just got my iphone5 and had it activated at verizon. I made 1 call and received one call. next attempt to call, I recd a message 'no sim card found" any suggestions?

First of all, is this a GSM or CDMA iPhone? do you have a case? If not it could have been the Death Grip. Death Grip is where if you place your hand over the bottom left black line on the iPhone 4 and the signal will be reduced. Apple should have fixed it.

  • TS3274 Just got an ipad and can't open the SIM Card slot - is it meant to be spring loaded - as it comes with a little tool that you poke in the hole, but it will not pop out any help please?

    Just got an ipad air, ordered from Apple online store, can't open the SIm card slot - comes with a special tool, but is it meant to be springloaded and just pop out? I think it is faulty.

  • Bought 'Unlocked' iPhone 4s and it won't recognize sim card. Any help?

    Had an iPhone 4 but screen broke so I sent it out for repair but it couldn't be fixed so ordered an unlocked white iphone 4s from a third party site called 'TradeAnythingUk'. I kept my sim card so I could put it in this phone it came through the post today and during setup it has told me this error message :
    'The sim card in this iPhone does not appear to be supported, Onlly compatible sims from a supported carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insrt the sim that came with your iPhone or visit a supported carriers store to receive a replacement sim card'
    I looked at a few forums and thought I'd try restoring the phone and re installing the software this hasn't changed anything
    Is this a pure case of the phone not actually being unlocked or is there any more to this problem
    I am with Orange network by the way and I am in the UK.

    Apparently you didn't get an iPhone that was officially unlocked, but rather one that either wasn't unlocked at all (and you were flat lied to) or that was hacked to unlock it. Restoring would have removed any such hack in most cases.
    Only the carrier to whom the iPhone is locked can authorize an unlock, and most carriers will not unless you have service with them. I'd suggest you go back to the unauthorized reseller from whom you purchased this iPhone for redress, since they didn't sell you what they apparently claimed. It's quite possible, though, that you may have to chalk this up as a learning experience, swallow the loss, and buy another iPhone from an authorized source.
    Just so you know, unless your old iPhone was in pieces or jailbroken, Apple would have replaced it for £119 if you had taken it to an Apple Store.
    Regards.

  • I just got my iphone5 and synced it but the contacts and pictures didn't sync.  Is there a way to fix that?

    Just got my iphone 5 and synced it/restored it from my old iphone 4 back up.  It did not sync my contacts or pictures, anyone know why it didn't and what I have to do to get it to work. Or know of another way to transfer contacts to new phone?  Would hate to have to add all my contacts manually. 

    I´m taking about the "CUSTOM LABELS"

  • My wife just got an iPhone5 and now it is recieving my text messages, why?

    My wife just got the 5, I have the 4S and she now gets all my text messages, why?

    This happens when you both use the same Apple ID for iMessage.  To fix this you have two choices:
    On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
    On both phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".  Also uncheck anyone else's phone number, if present.

  • Just got a Iphone5 and the screen has locked.  How do I unlock.  Siri keeps annoying me as well

    I just purchased the iPhone 5.  The screen is now lock and "Siri" keeps talking to me.  How do I unlock the screen and make Siri go away?

    I tried simulating and checking the installed PD files and found out the due to the security setting set for Panther, upon installation Palm Conduit installer changes the ownership and permission settings of some Palm folders to Read Only. The Palm Desktop Installer requires these folders have Read & Write access. That is why problems occurs even after seeing complete installation. What I did to correct this is uninstall/reinstall not just once but many times til the complete Palm files were correctly installed to its designated system files.

  • I just upgraded to Yosemite and can no longer connect to the WIFI  any suggestions

    I Just up upgraded to Yosemite and can no longer connect to internet - any ideas?

    I have the same problem after loading OS X 10.10 Yosemite on my MacBook Pro (Late 2008).  Wi-Fi (Time Capsule) connects OK, then I open Safari and it waits for a minute and then gives me a message that it can't load the page because I'm not connected to the Internet.  The Wi-Fi is fine.  When I run the network analysis, it shows that everything is fine up to the Internet; the dots are red after that.  I have another MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) and it loaded and runs with no known problems (so far).  I am writing this message on the Late 2008 MacBook Pro, so you can see that there is no problem with the Internet connection.  It is a Yosemite problem.  My iPhone and newer MacBook Pro connect with no problem.  I loaded Yosemite TWICE, then ran the Disk Utility and fixed some disk permissions but there were no other problems identified.  Restarting after reloading Yosemite and the same problem is there.  Restarted after running the disk utility and fixing disk permissions and it still can't connect to the Internet.  Same problem.  Does anyone have an idea how this might be fixed?  What's going on?  Thanks for your help.
    Update:  Air Drop also doesn't work.  Thanks.

  • Just got iphone 5 and it won't connect to wifi. Any solution?

    Has anyone found a solution to this?

    YES!!!
    After 3.5hrs. of grinding away @ this new Iphone5 ( white 32 gb )
    I 1st went to general in settings,
    reset the network settings,    ........    (yes, it's new but to be safe I did it)
    Next I reinstalled my Linksys/ Cisco router software from the installation disk & thank God they updated my software automatically (probably the firmware).
    I then double checked to make ABSOLUTELY DEAD CERTAIN I entered the CORRECT password!!!!!!
    Even though I did do it properly the 1st time I tried to link up, the new router software upgrade did the trick.
    The router in question is the Linksys E2500.
    The dead give away was when I woke up I went STRAIGHT to McDonalds, bought a newspaper, & linked into their Wi/Fi in less than 10 seconds. So if it worked there it had to be a software issue @ home.
    Give it a shot. I'm certain IO/S 6 must certainly need the latest software in order to function properly.
    I hope this helps.
    DON'T PANIC!!! Use a little patience, take a little time, & you'll find you have a very nice device
    Good Luck,

  • I just got my Mac and I used my family Apple ID. It had all of my parent's information, I added my e-mail.I wanted to make my own Apple ID, but I couldn't use the same e-mail address again! How do I delete this information so I can make my own Apple ID?

    It is not clear how or where you "added" your email, but you cannot create an Apple ID using an email address that is already associated with another Apple ID.
    If that is what you did, delete that email address from your family's Apple ID. You should be free to create a new one.
    Do all that by starting here: https://appleid.apple.com/
    Select "Manage your Apple ID". Log in with your family's Apple ID and then delete your own email address wherever it appears.
    Save Changes, log out, and create the new one using the same website. This time select "Create an Apple ID".
    Please don't forget your security questions, and be sure to specify a "rescue email address" that is separate from all other Apple IDs. You will avoid so many problems that way...

  • TS2446 I just got my Ipad and I can not download apps.  I get a message saying my Apple ID has been disabled.  I have reset my password, I can access itunes and icloud but still can not download apps.  Can someone please tell me how to get my ID activated

    Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone/iPad then try logging out of your account on the phone/iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

  • HT1766 I just got a 5s and had taken some pictures. Then I plugged it into my PC and set it up using my previous backup from my iPhone 4. Now the pictures I had taken are gone, is there any way to get them back?!

    Sorry no as you wipe the current data when you restore from your backup.
