I am going to travel abroad, what do I do to have my ihone working in foreign countries

That depends on what you mean by "working".
If you want to use local SIM cards in the countries you'll be travelling to, contact your carrier and ask what their policy on unlocking is.
If you want to make calls, etc. using your existing carrier, contact them and make sure international roaming is enabled on your account.

Standard steps from the manual are to reset and then restore as new. Which ones have you tried???

When I travel abroad my phone shows "no sim" and doesn't work. Help?

Hello.
I have travelled abroad the last couple of years and when I land my phone works for about 5-10 minutes then comes up with "no sim installed" then doesn't work at all.
Roaming is switched on from what my account says so I'm unsure of why this is happening. Could someone please help?
Thanks

Hi .
This is strange.
You will need to give us a call, we may need to update the Roaming settings.
Thanks.

Traveling Abroad, I Restored Iphone4sVerizon and now it No Longer works Itunes says

Hello I am Traveling abroad and Currently i am in Turkey do to a mishap I had to restore my Iphone 4s Verizon which had been working fine the day before. So I restored it and now when I plug it into Itunes it says that the number is N/A and the phone tells me I have no service. So I called verizon and they told me that the phone was activated. So I tried to make a call and it called but it can not send a text or use any data which is strange cause it could yesterday. When I power on the phone it tells me to wait for Activation and that it may take some time its been a day now and nothing has happened. I really need this to start working. I called verizon and they told me just to reset the phone which I had already tried and it was no help. I am in desperate need of help and any advice will help. I do have a international plan.
Thank You Very MUch

What is the cost to have an iphone app built for your website?

In the near future I would like to have an app built that works with my website.
Does anyone have an idea on how much it costs to have your own app created these days?
Thanks.

It's impossible to give a price based on the information you've given.
You would have to come up with a fairly detailed outline of exactly what you want the App to do, all the functionality it has, what sort of look and feel, what systems it needs to 'talk' to (your web site back-end), graphics, sound and animation etc.
Only with that information could someone begin to work out a estimated price. Then as you and the developer discusses the finer details, and the idea is expanded upon, or changed, the final price may change.

What i wll do to let my iphone work again, what i wll do to let my iphone work again

i am trying to charge my iphone but it giving me always battery down and after blue screen and different colour

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). IF all of these steps have been tried and the issue continues it's time to take the device to Apple for evaluation.

On your iPhone? No. Technically you can access iCloud.com from any computer but kind of pointless when you can't use it on the phone.

Can you still download from UK i tunes when you are traveling abroad - I have UK i-tunes, but going to study in Europe, but still want to use my UK account?

You can ONLY buy from the itunes store of your country of residence ( proven by the valid billing address on your credit card) and ONLY while inside the borders of that country.

How to properly update iTunes content while traveling abroad?

Spent some time searching and found a number of threads covering T&Cs and whys and wherefores of US Citizens on extended overseas travel trying to update or purchase iTunes content. There's a lot of 'why not' but not much 'how to'.
I'm seeking the Apple-approved solution for those of us with US based iTunes accounts who are traveling or deployed overseas or take extended temporary jobs abroad. How can we legally, properly, update our podcast subscriptions, apps for iPhones, or purchase content?
Do we have to simply change the country setting at the bottom of the iTunes Store window, so we are interacting with whatever the local Store is and the content will live happily in iTunes no matter which Store it was purchased from?
Do we have to set up a new account with local credit card in every land we are assigned?
There has to be a way, it seems illogical that you can't update podcasts or apps while traveling. There's got to be an Apple-approved method for this!
If anyone knows the answer or a link to the answer or something near to it, please provide the info. The T&C are clear enough in regards to "purchases" and using the US store only from in the US, but doesn't answer the 'how-to' for customers traveling abroad who are not spending any money by getting new podcast episodes or free app updates.
So again, no need to rehash the T&C, just seeking the 'proper' way to update things if away for a while. I'll be stupefied if I hear that the official Apple answer is the iPhone content is frozen in place until I get back in US territory.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, Chris.
After posting the message, I changed my iTunes Store to India (where there may be work opportunities) and there were only Apps and iTunes U content tabs, and the T&C were similar-can only shop at the store where you are connecting from. So unless the store looks different when logging in while physically in India, there wouldn't be a way to update podcasts.
I am concerned about an important distinction, though, which is 'what will work' vs. 'what is T&C compliant'...

