Micro Sim cards in Italy and India

I am going abroad from the UK and want use my IPad1 can anybody recommend a sim card for Italy (Venice short of WiFi cafes, sensibly)
Plus India in January

I don't have experience with this, but have read posts from people who have done this. The issue I've seen people have difficulty with is actually buying a sim card in Europe from a carrier with a US credit card. If you have any friends over there, they might be able to help you overcome this obstacle.

How do I get an iPad micro sim card for Austria and Italy? We purchased one for Germany, but it doesn't cover in Austria or Italy

Compare the roaming charges from the German carrier with services like those:

Otherwise buy a pre-paid micro-SIM card for the iPad in each country you visit.

I have just bought off my son his iphone4, we all forgot that he was on o2 (but no longer) I am on vodaphone, got a micro sim card from vodaphone to enable me to keep my number, but it won't unlock, unless i want to spend huge amounts of money and wait 3 weeks, have followed the instructions on itunes for the unlocking but not successful. Help anyone.

O2 will and do unlock iPhones for their customers and quite happily compared to some other UK carriers
The user must either be in contract or an active PAYG customer and the iPhone must be in use ontyhe O2 UK network

Can I buy sim card in Italy and use in my iPad 2?

I'm traveling to Italy and am exploring my cell phone options. I know that my iPhone is locked, so I am wedded to AT&T, an expensive proposition. It is my understanding that my 3G iPad is not locked. Correct me if I am wrong. That raises the possibility that I could get an Italian sim and use my iPad as a communication device. Will this work? Has anyone tried it? If not, does anyone have any other suggestions besides the obvious ones like Skype?

I have an SIII and will be traveling out of the country. Do I need to get a micro SIM card ? (I was told that Verizon has them for free but it needs to be set up and there was a charge for this.

I have a Samsung SIII and will be traveling out of the country. Do I need to get a micro SIM card instaslled for international ? I was told Verizon has them free for customers but that it needs to be "sert up". Also, are there alternatives to going through the verizon data plan (which is very expensive.
Thanks

Your phone already has a micro SIM card in the device so it can connect to the VZW network. You will need an international plan from VZW if you intend to use that SIM card. Otherwise you can get a new SIM card from the local carrier and setup the phone for global use with a separate APN with that carrier's specific information.

Sounds like you bought an AT&T no contract phone. You will need to contact AT&T for unlocking but they are only doing so for current and previous account holders. If you have never had service with them they will not unlock your phone.

Contact the original cellular provider, as they are the only ones that can provide unlocking.

Can I buy a new Micro SIM card in France for my Verizon iPhone 5 and use it while in Paris? Same for London?

I am travelling to Paris for a week and then London for a week. Can I purchase a new Micro SIM card for my Verizon iPhone 5 in Paris and London and then use my phone with some sort of prepaid plan while in France and England?

I just spoke with Tech Support at Verizon and they said Yes, I can use my iPhone 5 in France and England. No unlocking is needed because the phones come pre-unlocked and ready to go. All I need to do is buy a new Micro SIM card in France/England and pick the pre-paid plan of my choosing and the phone will be good to go. Of course, I need to not lose my original Micro SIM card otherwise I would have quite the headache getting a new one once back in the US.

Can you cut a micro sim card and use it in an unlocked iPhone 5s?

I bought an unlocked iPhone 5s but I still have a contract and use a micro sim card. Is it possible to cut my sim card and still be able to use it with the iPhone 5s?

There are SIM cutters, but first ask your carrier if they can provide a nano-SIM. You will still keep the same phone number, and it won't affect he contract.

What is this micro sim card ?

What is this micro sim card and is this phone not work with regular sim card which available in india.

A mico SIM is just the standard SIM in a smaller form factoer. With care one can cut down a standare SIM to use in a device that uses a micro SIM as long as the SIM is compatible with the carrier. Google forinstructions for cutting down a card.
I do not fully understand your questions since the iPod Touch does not use a SIM or micro SIM card. The iPads and iPhone 4 uses a micro SIM.

IPhone4 recognizes SOME micro sim cards but not all

I'm new to this forum so please forgive me if this is a subject already covered.
I bought an unlocked iphone4 from the online Apple store in Singapore through a friend. I live in Indonesia, where it is not yet released so I had to trim a mini sim into a micro sim. Being cautious, I first tried this with a prepaid card, and was successful with 3 cards (could be used in iphone). Thus gained confidence, I trimmed the card I normally used and ... the iPhone doesn't recognize it. The chip on this card is larger than on the other three, but several websites assured me this should not be a problem. I am sure I didn't damage the chip. I've had the sim card for years and it works fine (well, until I trimmed it). Does anyone know how I could fix this?

The older SIM card is the problem.
See if you can get a new one from the provider, it will very likely work.

HT1316 I just bought a 3G, GSM, AT&T compatible (i-Phone) on Amazon. I need to find out whether it uses regular or micro (sim) card.

I just bought a 3G, GSM, AT&T compatible (i-Phone) on Amazon. I need to find out whether it uses regular or micro (sim) card. The phone has not been delivered yet.

iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS (iPhone 3 series) both use regular SIM Card.
iPhone 4 GSM and iPhone 4S (iphone 4 series) use micro SIM Card.
The iPhone 3 series can use micro SIM with special adapter.

Is there any other way to be able to reset your iphone 4S without a micro sim card using itunes?

I have an iphone 4S but I havent anymore micro sim cards to be able to reset it with anymore and its the most used amoung my ipods, is there anyway at all to be able to reset the iphone using itunes?? and without a micro sim card??

You can restore on iTunes without a sim card by using recovery mode. This will take the iPhone back to factory settings.
You won't be able to activate (set up) the iPhone without a sim card though.
