My iphone 3gs says sim not provisioned

hi all, my apple iphone 3gs has been working fine for months and i have now just bought a new iphone and given my 3gs to my mum, she has put in her sim card after signing in with her apple id and for some reason it is now saying sim not provisioned any ideas??

More info please. Did this occur while you were trying to set up the iPhone new, or while you already had it registered and working? If it was already set up and working when this happened, then go to the settings and reset the network settings. If this doesn't work then press and hold the power button and home button for about 10 seconds until the phone shuts off by itself and then reboots.

  • Iphone 4s saying sim not valid i just got the phone is have unlock code what do I do

    Just got an iPhone 4s have the unlock code but the screen is just saying sim not valid how do I unlock

    There is no such thing as an "unlock code" for an iPhone. If someone sold you one you have been scammed. iPhones are unlocked by the carrier the phone is locked to updating the master iPhone database maintained by Apple.

  • I am having trouble getting 3G service on my new ipad 2, what does it mean when it says SIM not provisioned?

    I am having trouble accessing the 3G network on my new ipad 2, what does it mean when it says that the SIM is not provisioned?

    SIM not provisioned usually means that the 3G service has not been set up yet. Have you set up the service through the settings menu?

  • Sim not provisioned, yet my iPhone has been working perfectly

    Can anyone please help me
    My iPhone has been working perfectly but now says sim not provisioned?

    Could be an error with the SIM itself or some glitch on your account?  I would call your carrier's tech support number and ask them about it - it may be something they can deal with over the air, or they may need to get you a new SIM.

    Contact your cell phone provider, that is a carrier feature.
    double check here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937 to see if you're using a supported iphone carrier.

  • Sim not provisioned - no network?

    Phone was working fine till yesterday, no it says no network and when I go into phone settings it says - sim not provisioned. It's an iphone 4. please help...

    Contact the carrier... most likely it will require a replacement SIM.

  • My phone says SIM not valid after ios 5 update, Why and how do I fix it?

    Why does my iPhone 4 say SIM not valid after I updated to ios 5? Also, is there anything I can do to fix it?

    Sounds like your phone was software unlocked, or hacked/jailbroken, to work with any carrier. Updating the phone restored the original carrier lock. All you can do now is contact the carrier it is locked to and see if they have an unlocking policy.
    Good luck.

  • What is sim not provisioned 2

  • No service, sim not provisioned, copy numbers from old phone to iPhone!!!

    As Apple don't provide any sort of useful instruction manual with the iphone here are the probs and answers I encountered with my iPhone 3GS.
    *copy numbers from old phone to iPhone*
    1st problem is that my old Nokia had far more numbers stored on it than on the Sim card alone, so having received and opened box of iPhone with new sim card I switched off my old Nokia phone, removed old sim card, replaced it with new sim card and copied contents to new card, then ejected new card from old phone and fitted in new iPhone.
    NOTE: You will need to have an iTunes account set-up.
    From the main menu in the iPhone select 'settings' > 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars', then scroll down & click on 'Import SIM contacts'. The numbers should be copied from your sim to your iPhone which stores the numbers on its memory rather than the SIM. - I looked for hours before discovering this!
    If you have more numbers on your old phone, then be careful to select numbers from phone / sim which is in the 'phone book' > 'settings' >'Memory in use' because you can more numbers from phone to sim and similarly protect numbers from deletion by moving them to the phone memory.
    It took me three chip moves from phone memory from Nokia to iPhone before all the numbers were moved.
    Note that text messages are NOT transferred from Nokia to iPhone via sim.
    **No Service* or 'Sim not provisioned'*
    Not able to connect to the rest of the world or SIM not provisioned may be down to you not switching your phone off properly, no thanks to the rubbish instruction manual with the iPhone where they assume you know where everything is!
    Anyone looking for help on this subject, look to the button located on the top of the phone at the right, and hold it down until you see the message 'slide to power off' the slide your fingers of the message from left to right until the phone switches off.
    This advice posted by my own problems with using the iPhone for the first time today.
    Having played around with the settings for a few hours I need to make comment that the iPhone is light years ahead of its competition.

  • I have a new iphone 4 but have a problem in that the network reads Sim not provisioned, please advise how to overcome this problem?

    My new iphone has been recognised by itunes, updated the software but unable to connect to a network, on checking "Network" the phone is searching but to no avail. In "About, Network, there is a statement reading SIM not provisioned". I have no idea what this refers to perhaps someone could advise? 

    I've managed to speak to someone who knew what he was talking about and having confirmed the original sim on my iPhone 3 followed by confirming the number on the iPhone 4 Micro Sim he advised that the new micro sim had not been activated. As a direct result we'll head off to one of their support offices to activate and hopefully pass on the iphone 3 to another of our employees after a reset of course!

  • HT1414 I restored my I phone 4 using Itunes, after that I can't access the icon any more I only got a message that says " ( Sim not Valid.) Only compatible SIM cards from supported carrier may be used to activate iphone.

    I restored my I phone 4 using Itunes, after that I can't access the icon any more I only got a message that says " ( Sim not Valid.) Only compatible SIM cards from supported carrier may be used to activate iphone. I need some proffesional help. Thanks

    "We're Sorry, Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care, Sim not vaild?"
    99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
    So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked.
