I want to buy an unlocked iPhone 5c in USA, find a no contract SIM card for USA, and also be able to use it on trips to UK, possibly changing the sim card there. What model should I get and is this possible?

I cannot use T-Mobile, no reception in my house.

Hey samfromshrewsbury,
Thanks for the question. The following purchase page may have the information you are looking for:
iPhone 5c - Buy iPhone 5c in white, pink, yellow, blue, or green - Apple Store (U.S.)
http://store.apple.com/us/buy-iphone/iphone5c
If you buy a SIM-free iPhone, you will need to purchase a GSM-compatible nano-SIM card separately. In the United States, you can purchase such a SIM from AT&T or T-Mobile. When you travel internationally, you can use a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5c from a local GSM carrier. The unlocked iPhone 5c model is A1532 (GSM).
Thanks,
Matt M.

    You can probably be absolutely sure any other source will be carrier locked
    It also appears that only Zain offer unlocking (of all the ME carriers )  in Jordan and Bahrain

  • I need to change my apple ID because I'm changing my email address. I'm worried that when I do, I'll no longer be able to use my first generation apple tv unless I change the apple ID there as well.  Does anyone know how this works??

    I have to change my apple ID because I'm changing my email address. (I have a Comcast address and am switching to U-verse) I'm worried that when I do, I'll no longer be able to use my first generation apple tv unless I change the apple ID there as well. I'm also trying to find out if changing my apple ID is going to interfere with getting my itunes content on my computer and my iphone.  Does anyone know how this works??

    My iTunes appleID is an old defunct e-mail address - it does not have to be functional.
    Do what Winston says to ensure you keep getting correspondence related to that ID.

  • Want to get an iMac.  Budget - $2000.  What model should I get?

    Dear Sir/Madam,
    I am new to iMac.  Want to get one between $1500-$2000.  What kind of software and hardware do I need?  I had a Dell before and AT&T is my Internet service provider.  I also connect the modem to my HDTV for videostreaming.  I have a HP scanjet G3110, do I need to buy a new scanner?  Thanks.
    Best Regards,
    Ann Chan

    Ann,
    I strongly recommend that you should visit an Apple Store and speak to one of the sales consultants there. They can help you choose a machine that suits your needs and answer all of your other questions.
    Without having any idea how you will use the computer answering which iMac is best suited for your needs is impossible. If you don't have an Apple Store in your general area then you can either visit an Apple reseller or call Apple's online store. You can find the online store's phone number by visiting the store's home page and looking at the bottom of the page and clicking Contact Us under Customer Help. Because we don't know what country you are in we can't simply give you the phone number. 

  • I want to buy an unlocked iPhone 5c in America and use it in Europe. On the Apple Website it says, that you can then only use it, by using a GSM-Compatible sim. What is that?

    Hello, I want to buy an iPhone 5c. Because it's cheaper in America, i'd like to buy it there, but it says it requires a GSM-compatible sim! Please tell me what that is!
    Thanks

    Thanks AnaMusic! But I don't need the warranty. All I need is the phone  . But does anyone know what a GSM-Compatible s Sim is?
    Thanks

  • What SSD Should I Get And What Size

    Looking to get an SSD to boot and store applications on, Late 2011 Macbook Pro 15" quad core i7 2.2Ghz.
    Currently looking at: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/SSDEX6G060/
    Tell me what you think.

    I got a 120gb SSD for $120 and after a $20 rebate it came to $100. It makes my origional factory HDD look like a snail. http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=ocz+vertex&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=1 0963169686259943136&sa=X&ei=e81bT6v6L6OJsQLx6fS3DQ&ved=0CHQQ8wIwBQ

  • HT201269 I have lost my iphone and had it blocked but want to restore the data onto a new device when I get one is this possible ?

    My phone was stolen but I am pretty sure it was recently 'backed up' to the cloud when I updated the software how can I find out ?

    I got no idea how you can lose iTunes account. Your purchases will be there as long as it's still available.
    There is no transfer purchases option in iPad. You can transfer purchases when you connect to computer iTunes where you usually sync. 

  • HT4528 I have no battery life in my iphone 5 since the iOS 7 upgrade.  I have completed all suggestions to help increase the battery power and now I can't use my phone more than 4 hours without the battery dying. What is the solution?

    I have no batter in my iphone 5 since upgrading to ios7.  I have talked with verizon techinical support and completed all suggestions to maintain the battery. And by the way, these suggestions are annoying and limit phone use as well as require you to close out each application after use, also turning off wi-fi and blue tooth. I don't need this phone if I can't use the features for which it was purchased! Any ideas?  Is there a fix coming soon for the battery? Can I return my iphone for my old droid?
    Help!

    Hi! I don't what's happened for your phone but, you can have more battery life with turning of Wifi, decries brightness, turn off location service and etc. also you shold use less Free+Much Ads apps becuase they use more battery than paid apps normaly.
    for more informations about battery normal life see here.
    I guess it's not a normal issue. so connect to Apple Care or wait for a better answer...

  • I'd like to try FF4RC. Is there any way to install it and still be able to use my existing FF3.5 version, or, does the ff4 install overlay my existing version?

    I don't want to cause my existing version to be overlayed.

    You can do a custom install of the Firefox 4 RC release and choose a different install location.<br />
    Make sure that you un-tick check boxes (e.g. default browser) and that you do not launch Firefox once the installation has finished to prevent the RC from using your Firefox 3.6 profile.<br />
    Use the profile manager to create a new profile for the RC version.

  • Can I buy an unlocked iPhone 5, activate it in the US and then use it in Italy?

    I am an italian guy studying in the states and I want to buy an unlocked iPhone 5 here in the US, but I’ll go back permanently in Italy in May.
    1429 CDMA model should well with my ATT sim since it covers all GSM features, right?
    Then back in Italy I just need to put in a nano sim from my italian carrier and that’s it…it should work.
    Just one more question….is it better to activate the iPhone with US sim or Italian sim i have on my iPad 4?
    Although I don’t have internet pack in neither of sims, thus I use WiFi to activate it, but i don’t know if it’s better to put italian sim for some reasons i don’t know…Anyway i’ll use another sim back in Italy (sim in iPad is not my “official” number, i just use it for data pack).
    I hope everything is clear and easy to understand.
    Thank you!

    Matter of fact i do not need LTE in US, i just need normal 3G connection, and there shouldn't be any troubles with ATT for that, right?
    Correct, but AT&T will require you sign a contact for new service, whether your phone is unlocked or not. They don't do pay-as-you-go for the iPhone.
    Thus 1429 CDMA won't work with LTE in Italy?
    Only if roaming with Verizon, otherwise, no.
