Is my Apple-Issued Replacement for a Verizon-Issued iPhone 5 Unlocked?
Due to a water accident I went to Apple and they sold me a replacement for my Verizon-Issued iPhone 5. If I understand correctly, Verizon's iPhone 5 was shipped to customers unlocked. Is the phone that I got from Apple as a replacement (and I was told that I was getting exactly what I already had) unlocked? I really need to know as I am about to go overseas.
Thanks
Yes, the GSM side of your replacement phone is unlocked.

When will IOS 4 be available for the Verizon CDMA iPhone 4?
When will IOS 4 be available for the Verizon CDMA iPhone 4?
There is no way to know such a thing unless Apple announces, which they very rarely do and speculation/rumor is not allowed here.
Keep checking for updates in itunes or watch the forum.
Someone will begin complaining about it within seconds of its release. -

How do i get an activation code for a second hand iphone to unlock it
I need an activation code for my second hand iphone i just bought online
See the quote below from Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support
The other option is to return the phone.
What if I purchase a device that is still linked to the previous owner's account?
Contact the previous owner as soon as possible and ask them to erase the device and remove it from their account. Learn how to remove a device from a previous owner's account. -
hello, im having battery problem on my iphone 5s. can someone help me out on this? thank you
You will need to take it back to the US for service. The warranty is not international. Next time buy the phone in the country you intend to use it. That way you will not be so sad.

One Apple ID used for two people's iPhones-what to do now?
My Dad bought an iPhone 3G when it came out and, naturally, used his Apple ID for his purchases. When the 3GS came out, he upgraded and gave the 3G to my mom. Since she doesn't sync the iPhone with a computer, she's never made her own Apple ID.
I'm wondering what the best course of action is, since she's bought quite a few apps using my Dad's account and wouldn't want to have to repurchase them if she created her own account. Is there any way to transfer certain apps?
On that note, she recently got herself a nice MacBook Pro. Her iPhone 3G used to be synced to my Dad's old iBook, so I take it there's no way to start syncing her iPhone 3G with her MacBook Pro without restoring it? Thanks for your help!Authorize her computer with my dad's account meaning that she would be able to continue using his Apple ID and the apps she purchased with it
Yes. She does not need to use his iTunes ID at all except to authorize her computer (since she purchased apps with his iTunesID).
while syncing her iPhone with her MacBook Pro?
Yes. In order to use the apps she purchased under his iTunes ID, on her own computer, it needs to be authorized for his iTunes ID.
She can the use her own iTunes ID to make any further purchases.
I guess it's nice to have that option (if I understood correctly), but I like your suggestion to just start fresh.
She not really "starting fresh" as such.
She is simply creating her own account and copying the stuff she purchased from the other computer.
Authorize iTunes on her own computer then plug in the iPhone and File -> Transfer purchases to get these itmes into her own iTunes. -
Apple Care - Coverage for broken display? iPhone 4S
Hi,
next week I get my new (first) iPhone from Vodafone (Germany). An iPhone 4S, and as all know, the display is very critical. My old phone, fell very often down, but it was an HTC desire and so nothing happen. But I think, with a iPhone 4S I have not so much luck.
That the reason, why I think about Apple Care. Is there a Coverage for broken displays?
Or do I need Apple Care+? If I need Apple Care+, is this available for germany? Because I don't see it at the german page. I think I can buy it, but accept the apple care+ me from germany?
And second question. Do I need the Apple Care for the first year of my iPhone? Because it's free for the first year if I understand it right, and then can buy it for the second year? Or do I understand it wrong? If this it right, again: are broken display covered for the first free/included year?
Thanks for your help
schnuffiBroken displays are only covered if they were a factory defect at the time of purchase. Otherwise, they result from user negligence which is not covered under the warranty.
AppleCare Extended warranty is an addition to the one year default warranty. You can purchase AppleCare Extended Warranty any time before the one year factory warranty expires which is one year from date of purchase. -
Apple id format for using find my iphone
Hi,
How do i use my existing apple id for setting up the Find My Iphone? the set up screen says to input the apple id as [email protected], ie in an email address format, whereas my apple id is not in the [email protected] format. it is only xxx.You need to change your old Apple ID to one with an email address. Here is some info from a FaceTime document (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4319):
Ensure that the Apple ID you are using to register FaceTime on iPod touch (4th generation) is an email address. If your Apple ID is not an email address, you can change it on appleid.apple.com. This article provides instructions on how to change the Apple ID.
"appleid.apple.com is":

I believe my kid gave somebody my password to download something. And I want to know who? Can it say For example: "2 iPads, 2 iPhones and 1 computer used your Apple ID ?"
Only if they went to the trouble of setting their device up as a "Managed Device" on your ID.
Change your password. -

Jacob|Web Planner | Best Buy® CorporateI am not a techy, but I am usually able to describe to the support people the exact conditions under which errors occur. Why this issue that we are both having, as common as it is (do a search and you will see it everywhere), is not common knowledge is beyond me.
To review my situation: If I was hooked to a Wi-Fi connection, I had no problem receiving or sending emails from my Time Warner account. Once I disabled the Wi-Fi switch on iPhone (as if I were out of range, traveling) and tried to send a message with my TW email account, I got the error message that it "could not identify" the server and then the email would go to my outbox.
I think I have found the answer after about an hour on the phone: a call to Time Warner who eventually urged me to call Verizon about outgoing server settings, a call to Verizon who told me that the problem was with TW and their settings, a call again to Time Warner, and finally I received a call from Verizon tech support to make sure I got my answer from Time Warner! The short answer is: Time Warner has an issue/limitation (Perhaps with the 3G network?)
*The second call to TW revealed what Verizon support suspected....YOU NEED TO BE ON A WI-FI TO SEND EMAILS VIA TW. No problem ever receiving--just sending.* I hope this sheds some more light on your situation. Not a major deal for me, (I'll probably use a gmail account), but it is good to know WHY something does not work. All parties were helpful and patient at least. -
