I have a verizon iphone4s and I am trying to make it work with my t-mobile carrier.

My cousin bought an iphone 4s at the apple store and is giving it to me as a gift. She used the iphone 4s with Verizon and now the iphone's carrier appears to still be ON verizon.
The iphone says it's not activated and tells me to contact my carrier.... Any clue on what I need to do?
Do i need to factory unlock it? Or buy a gevey and it will automatically work?
Thanks for your time!

When Verizon unlocks an iPhone 4S, they are, as Chris has already stated, only unlocking the GSM side of the phone for interntational use. The phones will not work on other GSM carriers in the U.S. I have no idea what you mean by the phone was "bought universal". If you had wanted an unlocked phone, you should have purchased one from Apple. The phone you have will not work on TMobile in the U.S. without resorting to things that are illegal such as the Gevey SIM.

The latest Apple driver support begins with the MP 171.
Here is Ricoh's official driver download page specifically for the Afico MP 161. Note that new drivers for this device were released on Aug 2, and include Lion and Mountain Lion.
Hopefully, this will solve your device issues.

I have an iphone 4 and want to know if it will work with my polaroid pogo printer

i have an iphone 4 and want to use my polaroid pogo with it, can I?

Printing to a Pogo via "AirPrint" defeats the portable aspect of these cool zink printers.
If this iPad is supposed to replace laptops in this, ”post-PC era,” then why doesn't it support all of the basic Bluetooth protocols or stacks or whatever they're called that my Mac supports?

HT1846 I have a windows 7, and i'm trying to make my Mac's Magic Mouse work on my PC... do i need to download this BootCamp? or should i install a driver especially made for Windows 7?

Is there any way that i can have my Magic Mouse to run on my PC (Windows 7)?
i am looking for drivers online, but i don't want to install something that Apple may not approve of. I'm sure if there were such a driver, then Apple would have provided it; unless i have missed something.

when one makes the bootcamp driver disc in bootcamp on osx it builds a cd with apple tested drivers for the hardware for windows

Ive paid $$ for the games and then more $$ within the games via iTunes for in game purchases and desperatly want the games on the 4 with the levels that I have reached on the 3!
Can anyone help!! Please!!!! My Smurfs and Animals are starving Hahahaha

Mate, it's good to hear that you have gotten the iPhone 4 but sorry to burst your bubbles. Not all games can have the "saved" data ported over.
Normally when you save a game in iPhone, the memory used is in the flash memory of the device. Those that can be ported over, reason is due to the data being saved over the air and when you logged in on a new device, it recognises you via the userID.
Maybe you can try to backup your iPhone 3, and restore the file onto your iPhone 4. Not too sure if that would brick your phone though.

I lost contacts on iMac. I still have them on iPhone4 and/of iPad. How do I restore them on my iMac?

I lost contacts on iMac. I still have them on iPhone4 and/of iPad. How do I restore them on my iMac? I think I also have everything in the iCloud, but I am afraid that after syncing tonight I have lost everything.... I want to restore on my iMac....HELP!

Download the free app My Contacts Backup to your phone. This will back up your contacts as an attachment to an email. Send this email to yourself, open it on your iMac and double-click the attachment to import the contacts into Address Book.

I have Verizon FIOS and I am trying to connect an Air Port Express to my Directv

I have Verizon FIOS and I am trying to connect my Air Port Express to my DirecTV. My iMac does not see the airport express, even though the light is a solid green and connected to my HD-DVR. Any ideas?

Assuming your modem is wireless use Airport Utility to configure the AEX to extend an existing network. The modem's wireless router should be configured to allow its network to be extended.

Go back to that article, ignore the instructions for updating it wirelessly, scroll down, and follow those for updating it from iTunes on a computer.

Apple can't/won't help you:
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2526 - "... Apple does not have a process to track or flag lost or stolen product..."
Texas Mac Man links on lost/stolen i-devices - https://discussions.apple.com/message/18781718
Contact the police about the theft. Change passwords on any accounts used with the device. Contact the carrier about discontinuing service and possibly blocking future contracts with the phone. Shop for a new phone.

I have an iphone 4s and the text i send to a friend with a galaxy 4s he is not receiving any help?

i have an Iphone 4S and the text i send to a friend with a galaxy 4s he is not receiving. Any help?

Then it's sending as SMS and not iMessage (that's good) so deleting the contact probably didn't help. It also seems iMessage isn't redirecting his texts as he's not used and apple device on the account previously. Can he receive a picture message from you instead? Does he receive texts from other apple devices? (iPhones,pods/pads) try sending a text through Verizon online using your account on a web browser. If it is also blocked then it confirms the issue is with his device, well at least points you there rather than guessing if it's yours or his or both. There's some ideas, let me know- Joe

Have you tried re-booting your WiFi router ? It may seem OK on your PC, but a re-boot may help.
