Iam from India. my brother is in new jersey. he is going to get one iphone 5s for me in t mobile contract free . I wanna know whether I can use it here as well as whether I can claim warranty here or not. pls let me know

You'll have to consider the benefits; is the lack of LTE and the need to send the phone overseas (THus be without a phone for that length of time) really worth the 250$ difference you'd save?
ME personally I'd rather fork over that amount of money and get the quality of phone I purchased, and not have it at half strength.

I bought an iphone6 T-Mobile Contract free from US. Can i gift it to my parents in India. Will a nano-SIM card with any Indian carrier work? Will my international warranty still be valid?

I bought an iphone6 T-Mobile Contract free from US. Can i gift it to my parents in India.?
Will a nano-SIM card with any Indian carrier work? They will have to just toss away the T-Mobile SIM and put in nano sim for any Indian carrier, right?
Will my international warranty still be valid? In case of any repairs/services, can that be done in India? Will these services be charged while the phone is in warranty period?

If the phone is purchased in the united states, warranty service will need to be provided in the united states.

Return the phone and get your money back. That phone was hacked and is now permanently damaged.

How can i change my iphone mode from t-mobile contract free to unlocked?

i actually was cheated from the online assistant!
I always want an unlocked iphone 5s.Last time i was consulting the online agent, he or she recommanded me to choose t-mobile contract free mode.He said as long as its a nano sim card. it will work with any service
then i took it as he suggested. today when i was asking an online agent again that if there is any kind of iphone5s works with foreign sim card. after a while, i got that the t-mobile contract free modes only work with t-mobile service within US but you can use foreign sim card when you are abroad.
Is that a kind of cheating to make me just purchase it in the first place?
I am really disappointed with the apple agents wether they are not honest or not professional. I think i am going to be extremely careful next time even with those seemingly official enough company
Now does anyone know how i can change the funny t-mobile contract free mode to unlocked??
Thanks much!

Well the thing is Tmobile has to be the UNLOCKED version then. I have tmobile and I bought an Iphone 5s from Apple TMOBILE. Payed the 600$ and popped in my existing sim. I had no dealings with tmobile for my phone and have no contract. I should be able to go to ATT sign up and pop it in to work. So the Tmobile version is the "unlocked" version right now and a sim is included for convience.
If you notice the bottom of the phones it says it will only work with the carrier you choose. Which is a clever way to word it. Which leads me to believe its unlocked. I payed full price so they cant "lock" it.

I transferred data from my Macbook Pro to my Mac mini but it forced me to make a new user for my old data. How do I transfer my music, pics, and docs from the "old" user to the new user (so that I only have one user instead of 2?)

Unless you transfer the files from Setup Assistant, Migration Assistant creates a new user with the data.
To transfer the files to your first user, you have to log on this new user, and copy all your files to /Users/Shard folder. This is a folder where you can put the files you want to share between two or more users, and all users can read and write in it.
After copying the files, go to your first user, open /Users/Shared folder, and copy the files to your user folders. If you migrated applications, you must know that they are stored in a common folder (/Applications), so you don't have to transfer them. To open /Users/Shared folder, open Go menu (in the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type the folder

iPhones purchased from the online Apple Store in Australia will be unlocked. To the best of my knowledge, unlocked iPhone are not available from the physical Apple Stores at this time, though you can call the Apple Store in Melbourne and inquire.
Note that the warranty on iPhones is not international, so if you purchase an iPhone in Australia and it needs service, you would have to ship the iPhone to someone in Australia to take or send to Apple for service and then ship it back to you.
Regards.

Is iphone 5s t mobile contract free able to pick up any gsm sim in india?

i want to buy iphone 5s t- mobile contract free. i live in india is it able to support vodafone gsm in india or any other gsm sim card.

There are conflicted information in this forum. The contract free T-mobile 5s is not "unlocked" in US, it is supposed to be unlocked for overseas GSM. However, it is not clear whether you need to activate it on T-mobile first and wait for 40 days for unlock code to unlock it before you can use it overseas.
I contacted both Apple and T-mobile multiple times. None of them answered question with a clear answer.
The best way to confirm this is to purchase the 5s from the Apple Store. Remove the T-mobile SIM before you turn 5s on and replace the SIM with your international SIM. Turn it on and go through the initial setup to see if the iPhone is lock or not.
If it is locked, simply return to the Apple store with full refund in 30 days. Since Apple is not answering the question, why not try it yourself on their dime?

Does T-Mobile contract-free iphone 5s works in India

Does T-Mobile contract-free iphone 5s works in India, as i wish to carry one for my bro.

