I'm from the US, travelling in Europe, and I'm getting "no service"

I'm travelling in Europe, had my iPhone 4s enabled for international calling, landed and I can't get service for voice. Verizon told me i need a "sim"  in the slot ..is this true?

    Hi there vanekji!
I hope your travels in Europe are going well thus far. Now, I want to make it even better by getting your phone up and running again. The iPhone 4S does require the activation of a global SIM card for it to work abroad. Here's how you can determine if you have a SIM installed http://vz.to/15b7xNX . If so and you're looking to grab some coverage, please don't hesitate to reach out to our global support team at 908-559-4899. Additionally, utilize this tool for extra help during your travels http://bit.ly/xZd3pS .

  • HT1688 Traveling in Europe and iphone 5 has NO SERVICE.  I have had other iPhones and other cell phones in the past and never had this problem

    I am traveling in Europe and for the first time in over 10 years I am not able to use my cell phone.  This is my third iPhone and I have never had any trouble in the past in connecting as soon as off the plane!!!!  I have tried everything to fix it.  Chatted with AT&T and couldn't help me either.  Resetted settings, network settings, turned off and rebooted at least ten times.  Removed Sim card and still NOTHING.  NO SERVICE and SEARCHING is all I can get.

    Tracy, first you should restart the iPhone by holding down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo.  This process could solve some of your problems.  Also make sure you have the latest update, go into  our settings>general>software update.  On the wifi issue try restarting your router, if you are still having problems try resetting your network settings, go into your settings>general>reset then tap reset network settings. 
    The battery issues seems normal, the battery will not last 24 hours. 

  • I have the iPhone 5 and iPad 3. I will travel to Europe and would like to know if I need a current covertidor 220-110 for my equipments. I have an adapter, but that did not change the flow and do not want to risk it. Thank you.

    All you need is a physical plug adapter, not a voltage converter. All Apple chargers work on any voltage from 110 - 240 worldwide.

  • TS3274 I recently traveled to Europe and purchased a one month subscription (as this was the only time amt available) and now am back...how do I go back to using 3G?

    I recently traveled to Europe and subscribed to the European 3G for one month (as this was the minimum amount of time to purchase).  I am back in states and it seems to be slowing my ipad down distinctly.  How do I unsubscibe to the European 3G?

    Hi Mike,     Should not be necessary to unsubscribe to the European 3G provider - you just need to remove the micro sim card from your Ipad.   If by chance you find out that your Ipad is "locked" into this European provider then you will need to contact them to unlock.      You then need to sign up to a local broadband internet provider to buy another 3G micro sim card on a plan, insert this into your Ipad and set up again.    NickGS

  • My iphone 4S has problem in making and receiving the calls. While making the call , call fails and netwrok disappears. Like wise no voice is heard for incoming calls. This happened after return from the overseas travel.

  • HT4341 from the apple travel adapter kit what adapter do you use for thailand

    from the apple travel adapter kit what adapter do i use for thailand

    I've used Apple a few times in the past for 4x6s (with iPhoto) and was really happy with the quality. There are other things about the service that frustrate me though. The shipping time was all over the place. Sometimes it would only take a week or two, other times over a month. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get Order Prints to work for iPhoto or Aperture anymore, so I'm looking for an alternative as well. Something that has an Aperture plug-in would be extra cool, if that exists...
    In the meantime, I've just been printing at Wal-Mart or the local camera shop (when they have a sale). The quality isn't as good -- less definition in the prints -- but the order is always ready to pick-up within a couple of hours at the most (which beats getting no prints at all through Apple's service). And the nice thing is, the pictures are printed and boxed in the order they're uploaded. None of this "we print the smallest files first, as they download" silliness from Apple that causes you to have to sort all of your photos again while referencing the images on your computer if you want to put them in chronological order. Does Apple really expect me to believe their printers are just waiting to print my order the split second each image is downloaded? There's no staging process involved whatsoever? Give me a break. I love Apple, but things like this are so backwards from the whole "it just works" mantra that they love to use. Sorry for the rant! I'm a little frustrated with Apple's printing services at the moment (as I'm sure you can tell).
    Anyway, you can always give your local Wal-mart a shot. Just do a small order and see how it turns out.

