I can't open my SIM card tray on iPad mini?!

I used like 5 paper clips and broke every one of them trying to open the tray. The box didn't come with a SIM eject tool, so I'm screwed. What do I do?!

how did you break them, the clip should be used to push straight in, no turns are necessary.
I suggest you take to an apple store or phone provider and have them take a look as it sounds like something is amiss in your unit.

  • Can't open my sim card tray

    I can't open my sim card tray -- have tried paper clip, safety pin, etc...

    Yes if its a one time problem one should visit the local store but since one might need it again and its a universal tool for all iphones and ipads so it might come handy some day or the other.
    Its not very expensive

    This listing is for less than a dollar and has three of them for less thana dollar and the SIM ejection tool can be kept in your iphone box or in your wallet.

    Can I connect a sim card to my ipad mini (WiFi)
    Nope. You cannot connect sim cards to iPads. You can insert them into the iPad's sim tray if it has one. Which if its is a Wifi only model it wil not have the tray nor the cellualr hardware to do anytihng with it.

  • TS3274 Just got an ipad and can't open the SIM Card slot - is it meant to be spring loaded - as it comes with a little tool that you poke in the hole, but it will not pop out any help please?

    Just got an ipad air, ordered from Apple online store, can't open the SIm card slot - comes with a special tool, but is it meant to be springloaded and just pop out? I think it is faulty.

  • Can you install a SIM card in a iPad model MD510B/AR

    Can you install a SIM card in a iPad model MD510B/AR

    Nope this appears to be a WiFi model only if my information is correct. If you have the device to hand then check it for a SIM card tray. With the Home key at the bottom the SIM card try if available will be in the top-left corner.

  • Can I put my iphone sim card into my ipad mini?

    Can I put my iphone sim card into my ipad mini?

    Depends on the model of iPhone, and the actual cellular plan it has.
    If its an iPhone 5 with an unlimited Data Plan you may be able to do it.
    Any other model of iPhone or a plan without a data packcage will not work.

  • Can you take the SIM card from an IPad and transfer it to a NEW Ipad (not yet purchased) without any problems? Are there any complicated steps involved? Thanks.

    Can you take the SIM card from an IPad and transfer it to a NEW Ipad (not yet purchased) without any problems? Are there any complicated steps involved? This is for my boss.
    Please let me know. Thanks in advance.

    Simple answer is YES.
    The only caviat is for instance in the UK some iPads are locked to a specific network provider and therefore if the new iPad is locked then it will only work on the specific network it is locked to.

  • How to insert SIM card into the iPad mini?

    How do I insert the SIM card into the iPad mini?  It is different tray to iPad 3. Please advise. Thank you.

    Hi Try the number 0000 or 1234 If this doesn't work ask for a PUCK code from your sim provider Also try the Passcode you use when you  turn iPad on Its a good think to have a simlock because if you lose your iPhone /iPad someone can use your  Simcard If it's not got a lock on. Cheers Brian

  • Can't open iTunes Store features tab on iPad mini. Message given is: 'Your request produced an error. (newNullResponse)."

    I can't open iTunes Store features tab on iPad mini. Message given is: 'Your request produced an error. (newNullResponse)." 
    How do I resolve this problem?

    Try restarting your iPad or testing on another Wi-Fi network.
    If that doesn't do it, try the troubleshooting steps in this iTunes Store doc. The same steps should help with App Store problems.

  • I can't open my tooncamera app in my iPad mini. I already deleted and dowloaded it again. What should I do?

    I can't open my tooncamera app in my iPad mini. I already deleted and dowloaded it again. What should I do?

    Hello Neigilray,
    It sounds like you have removed and re downloaded it from the App Store, but when you tap the app icon it still will not launch. If you haven't already, I would delete the app just 1 more time then restart the iPad Mini:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Then install the app again and re test it. if the issue persists, I would next back up your phone to your iTunes library and restore it then test it out again:

  • Where can I buy a SIM card for my iPad in Germany that will also work in France and Belgium?Germ

    I am travelling to Germany for 2 weeks in mid-July and would like a SIM card that would work there, and France and Belgium.
    Do they sell them in the Frankfurt airport?
    Anyone knows where they sell them in Cologne?
    A company called 'Cellular Abroad Support' (American) will sell me one for $59 plus $8.95 to cut it into a micro SIM.
    What is the best way to go?
    My computer skills are minimal.
    Txs.

    Hi
    On the Toshiba website you can search for the nearest authorized service provider. They sell all original Toshiba spare parts. Call them and ask for a new keyboard, they can order a new one for you.
    Here you can search for the nearest ASP:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Find an authorized service provider
    Second hands you get from eBay for example but normally keyboards are not so expensive so I would buy a new one.

  • Can I use the SIM card from my iPad 3 in iPad mini?

    I have an iPad 3 cellular which I use mostly on wi-fi.  Could I use the SIM card in a new iPad Mini?

    No, the iPad 3 uses micro-sims, the iPad mini uses nano-sims - you will need to get a new nano-sim card
