my 4S keeps showing me sos only only invalid sim? desperate for help?

Ok, so I just went to Australia from NZ and the same thing happened to me. I was so annoyed as I couldn't text, ring or anything. I returned to NZ this morning, rang telecom and they said it's a hardware issue and talked me through this:
Settings, Phone, SIM applications, roaming menu, manual, select your provider, accept.
Go through each stage and this fixed the problem!!
Good luck!!

  • I forgot my Apple ID security question answers and cannot contact iTunes support by phone. The only way I can ask for help is via email. How can I make that happen?             Thanks

    Hi! So I haven't used iTunes in a few months but I just got an iTunes gift card and want to make a purchase. iTunes redeemed it just fine but now that I want to make a purchase I am having problems. I can't remember my security question answers and iTunes is requesting them. I have two other verified emails but the are NOT rescue emails. I can't contact iTunes over the phone because my phone lines are out and are going to be out for a long time. The only way I can contact them is by email. How can I do this? Is there an easy way to just reset all my security questions? Please help a girl out. I just want my music!
    Thanks so much

  • I'm trying to update to iOS 5 and it keeps showing an error "this device isn't eligible for this build" What can I do?

    I have restored my iPod touch 4G to the iOS 4.3.5, then I tryed to update/restore with the iOS 5 and it pops an error saying my device isn't eligible for this build, how can I solve this issue?

    Here's what I found about the error you mentioned, copied from http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to performunauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect.  For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

    If you regulalry back up your phones in itunes, and havent backed up your phone since this happed, then connect to itunes, click on the restore button under the summary tab and restore your phone from your back up. Then turn on private browsing after thats done.

  • HT1766 The screen shows problems with iCloud only choices are ignore or settings, however nothing I do will unlock it from this screen, cannot power off keeps that bubble on the screen. What do I do?

    The screen shows problems with iCloud only choices are ignore or settings, however nothing I do will unlock it from this screen, cannot power off keeps that bubble on the screen. What do I do?

    Try this now.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Why wont my Tv Show Download? it only says "download error. tap to retry" and tapping doesnt work it just keeps on saying the same thing.

    Why wont my Tv Show Download? it only says "download error. tap to retry" and tapping doesnt work it just keeps on saying the same thing.

    It appears in the download section of my itunes.
    I downloaded a season of Iron Man Anime and all of the episodes except episode 1 was downloaded. I looked at the error and it says "error = -50" and when I try to resume downloading, it continues to tell me that there is a download error and it wont resume.
    It also says to check my network connection, but I'm connected. So....I'm not sure what to do...this kind of ticks me off.

  • Button Rollover keeps shifting on hover  - Firefox only

    Hi there,
    I have a shopping cart button rollover that keeps on shifting
    a few pixels whenever you roll over it. Strangely, this only
    happens in Firefox. The page can be
    found here
    The button is being called from a template .
    located
    here.
    I also tried putting the button directly into the original
    page, just to see if it was a problem with the template, and it
    still shifted.
    Any ideas?
    * EDIT *
    I think it was an extra <tr> tag floating in the table.
    However, now I'm getting an error in IE although it renders fine.
    Sigh.

    Have you considered using "set text of layer" (could be "set
    text of
    container")?

  • I can't load 1 Imovie project. Imovie shows 5 projects but only 4 icons show of those. 1 projects symbol won't come up so I can't click on it to work on or play. Please help me as there's lots of work on this project I don't want to lose.

    The performance fixes is a biggy for me, though the other missing
    stuff I use makes me have to use both versions for various things:
    "but they seem to be committed to another release/version."
    Well ... now that's the rub. I would actually welcome this intermediate version to play with (even with the cost of upgrading) if I could rely on it to be finalized into 6.0, full featured, without it taking as long as it has to Upgrade from AA3.0. I would say it was a VERY smart move to give us a preview of 6.0, if I felt in, say, six months they would provide us the fully functional update. But, HOW many years has it been. I felt screwed over while they played around with Sound Booth.
    I was with you for a minute in most of what you said, until your credibility went down a couple notches with me on the statement trivializing midi functionality. I though that was a very clueless statement:
    "but I have no need for a midi controller and if I want a drummer to keep perfect time I'll get a drum machine."
    It does make some of your other statements suspect, tho I won't take it as far as therealdobro's "what's your stake" question.
