Is sims card necessary if you only use wi-fi?
Just got an Ipad 4. Haven't got it set up yet. When I plug it in, I get the no sims card message. Do I need a Sims card to operate it on WFi?
Did you buy a Cellular iPad? Only Cellualr iPads can use a Sim, and only to connect a Cellular providers network to get internet. They donñt need the sim to connect to Wifi netwoirks,
If you bought a Wifi only iPad, you can't use a sim card nor do you need one.

You can also use prepaid iTunes cards, if those are available in your country. PayPal is also an option if you're in the US.

how do you unlock an ipad mini so you can use an overseas sim card, how do you unlock an ipad mini so you can use an overseas sim card
iPads are not "locked". Get an iPad data plan and sim card from a local provider and connect to their 3G/LTE service.

why is my credit card being charged, i only use itune cards .you are charging my itune card and my credit card
These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here. If you add or change your credit card details then you will probably receive a temporary holding charge ($1), which should disappear within a few days (holding charges). If it's not a holding charge then you can contact iTunes support and ask for help : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Have a AT&T iphone 4 and it will not let me login to the iPhone without a sims card and if you use a AT&T sims card it won't work
Define "won't work"...
You can not activate an iPhone without a SIM. If the phone is carrier locked, you must have a valid Sim from the correct carrier.
What EXACTLY is the message you're getting? -

Can I switch my go phone iPhone 4 to an iPhone 6 witch already has a SIM card that isn't in use? Or do I have to buy a whole new go phone SIM card to fit the iPhone 6
Only if the SIM is a gophone SIM. If it is not a gophone sim, it will not work on gophone system. Go to a corporate store and they will give you the proper SIM to use on gophone service.

If I get my iphone unlocked can I buy a sim card in Spain and then use it there and get free 3g access
No. You can't activate any iPhone without a sim card installed. The sim card itself need not be activated, but it must be valid & present. Since you updated the software, the phone requires re-activation, thus you need a sim card. You can borrow one from someone, but bottom line, you need a sim card.

I damaged my iPhone 4. I have ordered a new 4s. I never backed up or synced my contacts onto my sim card. Do you have to do that manually or will my contacts be on my phone when I put my sim card in the new iPhone 4s? (Will I be able to put my 4 sim card in my 4s?
The iPhone under normal circumstances does not store contacts on the SIM Card. It can read them, but again under normal circumstances does not write them to the SIM Card.
When you sync your new iPhone to iTunes on your usual computer you can restore from a Back-Up of your old iPhone to get Contacts and other data and files installed on your new iPhone. -

Greetings. Do you know if an unlocked Iphone 5S can switch from CDMA to GSM with a sim card, or if you have to choose one capacity or the other when you buy the phone? Many thanks.
Is this a Verizon or Sprint iPhone 5S?

I purchsed an apple iphone 4s(8gb) GSM phone in jakarta from authorised apple store on 22/3/2014.The phone could recognise only 2 network service providers out of many that are available .Despite all efforts (approximately 6 hours) to make the phone recognise other sim cards,nothing could be done. The reseller finally begged excuse and said that this phone was meant for use only in indonesia with only 2 service provide(xl & mentari).& with no other service providers at all. That sounds weird to me. At the end of the day, the reseller finally cancelled my transaction and i had to return back home sad & empty handed.
Apple, do u have any answer to this issue with your i phone 4s 8gb in Indonesia?

I purchased the iPad Air without SIM card capability. Only time I would use this is when we travel 4 weeks per year. Is it worth returning while I still can gan get that capability...if so which company is the most flexible?
Some carriers will allow you to start up and use a plan for a month and then either have the plan go dormant or be deleted. Each carrier may have their own rules about this.
The first thing to consider in selecting a carrier is to determine how good the coverage is in the area you will use it most. Then look to the details of the various plans.
