I phone locked.What can I do ?
My name is David.Recently I received an iphone 4S from my uncle who lives,in USA,California.Unfortunately the iphone is locked by Verizon.What can I do? My carrier is Cosmote.Can you help me?
You will need to contact Verizon and ask them to unlock the phone so you can use it with another carrier.
Wirreless carriers reserve the right to unlock, or not unlock a devcie, to be used with another carrier.

My phone is showing SIM Locked, what can I do to unlock it?
Hi Tomastiger,
Lets get your sim unlocked! Which iPhone do you have? Is the device asking for the PUK or PIN code?
Thanks,

Hi I bought an iPhone from uk and now I'm in Cyprus and it's lock, what can I do?
Contact the carrier in the UK that the phone is locked to and put in an unlock request.
This is the only thing that you can do and the carrier to which the phone is locked to are the only ones that can unlock the phone for you - nobody else can.
Contact the UK carrier. -

Every time one of my email addresses doesn't work on my mail app, due to wrong password or whatever, it deletes all of the contacts form my phone. What can I do to stop this from happening?
I have tried deleting the account and it deletes all my contacts. I have verizon and even using back up assistant, it says the contacts are there but they aren't. The only way i can find a contact is if I start to type a name in and new text but once i sent the new text, the name disappears and it just shows the number. Siri nor the address book don't recognize any contacts at all.I cant find any reciept in my email or in my husbands email. I am going to attempt to call and speak to someone who can help me because this was not my fault except trying to be normal and update my phone!

I'm trying to update my iPhone and I go to ``settings'' then ``general'' and at that point I should see ``software update.'' But it's simply not there, that line does not exist in my phone. What can I do?
This featue is only available on iphone running ios 5 or later.
Update as you always have, via itunes.
Read the article you linked. the entire article, not just the first part.

My mac OS X 10.4 doesn't support new I tunes 10 it needs a SO X 10.5 or higher. My new I phone G4 requires a higher version. I can't download my existing library to my new phone. What can I do?
upgrade to at least OS X 10.5.x or, if your machine supports it, OS X 10.6.
you should still be able to get 10.5. from Apple but it'll run you about $ 130. OS X 10.6. costs $ 30. -
My friend bought an iphone 5 with ios6 and he was not told it was carrier locked. what can he do?
My friend bought an iphone 5 with ios 6 installed and he was not told it was carrier locked. what can he do since he doesn't know the carrier?
And there lies his problem.
As I said, call AppleCare and they will let him know which carrier it is locked with. Then he needs to contact that carrier and see what their unlocking process is and if he qualifies. If he doesn't he needs to return the iPhone and get his money back. -
i bought iphone 4 but previous woners can't provide me icloud id and passward so my iphone locked what can i do?
You could speak with the police since they sold you a device you can't use and refuse to give you your money back or cooperate so you can use it. Without the previous owner erasing the device and removing it from their account you will not be able to use it. No one else can help and there's no way around this.

Everytime I try to use my phone a square comes round the app and Siri talks to me so I can't use my phone. What can I do ?
Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Voice Over > and switch it off.
To tap, you'll need to double-tap. To scroll, use three fingers and drag. -

I had an appointment this morning with Apple to try and solve the problem with my lock button ranomly not working anymore and a few hours before my appointment with the Apple store i was using my phone and my screen randomly went black and stopped working. And the p.roblem now i cant use it. I tried restarting the phone but I can't restart it due to my lock button not working so i need help with a solution on what i can do. I missed my appointment today because i could no longer use my phone and i'm now stuck using my laptop. I did also try connecting it to my MacBook but the screen was still unresponsive and black. I rescheduled my appointment to Monday to see what is wrong with my button and screen but in the meanwhile i would like to know if there is anything i can do or if i would just have to wait until monday and take it in to Apple. Any help would be really appreciated as i am phonelss for now until i take it in to Apple in a few days. Thanks.

What is going on with my phone and what can I do to fix the problem?
This is the second time this has happened to my phone. For some random reason, it decides to shut off on me. No matter how many times I press the home button or the lock button, it still acts as if it's powered off. It makes no sound, nor any vibrations. Like I said, it acts as if it were powered off but if someone else were to call my phone, you would still here a ringing as opposed to being sent directly to voicemail, all while my phone continues to remain dead. Last time this happened, it didn't end up working until the next day. FYI, battery power is still running while this is going on, and if I were to connect my phone to the charger, it would still remain dead... Why is my phone reacting this way, and what can I do to keep this from happening?
Hi there harely95,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Issue not resolved
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.
