I have an iPhone 5 from Verizon , can i use it with another carrier
iphone
Contact your current carrier. Only the carrier the phone is locked to can unlock it. There is no 'code'.

My iPhone5 is model A1429.
I purchased it through Verizon within the last 9 months.
Can I just buy a new sim card and replace the Verizon one while I am in Europe for 25 days?After 10 days in Scandinavia, this is what I have learned:
1.) getting the mini or nano sim has been impossible _ in Sweden, Norway and Denmark the carriers I worked with have the old sim cards that they suggest that you trim down to nano size. The one I tried was still too thick to fit in the sim card drawer on my iphone 5.
2.) Verizon was very cooperative and unlocked my phone before I left the USA.
3.) The Verizon plan may be competitive with plans that cover multiple countries in Europe. The pricing is sufficiently confusing that providers are hard to compare, ie. initial plan / sim card purchase amout, voice, data, text send / receive rates, varying monthly or package amounts of mintes and data allowances.
4.) Keeping cellular data off, using wi-fi has mostly kept cellular data usage low, with a few exceptions resulting from data use for either google or i maps and a probable butt-call or mistaken program left on without wi-fi.
5.) I am still going to check out France's rate, but I won't report more if the story stays the same.
Good luck out there.
Thank you to all that responded. Even though the information did not help resolve the problem it gave us traction. -
Hi,
I have an iphone 4 from verizon, the bill and phone is completely payed off, I called and asked them to unlock the phone so I can go with another carrier, and they told me they dont support it and would not do it, and told me I would have to go to a third party. What does that mean and can they do that?You iPhone will not work on T-Mobile since T-Mobile uses GSM.

Did you sign up for a cellular service plan when you purchased the iPhone?
You'll probably have to contact the carrier.
Take a look at this Apple doc for all the details -> iPhone: About unlocking -
IF we buy a contract free iphone 6 from US can we use it in india with airtel or reliance providers?
The Model 1586 / 1524 happens to be the one most compatible with China
http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/
If the phone is primarily for use in China - I would look to getting an unlocked version of that
There are contradicting theories about Sprint for international use - so I would stay away from the Sprint model in the US -
If I buy iphone 5 from Sprint , can i use GSM network out of the US ?

hi there,
you could buy it somewhere in Europe. I know Apple sells them unlocked here in Germany and if I am not mistaken also (among others) in France and Italy.
Yet, as Peter wrote, the warranty can become a problem. Not sure whether a one country only rule goes for the European Community as well though.
As for the price, the 16 GB model costs 679,- € (equals roughly 550 £). Currently there is an average delivery time of 4 to 5 weeks.
LTE connections will not work with Orange or Vodafone. Only EE is about to offer a compatible LTE network. DC-HSPA and regular HSPA+ will work fine.

Hello. I live in Turkey. My friend will go to Russia in 1 week. He will buy iphone 5 from there, can he use it in Turkey ? Will be any problem? Is it unlock sim? Waiting answer as soon as possible please.
You can't. You need a verified billing address in the US in order to order from the US online store. And, whatever you order will only be shipped to a US address.

my iPhoto icon has a cross over it, when i open it, it You have “iPhoto” 9.2.1. you can't use this with this version of OSX? it used to work ?what's gone wrong?
iPhoto 9.2.3 is incompatible with MacOS 10.9.3 Mavericks. If you are running Mavericks on your system you need to update iPhoto to 9.5.1. Only, the problem is, that this version is no longer available at the App Store.
The easiest way to get a compatible iPhoto version in that case would be to upgrade to Yosemite, MacOS X 10.10, and then download the most recent iPhoto version from the AppStore, iiPhoto 9.6, like LarryHN suggested.
If you cannot download iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.6 post back. -

I dropped my phone in some water and I don't have apple care. It's been about a week and I'd rather put the money into fixing my iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5s. But I'm not sure if I can just buy the phone from Apple and still use it with verizon. Can someone help?
Yes, Apple will sell you an iPhone you can use with Verizon.

My contact setting is default for Netherland and want to resync with *228 but because of I'm not active account holder with Verizon, they can't reset it for me.
I bought it from other people and I checked the ESN , its clean one with no contract.
What's my option now? Can apple unlock it? I want to use it for GSM carrier.Only Verizon can authorize it to be unlocked. If they won't, you'll have to sell it to someone who can use it.

I have ordered iphone 5 from verizon. It said ships the 23, when will it arrive?
I have ordered iphone 5 about a couple days ago. When I was done the man said it would SHIP out the 23, does that mean it arrives then or later. If so what date will it arrive?
You ordered it from Verizon. For what completely unintelligent reason would you come to an Apple hosted user to user technical support forum to inquire about your order?