HT5654 I often travel abroad and my host has changed Internet provider. Then my service was interrupted and I can't update iTunes. Any tips to stop the error messages?

Wow! At least on Apple TV, problem solved. Apple: what's not to love? Please give me credit if you use it in marketing campaigns... ;-)

I will be traveling to Hungary,Austria,Germany and the Chec Republic on a river cruise. Will I be able to use my iPad and if so what ,if anything do I have to do before traveling?

Most hotels, resort, hostel & motel in Europe provide power plug adapter if you forget to bring one or couldn't get them, no worries.
Also, most countries you are going do sell travel adapted in Apple Store & Apple Resellers.
In addition, almost all international airport sell them as well if you plan to do a last minute shopping.
By the way, you can lease or rent SIM / Micro-SIM card for your iPad in case you have an unlocked 3G model.
Rates are pretty reasonable.
This will allow you to Tweet/FB and download all your travel photos.

SPF, SRS and travelling abroad

Hello,
I've just been reading KB14081 on configuring SRS to overcome the problems with SPF blocking e-mail from Blackberries and the address which the KB advises you to add to your configuration is *@srs.bis.na.blackberry.com. I just did a test mail to myself to see the message header information and I noticed that the Return-Path address is srs.bis.eu.blackberry.com. Making a mental leap, I'm guessing that 'na' stands for North America. I tend to travel abroad from time to time (including North America) so do I need to add both the 'na' and 'eu' lines to my SPF configuration. If so, what other regional codes would one need to apply to be globally covered, or does everything just feed back to my original, 'eu', provider?
Many thanks,
Mark.

Yes.
All iMessage requires is an internet connection which can be wi-fi only.
Turn Cellular Data off and you can enable Airplane mode followed by turning wi-fi access on. All other iPhone radios will be off except for wi-fi.

Problem with 'No service' while traveling abroad

I am traveling abroad (Uganda) and cannot get service. I have traveled with my phone to Uganda previously (iPhone 5), and was able to send/receive text messages at that time. Prior to this trip, I called Verizon to ensure I had everything I needed in place for voice roaming. They told me that my phone was already enabled for global services. I did decline the global services package, but was told very clearly that I would be able to send/receive text messages and make/receive phone calls regardless of whether I purchased the package or not.
Since traveling through international airports and arriving in Uganda, my phone continues to say "no service" and cannot connect to any local signals. My husband is traveling with me, and his phone has no trouble picking up signals and he has sent/received several text messages. I have tried restarting my phone, taking it in/out of airplane mode, turning roaming on/off, etc. I do not understand what the problem is. I haven't had success trying to online chat. Will it cost me airtime to make a phone call to Verizon from my husband's phone? I don't want to incur large charges waiting on hold for 30 minutes.
I really need the ability to receive text messages while I am gone, in case of emergencies, and I am very frustrated. I ensured everything was in place prior to leaving, and my phone has worked overseas without issue previously. What is the problem, and how do I fix it??!!

Have you tried Resetting Network Settings yet? If not, I would...

I have 2 iphones on one itunes account. I just upgraded both to ios 8 and now the messages i receive come through to both phones when they used to be seperated. What is going on here?

I have 2 iphones on one itunes account. I just upgraded both to ios 8 and now the messages i receive come through to both phones when they used to be separated. What is going on here?

I noticed the same problem after upgrading a few iPhones to IOS 8, all use the same Apple ID. However, I now notice when I go into Message and instead of selecting a person from my contact list, I start typing their name which brings up a list of people, some of which are not in my contact list and are on one of the other iPhones. There's a circle/exclamation point next to the name which I click on, and one of the options is to "Remove from Recent". How did these names get from one phone to another and how do I remove all "recents"? They do not appear in my contact list. Anyone see this?
