PLEASE HELP: Don't have an upgrade yet for my Verizon plan, If i just purchase an unlocked iphone 6 can i transfer the SIM card from my iphone 5s and itll work?
I have an existing 2 year verizon wireless plan, really want an iphone 6 and dont mind paying the 650. If i purchase an unlocked iphone 6 from apple online can i just transfer the sim card from my current phone (iphone 5s) to the unlocked iphone 6 and itll work?
Thank you!
If you purchase an unlocked phone from Apple, it will cost you $650 and it will only partially work on Verizon's network. So, your better off buying a phone at full retail from Verizon for the same $650. It will function properly and, as all Verizon iPhones are sold with the GSM side unlocked, you'll be able to use it on other networks later.

I have an 8GB iPhone 3GS on AT&T, and I wanted to purchase a 16GB version on eBay. Will I be able to just pop the SIM card out of the current iPhone 3GS into the new iPhone 3GS and have it work properly?
Yes, you will be able to use it provided that the 16GB version of 3GS is either factory unlocked or locked to AT&T network (in case of a carrier locked phone).

Can you take the SIM card from an IPad and transfer it to a NEW Ipad (not yet purchased) without any problems? Are there any complicated steps involved? This is for my boss.
Please let me know. Thanks in advance.Simple answer is YES.
The only caviat is for instance in the UK some iPads are locked to a specific network provider and therefore if the new iPad is locked then it will only work on the specific network it is locked to. -
My iPhone is from Japan and I want to activate it here in the Philippines because I'm living here. I have lost the original SIM from Softbank and replaced it with a new SIM card from Globe. How can I use the SIM card from Globe?
You cannot. The iPhone is locked to Softbank, and only they can unlock it. Problem is that Softbank will NOT unlock the phone, as they do not offer iPhone unlocking.
Buy an iPhone in the Phillipines.
PS Before you go on a rant at Apple, be aware that Apple does NOT unlock phones and they do not set unlocking policies. The carriers (Softbank in this case) set the unlocking policy. -
i have switched the sim card from one iphone to a different one, and i added my music from my old phone to the used one, now the old music on the used phone won't delete. im really frustrated and annoyed please help
Do you just want to delete the music or wipe the whole phone since you've switched to the other one?
If you plug the old iPhone into your computer you can remove stuff via iTunes or remove stuff directly from the iPhone too. -
I want to setup LR on my new laptop. I have the serial number from my latest purchase but not the original purchase of LR3. How can I recover the serial number from my original LR purchase?
If you did register it back then, open your Adobe account with your Adobe ID and you will find it there: Find your serial number quickly
If you still have it installed, open the System info in Help menu or look here:

My iphone5 was stolen this weekend. I have a passcode and the find my iphone app has been activated. The phone hasn't been turned on yet. The police reccomends keeping the app on for a few days to see if they turn it on. I read that the sim card can be removed and the phone will be wiped. Although I would love to get my phone back, I am more concerned with my information being accessed. Is it possible to remove the sim card? If so, can they insert the sim card in another phone and access the information that way or is it safe as long as there is a passcode? Any information will help, thank you.
Since your phone was running iOS 7.0, the phone will be useless to anyone but you. Activation Lock will prevent the phone from being re-activated unless your Apple ID/Password is known.
Your phone is now useless, except as a paperweight. -
if you have iPhone4 and can you take out the sim card from iPhone4 and transfer it in to new iPhone4s?
Under the circumstances this will probably considered a dumb question.
I currently have a jailbroken unlocked 3GS with a GoPhone plan. Works great. I am considering upgrading to a new factory unlocked 4S. Will I be able to swap in my current SIM card and go? -
I just purchased a new iphone 4S and I'm trying to loan some music from itunes. I keep getting a message that says not enough space on my phone. I checked my phone and I have 5.1G available. I deselected all the songs on my itunes to try and get it to sync and I keep getting the same message. Any tips?
Hey csumner1,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are receiving a "Not enough free space" alert when attempting to sync your new iPhone 4s. The following article may help to resolve your issue:
iOS: "Not enough free space" alert when trying to sync
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1503
Resolution
Try disconnecting and reconnecting your device, then syncing again to solve this issue.
Orphaned files may remain on your iOS device if it is physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, the Capacity indicator in iTunes may report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device. To resolve this issue:
1. Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
2. Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
3. Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
4. Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
- If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 5.
5. Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device. To do this:
- Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
- Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
- Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
- Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes.
If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 6.
6. Restore using iTunes.
Thanks,

I have two phones, one (4S) with Bell in Canada, the other (5, soon enough) with ATT in the US. Since I spend more time in Canada, I'd rather the 5 up there. Can I swap the sim cards? Neither phone is unlocked.
iphone 5 will use nanosim instead of microsim so that one won't work
you could check you with carrier to see if they will give you another sim though but I dunno if the ATT 5 will have the right data bands so you might not get LTE or w/e -
I just bought an unlocked Iphone 4s and I wanna know if I need to take an Iphone plan or a 30$ plan could be enough and also if I only use it on wi-fi do I need to have datas in my plan?
The iPhone is designed to always have an internet connection as long as there is an available wi-fi network you have access to, or cellular reception. MMS requires a data connection with your cell phone carrier, which can't be exchanged over wi-fi. If your carrier supports visual voicemail with the iPhone, visual voicemail messages are downloaded to the iPhone via the carrier's cellular data or internet network only, not via wi-fi. If you ever need to make use of the Find My iPhone feature, it will be worthless without a data connection with your carrier's cellular network.
If you don't plan on having a data plan or you can't afford it, your money was wasted purchasing an iPhone. This likely makes no difference since most carriers require a data plan with the iPhone. -
Will the sim card from my 5 work in the 6?
Will the SIM card from my iphone5 work in an iPhone 6?
The iPhone 4s uses a Micro SIM and the iPhone 6 uses a Nano SIM. The Nano SIM is smaller and thinner, so you should get a new SIM, but some customers have been able to trim their Micro SIM down and gotten it to work in the newer iPhones. It is a snug fit since it is also thicker, so I would suggest getting a new SIM if you can.

I have a mifi 2200. Can I use the sim card in it in my new jetpack?
I have a mifi 2200. Can I use the sim card in it in my new jetpack?
Hi Mike, congrats on the new jetpack! As evdotech mentioned, the MiFi 2200 does not use SIM cards because it is a 3G device. You would need a new SIM card for your jetpack. You can receive a software update in a VZW corporate store or by choosing Activate or Switch Device on My Verizon. This will ask for the SIM card number or ask if you need one mailed.
I hope that helps!

I just installed Firefox 5. How can I remove the Bing search from the address bar. I don't want to see Bing at all. I tired the Firefox options, right-clicking on the search field and the toolbar selection drop-down but could not find a way to get rid of that unwanted search window.
*'''at the bottom of firefox''' there is a weird looking greenish circle with a lightning bolt in it*
1. click it and hover over to '''PREFERENCES'''.
2. click the second circle that say's '''BING.'''
3. '''Un-check''' both boxes.
4. you're done :)
Note: it's not going to show the google symbol encrypt when you open a new tab it's just going to automatically use google as a search engine.
