The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.

These are your Options...

You need to Contact the Carrier the Phone is Locked to.
Note:
No one here will know who that Carrier is.

If your phone is locked to AT&T, you can certainly travel & use your phone, but you'll have to get AT&T to provision your account for International use...select the country/countries & plan. This is very expensive, as the roaming partners set the rates & you generally pay through the nose.
And no, you can't use a local sim if your phone is locked to AT&T.

Can I use a T-Mobile contract-free iPhone 6 in any country with any SIM Card carrier?

I'm from Uruguay and I want to buy an iPhone 6 contract free from T-Mobile. My doubt is if I'll be able to use it in my country with a local carrier. In other words, is a factory unlocked iPhone? Which is the difference between a unlock iPhone and a Contract-Free T-Mobile iPhone?

Hey Nicolas,
I had the same question, so I went to the Apple chat, and I asked the same, 'cause I need an iPhone to works in South America and Europe as well.
so what the person on the chat answered me was that the T-mobile cellphone comes Unlocked, so you can use it anywhere.
I Guess I can get it and now.

How come i cant use my iphone out of the country?

do i need anything special to make my iphone to work out of the country?

Well, yes. Verizon's network is CDMA, most of the other networks in the world are GSM. So the hardware will not work anywhere there is not a CDMA network. I think there are about 40 countries that have CDMA networks in addition to GSM. Verizon should have the list on their web site. In addtion, the phone is locked to Verizon, so anywhere you go you will be paying roaming rates, which will quickly bankrupt you.
If you take the phone with you turn off Cellular Data and use only WiFi hotspots. You will not be able to make or receive phone calls, but in most countries you can buy a cheap phone ($10-$20) and pay as you go SIM to make phone calls. If you want to receive phone calls also sign up for a free Google Voice account and set it to forward to your temporary GSM phone.

Josejanko,
You don't supply much info other than your machine is old, so here is some info for you to check thru.
Before doing anything you should have a back up, preferably 2, in the event something goes wrong.
You would have to start by upgrading to Snow Leopard, you would need to buy the disk for about $20 here http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Check the the requirements to see if your machine meets them.
You would then need to run the 10.6.8 v1.1 combo update to get it to 10.6.8 Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
You can then access the APP STORE and possibly upgrade to to further OSX.
You may have applications that will not be compatible with any thing past Snow Leopard, you can check those here Upgrading to 10.7 and above, don't forget Rosetta!
http://roaringapps.com/apps
Office 2008 will not work with anything newer than Snow Leopard for an wxample
You may be able to upgrade to Lion or MT Lion or Yosemite, depending on your machine, from the APP STORE.
OS X Lion - Technical Specifications Lion
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6377Z/A/os-x-mountain-lion Mountain Lion

Hope this helps you

HT1212 ipad disabled it syncs sand starts download for update but stops and says network connection timed out. its not 3g cant use find iphone

trying to unlock sons disabled ipad mini cant use find iphone not 3g and wont connect internet when disabled syncs to itunes whenusing never synced method
asks if i want to update and restore download starts and then message syas network connection timed out. any ideas on another method i can update after unlocked and restore all his stuff from icloud

Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer

Try using RecBoot or TinyUmbrella to kick it out of Recovery mode.

What error message (and number) do you get when you try to restore?
What kind of computer and operating system do you have?
How are you connecting the iPhone to the computer (directly, or to a USB hub)?
Have you tried disabling your antivirus and firewall?

HT1338 I cant get my iphone 5 to be compatible with my mac book pro. I've been trying to update my itunes but it wont let me because it tells me i dont have the right software is there anything that I can do so I can sync my phone to computer?

I cant get my iphone 5 to be compatible with my mac book pro. When I plug the iphone 5 in it tells me that i need a newer version of itunes 10.7 and I currently have 10.6. I checked for updates in my itunes and it says i dont have any. So i have gone to the itunes website to try and redownload itunes which i believe it 11.7. When I try and download that version it tells me the software on my computer doesn't suppor that version. I try to update my software and it says there is not software updates available right now. Is there anyway I can get my iphone 5 to synce to my itunes?

In order to get those to work you will have to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard, preferably the full 10.6.8 combo updater.

Can I use the iPhone 6 t-mobile version with straight talk?

Can I use the iPhone 6 t-mobile version with straight talk?

All,
I have read and understand most of the post (s) on this: Apple Support Community:
It looks like the long way around my elbow approach: (piecing together an iPhone 6+ with a Straight Talk AT&T /T Mobile; Compatible Nano SIM Card) may yet work, just a bit gun shy on the $949.00 cost for the iPhone 6+ from Apple.
I live in Hawaii on the island of Oahu (north shore), and have an iPhone 4 8gb cdma iPhone which is on Verizon's network rebranded by TFW / Straight Talk for several years. It works fine but I need an iPhone with more storage.
I have had a talk / chat with both sides Apple & Straight Talk, neither have real answers to support using the iPhone 6+ with Straight Talk as a carrier.
On the Apple site: " http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ ". It is clear that Straight Talk has certified their LTE network with iPhone 6/6+ to meet basic standards.
I / we need all of the successful trail braisers on this community to post what works & what does not work.
What I plan / have to purchase / buy:
Direct from Apple:
1. Contract-free iPhone 6 Plus 128GB Space Gray (GSM) T-Mobile. (pending research to ensure it will work). Apple confirms, without the T Mobile nano sim that this iPhone is unlocked.
Direct from Straight Talk:
2. AT&T /T Mobile; Compatible Nano SIM Card. (GSM; on its way)
Would have purchased a Verizon Nano SIM Card from Straight Talk but they do not seem to have one.
All support, advice & information is greatly appreciated.

Can i use my iphone 3 in new zealand with a nz sim card without it needing to be unlocked?

can i use my iphone 3 in new zealand with a nz sim card in it without it needing to be unlocked?

That depends... its is ALREADY unlocked? If so, then you should be fine. If the phone is carrier locked, then no, obviously you can't use it with a SIM from another carrier without getting it unlocked first.
