If i buy an iPhone 6 in Turkey can it be fixed/upgraded in The United States?

I am currently living abroad in Istanbul, Turkey, but I am an American citizen. My American iPhone 5 has had hardware issues (I have gone through all of the troubleshooting issues many times with many people and we have all decided it truly is a hardware problem) and I have discovered these issues cannot be resolved at the Apple store in Turkey because of some sort of Legal/government issue.  The camera stopped working, I asked to have it fixed (at the normal cost), and they told me they were sorry but there was nothing they could do.  I have been very disappointed with Apple in Turkey and the fact that there is really no help for me here.  So, now I am very wary of buying an iPhone 6 in this country, in case I move back home.  The question is - if I buy an iPhone 6 in Turkey, move back to the states and have a problem with the phone, will Apple be able to fix or handle any issues I have?
Thanks,
Lauren

It is hard to believe that Apple won't fix their product that is faulty.  I would love to have it fixed by a company I trust instead of having to gamble with getting repairs in a foreign country where I don't speak the language.  With most other companies they will honor their product and if there is a problem they can help reach a solution, regardless of where you are.  The phone I currently have is actually a replacement iPhone  from Apple for the exact same issue.  It doesn't leave you feeling satisfied when you buy something, it breaks on its own, you get a replacement, it breaks again on its own, and then company tells you it can't do anything. 
I think disappointed is the correct feeling.

    Just like wjosten said, Change the Password for your AppleID.
    Go to appleid.apple.com and sign in.
    Click on Security and Password. It'll ask you two security questions that you orginal answered.
    On the next page is where you can change the password, change it.
    Now go to icloud.com and sign in, with the new password of course.
    Go to Find My iPhone. Click on the iPhone 5s, even if it's off line.
    Click on Lost Mode and enter a new 4 digit password. One that they won't be able to guess.
    Now it's a paper weight.

  • Had to buy a new PC as the hard disk of the old one broke and lost all purchases, but still have them on the iPhone. How can I sync them back to the new PC in iTunes?

    Had to buy a new PC as the hard disk of the old one broke and lost all purchases, but still have them on the iPhone. How can I sync them back to the new PC in iTunes without losing them?

    You should be able to:
    Backup the device to the new installation
    Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
    Restore the device from the backup
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

  • I buy my Iphone at Malaysia, can i use it in South Korea?

    I buy my Iphone at Malaysia, can i use it in South Korea?
    If can how? if i sign v their telecommunication service, their sim card is same like Malaysia ?

    If you use a credit card from a financial institution in the US,
    with a verified billing address in the US, and ship the order to
    the US. Warranty will be valid only in the US and LTE will not
    work in EU. The low prices you see for some iPhones are
    because the iPhone requires a 2 year contract with a wireless
    carrier in the US. Prices for unlocked (useable with any carrier)
    iPhone 5 are $649 for 16 GB, $747 for 32 GB, and $849 for 64 GB
    + applicable taxes which will vary with shipping destination within
    the US. Still interested?

    Doubt it. The phone will probably be locked to a specific carrier and you will be out of luck. I suggest just buying one brand new instead of someone else.

  • If i buy an iphone 3gs now can I........

    if i buy an iphone 3gs now, can I port a number from a helio phone who's contract expires on the 29th after having received a number for the iphone?

    I'm sure you can. I was in a similar situation when i bought my 1st gen iPhone and ported a number about 2 months after getting the phone. Was not a problem. But I guess it's always best to check with AT&T, but I would call rather than asking in a store. The store personnel seem more interested in selling than answering questions. Twice I've gone into a store thinking it would be easier than calling to do something and twice they put me on the phone with customer service from a phone in the store. DUMB DUMB DUMB

  • If I buy an iphone in USA can I use it in the UK with my UK provider Virgin Mobile

    If I buy an iphone in USA can I use it in the UK with my UK provider Virgin Mobile

    It is advisable to purchase the phone in the country you intend to use it.
    1)  You will have Warranty...
    2)  your phone will work as expected.
    3)  Unless Purchased Directly from Apple as an UNLOCKED device, the iPhones will be Locked to a US Carrier.. usually for a 2 year contract period.

    Sprint is a CDMA carrier, same as Verizon so it will work on CDMA.

  • Hello, I want to know if an iPhone purchased in the United States 4S can operate in France. Thank you for your response.

    hello, I want to know if an iPhone purchased in the United States 4S can operate in France. Thank you for your response.
    (unlocked of course). Sorry for my English but I am French

    The officially unlocked GSM version will work just fine. However, that model is currently only available through Apple's online store, I don't believe stock has reached brick/mortar stores yet, you'll have to check.
    Why do you want to purchase in the US? Your warranty & support will only be valid in the US, and you can purchase officially unlocked iPhones in France that have an EU wide warranty. Doesn't make any sense to me.

    Your Adobe ID was associated with the US instead of Denmark.
    Please go ahead and create a new Adobe ID with the correct country, using the same email address.  You will then be able to make a purchase.
