I really wish I could get paid by how many times I have to say this.  The iPhone 5s has not been released in the US in a factory unlocked configuration.  You took a $700 gamble and lost.

  • If I dont have wifi at home, can i use my iphone 4s to connect to the router?

    If I dont have wifi at home, can i use my iphone 4s to connect to the router and how?

    A lot of routers have the network name (ssid) and security key (password) for their wi-fi function  printed on a sticker on the bottom or back
    It sounds like your uncle is talking about a router with a wps ( wi-fi protected setup) function where you can press a button on the pc and router and then the router sends the network info to the pc, well unfortunately this does not work with the iPhone, you will need the password.
    Alternatively you can get the password by entering the routers internet based managment page by typing in its ip address into the address bar of your web browser ( usually this is somthing like 192.168.1.1 if this dosent work try googling the manufacturers name, model number and a query  e.g. linksys 54geu router managment ip address? ) if after typing in the router management ip address you get a page asking for a user name and password try entering Admin for the username and password for the password ( these are somtimes used as defaults untill you log in and change them) if these dont work they have probably been changed. Once in the router management page go to the wireless section and you will find the  network security key (password) in the security tab usually these are obscured as astrixes but ticking the show characters box will let you see them.

    My incoming calls on my iphone 5C get disconnected after the first ring. Please help!

    I had this problem too with my newly bought iPhone 4s.I went to a technician shop to ask what the problem is and they said they could fix it however they would charge £35 and I believed this was too much. I was playing around with my iPhone to see if I could fix this problem I went on setting the clicked on the music section at the music section there is the button called sound check which was off so I decided to turn it on . After I turned it on my sound came back I was ecstatic I saved myself £35 and having to return the phone.

  • Can i use my iphone as a remote for the iPad

    is there an APP that will allow me to use my iphone to control my ipad2?

    You can use your IOS device to do initial setup on an Apple TV, but you won't be able to use it as a remote as that also requires home sharing to be enabled. I would take it to Apple to test the remote and/or get a replacement.

  • Can i use my iphone while its charging for the first time

    i just got the iphone 6. when i turned it on for the first time it had like half battery, i let it fully die and now im charging it for the first time. can i use it while its charging? every phone ive ever had had such a crappy battery life. i wanna finally have a good battery! lol

    Hi. Sure, you can use your iPhone when charging (but not always) . Just release your battery under 10% and recharge to 100% once a month, it can be helpful for battery life.
    That is actually not considered best practice. Lithium ion batteries should be kept topped up when possible. That was previously recommended to calibrate the battery sensor. It never had any effect on the overall life of the battery.

  • Can i use my iphone that I bought in Canada, in the USA?

    I'd like to know from the community if anyone has tried to use their iPhone in the US? Given that they had bought their iPhone from the Apple store and had it activated through Rogers in Canada. I'd like to know if it is as simple as just swapping out the sim card to a prepaid sim card in the US.
    Thank you so much for responding.

    If you bought it unlocked and not under contract for full price at an Apple Store and then got a microSIM from Rogers you can swap the microSIM and use one from the US. If it was under contract, subsidized and not unlocked, then no.
    Look at your receipt and it will tell you if it is unlocked.

  • Can I use my iphone as a hotspot for the new ipad thru Verizon?

    I currently own an iphone and have service thru Verizon.  Would like to purchase the new ipad.  I didn't know if I needed to spend the extra money for the wi-fi-4g cellular (verizon) and have to pay for the service monthly or could I use my iphone as my hotspot?  Any advise would be great!   Thanks!

    Verizon does offer Personal Hotspot (aka "tethering") for the iPhone. You will have pay extra for the service. Contact Verizon to get pricing.

  • HT201272 I can't find my songs I just bought on my iPod touch..please help thank you

    I can't find the songs I just bought on my iPod touch. Any help you can give me is appreciated.. Thank you

    If they've finished downloading then they should be in the iPod's Music app - is that where you've looked for them ? If they don't show in there then have you tried closing the Music app via the iPod's taskbar and/or tried a soft-reset of your iPod to see if they then show up in Music ?

    Don't try to charge ur iPhone with ur iPad charger or else u will regret like my iPhone battery life is very weak now..!!
    You may be having problems with your battery. However, they were not caused by using your iPad charger. The iPad charger is compatible with the iPhone and can safely be used with it. If your phone is less than a year old, you may want to take it to your nearest Apple Store and have them take a look at it. If the battery is not functioning correctly, they will replace it for you.

  • Can I use my iPhone 5S in Europe with the global services?  Am I exposed to extra roaming charges?

    I am also traveling in the middle of a billing cycle.  Can I change my billing cycle to avoid this?

    Yes you can use the 5S in Europe.  It is all roaming charges and expensive.   You can't change your billing cycle, though I am not sure why you want to Change it.  Check out Verizon global information to know rates in each country you are visiting.   Just so you are clear WARNING WARNING.  If you do not know what you are doing and use your phone in foreign countries, including all the countries of Europe, you can rack up tens of thousands (YES greater than $10,000) with very little effort.  Unless you know what you are doing, put the phone in airplane mode, and only then turn wifi on only.

    Gift cards are country specific.

  • Can I use an iPhone 4 I bought in Australia in Greece with greek network providers?

    Will an iphone 4 purchased in Australia work in Greece with a Greek telephone company?
    Is there a setting which needs to be reconfigured?
    Is there a region block on such universal use of the device?

    In theory yes as all the Apple Approved carriers in Australia offer unlocking .
    However most carriers require the requestor to be a current customer and active on their networks so if it is locked and you do not meet their requirements then possibly not
    You need to contact them to establish reality if it turns out to be locked

  • Can I use an iPad 2 3G bought in the USA with a different phone carrier in my home country?

    I intend to buy an iPad 2 3G  in the USA and bring it back to my home country (Chile) but I'm not sure if the broadband connection will work here with a phone carrier different from AT&T or Verizon. If somebody knows the answer please let me know as soon as possible as I have to buy the iPad this week.
    Thanks in advance.
    RB

    The ATT iPad model uses the GSM technology (VZ uses CDMA, which is used in very few places outside the US). Get the ATT iPad, you can plop in your local microSIM card, the iPad is not locked to ATT.
