I was given an iphone 4 while in France, how can I use it with an o2 (Uk) simcard?

Thanks for any help!

Contact the original owner and ask for the carrier it was activated on.  See if that carrier will unlock an off contract phone (I've had experience in 4 European countries (non France) and all the carriers would unlock after contract). It may be EU law, don't know.

    New iPad Air 2 (December 2014) with a persisting blank screen. Support site suggests a restore after turning off 'Find my iPhone' on the device. How can I do this with a blank screen?

    Thanks JimHdk,
    After a little more searching across various online resources I was able to cure it by holding down the home button and the on/off button for 10 seconds to restart it and it all came back with a clear screen.

    Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

    According to this document, T-Mobile in the Netherlands does not support Personal Hotspot, only Vodafone does, thus that setting will not appear for you.

    Next time before having to pay this regular Microsoft tax, include your iTunes library with your computer's backup per the instructions included with this link.

    iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod, iPad, or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
    First you need to re-authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so. With your iPad connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPad.

  • Hi, I purchased a non contract iphone 4 32gb whilst on holiday in america, how can I use it with my O2 microsim

    Please can anyone advise how I can use my non contract american iphone 4 32gb back in U.K. using my contract O2 microsim, I was told by the guy in the store that I could use my O2 sim?

    You can't, a non contract US phone means just that it is not tied to a fixed term contract.  It is still locked to AT&T and they have never officially unlocked a phone.  You need to see if there is some way you can return it and get money back.

  • I have a work Itunes and a home Itunes how can I use both with my Iphone?

    I have an Itunes on my work computer and another on my home, but my new Iphone will only allow me to add music from one of the Itunes.  I have purchased music on both Itunes how can I get this to work?

    You can only sync with one computer. If you have the same account on both computers you can transfer all of your purchased music to one of them, then sync with that one.

  • I purchased a iphone i USA. How can i use this iphone in india with vodafone.

    I Purchased a iPhone 5s in USA. How can I use this phone in India with Vodafone.
    <Edited By Host>

    First, the iPhone would need to be unlocked. That would depend on where you bought it. Next, the North American phone would not work with all of the networks outside of the US. Also, the warranty for the device is only good in the US, so if you have a problem with the phone, you would need to bring it back to the US to an Apple Store. Where did you purchase the phone?

  • How can i use localization of my iphone?

    how can i use localization of my iphone?

    Do you mean how can you use Find my iPhone?  To be able to turn it on, on an iPhone, go to settings-iCloud-then sign in to your apple account if you haven't already-then select find my iPhone.  Then go to privacy-location services-then turn on find my iPhone.  You can then view your devices location by downloading an apple app called find my iPhone on the App Store.  From a computer, you can log into iCloud.com and select find my iPhone in which you can locate your device.
