Purchased Iphone 3 from Apple store, came to put my sim card in but it wont work?

It isnt locked to any phone supplier, I have tried puttin an o2 sim card in but no one seems interested, help!

Does iTunes recognize the phone? If no, did you try to connect the phone in recovery mode iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to restore
More suggestions about the SIM not being recognized here: About swapping the SIM card

If I purchase Iphone 4s from apple store, Can I claim the stuff at "istudio" in my country when it has any problem? Or do I have to buy for the warranty as well?

If I purchase Iphone 4s from apple store, Can I claim the stuff at "istudio" in my country when it has any problem? Or do I have to buy for the warranty as well? I am deciding between ordering from apple store and buying from the representative.

Warranty is ONLY valid in the country where the device was originally sold by Apple.
The ONLY exception is for devices sold in the EU, as warranty and service can be obtained in any EU country.
The warranty on the iPhone is not International.

ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it. You will have to contact them. Since you are not the original purchaser of the phone and do not have service with whatever carrier it might be locked to, it is highly unlikely you will get it unlocked.
Since it was hacked to unlock it originally, it is highly likely that the phone will become a brick if you attempt to apply a legitimate unlock.
Actually, it is probably already a brick.
There is nothing we can suggest other than to google "iphone dfu mode" and try doing a restore in DFU mode to see if that can bring it back to life. It may. If so, you will then need to work with the carrier it's locked to or sell it and buy a new phone.

Legality aside (I'm not a lawyer and have no opinion on the matter) in order to make a purchase of an iPhone 5 you would need to travel to a country where they are for sale and purchase it there. Be sure to get one that is officially unlocked or you would not be able to use it with your cell carrier. Be sure that your carrier supports use of the iPhone before you buy. Also note that the warranty of the iPhone is only valid in the country of purchase.
Appe does not ship outside of the countries where it sells the phones.

Dear sir
I bought my iPhone 4 from Apple store in Charlotte N/C about 2years ago without contract.
Now I tried to upgrade it to iOS 7.0.4.but after that my phone not work with last sim card.
And invalid sim appeared.so I bought it without contract but it seems to be lock in my country
Please tell me whats the matter?
My phone serial no 86034HTCA4T
Modem firmware 04.12.09
Thanks

Without contract is not the same as unlocked. The update to iOS 7 relocked
the iPhone to the wireless carrier to which it was originally locked. You must
contact that wireless carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
If you used jailbreak or other hack to unlock the iPhone initially, the method
used may prevent a legitimate unlock from succeeding and may render your
iPhone unuseable.

TS1702 i purchased an app from apple store, an error occurred whilst downloading. I tried to reinstall it on my comp. but it reverts me back to PURCHASES & commands me to tap on INSTALL, but nothing happens. How can I solve the problem please???

I PURCHASED AN APPLICATION FROM APPLE STORE. AN ERROR OCCURRED WHILST DOWNLOADING IT. IT WANTS ME TO REVERT BACK TO PURCHASES IN ITUNES, AS SOON AS I TAP ON "INSTALL" IT SHOWS THE SAME MESSAGE AGAIN. HOW DO I SOLVE IT PLEASE? IT SHOWS ON MY STATEMENT THAT I PURCHASED THE APPLICATION?

Try redownloading the app directly to the iPod by:
]Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
It may be that iTunes is not signed into the account that purchased the app or that the computer is not authorized for that account.
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization

The error 1009 error is normally associated with a blocked country. There are a list of countries that Apple is not allowed to sell their software to due to US restrictions

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

I bought an iphone 5 from apple store in USA, can i use it overseas?

i bought an iphone 5 from apple store in USA, can i use it overseas, eg, China,?

Yes, but you will be using it in China with the international roaming feature.
There are no unlocked iPhone 5's being sold in the US at present so you can't use it with a local nano sim card. There will also be LTE frequency compatibility issues too.

Hi i dont know why i couldnt able to purchase any apps from apple store or in itunes store using my debit card with which i used to buy before ?

Hi i dont know why i couldnt able to purchase any apps from apple store or in itunes store using my debit card with which i used to buy before ?

I don't know why but I suspect you are located in the Indian sub continent. Debit cards appear to be a problem here and while many are accepted in other countries, India seems to be an exception. Go to ...
Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us ... and ask for help.

Mate, I'm trying to find out if it was shipped like that or not. If someone else has had the same issue then I can go back to Apple and have them look into it further. If not then as I said Vodafone is selling second hand phones and they will have to replace the phone.
Vodafone account manager is saying that he has never heard of anything like it.
So I'm left with one of 3 answers.
1: The phone was shipped like that so its a factory error.
2: The Apple genius doesn’t know what he's talking about then I can go back to the store and ask for a second opinion.
3: Vodafone is selling second hand phones as new.
I need to narrow it down so I can deal with the account manager appropriately
