Moving overseas with my iphone - how to make it work

So I am moving overseas with my iphone and getting conflicting reports on if I can get it to work. I need to get it unlocked to work with the other carriers. Apple has told me AT&T will unlock it and AT&T is telling me they won't. I have spoken to 2 different people at each company who say the same thing. I have to break my contract with AT&T either way, so it would seem ridiculous that my iphone would be rendered useless even though it has the capability. Anybody have any idea it AT&T will in fact unlock it..or should I just try to get it unlocked on my own? What would be the best way to do this? Any help greatly appreciated.

Well, you'll probably end up have an iPhone that work as an iPod Touch. I have not heard of AT&T unlocking anybodies phone for any reason (even if you pay the contract termination fee)

    I'd love to make sure your account is taken care of! While our 4G devices are unlocked for global use already, we do need to take care of a few things to suspend your account for military deployment. Can you please reply to the Direct Message I sent you?

    Do you speak of true blue Java or Javascript?  If the latter then it is a problem with the Browser.
    But if it is the real Java, do you have the offical version of Java from Oracle installed?
    Getting applications to see official Java is a nightmare.  If you install the Runtime Environment only (JavaRTE) most applications do not see it.
    To force offical Java system wide, I found you have to install the Java Developer Kit (JavaJDK).  It's a larger install as it also comes with documentation and compilers but it make offical Java system wide.

  • What's that effect with MIDI? How to make it works on Logic Pro?

    Hey guys,
    Look at this video at 6:00.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUsq16D7-KE&feature=uploademail
    How to make something like that on Logic? Guy uses Logic for sure, I watched other videos.

  • HT201269 Phone call activity on new iPhone, how to make it work??

    Does anybody know how to get PHONE CALL activity on your new iPhone device AFTER you have already backed up your old phone and transferred EVERYTHING onto your new iPhone already ??? I can use the Internet , receive texts... But I cannot make calls !! Everything else works except receiving and making calls. I even updated the phone

    If data connection is working on cellular, then you need to contact your carrier. Phone calls are a carrier responsibility. They need to check your account provisioning.

  • CRM 2013: Iframe does not display the url set in onform load event with setSrc. How to make this work?

    I have a situation we need to display a url in Iframe when a form is loading. the url is set in code with setSrc, or updated the query string value. this worked in crm 2004 not any more in 2013.  MSDN states the below to avoid in OnLoad event. what
    is the best way to handle this situation?  Searched web people recommend using setInterval which i dont want to use.
    Any help on this issue is appreciated. 
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg328034(v=crm.6).aspx
    Avoid using the OnLoad Event. IFRAMES and web resources load asynchronously and the frame may not have finished loading before the Onload event script finishes. This can cause the src property of the IFRAME or web resource
    you have changed to be overwritten by the default value of the IFRAME or web resource URL property.

    Thank you for you reply.  this URL you send uses window.setInterval which i am not comfortable using it. we need to call clearInterval(),
    if not the IFrame refresh every second. 
    function SetURL()
    if(Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("IFRAME_ActivitySmmary")!=null)
    Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("IFRAME_ActivitySmmary").setSrc(reportUrl + "&id="+ customerId);
                    Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("IFRAME_ActivitySmmary").setVisible(true);
    else
    { window.setInterval("SetURL()",1000);}

  • Do I need to configure my iPhone 4 to make it work in Argentina. Had a contract in England but moved overseas. I'm sure that it is unlocked.

    Do I need to configure my iPhone 4 to make it work in Argentina. Had a contract in England but moved overseas. I'm sure that it is unlocked.

    Easy to find out, put in a different sim (borrow from someone) and if it works, you are good to go.
    Or call Apple Care and ask if your iPhone is unlocked. If not, get it unlocked first before you moved since only the carrier you are with can officially unlock the iPhone.
    Yes, you need to get a new cellular sim card from the new carrier, you change your Apple ID's Country/Region.

  • TS2634 I bought a composite AV cable with 30 pin connector at a proper apple store for my ipad 2 which no longer works now i have updated to ios7 - please advise how to make this work ?

    I bought a composite AV cable with 30 pin connector at a proper apple store for my ipad 2 which no longer works now i have updated to ios7 - please advise how to make this work ?

    I have the same problem.
    Two similar discussions:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/23081658#23081658
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/23281391#23281391
    I have not yet seen any official response to the question: "Is the Apple AV Composite cable fully supported with 30pin connector devices upgraded with iOS7 - specifically ? - eg. iPad 2, iPhone 4, iPhone 4s"
    If it is not currently supported is that then due to a bug / oversight and in that case is it something that will be fixed in the near future?
    Please let us know what feedback you got from asking Apple support.

    Hello Globalmark
    For your problem dealing only with Skype, Skype supports their product with a comprehensive Help system for answers to your Skype-specific questions.
    If you cannot find the answer you need from their Knowledgebase, Troubleshooter, User Guides, or dedicated Skype-user forum, you can get technical support directly from Skype.
    MSN (now Microsoft) Messenger for Mac cannot use ANY camera unless you are using the "corporate" version. The personal version is a text only app.
    This post will give you the options available to you for using your MacBook Pro to contact those whose only chat client application is MSN (now Microsoft) Messenger.
    Your posted system info shows that you are still using Mac OS X (10.5.1). If that is correct, you may want to consider the advantages of updating to the latest version of Leopard.

  • DVR with fms3 , how to make it work?

    Hi
    I am trying to look for documentation on how the DVR functionality is working in fms3. It seems that I need to implement som server-side scripting to make DVR even work. In Flash Live Encoder there is an option to Record DVR, but it when I press the button, all I get is:
    Thu Apr 30 2009 13:15:38 : Start DVR command received
    Thu Apr 30 2009 13:15:38 : Requested DVR command has been successfully issued to Primary FMS server for stream ob1stream
    Thu Apr 30 2009 13:15:38 : Primary - Network Status: NetConnection.Call.Failed error Method not found (DVRSetStreamInfo).
    Does anyone know how to make this work?
    Best Regards Niclas

    ok i'm back for a second......so uhhh....class is in session here is a basic example of a video encoder
    use this to stream your video while recording.....what makes it record?and not live? this line here:
      ns.publish("thefilename", "record");
    the second parameter.....to make it stream live without recording it to file you change it to "live"....the first parameter is what you name your file...
    after this you use your client player to connect to the same connection as outlined.....and to play the same file ..ie   stream.play("thefilename");
