a wireless service plan and it no longer seems to reflect the current setup for the iTunes Store.
I have an old original iPhone that I've been using as an iPod. Works fine, but for some reason I wasn't able to replace some old photos with additional music. So, I decided to restore the phone and wipe it clean so there would be more space for music.
After the phone was wiped clean, it needed to be reactivated. There's no way to get into the phone or load music onto it without activating it, as far as I can tell. I saw the support article above, but after going through the steps in the iTunes store there was no way to active the phone without purchasing a $20 a month data plan. I know there's another way (or there used to be) but I can't figure it out.
Basically, just need to active my old iPhone, so that I can continue to use it as an iPod touch, without purchasing a new data plan.
Any help would be appriciated, thanks!
-joe

More info – the phone was used (by me) with a data plan for about two years.
The SIM card that's in the phone is the same as when I first purchased it.
I can easily activate it – just not without purcahsing a data plan.

How do I take my old iphone off my icloud storage after I no longer have the phone?

I need help taking my old iphone off my icloud storage.

The only storage it could be using is an old iCloud backup, if you were backing it up to iCloud. You can remove this from another device that is sharing the account by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage, tap the name of the old phone under Backups, then tap Delete Backup.

HT5661 If I reset and erase contents from my old iphone as suggested, will it effect my new iphone that I have already transferred my data to? Do I need to turn off Icloud on old phone before erasing data ?

If I reset and erase contents from my old iphone will it effect the data I have already transferred to my ne iphone?

Hello ski12
Restoring or erasing all content and settings will just turn the feature of iCloud off and not deleting from iCloud. If you want to, turn off iCloud before you go through with erasing it.
