  • IPhone doesn't recognize my SIM Card after update to iOS 5.1

    I updated my iOS to 5.1 yesterday and after that my iPhone doesn't recognize my SIM Card. What has happened to my iPhone?

    It was probably jailbroken or hacked to unlock it. If that's the case it is now bricked. You may be able to find an answer on Google, but you cannot get help here.

  • My iphone 4s doesn't recognize my SIM card

    I went to trade 4S for 5C and couldn't get credit for it because I couldn't wipe phone. Can I get a functioning SIM card to trade in otherwise good phone? It looks brand new and is a year old.

        Hello greg5844.
    I'm sorry you are having difficulty trading in your phone. The iPhone 4S doesn't require a SIM card to function but does have the option for an optional Global SIM card. If you are trying to erase your personal information from your iPhone 4S please make sure you turn off iCloud first (Settings>iCloud) and then go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings.

  • My iphone 4s (ios 6.1) doesn't recognize my sim card with 3g

    I've been using my iphone's 3g for 2 weeks, but now it stopped working, whenever the 3g logo appears on top of the screen my phone stop working, i can't even recieve calls or send a text messeage, but when the E appears (EDGE i think) the phone works or either without the mobile internet, maybe is the sim card, i cut my old sim manually to turn it to a micro-sim, or the software, i heard that iOS 6.1 crashes a lot, i'm using an argentinian carrier

    Hello, ClayJM.
    Good job on your attempts to troubleshoot the issue already. Wanted to point out a good article I found:
    iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    Although it states it's for purchased apps it has specific steps to try that might still be helpful in your situation. Specifically Steps 4 and 5 have always been useful for me:
    4. Restart the application
    If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app:
    Press the Home button to return to the Home screen.
    Double-tap the Home button to display recent apps.
    Tap and hold the affected app until the red minus appears.
    Tap the red minus to quit the app.
    Press the Home button, then restart the app.
    5. Restart your device
    Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.
    Thanks for reaching out to us on Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • I connected my ipad to a mac computer to stream a video, and now it doesn't recognize my sim card! Help!

    I had a movie in my ipad and wanted to see it on the tv. So i connected it to a friend's mac. Automatically when i connected it, itunes (his itunes) asked my for the name of the ipad and other stuff i don't remember.  We were able to see the movie but when i disconected the ipad  it says "No sim" even if the sim card is where it always is. Now i don't have any internet! (i'm using an ipad 2)
    does anyone know what happened?

    Download iTunes for your computer, by going to http://apple.com/iTunes Then connect it to iTunes and see what happens. If nothing happens try doing hard reset, by pressing the home and wake/sleep button, ignore the red slider, and continue pressing until it turns off and turns back on.

  • I restored my iphone 4s and now doesn't recognise the sim card what can i do?

    Was your iPhone hacked/jailbroken to be unlocked?
    If so, installing an iOS update on an iPhone that was hacked to be unlocked or restoring such an iPhone with iTunes re-locks the iPhone to the carrier the iPhone was sold as carrier locked with.
    What is the exact error message - the SIM card is not supported?

    after updating to iOS 6.0.1 my iphone 3s won't recognize my SIM card. i updated my phone through iTunes, what happened to my phone?

    If it now says "invalid" or "unsupported" SIM, your iPhone was almost certainly hacked to unlock it from the original cell carrier and updating has now removed that hack and the iPhone has relocked back to that original carrier. You will have to contact that carrier and ask if it would be possible to get your iPhone officially unlocked.
    Regards.

    Talk to the carrier it is locked to. They are the only ones that can unlock it.

  • I am to purchase a second hand iphone 4. but the seller says it can't be used as a phone as it doesn't have a sim card slot. he says he is not aware if the phone is unlocked or not... should i buy this phone??

    Depends
    If you need a cellphone then No.
    If he wants more than $1 then No.
    I would suggest that you buy an iPod Touch from Apple.

  • What can I do if my Iphone doesn't read the SIM card?

    I bought an Iphone 4S in France because I had a gift card but now I live in Italy and It doesn't read my Sim card. Someone told me that I have to unlock It, but I don't know if it is true. What can I do?

    Contact the wireless carrier that the iPhone is locked to and
    ask them if they offer unlocking and if you qualify. Only the
    wireless carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it.

  • Can i use a iphone 5s as an ipod that was once activated phone. The phone still has its orgional sim card in it?

    How can i use a once activated iphone 5s as ipod? It still has its original sim card in the phone?

    It is stating that the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iphone to itunes.
    I simply took out the Sim and used mine purely as an iPod. Are you wishing to use the iTunes Store and App Store as well? In that case, forget what I said.

  • After updating to iOS 5, my Iphone 4 is not reading my SIM Card.  I went to ATT and got a brand new SIM Card, and it still hasn't worked. Can you help??

    After updating my iphone 4 to iOS 5, it refused to read my att SIM Card.  I went to the Apple store (Lennox Mall, Atlanta Georgia) for help, they told me that it was an Att problem, and needed me to get a brand new Sim Card from Att.  I went to Att and replaced my SIM Card to a new one.  I later returned to the Apple store, but the phone still didn't work.  The apple techs blamed the att network, and stated I needed to go home and wait for 24-48 hrs, and retry the att network again, and hopefully the phone will work.  The next option they gave me was to pay $200.00 to get a replacement because my phone was out of warranty.
    So I basically I have a phone which has never been dropped, not abused, no water damage or what so ever.  Prior to my IOS 5 update, it worked perfectly without any problems.  Now, that its not working as a result of either Apple's or Att's fault, no one seems to be helping or standing behing their product.  Both parties are blaming each other for the problem.  Can someone help??

    I've seen a number of reports of this on here. In most cases where people took their phones in to the Apple store, they were given a replacement, even if the phone was out of warranty.

  • IPhone WiFi doesn't work without SIM card?

    So today I took the SIM card out of my old 2G phone (which I use as a iPod Touch). I noticed that it no longer worked on WiFi. Once I put the SIM card back in, it worked again.
    It's not a big deal (just leave the old SIM card in), but is that behaviour expected?

    Hey Greg,
    You may want to reset network settings or restore the iPhone.
    I just took the SIM out of an iPhone 3G and an original iPhone. They were both able to browse web pages without the SIM inserted.
