I've just bought a new unlocked iPhone 5. I've not opened it because its going to be my Christmas present. The thing is that when I put the serial number that appears in the box to see how much apple care time left I have left this message appears

We're sorry, but this serial number is not valid. Please check your information and try again.

Does it have anything to do with not turning the iPhone on and registering it into the system??
Thanks for the prompt answer!

  • My girlfriend just bought me an unlocked iphone 4s but how can i activate it without my card?

    My girlfriend just bought me an unlocked iphone 4s but at the moment I have a standard size sim card and we are in the caribbean. She has a micro sim in her iphone 4. can i activate my phone with her card then change to my card (different carrier) when i get back to our home country (from caribbean)? also ofcause not affecting her phone or sim.
    Basicly I wanna play around with the new phone and siri and stuff before I go back home
    Merry christmas all btw!

    There are SIM cutter's/punches that will cut a full size sim into a micro sim.
    Then you can use the old part of the large sim as a holder/adapter of the newly made micro sim
    as a full size sim.

    Maybe you can find someone or local shop to do it for you
    or

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • HT1338 My G5 PowerPC still works great, but what is the latest OS that is possible.  I just bought a new HP Printer and it is not compatible with OS 10.4.  Is there any hope?

    My G5 PowerPC still works great, but what is the latest OS that is possible.  I just bought a new HP Printer and it is not compatible with OS 10.4.  Is there any hope?

    A PPC G5 cannot run any version of OS X beyond Leopard 10.5.8.
    You should be able to find a Leopard retail (black) install disk on eBay. A grey update disk is machine specific and won't work.

  • How much video record time do I have on iphone6

    how much video record time do I have on iPhone 6

    Your basic limitation is how much free storage space is left on the phone (found in Settings / General / Usage). How much time does each GB equate to depends on how you are shooting. The i6 shoots at 30 fps by default but can be set to do so at 60 fps. Plus you can shoot at regular speed or slow motion. Unfortunately, Apple does not publish exact specs on the device manual, so you'll have to do some test shots and see how much they take and extrapolate from that.
    BTW, the iPhone 6/6+ manual is found here (or you can download it for free in the iBooks app)

  • HT201364 I just bought a new Macbook Pro and I'm not sure if I have the new Mavericks as my OS.

    I just bought a new Macbook Pro and under current operating system, it list OS X 10.9.1 as my current system and says I can update to Mavericks. Isn't 10.9.1 the newest OS for Mac? This is my first Mac and I'm not sure about the way it lists the OS systems in the "about this computer tab". I tried to update to Mavericks and it will not allow me to update, despite meeting all of the above requirements. Can anyone help me?

    Mac OS X 10.9 and 10.9.1 are Mavericks.

  • How do I know how much apple care I have left on my phone?

    Put your serial number into the self-service section of support and it will report the date that it will expire. Go to https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do

  • Lost the ability to see how much ink remains in cartridges

    I have the Officejet 6500A printer.  Used to be able to go to Control Panel, printers & devices, and when I clicked on my printer, I had the ability to open a window that showed how much ink remained in the cartridges.   That option has disappeared.  Any ideas what happened and how to get it back?  Thanks. 

    Rosy,
    I cannot fix Windows 8.1 so you like it -- that is not possible.
    You can, to a large extent control the Charms and even ignore them for the most part.  You can "switch off" live tiles that you do not use but want to keep around (Right Click), you can remove those tiles you just do not want on the Start Screen, and you can add programs that make sense for your setup.
    You can set your TaskBar properties (under Navigation) so the charms do not "pop", if you like.
    You can set your Taskbar properties (under Navigation) so the Desktop shows on Start (and bypasses the Start Screen).
    You can set the Apps category view (explained below) in your Taskbar properties, too.  This changes the view of the Start Screen to a List-like setup, although it is true that the view still contains icons.
    For Windowds 8.1 after the recent 8.1 Update has been applied:
    The "start" menu may be in the corner of your TaskBar as a little white "window pane" >
    Right-Click on the Window Pane to see a modified List format.
    If your setup lacks that Window Pane start, then the following will work regardless:
    Click the Windows key (opens the Start Screen)
    Type anywhere on the screen > a word, a piece of the word, whatever you are looking for >
    Click on the selection to open it
    From the Start Screen you might see a "Down Arrow" in the lower left of the Start Screen >
    Click on the "down arrow" to see a list of your Applications and Programs installed on the computer >
    When that list has been displayed, up next to the word "Apps", see by category >
    Right-Click on by category to change the list format

  • HT1933 Hi I have just bought a book on iBooks but it will not open as it says that it is not of the right format. Please help resolve this.

    Hi I am new to iBooks. I have just downloaded my first book. When I go to open it, it says that the book is either formatted incorrectly or not in a format that iBooks can open. Which is weird as I just bought it from iBooks!
    Help please.

    This just happened to me and iTunes support said they would send to Apple to investigate and reimbursed me for the books. I went back on my iPad and deleted the books and I got an iCloud icon with a down arrow after I deleted. When I clicked on the iCloud icon, the book downloaded and I was able to read it.

  • I need to download Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard because my new computer doesn not have cd media.  When I put my serial number in, it says it is not valid.

    My new computer does not have CD media so I need to download Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard online.  I am able to download but when it prompts me for the serial number, it says my number is not valid.  I have double and triple checked, the serial number has been entered EXACTLY as it says on the box.  What could be causing this?

    Adobe acrobat 9 standard you will need to use a computer which does contain an optical drive and copy the contents to a USB drive.  You can then install from the USB drive on your computer which does not include an optical drive.  Unfortunately if you did not choose download at the time of purchase then I am not aware of any download locations for the installation files.
