Iphone 5 setup - Verizon or iMac ?

Should I use my imac or Verizon to set up mu new iphone 5?

I set my two iPhone 5s up using Wi-Fi. But the info below probably applies to setting up the iPhone on your iMac.
The one thing I didn't know was that after doing the setup and trying to make a call I would be directed to a Verizon phone that had a message about activation. Wait until after the Spanish is finished then follow the prompts to enter your new iPhones number and agree to the Verizon terms of service. Once you complete that your phone wpshould begin to work normally.
Setting up by connecting with your iMac allows you to add your music, photos and any apps that might have been purchased for a previoulsy owned device.

    Have you set up iCloud on all 3 devices and turned on Notes syncing? On the Mac: Apple Menu > System Preferences > iCloud and put a check mark beside Notes. On the other two, Settings > iCloud and turn Notes on. More info on iCloud setup: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

    Exchange accounts sync without any 3rd party assistance, just put the same account on all devices (ipad/phone and Mac)

    Launch iTunes on your Mac, plug your phone in, select it in the sidebar, select what you want to sync under the various tabs, hit the sync button. If the sidebar is not visible, go up to the "View" menu & select "Show Sidebar".

    The CDMA iPhone 4 does not use a SIM at all. There is no SIM slot. It is a pure CDMA phone.

  • I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes using a designated email address.  However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email account. How can I transfer my ipod to the same account as the iphone

    I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes account using its own designated email address. However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email address. How can I delete this and transfer the ipod to the same account as the iphone 4. Thankyou

    iPods, iPhones, and iPads aren't tied to one particular iTunes accout/Apple ID.  So there are no special instructions to follow to allow you to sync it with your newer account.  Simply sync it as you would your iPhone 4.

  • If I buy an iPhone 4 from Verizon will I be able to get the iOS 5 update in the fall?

    Hi,
    I am going to to be purchasing an iPhone 4 from Verizon this week and have a question.  I am wondering if I will be able to get the iOS 5 update in the fall? I see that it is compatible with iPhone 3gs and iPhone 4 but want to make sure.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

    Even if I knew that I would not have mentiones it since it violates the NDA :-). Guess that doesn't bother you. Stil no guarantee they will be released simultaneously. (Guess Verizon folks will never see 4.3.x).

  • What are the physical internal differences between the iphone 4s on Verizon and AT

    I fix Iphones all the time and i know that the iphone 4 in Verizon and AT&T are the same from the outward eye ( other then the sim trey and some antena placements) but the Iphone 4s is the EXACT same in both companies...right?

    Physically they are the same. The CDMA radio is disabled in the AT&T phone. The Verizon iPhone 4S, even with the SIM slot unlocked by Verizon, can never use any US network other than Verizon.

  • HT4528 how do i use a unlocked iphone 4s on Verizon

    want to use a unlock iphone 4s on Verizon network i have restored the phone i put my sim card in an it jsut say searching

    Verizon's network does not use SIM cards for 3G phones.  If it's unlocked you'll need to call Verizon and have them put the ESN for your iPhone on your line manually

  • Awaiting delivery of an Iphone 6 from Verizon wireless

    Hello all,
    On October 13th I went to an independent Verizon store and ordered an iphone 6 in space gray for 64 gb. The young man at the store didn't provide much service (distracted by a football game) but he was able to order me a new iphone. He said the phones have been arriving earlier than their shipment date then told me that my phone wouldn't be shipped until the 14th of November! I went through with the process as he was adamant that I would have my phone the 1st week of november. I haven't had any update about my phone from verizon and am wondering if anyone else is having a hold up with an Iphone 6 from verizon.
    If you have received your phone how long did it take if you ordered it in early october?
    Cheers,
    Fahnesel

    Hi fahnesel,
    I ordered my iPhone 6 64GB Gold about a week after you (October 21). The expected shipping date was originally 11/7/14 but to my excitement, I received an email today saying it would probably be here by the 7th! I was given about a 2.5 week period of waiting but it's definitely worth it I would say. Unfortunately, Verizon doesn't give you much to work with in terms of tracking where your order is until it is actually shipped out.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do you get iPhone 5 to connect to iMac through bluetooth?

    How do you get iPhone 5 to connect to iMac through bluetooth?
    I know the basic steps, but all I get is pairing unsuccessful. I'm using an older bluetooth, would that make a difference? I got connected once with a Motorola bluetooth, but can't reconnect. TIA!

    Note that you need to have Personal Hotspot set up with your carrier and on your iPhone before you can connect the computer.
