Needs to Activate and Unlock my i phone 4s.

Hello ,
My i phone is brand new , so how can i activate and unlock my i phone 4s to work all over the world with any network ?
need help .
hope to hear back from you soon.
thanks

Ask whoever you bought it from. If you purchased it directly from Apple, look at your reciept. Does it reference a carrier? Or does it say it's unlocked? If you purchased it from your carrier, ask them if it's locked or not and what you need to do to have it unlocked.
If you purchased it from an unauthorized source, it's hard to say what you got or where it came from.
Where are you and where, exactly, did you get this 'brand new' phone?

  • I have a meesage when my sim card in inserted, saying its the incorrect sim card and to activate and unlock my i phone 5 c to contact apple. how do i do this?

    i have a i phone 5 c and when inserting my sim card a message stating its the incorrect card and i need to insert the correct card or contact apple to unlock. the phone is from the USA and im in the UK. how do i contact apple to have the phone unlocked. ?

    Call Applecare in UK and see if they will tell the lock status and who it is locked to in US ,they may charge you
    The chances are that as the iPhone appears locked to a  US carrier,they  will not unlock it for you as you are not or have not ever been a customer
    Did you buy on eBay ? if so file a claim and get your money back
    you likely have a brick
    Apple do not lock iPhones and therefore do not unlock them
    Carriers lock the iPhones they sell as the are part of a package which subsidises the purchase price of the iphone

    Who is the carrier the iPhone is carrier locked with?
    If the carrier has a blacklist for lost/stolen cell phones, it would be the carrier you need to contact.

    Leave it alone for an hour and try the reset procedure again. Make sure you're using a genuine Apple charger & cable in a known good wall outlet. You can also try another cable if necessary, and make sure the charging area is clean and free of fluff & debris.

  • Need to correct and update my contacts' phone numbers

    I need to correct and update (or delete) my contacts' telephone number, but there seems to be no place to edit phone numbers or delete them, once they are in the list.
    Everything else seems fine, but I cannot delete old/wrong phone numbers.
    The Help docs make no mention of editing contacts, strangely.
    I am running Skype v5.8.0 on Mac OSX MountainLion. 
     

    The matter of contacts is a complicated one. Skype has a number of different contact types (Lync, Facebook, Skype, MSN/MSA, SkypeOut, AddressBook), and unfortunately some of them behave differently.
    The thing to know is this: you are not allowed to delete a contact's identity. This is the string or number that Skype uses to uniquely identify a contact. It makes some intuitive sense: you probably wouldn't expect to be able to view your friend's Skype profile and edit their Skype name. At the very least, if this were a limitation, you'd probably understand why that was so.
    Phone numbers in Skype work the same way. You can add and delete numbers to your heart's content AS LONG AS: (1) those numbers are not the identity number; (2) the contact type allows it (e.g. not Facebook, Lync, AB); and (3) they were added by you in Skype (not the Address Book).
    The situation that seems to be tripping people up in this thread is when you create a contact which has a phone number as its identity. These numbers are called SkypeOut contacts, because they will use the SkypeOut service to call over the PSTN network instead of VOIP. They can be created in the Add Contact page, or by using the little plus button in the History or Conversation views after you’ve already made a call to the number.
    Since Skype uses a phone number to refer to these SkypeOut contacts, and to save and recall history about them, you cannot remove that number. Skype wouldn’t know what to call this contact anymore without its identity. This is the behavior that tmcdanel was describing. You can change the number, but deleting it would lead to the contact itself (and all its other numbers and information) being deleted. And that may not what you were after.
    So, where does that leave us?
    If you have a SkypeOut contact which you want to change the number for, you can Edit the identity and change it. (It wasn’t always so: this feature was released about a year ago.)
    If you’ve added other numbers in the meantime and would like one of those to become the identity, you can rotate one of them in by copying the number, deleting it from further down the list and then pasting it into the identity field (the first one in the list on the contact info page).
    If you are never going to call this person again, and don’t have a new number for them, then you can delete the contact entirely. Do this by selecting the contact in the Contact List and pressing Delete. This won’t delete the history of calls and SMSes that you’ve made to that number, it will just remove the contact from your contact list. And if you ever you get a new number for them, you can add a new contact with the new number.
    What I do personally is try to use SkypeOut contacts sparingly. I always add a number to the person’s Skype contact if I can.
    I definitely recognize that this could be much simpler. Unfortunately, I can't provide a timeline for a more unified contact experience. But I thought people would want to know why it works the way it does at present. Hopefully this will give you a clear idea of how to use SkypeOut contacts as they exist today.

  • Need to Lock and unlock the fn key freely

    I just today purchased the HP g72-b66us notebook.  An MMO that I play uses the f # keys at the top of the keyboard for integral aspects of the game on a regular basis.  Thus far I have had to hold the fn key down and that hampers gameplay ability drasticly.  I'd like to be able to lock and unlock the fn key the same way one uses the number lock or caps lock.  Please advise.

    You Can disable that functionality by disabling "Action Keys Mode" in the BIOS...
    Here is the document, that will help you with it... http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02035108&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_US

  • I need my iphone 5 unlock

    I need to use my phone international and I need my iphone 5 unlock.

    If your phone has a passcode on it and the screen is non-responsive, there is nothing you can do to retrieve the data now. It is stuck on the phone.
    You can try importing the photos using Image Capture (Mac) or the scanner & camera wizard or equivalent for PC, but you may not be able to do so with the passcode on the phone.
    If you were backing up to iCloud, much of your data should be there and can be restored to the new phone.

  • Lock and Unlock a table:AFVU

    Hi Folks.
    I want to modify a standard table (AFVU )  with new user dates from User.For this,First I need to lock and unlock the table.
    When I am trying for the standard table lock object (EAFVU) ,it was not there in the system.
    Is there any way to find out the lock object for a particular table?
    How to proceed for this?
    Any Pointers are much helpful.

    Hi,
    Go to SE11 and display your table - do a where used list and select lock objects.
    I really hope when you say you are modifying a standard table you are only updating custom appends on that table, and not directly updating standard SAP fields...

    There is no such thing as an "unlock code" for an iPhone. It's done through iTunes after being approved by the carrier it is locked to.
    Go back to the carrier it is locked to and find out what the status is. If you paid someone else to unlock it, you got ripped off.

  • I bought an unlocked Iphone 3GS, I needed to update Ios5 and restored the settings for that which was not authorised for unlocke, but after that iphone is not getting activate and no sim card insatlled error is there. i m using local sim card in Pakistan

    You didn't buy an 'unlocked' iPhone 3GS - you bought a 'hacked' one.
    Updating to iOS 5 removed the hack and the unofficial unlock.
    All you can do is try to find out which network the phone is locked to and ask them if they can unlock it properly.
    Otherwise, sell it or throw it away and buy an officially unlocked phone from an official source.
