I got an iphone from an apple store. does it mean that I can use it in another country (since it must be unlocked)?

Can I use it in another country?
Not sure what factory unlocked really implies..

With restriction and proper procedure, you can probably use the iPhone in another country. As KiltedTim mentioned, you've failed to provide us with sufficient information. Since you bought the iPhone form an Apple store, why didn't you speak with someone at the store?

I am locked out of my computer (macbook air) I just got it back from the apple store and they reset it. I put in a new password, and now it doesnt let me log in anymore. Command R doesnt work, all i hear is a sound, but nothing happens.

I just got it back from the apple store and they reset it (becuase it kept shutting down and not turning back on).
I put in a new password because i needed to start over from factory settings, but now it doesnt let me log in anymore. (I don't know if this is because it doesnt accpet my password, or I forgot my password in less than 5 minutes, or because when i typed in my new password, i typed it in wrong twice)

What I don't understand is why it is rejecting a password I am creating.
Perhaps the password you are creating is too short, or has characters that are not allowed, or is not secure enough because it is a word in a dictionary.
FileVault may have standards for what it considers an acceptable password. If the password is part of the 128-bit encryption scheme, it might have to be 16 characters, for example. (Don't know if that is true, but it's a possibility.) Check your documentation for password requirements.

I'm visiting new York(USA) for work on Sunday, just wanted to know if i can buy an un locked iphone from the apple store or not, since i'm not a resident, to the record we don't have an apple store at my country

I'm visiting new York(USA) for work on Sunday, just wanted to know if i can buy an un locked iphone from the apple store or not, since i'm not a resident, to the record we don't have an apple store at my country.

You can buy an unlocked iPhone at any of the 5 Apple stores in NYC. All are open on Sunday. Note a couple of things, however:
US iPhone 5's will work on 3G in the rest of the world, but not on LTE because the US phones use different channels than other countries
Be sure you say "unlocked", not "no contract"
If it breaks it must be returned to a US store for repair, and if shipped to Apple it must be from and to a US address

Hello I bought my iPhone from liverpools apple store, I put a giffgaff cArd inside and it locked my phone into 02 network. I contacted o2 as you suggested and they told me that they didn't lock my iPhone. Please find me some help

I guess you mean unlock the device. To lock it would mean to be possible to se it only with one carrier.
So no, unlocking the device must be done by the original carrier, you should contact them to do that.

Hi, I just wanted to buy two iphones from the apple store usa with a lebanese credit card. Is it possible?

The US Apple Store accepts US-issued credit cards only. And they will ship only to a US address. Whether or not a physical Apple Store would accept a Lebanese credit card I don't know.

Really. You cannot exchange a 32 gb for a 16 gb at all.
Sorry.
The Canada Proce happens to be $149. You can look this up yourself.

HT1338 I need to bulk upload to Auctiva (auction software) but Java was disabled on my computer. I have 10.5.8 so does this mean that I can't use Java? If not, then is there a workaround to be able to use the bulk uploader from Auctiva?

I need to bulk upload images from iPhoto to Auctiva (auction software) that will then be posted to eBay; however Java was disabled on my computer some time ago due to "known issues." I have 10.5.8 so does this mean that I can't use Java? If not, then is there a workaround to be able to use the bulk uploader from Auctiva? As it stands now, I have to upload photos individually which is super time consuming.

You can re-enable it for special purposes, opposite of disabling it...
Disable Java in your Browser settings, not JavaScript.

Can I buy an Iphone from the Apple Store in the US from outside the country?

Is it possible to buy the upcoming Iphone 5 from the Apple store in US, but living in a foreign country?
Would like to know if it is possible, the new Iphone will be shipped in an address in the US.
Thanks

To purchase from the US online store requires a verified billing/shipping address in the US.

How can I use my ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections. The apple store clerk told me that I can't use airport express unless I also have a computer with me in the hotel.

How can I use my Ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections? The Apple store clerk told me that travel express won't work in my hotel unless I also have a computer.

The issue with the Airport Express (or any of the Apple routers) is that you need the Airport Utility to configure it. Airport Utility works on OSX and Windows, but not on the iPad (or iPhone or iPod Touch.) It will work, if you can preconfigure the Airport correctly ahead of time, but you'd be stuck if you did need to reconfigure while at the hotel.
You can use most any other router that is configured with a web page, which means you have a chance of configuring with Safari on the iPad. If you want something somewhat portable, I use a "travel router" made by D-Link. The current model is the DAP-1350. Other companies make similar travel routers, but I have no experience with the others.

Buying a factory unlocked iphone from US(Apple Store) to use in india.

Hi one of my friend is bringing me an iphone 5s to India.. yayy
it would be factory unlocked and will be purchased from apple store.
my primary concerns are do i need to activate iphone via itunes(or is it ready to use).
And do i need to have a backup file of an iphone(for first time activation) . Because this is my first iphone and i do not have an iphone backup file.
But i do have an ipad. Will the ipad backup work to restore(for activation)
Or is it that iphone is ready to use out of the box?

Hi Kushalroxx
You can use the device normally in India just bear in mind that if the device need a repair for any reason the phone can only be set up to repair in a US Apple Retail Store or Authorised Reseller.
You can still contact Indian Apple Care line at (91) 1800 4250 744 for phone support, but setting up to repair require the phone to be serviced in the country of purchase.

I want to buy an iPhone from the apple store is it work in the Middle East

Hello I live in Saudi Arabia and I would like to buy an iphone from your website ( the store ). I only wanted to ask is it work in the Middle East ?

Have you redeemed your iTunes card to an account associated with an Apple ID?
Once you have your iPad associated with an Apple ID AND you have an account with a credit card associated with the same Apple ID AND you have some 'store credit' (from redeeming your iTunes card) then purchases use the store credit before they charge the credit card, so you should be ok!
Personally, I use 'store credit' as a way to monitor whether or not there have been any 'unauthorised' purchases because as soon as the store credit is zero, the security code from the credit card is needed for further purchases! It does mean that I have sometimes to top up store credit before making a purchase, but 'better safe than sorry'!

Hello I have a problem with the iPhone from China apple store

Hello
I have a problem with the iPhone and I do not know who to turn to.
I bought an iphone 4 in the Apple Store in Shanghai, and it has a bug! I changed the regional settings to my native language, but the search in safari goes site the Google.cn.
What should I do? On this particular no one says. This is clearly a bug!
Also in my phone no youtube. I know that youtube banned in China, but I'm not in China now!
Why do not you strapped local restrictions on the location of the phone??

eh...
The reason I bought the iphone in China - the price is reduced by 50% сompared to the price in Russia.
I just thought that these restrictions are useless. And Apple should remove them when you change the region ...
