IPad wrongly says no SIM installed

My iPad2 say that there is no SIM card installed when in fact there is - a new one.

Try disconnecting and reconnecting.

  • My Iphone 4s doesn't work in India. says no sim installed. what to do?

    I have bought Iphone 4s from Dubai and it was working fine there. But after i reached India the phone doesnot work.
    It says no sim installed.
    what needs to be done to make IPhone working?

    Sounds like your iPhone is locked to your home carrier.
    See if they offer unlocking and if you qualify. Otherwise,
    there is nothing you can do besides rent/but a cheap
    phone for your month in Argentina.

    Kilted Tim is correct, did you plug it in to iTunes to complete the process?  I assumed you would have done so, but I shouldn't have assumed.

  • I have had the digitizer changed on my iphone 3gs and put it back after the recvorey mode but it just keeps saying no sim installed please hellp

    i have had my phone unlocked and decided to put a new digitizer on it today but it want come on i done the recovery thing and it keeps saying no sim installed disconnect and install sim but it still want come on please help

    If you had your phone "unlocked in a shop" then your phone is most certainly jailbroken.  Only the carrier to which a phone is locked can officially unlock the iPhone.
    Since your phone is jailbroken, your warranty with Apple is void, and you have forfeited your ability to receive any assistance from Apple including from this forum.  Terms of Use of thie forum prohibit the discussion of jailbroken phones. 
    You will have to look elsewhere on the internet for assistance.  Unfortunately for you, there isn't a fix for your phone and I think you have permanently "bricked" your phone.  You will likely not ever get it to work again.
    In any case, best of luck to you.

  • HT201415 I inserted a working sim card but iPad(2) says "no SIM" - cellular data setting greyed out

    I inserted a working SIM card into my iPad 2. It picked up the network but later gave a message saying "No SIM". The Cellular Data control option is greyed out so I cannot get in to this function. I have tried removing the SIM and re-inserting as well as re-starting. This made no difference. Any suggestions why this is the case? I have tried the SIM in my iPhone 4 and it works fine. Thank you.

    The SIM was taken from my iPhone. It is an extra line and was used for voice calls etc. So, it appears as though I need to get a dedicated data SIM. Appreciate the assistance..many thanks!

  • IPad started saying no sim a week after warranty expired, new sim doesn't work. Apple store said nothing they can do I have to buy new iPad. Surely this cannot be true, it's only a year old on a 2 yr 3G contract please please help

    iPad 2 started saying no sim, exactly 1 yr old. Went to get new sim which also failed to work, seemed to be a Lot of people experiencing same problem. 3 store said apple knows its an issue. Tried everything suggested in forums, took it to apple store for full restore. Nothing helped. Apple store said I had to buy new iPad as mine was 10 days out of warranty. Please help, surely this. Can't  be the case. I thought apples customer service and products were good. I am fixed into a 2 yr 3 g contract with a year to go.

    Hi Debbie, it was a nightmare tried 3 new sim cards non worked. Apple refused to help as it was 10 days out of warranty and i hadnt extended the warranty I hunted Internet and asked couple of American techie guys from my geeks . It seemed to be issue with latest iOS upgrade and my problem happened after I upgraded to its 5.1.1 eventually I had to sit in Apple store with printout of all other affected users. It seemed Americans had been offered new iPads and problem was being acknowledged but not here. Although network providers said they had a lot of customers with same issue. I did get new iPad after long battle and had to pay for extended warranty. Good luck

  • How long do iPad SIM cards last? My iPad keeps saying "No SIM"

    HHow long do iPad SIM cards last?  Mine says "No SIM", so I power down, then power up.  It'll last for a while, then I get the "No SIM" message again.

    There is no "expiration date" on a sim card, but they are a circuit card.  They can go bad.  Talk to your carrier about a replacement.

  • Why does my iPad keep saying no SIM card installed?

    I have an iPad 2 IOS8. It keeps saying I have no SIM card installed, why is that and why do I need a SIM card?

    Hi CusMan!
    I have an article here for you that can help you troubleshoot that issue:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting No SIM
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4148
    The article is written toward iPhone users, but the steps for troubleshooting on the iPad are the same. Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!

  • HT201272 An app is missing from my iPad, but says it is installed so can't re download, help?

    I downloaded an app several weeks ago. It is not on my iPad, when I go to store it says installed, but it is not there. I can't re-downloaded because it is installed? I can't delete it because it is not on my pad?.

    Is that the computer that you normally sync to ? With the iPad selected on the left-hand side of my computer's iTunes, the Apps tab on the right-hand side of iTunes is split into two sections, a list of apps which are on your computer's iTunes and a mock-up of the iPad's screen - because it's the computer that I sync to (and it therefore has all my apps and other content on), I can scroll up and down that list of apps and if I double-click on one of the apps it shows me where the app is on my iPad via the screen mock-up.
    The usual ways to try and find an app on an iPad are to check all screens and app folders, use the iPad's spotlight search screen i.e. the screen before the first homescreen (there is a limit of 11 homescreens on the iPad after which apps can only be found via the spotlight search screen), check restrictions in case it's hidden, try a soft-reset to see if that then get it to appear, and to connect to your computer's iTunes and use the Apps tab to look for it.

  • IPhone not activating after restore, iTunes saying no SIM installed.

    I just had to restore an iPhone 3GS and put in a new SIM card (same carrier; Orange), now whenever I try to activate the phone it says the activation server is temporarily unavailable, whereas iTunes says 'There is no SIM card installed in the phone you are attempting to activate'.
    Is there a fix to this problem? I tried restoring again but I've had no luck with it.

    i am having the same thing when you go though the setup up on my sons verzion iphone 4 and  it says your iphone could not be actvated because the actvation sever is temporarily unavailable  i dont think its apples fault i think its because all the carier are  working  on  there 4  networks  i blame verzion  apple shoud make its own carier
