I have an iPad 2 without a phone simcard, can I connect my iPhone to the iPad and use this as my cell connection?
Thanks

Not if it's a first gen iPhone, the personal hotspot/internet tethering is only possible on the iPhone 3G and later (and then oly if your carrier supports it) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3574

hI, bella
I also met this issue a few days ago and I finally find out how to transfer music from iPod to computer:
1. Plug your iPod in and wait for the computer to recognize it.
2. Open up 'My Computer' and under 'Devices With Removable Storage', double click and open apple iPod.
3. Click on 'Tools' at the top of the window and drag down to 'Folder Options'.
4. Under the 'View' tab, find the subfolder called 'Hidden files and folders'.
5. Select the option 'Show hidden files and folders'.
6. Click 'OK'.

Can I use a local sim card with my Australian bought iPhone and iPad?

I bought my iPhone 4 and iPad2 in Australia. I'm travelling to South Korea and Japan for two weeks. Can I use a local sim card with my Australian bought iPhone? If so, can I still link my iPad2 to my iPhone4 with a personal hot spot?

Only if your phone is officially unlocked. Is it?

Can a family mobile sim card can fit in a iphone 4s

can a family mobile sim card work in a iphone 4s

The ip4S uses a micro sim. If the phone is unlocked you should be able to insert sim on any network

HT6154 Hi there, i have bought a iphone 4 from graiglist , and when i turned the phone on , its asking for the Apple ID for the previous owner which i do not have, but i have my own apple ID . WHAT CAN I DO TO SOLVE THE ISSUE. YOUR HELP PLEASE

**** there,

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

How can I connect my iPhone and my iPad for FaceTime

Every time I try to send iMessages it says not delivered.

FaceTime and Messages have their own set of settings which should be set up similarly. To send and receive iMessages and FaceTime calls on the iPad you have to setup an Apple ID. If both devices are using the same Apple ID iMessages should sync up and you can send yourself a message but it will appear duplicated on both devices. FaceTime will require each device to be set to it's own number or email address if you want to make calls between your devices.

Basic Airport card can't connect to Wi-Fi using WPA encryption

I have a Powerbook Pismo 500mhz using OS 9.2.2 and Airport 2.0.4 software with a basic Airport card installed in it. For over a month I was able to connect to my resorts wi-fi network by putting in there Key 1 password and I was connected just fine. The other day they changed the password and upgraded there software from WEP to WPA, Now no matter what I do I can't get it to accept my password. The password is 24 letters long and every time I enter it I get "An error occurred while trying to join the selected airport network" .
I have tried everything from putting the password in quotes, to starting it with $, to even using Wep Key maker. In fact they call it a PassPhrase, not a Password. There is no options to change the encryption with Airport 2.0.4. I have looked all over the net and this is my last resort. Please help. If you wish you can email me directly at [email protected]
Powerbook Pismo 500 Mac OS 9.2.x Basic Airport card, 768 ram, 30 GB HD

I've been having horribly similar problems trying to get my Mac to join up with a non-Apple Wi-Fi network running WPA.
I suspect you are probably entering the WPA password into the old WEP password field on your Powerbook. If you are, that will never work. You need to have the system asking you for a WPA password not a WEP one, and if you're software isn't current you won't be given the option.
Try this - you need to get your OS level and airport drivers much more current. I was experiencing the same error message as you when I was on OSX 10.3, which I have a feeling is the first level of OSX that properly supports WPA. Move up to 10.4 if you can. Also get the latest Airport drivers installed. Henry B may be able to give you the link, or you will find it embedded in another post.
If you are as unlucky as me you may find that even this doesn't fix your problem. I'm now getting the message that my password is not accepted - a step forward but not a cure.
If you do manage to get it going (and all advice is that the OSX upgrade and new drivers usually do the trick), let me know what your fix was!
By the way, things also seem to work better if you have your SSID broadcast by the Access Point.

How can i activate iphone 4 on ios6 without a sim card?

how can i activate iphone 4 on ios6 without a sim card?i upgraded mu iphone to ios but the iphone is factory locked so i can not activate it with a sim card because i dont have the original sim card.is another way to do it?

You cannot do anything without a sim for the carrier the iPhone is locked to. With that you can attempt to restore using the recovery mode described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 but note that if the previous owner installed an Apple ID and password and turned on Settings > iCloud > Find My Phone, you will never get it to work without the Apple ID and password. That is the Activation Lock, an anti-theft protection system.

My Next 3G SIM Card doesnt fit my new iphone 4. What am I to do?

My Next 3G SIM Card doesnt fit my new iphone 4. What am I to do?

The iPhone 4 requires a micro sim. You can either try cutting yours or seeing if your provider offers micro sims. There are instructions on the net about how to cut full size sims, as well as tools to do so.

How to connect my ipad mini wifi without a SIM card

How do I connect my ipad mini cellular to wifi without a sim card

If it says there is no sim card installed it either can't find one physcially, or the card moved and lost contact or has failed. A new sim card can be obtained form your Mum's cell/mobile carrier if needed easily.
However this is irrelevant to whether or not the iPad can join a Wifi network. Its 2 different things.
For now ignore the Sim card message and just try to connect to her Wifi network. It is independent and should function regarldess of the sim card status.

I have two iPhones, one is a 4s and the other is a 3g. I have not used my 3g in some time now. I recently restored it but I cannot use it without a sim card, it says i have to "activate it."

I have two iPhones, one is a 4s and the other is a 3g. I have not used my 3g in some time now. I recently restored it but I cannot use it without a sim card, it says i have to "activate it." I cannot place my iPhone 4s sim card in it (too small), and i do not want to get a new contract or sim card for an iPhone that i do not ues very much.

Thanks for your help, but i cannot borrow a noral sim card now, my family has all up graded to iPhone 4s's, i have done this before, but one of my family had the same type of iphone so i could use theirs. Now i am the only one who still holds on to their old phone... I am not sure about buying an adapter...

Hi Mostafa sanad,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you may want to use your iPad as a personal hotspot. Please read over the attached article for information on the process.
