How was this iPhone unlocked?  Did a carrier unlock for you?
If you did the unlocking by jailbreaking there is nothing anyone on here can do to help you.

  • Need help extremely bad any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I have a video that was filmed in the dark and facing a car thats headlights were beaming straight at the camera I cant find a way to localize enough enhancement to the area directly next to the car that is facing the camera without also enhancing the headlights drowning out the detail im looking for immediatly next to the car. I also have been running into the problem of the video becoming very pixilated after applying effects while I replay the video after applying the effects.What do I do to solve these problems and if any further information is needed please ask. The video is from a cctv 240/320 resolution and filmed at 30fps Which raises another question that I will ask at a different time. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the forum.
    First, I would adjust the added Effect>Levels, and then add the Effect>Highlight & Shadow. Be sure to first turn OFF the Automatic setting (checkbox) for Highlight & Shadow, and then adjust, as is necessary. It is a very useful Effect.
    Good luck,

    Try restoring the iPhone to factory settings. If you are having difficult restoring, put the iPhone into Recovery Mode and see if that then works:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If not, or if a restore to factory settings does not fix the problem, then your iPhone may have a hardware problem. You can only get the iPhone serviced by Apple in Canada, so you will have to take the iPhone there or send it to someone you know in Canada who can get the iPhone serviced and send it back to you. The only option for getting service in Pakistan would be to pay some unauthorized repair shop to attempt a repair, after which Apple will no longer provide any service even in Canada.

  • I have two problems with my 2012 13" MacBook Pro. 1. Gray screen shows at startup  2. Randomly disconnects from network. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I have two problems with my 2012 13” MacBook Pro.
    Gray screen shows at startup
    Randomly disconnects from network.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    First, open Terminal in your Utilities folder and paste this into the prompt line:
    sudo update_dyld_shared_cache
    Press RETURN. You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed to the screen. Press RETURN again.
    Next, boot the computer into Safe Mode.
    Next, do the following:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

    Hello, I just downloaded ios 8 for my 4s iphone and now it will not connect to itunes on my mac. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hello wedge60,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning device recognition issues:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X
    Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
    If you haven't connected your iOS device to this computer before, unlock the device and tap Trust. Learn more about the Trust This Computer alert.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Restart your Mac.
    Make sure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    Install software updates on your Mac.
    If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.
    Check USB connections. iOS devices need USB 2.0 to work properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, check the computer's specifications.
    Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
    Try another USB cable.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    BobbyD

    It appears as if my startup disk has been reversed and not using the fusion ssd portion as it should.  At least its now reversed as to what it used to be originally before.  the 128gb ssd used to be on top.  Is my mac booting fusion correctly?  Thank you for responding as I was about to reformat.

  • When I copy a CD onto my macbook pro I sometimes get several songs that are "out" of the album.  How do I get them all together in one album?  Any help will be much appreciated!

    When I copy a CD onto my macbook pro I sometimes get several songs that are "out" of the album.  How do I get them all together in one album?  Any help will be much appreciated as I cannot seem to find the solution to this problem in the troubleshooting section of iTunes.

    Generally all you need do is give tracks from the same album a common Album Artist. See Grouping tracks into albums. The images need an update but the basic info. still holds.

    OR use this method
    1. Press-hold the Home button (big circle below the screen)and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
    2. Continue holding both buttons (Ignore the"Slide to power off") until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart.
    3.You may let go when you see the silver Applelogo.

    You can find authorized Apple dealers in Abu Dhabi by clicking here. They can answer purchase questions and most can handle warranty service.
    By the way, this forum is for questions about the iPod touch, not the iPad. If you have questions specific to the iPad, it would be best to ask them in the iPad forum.

    That message occurs when updating a phone that was hacked to be used with your network.  Upgrading the phone has re-locked it to it's rightful carrier.  You will need a SIM from the original carrier to proceed.

  • Help with Nokia E63 says SIM card not valid after ...

    Hi,
    I moved to France from UK and just unlocked my Nokia E63 with a code given to me by my UK provider Virgin. Phone is definately unlocked. My French provider (Lefrenchmobile) have given me a new sim. When I put in the SIM and turn on my phone I have to enter the SIM PIN, and do this and get an accepted message. Then phone says SIM card not valid, and won't do anything. What can I do? If I put my virgin SIM back in then it works fine.

    Have you double checked if your phone is compatible with the new operator's network? Just simply tell the model to their customer services, they should be able to determine the compatibility.

    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up

  • Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

    Can anyone help me, I have an unlock code off vodafone to change networks. And I'm stuck in what to do now I have the code. If anyone can help it will be much appreciated. Thanks Kelly.

    Unlock 'codes' are not provided for unlocking iPhones. Whatever they have given you is useless.
    Once Vodafone have confirmed your iPhone is unlocked, you connect it to iTunes on your computer for the actual unlocking to take place. iTunes will show a Congratulations message on screen when the unlock is done.
    No codes are required.
