K, so i got a new sim for my iphone 4 with ios7 (vodaphone) and it says 'SIM Not Valid' help?
The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.
Thats what it says on itunes. need help. someone tell me why this is happening and hot to fix it!!!
Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
and on the iPhone:
Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
Then, on the phone, tap
Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test. If there's no change, you may have to wait for a change in network conditions.

Tried updating to 11.4 Itunes and it says "key not valid for use in specified state"
when I tried to update ITunes to 11.4 I get an error message saying " key not valid for use in specified state" I tried uninstalling iTunes and downloading the new version but it still won't download. I also tried syncing my Iphone 6 and it wouldn't let me until I updated to 11.4 which brings me back to my problem???
For "Key not valid for use in specified state" errors try moving the folder RSA from C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA to say C:\RSA (just in case there should be a need to restore it) then try installing again. This folder appears to act as a cache and should be rebuilt automatically as required.
For further problems installing iTunes see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

I tried resetting my networks and turning my phone on and off with the wifi turned on, but neither of it worked. I don't know what to do and I really need wifi on my phone for tomorrow.
Did Apple install the new screen? Or an Authorized Apple Service Provider? If so, you should return to the location that replaced your screen to see if they didn't hook something up properly.
If it wasn't an Authorized Apple Service Provider, or an Apple Retail store, You should take it back to them and discuss it with them. In this case, Apple will likely not offer any replacement service as it was opened by an unauthorized third party. -
My iphone 5 power button broke so now I've got a replacement device. Ive restored all of my old data and everything worked besides my music. Any ideas how i get this back on my new device?
After the restore completed, you need to sync music back. Music is not part of the backup. Just connect the phone back to the computer and sync,.

I need help with my I phone dose not agree with my apple ID or password why and what can i do
Only the ID that was setup for Find My iPhone on the device can be used for unlocking it.
Enter the correct Apple ID and password. If you do not have it, contact whomever does (FYI, it is NOT Apple). -

My dad just got the new MacBook for Christmas. His friends all use PC's and they keep sending him these joke email attatchment files that he can't open on his Mac. One was a .wma audio file, presumably some were video files. Is it possible for him to read these files on his Mac with some aditional software or not? I haven't used Mac's predomanatly before so I'm unsure. What software should he download?
Playing video files from your computer is completely independent of the optical drive. You could play say a Windows Media file even if you didn't have a drive as long as that file is on your computer.
That said some report problems using VLC to play DVD's (hence using your optical drive).
But to the original poster..... Flip4Mac and/or VLC that was suggested should do the trick. About the only thing that would stop those would be a WM10 file that have DRM attached and there's nothing you can use at this point. It's highly unlikely that a bunch of jokes being sent around (great way to get a virus by the way, I know you probably won't and that's why you have a Mac but you get the idea) is using WM10 though. -
I got a new ipad2 for Christmas and I am unable to get it to accept my password for my wifi. I am using the same password that I have always used for all of my other devices. Can somebody help me????
Hi there
I had the same trouble today, I kept entering the sky password but would not accept, my iMac and iPod work ok but just could not get my iPod to work. But I found the fault, the password is case sensitive and mine on sky is in caps, the up arrows on the keypad put the caps on,but after each letter you must put the caps back or it wil revert to lower case, I hope this may help you -
I got a new charger for my ipod 4g and it wont charge
I got a new charger for my IPod 4th gen and it wont charge.What should I do?
What do you mean by "charger"?
Cable?
Wall charger?
Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I got the new update for my macbook air and know it is saying that i have to pay for pages, numbers, and keynote and it said that it was free before i did the update.Can somebody please help... I need pages for a school report.
If you had the previous version of those apps on your machine then the upgrade is free.
If you didn't have them installed you must purchase them. -
I just got a new phone today the iphone 5c and i plugged it into itunes. i wanted to get all of my data from my iphone 4s but when i synced my phone all of my iphone 3 data was on my new phone how do i get my iphone 4 data on my new phone?
Did you choose the wrong back up? There should be a drop box when you go to "Restore from Back up" in iTunes and your iPhone is plugged in, on the Summary page. Choose the correct back up. If you can't find one, and you still have your device, back up your iPhone 4 again and then choose that back up. Or check for an old iCloud back up if you have one.

Just got Iphone4 and it says sim locked, but it works in another phone...
Just got this phone and it says SIM Locked! My SIM card works in another Iphone4 but not in mine. The other card does not work in my phone. Does anyone know what to do???
ok, my carrier is movistar and that is where I bought my phone. She told me to call an apple store, but there is no apple store close to me.... When I went to the store, she put my sim card into her phone and it worked there so she told me that it was the phone and I must have done something to it.... I did not do nothing to it as far as I know... Sooo, I just don´t know what to do. I was hoping for a simple solution press some 2 bottons and all would be ok

I purchased an album a while ago and just got a new ipod so i downloaded all my purchases, and it all downloaded, but it downloaded the wrong songs. It says on the title that it is the correct song, but the audio is a completely different album. any help?
If you have been using the mac.com Apple ID to make iTunes purchases recently, then there should be no issues continuing to use it with the new iPhone. I would abandon the new ID as you will never get Apple to merge the two IDs. I have had a mac.com ID for years and continue to use it with my iPhone 4S.
Tell us the issues that you encounter trying to set up the iPhone with the mac.com account.
