"No sim card installed" after updating to iOS 7.0.3

Hi,
Updated my iPad 2 to iOS 7.0.3 yesterday evenening and am now stuck with an iPad that doesn't recognize the sim anymore. I've already gotten a brand new sim card from my carrier, but that doesn't seem to work either.
At this moment I'm trying to put it back to factory settings, hoping that will work.
Any of you any other brilliant suggestions? Or experiencing the same problem?

Thanks, but I just did the first... and it hasn't worked. And I live in the Netherlands where we don't have a official apple store (yet) with genius bar... Have to solve this the hard way.

All iPhones sold in Japan are carrier locked. The Japanese carriers do not offer unlocking.
You can not use that phone on a carrier other than the one it is locked to.
Sell it and buy one you can use.

Hey User13579,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Follow these steps to attempt to resolve the issue.
iPhone: Troubleshooting No SIM
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4148
Toggle Airplane mode On and Off.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
Check for a carrier settings update. Tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, a prompt will appear.
Remove the SIM Card and verify that it is a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it is not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
Restore the iPhone.
Have a nice day,
Mario

how to solve this problem. I don't have any sim cards that came with iphone.
Please help out to solve this problem.
It sounds like the phone was hacked or jailbroken, and updating it locked it to the original carrier. As it is not possible to update to any version other than the current one (5.1) the fact that you updated to 4.1 pretty much confirms the phone was hacked. There is no solution that you can get in an Apple forum.

I updated my iphone 3g to ios4.2.1 ... the update was succesful but nw itunes says that sim card inserted in this phone is not acceptable and also states that on;y compatible sim from supported carrier is acceptable !!! kindly suggest ...

It has NEVER been possible to purchase an unlocked iPhone 3G in the US. Your phone was hacked. Updating it has re-locked it to AT&T. AT&T will NOT unlock iPhones for any reason.
The phone is now useless to you. There is no legitimate way to fix this. Buy a new phone. Preferably in India.

HT4623 ipad froze and shows itunes with plug while updating with iOS

ipad froze and shows itunes with plug while updating with iOS.

That message means that you have to restore the iPad using iTunes now. Something went wrong. This explains how to do it. Read it thoroughly before you start - and take note of the end of the article under Additional Information where it talks about using recovery mode. You might need to use it.

Did you click on the link just below that that says:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows
You have to read the entire support article and follow the subsequent links if the first solutions do not resolve the issue....

Droid DNA - No SIM card after OTA update

I took the OTA update for the DNA today. Now my phone says it doesn't have a SIM card. Reboot does not solve the problem. Has anyone else experienced this?
Why can't Verizon properly test updates before unleashing them on its customers?

I have had the 'No SIM Card' issue before and after the software update, and am beginning to wonder if it's a hardware issue. Last night, I did not have a connection for nearly twenty minutes, and during that time I rebooted (quick power off as well as closing all apps) and turned airplane mode on/off about 20 times. I've had the No SiM card issue for about 3-4 weeks in varying occurrences. I've taken very good care of my phone, haven't dropped it, and haven't done anything to damage it, so I don't know what Verizon is going to do about this, but it's holding me back from updating my data plan and buying expensive accessories like the wireless charger.
Furthermore, if an emergency situation were to happen while this problem were occurring, I will absolutely hold Verizon responsible for any damages or injury caused by the inability to communicate through 911, etc.

Help please - itunes doesnt read SIM card

Lately my iphone shuts down by itself when i turn it on
On the screen it says “Activate iphone connect to itunes”
So I connect it to itunes and a window pops up saying
“The phone “iPhone” cannot be used with iTunes because the SIM card is not installed. You must insert your SIM card into your iPhone in order to activate it.”
My SIM card is inserted into my iPhone but does not connect to itunes [i have the recent version]
I cant do anything in my phone or in itunes
I went to the apple store and they replaced the phone already for a couple of times [problem keeps happening]
So one of the people in apple told be to get a new SIM card because that might be the problem [since this problem keeps happening with the same SIM card but different phones]
Today I bought a new SIM card went to the apple store, they gave me a new iphone, they said it should be able to work
I came home again the problem happened
I need help my phone doesn’t work at all and it keeps happening

Hey BeatrizG,
If your seeing the issue with multiple iPhones and SIM cards, its most likely an external source causing the issue.
Do you have a protective case on the iPhone? If the case has a magnetic clip that could be the cause of the issue.

Unable to read SIM card after latest update

I downloaded the most recent android update on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 on 12/10. Since that update, i've gotten the message "Unable to read the SIM card. Please restart your phone to read the card" a half-dozen times. The timing between the messages is sparatic (one time it was a few hours between messages, another time a full day, then 12 hours the third time, etc...).
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Is there a simple fix to this (such as just getting a new SIM card from Verizon)? I'd like to think that the update wasn't the culprit of this, but I've had my Note 4 since the initial release, and it's only started happening since the last update.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm having the same "Unable to read the SIM card" issue. My phone is less than two months old, the unable to read SIM card issue started about a week after I purchased the phone. That was followed by a host of erratic, sporadic issues to the phone becomes unusable and the only way to temporarily fix it is to remove the battery for a few seconds. I've gone through the factory reset with Verizon reps where I purchased the phone from as well as with a Verizon online Chat representative. In a nutshell, I got a ticket to send the phone back to Samsung in Plano, Texas to get the phone fixed, I am going to do that today because this problem is ridiculous.

They replaced both phones... the New SIM card tray arrived and I placed it in my new Replacement phone.... its been 2 weeks and I have not had any SIM card issues..... still Waiting to see what happens if any... no on the other hand my wifes new replacement phone has had SIM card issues with in 4 days.

Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. Any suggestions please?

Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. I DO NOT have any back ups on itunes. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without restoring or recover data after a restore?
Or any other suggestions please? Thanks

As pdroth said, you should have gotten a backup made when you started the update of iOS. If you cannot find a backup, and the phone is in recovery mode, there are no futher suggestions to make. To get the phone working again you have to restore. You cannot force a backup at this time since it is already in recovery mode. It will not allow anything else but a restore at this point.