The clearest answer is - UNLOCKED iphone 5S is not sold yet in US. Same was with 5 or 4S when they came out. Usually Apple does not start selling unlocked models for few month. Will it work or it will not in Argentina or France - no one here knows until they actually try, but it is not unlocked I assure you.
You however can get unlocked 5c, cause it is not actually new model, just colored 5.

Can i use iPhone T-mobile contract free version outside USA with any carrier?

Hello everyone,
I am planning to purchase the iPhone 6 via Apple online store, on or after september 19th.
I am living in Sri Lanka and obviously we do not have AT&T or any other service providers listed, here. My only option would be to buy the T-mobile 'contract-free' version if I am not willing to wait till Apple releases an unlocked 'sim-free' version within next few months. Therefor, I want to confirm and make sure that I can use the iPhone T-Mobile version with any carrier of my choice and is not locked only for T-mobile and can be used here in Sri Lanka.
Hoping for your kind support
Regards,
Nimasha

Hey Nicolas,
I had the same question, so I went to the Apple chat, and I asked the same, 'cause I need an iPhone to works in South America and Europe as well.
so what the person on the chat answered me was that the T-mobile cellphone comes Unlocked, so you can use it anywhere.
I Guess I can get it and now.

HT3939 iPhone 5s T-Mobile contract free version from Apple Store: LOCKED or UNLOCKED?

If i buy an iPhone 5s T-Mobile contract free version from Apple Store will it be LOCKED or UNLOCKED? Can i use it Europe with a local carrier? Cannot find a clear answer to this question anywhere! Thank You!

According to a chat with an Apple support representative, the iPhone 5s is not yet sold fully unlocked. But it is unlocked for international use. This means that it won't work on any GSM carrier in the US other than T-Mobile. But it will work with any GSM carrier outside of the US using a SIM card. You should make sure the frequency bands are compatible with your local carrier.

Hi Destiny
Thank for contacting the Apple Online Store. I hope you are well. How may I assist you?
I placed an order for 2 iPhone 5s
this is the T-Mobile version, so I'm paying full upfront price... almost $2000 altogether
My uderstanding is that these phones are factory unlocked, but the wording at the website is a little misleading. I want to verify that they are indeed fully factory unlocked because I plan on uisng them with AIO Wireless
This may not be the option for your then. These iPhones come preinstalled with a T-mobile for use domestically and can be used internationally with a local GSM carrier.
You would need to contact AIO wireless directly to see if it would be compatible.
so they aren't truly unlocked?
They are unlocked in the sense that they can be used internationally. I can see how that would be confusing. The option you are looking for would be the contract free and SIM free iPhone 5s.
We have not released the unlocked iPhone at this time.
We do have the iPhone 5c unlocked available. Have you considered that option?
I have an iPhone 5, so the 5c isn't attractive for me
Do you have any idea when the iPhone 5s would be released contract free and SIM free?
At this time we do not have a release time frame. I'm sorry I don't have more information available for you.
I recommend checking apple.com/hotnews for updates on it's release.
ok, thank you.
You're welcome. I apologize for the confusion.
Is there anything else I can assist you with?
This is all, thank you. I will cancel my order.
Do you know how to cancel your order?
yes
Excellent! It has been a pleasure.
Thank you for choosing the Apple Store. If you have any additional questions, please chat with us again.

We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?

To clarify for anyone who is still having any problems doing this.
1. Unlock your phone with the carrier ( I know the process will work if it is jail broken but I am assuming you dont want to void the warranty on your phone) NOTE: even if you purchased the phone outright at Wal-Mart it is still locked to ATT so you will have to unlock the phone. If it's already unlocked skip to step 2. This works and will work even if you update the phone.
1a Here is the link to unlock a ATT iphone. Simply follow the instructions https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
2. Get a T- mobile SIM. Even if you don't want the service, if you feign interest, they will send you one for free or 99cents. If you need it now you can get one at a T-mobile store too.
3. Once you have both your Straight talk SIM and your T-mobile SIM follow these instructions:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFFf5uqk18M
4. If you have any remaining questions look at all the responses posted previously on this thread or check out the Howard Forums Wiki: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/Straight_Talk_iPhone
Everything should work flawlessly at this point. If not let me know and I'm happy to help when I can. I hope this makes doing this very easy for everyone in the future. God Bless -J

Also, Verizon is not a GSM Network and does not use SIM cards from my understanding.
Your understanding is a bit out of date. Verizon is a CDMA/LTE carrier. All Verizon phones that work on the 4G LTE network, which would exclude all but the most basic of phones, use SIM cards. All Verizon iPhones since the 4S have a SIM slot (though the one on the 4S was only used for global roaming).