  • I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
    On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

    I am trying to reinstall Dreamweaver CS3 from the CD after having computer issues.  Now getting error "You can only install one Adobe product at a time.  Please complete the other installation before attempting to install ......."  There is no other Adobe product installing.  I have used the Adobe Cleaner Tool many times and uninstalled other Adobe Products but neither has worked.  I have uninstalled/reinstalled this CD version of Dreamweaver several times when changing computers and after having computer issues. A google search of the problem suggested it may be an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues.  Please help.

    Absolutely not. You are misinterpreting things. The activation check never happens when just running the installer, only much later. It means what it says - there is another "install" pending/ active on your system, meaning somewhere there is an (invisible) process still blocking things. Either way, since you haven't provided any real technical info, we can't advise specifically. if you are on Windows, you may want to check your task manager and terminate any setup.exe and msiexec.exe processes plus potentially may need to manually fix/ delete some registry keys. For anything beyond that you will have to be much more specific.

  • I am trying to import cr2files from the camera into lightroom 5 and keep getting an error message saying Lightroom can not read the files and therefore will not import them.  Has anyone had a similar problem-.thanks

    I am trying to import cr2files from the camera into lightroom 5 and keep getting an error message saying Lightroom can not read the files and therefore will not import them.  Has anyone had a similar problem….thanks

    If you are having the same problem, i.e. a disk permission problem, open your favorite search engine and search on, "change disk permissions", and I think you'll find plenty of information on how to fix the problem. This is a Lightroom forum. Your problem is with your operating system. There is no sense in rewriting instructions that are already available if you do a simple search.

    Take a look at Apple's document for authorizations -> iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization.
    You can deauthorize all computers from iTunes. All you have to do is click iTunes Store, click your account name in the upper right corner of iTunes, then deauthorize all.

  • I accidentally dragged the Lion download from the dock onto my desktop and it disappeared in a puff. This seems to have halted the download as it is now 8 hours since purchase and stuck at 1.75gigs. Help anyone - please?

    I accidentally dragged the Lion download from the dock onto my desktop and it disappeared in a puff. This seems to have halted the download as it is now 8 hours since purchase and has stuck at 1.75gigs. Could anyone advise please?

    The icon in the dock is NOT the file itself.  You simply removed the dock icon.  Go into your Applications folder and you'll find "Install Mac OSX..." and you have what you want.

  • I have made a burn folder with photos exported from I-photo.  It now shows in information, that the date is created and modified is different from the original digitized date.  How can I get the original date to show in the info from Finder?

    I have made a burn folder with photos exported from I-photo.  It now shows in information, that the date  created and modified is different from the original digitized date.  How can I get the original date to show in the info from Finder?

    The Finder reports File information. The date and time of the photo are in the Photo's Exif metadata. The Finder has no awareness of this. All photos apps on any system do.

  • If I reinstall my FCE 3.5 from the original discs, will I be able to get the updates from Apple?

    System has begun crashing (dropping-windowshade, message to shut down computer) during attempted capture or render.  Hardware has been checked out and is OK.  Other OS functions seem to be working.  I have a bootable clone from the most recent period of good function, and also my original install disc for FCE. 
    If I need to try reinstalling FCE, are the updates still available from Apple?
    If I can't restore FCE 3.5, is there anything I can use with my OS 4.11 MBP that will be able to access my FCE 3.5 project files?  My 3+TB of underwater clips, stored on external drives as QT movies? 
    Any guidance appreciated.  This forum helped me out a lot when I first started - didn't expect the end to come so soon & hope there's a feasible workaround!
    Thanks,
    Sharron S.

    If I reinstall my FCE 3.5 from the original discs, will I be able to get the updates from Apple?
    Yes, via Software Update
    Here is an article on how to Uninstall FCE HD  You could also use  FCS Remover (note there are different versions depending on what version of OS X you have - be sure to select the correct version)
    If I can't restore FCE 3.5, is there anything I can use with my OS 4.11 MBP that will be able to access my FCE 3.5 project files?
    - FCE project files - only usable with FCE or FCP.  Not iMovie or FCP-X
    - All your clips, however, can be used with almost anything including iMovie, FCP, FCP-X, QuickTime, etc.
