If i purchase a i phone 5 in usa will it work in uk

I am on holiday in usa and have ben told i phone 5 wont work in uk is this true

The Iphone is able to get both US and UK GSM bands. That is not the problem; The problem is the carrier lock.
The iPhone5 LTE bands are another, complicated matter, as each country/region uses different ones and there are mind-boggling variations.

If i buy an unlocked iphone 4s in the usa will it work in Australia? and will the warranty be valid in astralia as i have been told that apple have a world wide after sales service but also been told warranties are only valid in the country of purchase

Each country is a separate business. If Apple in Australia fixes a phone purchased in another country it reduces their profit. The good news is that Apple stores will frequently replace phones purchased in other countries under warranty, but they are not required to do so. Some countries are more liberal than others. India never does, for example.
Why don't you just buy it in Australia? The price difference can't be that great.

PLug it into yrou computer to sync/back it up.
Is it set to back up to iCloud now?
Or do you have wifi backup enabled in iTunes?
Plug it in while on wifi and it will automatically back up.

Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken. If that is the case, no support can be provided here.

I have an iPhone from the USA but i want to use it in Ireland. If i get an irish phone plan and number, will it work?

It depends on whether it is a model that supports the proper bands for the provider inIreland and whether it is not locked to a carrier in the US.

Hi , I am planning to buy i phone 6 from japan , will it work in UK.

Hi , I am planning to buy i phone 6 from japan , will it work in UK.

hello gautam
yes. it will work in the UK.
be sure to buy the iPhone 6 or 6 Plus, and buy it an apple store in Japan (do NOT buy it at a network service provider), and when you buy it be sure to tell the salesperson that you want the SIM free version.
if do the above, then the phone will work in the UK.
here are the frequency/band specs (taken from the apple Japan website). as you can see, all major LTE bands are available on this phone.
UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA（850、900、1,700/2,100、1,900、2,100MHz）
GSM/EDGE（850、900、1,800、1,900MHz）
LTE（バンド1、2、3、4、5、7、8、13、17、18、19、20、25、26、28、29）

My iPhone has been badly damaged and I cannot get the screen to work. I want to do a backup to transfer to my new phone but the backup will not work because the phone is locked. Can I input my lock code to the phone via the computer to allow a backup?

Sorry, no.

If I purchase an iPad in USA will it work alright in UK?

Thinking a purchasing iPad 4g 32gb in USA - will I have any problems using it here in the UK?
Purchasing from Apple Store so hopefully should be fully supported by Apple if I should experience any faults
Will installed software work in UK- should I purchase a specific model ie: GSM

Should you experience any faults you will find the warranty is country specific. That is - you will need a US address and US credit card and get your iPad to the US address under your own steam to get your problem fixed.
I tend to think buying an Apple device in your own country, regardless of cost, has a fair bit going for it. The headline price is not everything.

You can't connect an iPod to an iPad for syncing content between the two - if you want to have the same content on both then you will need to go via your computer's iTunes.

I want to buy a factory unlocked phone from US! Will it work well in India without a voltage concertor

Will factory unlocked phone bought from US work in India without any voltage converters?

Yes but you will not get 4G/LTE in India and the warranty is no good in India.

TS3406 I cannot hear other people when I use my phone. The only way to make a phone call is to use the speaker phone. I have rebooted and restored the phone and still it will not work properly. What is the solution?

I can only use my phone by using the speakerphone. I have rebooted and restored. What is the solution

No case. The issue seemingly went away overnight. I don't know what caused it to occur or what happened to make it go away.
