Let me be sure I understand this: you take the iPad overseas, insert whatever the relevant microsim is, but then still can't connect because you have to do something in iTunes?
Exactly that you have to update all necessary provider data
Something that I guess would have already been done for you on the AT&T, US version? Or something maybe that the gal at the Apple Store took care of?
No - I can't be done by ATT or anyone else except the *new (foreign) company* that you have chosen as provider.
You might do that on your own if you received that foreign micro-sim before travelling abroad.
Also carting along a laptop to do that would be a non starter. Wouldn't it work to just find a wifi spot and connect up that way?
What might work is entering all necessary data like apn and similar manually

  • Can't Set up to Apple Pay and can't find Apple Pay in my Passbook

    I have updated my iPod Touch 5th Gen. to iOS 8.1. I can't set up to Apple Pay in my Passbook and can't Find Apple Pay in my PassBook in my settings.
    How do I set this up for my iPod Touch?
    In My settings My PassBook app is not Listed but it is listed in the Notification section, but my Passbook app shows  in my iPod Touch? How do I add or can I add the Passbook app into my settings?
    How come my Passbook app isn't listed in directly in my settings like all the other apps?
    I really want to have and use the new Apple Pay in my iPod Touch, I had watched the Keynote and they said that the Apple Pay could be used on the iPod Touch 5 along with the other Apple mobile devices? If the Apple Pay can't be used on the iPod Touch 5 then this is very unfair, I know for a fact that they said that the Apple Pay could be used for the iPod Touch 5!?

    Who do we complain to and how do we get Apple to Allow the iPod Touch People to have access to Apple Pay?
    Sorry, you are wrong. Apple did NOT say Apple Pay would be available on all Apple devices. Apple SPECIFICALLY stated that Apple Pay is available ONLY on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Previous Apple devices, including your iPod Touch, simply do not have the hardware chip (called NFC) to make it possible.

  • Cell phone pay as you go - need advice

    Yikes... my head is spinning...I have seen so many phones the past few days ( and reviews etc ) on internet sites... I am totally lost.
    had a cell phone years ago when motorola made them first.. traxar or something ?? was expensive ( $800 ? ).. and had monthly ATT service unlimited ( also expensive ).
    that was during 1st season of " sopranos ".. long time ago.
    since then I've just had a land line...with fios... internet and tv included.
    now I need a cell phone again due to move to MN from NY. I have no clue how long it will take to get internet out there etc... in new apartment.
    my computers will get set up right away when I get there..and one has a wi fi card installed ...so if I can find wi fi thats not passwrd protected .... I could maybe use it ...for internet. BUT ( this is a big BUT ) some stuff I do ( banking etc ) on internet is security sensitive to ME.... and I dont want to get virus through some network or have my security breached.
    SOOOOO ... question is... can I get a pay as you go phone that also has features for basic email ( in and out ) and also a browser like firefox so I can do banking etc ???
    ORRRRR should I just get a simple phone with no other services.... and then use whatever I can find in MN until I get my stuff hooked up....( like library computer or something ).
    I am so confused by all the choices and different model phones etc... my head is spinning !!!

    Chuck,
    ============
    Will you be working in the TV/film industry in Minnesota?
    =============
    I dont think so. My first reaction to this question was : I would rather have a sharp stick in my eye.
    But giving it more thought, I realize unless I find some staff position with a producer where I actually add value to the enterprise I would rather not work freelance ( per diem ) anymore. I need more than that now, but also less. I need less " money" but I need more re: my contribution.. even if it's simply helping others do what they want.
    I have a feeling MN is not going to be full of opportunities to do that in the film and tv biz ( or tv commercials, industrials etc ) whether on shoot crews, construction, rigging, production, editing, sound, etc.  It may be that fishing is the main activity out there... as there are a lot of lakes where I'm going. They must have fish in them ?  It's weird but somehow " fishes " seems to be beckoning me to some new life out of the city etc.  First it was trout. Now its trout again... plus even MORE fish types... who knows.. I have no clue about fish.
    For example, what do fish actually DO ?  They are doing stuff under water and its hard to see them and what they actually DO all day long etc. To me its a mystery.
    Anyway, I am now having internet, phone and TV service installed at new apartment before I get there...made the arrangements this morning.... and the need for a cell phone etc has been greatly reduced... I might not get anything at all now for the actual " drive " out there.
    Will see what my money situation is in next week or so... might get cell phone but not the internet and email stuff just for the drive.  Every penny counts when moving and leaving the biz you've done for the last 30 plus years etc.

  • Can you put a pay as you go sim in a bill pay phone?

    I bought my brothers iphone and while he was a bill pay customer iam a pay as you go customer with the same carrier. so i thought i could just but my sim in his phone and use it.

I have a good signal and the phone says its connected to the carrier. Can any one tell me if the problem im having is because the phone was a bill pay phone or is it that the phone is just broke. Also i would just like to include that the phone seemed fine for the first few days i only started having this problem when the battery went completly dead during the night and turned off and when i charged it back up i started having problems. Ive tried reseting the phone setting it back up as new phone but still i have this problem. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. see below for the error i get when i make a phone call.

    Is the phone carrier locked? If so, to what carrier is it locked?
    Was the phone "unlocked"? If so, was it unlocked by the carrier it was originally locked to or by using some other method?
    What carrier are you trying to use?
    Are they on this list: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937
    If so, ask them.
    If not, you'll have to work it out with the carrier.

  • How to configure my extender if im on the pay-as-you go plan

    I purchased a samsung extender. It says on the page and in the manual to setup myself as a priority on my extender. After a number of discussions with support I was told that as a pay-as-you-go client *I CANNOT SET MYSELF AS A PRIORITY* on my extender.
    This is a real issue as im in a apt complex and it has been used by others so much I get bumped off my own extender.
    Im also not very happy about the internet usage by others on my home networking. At times thier 3G use is taking up a lot of my home network bandwidth and causing me to have slow internet.
    So I need to set my extender to have my cell as a priority. How do I do this ?
    I *REALLY* need to make it private as the internet use by others via 3G is using up all my home connection bandwidth so I experence extremely slow internet speeds on my home computer. Having these be open to the public is a insanely stupid thing when 3G speeds are involved as they will surely use up the bandwidth of the home connection by strangers.

    IF you had exactly $50 in your account and a portion of it was deducted for some sort of fee which you were assessed, dropping your account balance under $50, then you would have automatically been switched to the pay as you go plan.
    It is best to keep a bit above the amount due in your account for just this type of occurrence.
    Good luck.

  • Is it possible to lock a 3G sim pay as you go so you can chose to only use it once all WIFI possibi

    is it possible to lock a 3G sim card pay as you go so you can chose to only use it once all WIFI possibilities have been tested?

    You can turn off Cell Data in the Settings. Your iPad should then not be able to connect to your cell service until you turn that setting back on.

  • 02 PAY AS YOU GO ADVICE

    Hello
    i have just purchased a new iphone 32gb model on pay as you go, looking to spend 10 a month on top which i believe gives me 3oo texts messages and so many minutes free calls. However when i text my credit shows minus 10p per text, is this right?
    im used to contracts so not been on pay as you go for some time, but i presumed my credit would only go down once 300 texts have been used.
    Secondly following from charges how do i set up the phone to get the free internet?
    thanks

    The O2 site says...
    When you first get your iPhone, it'll be on Favourite Place. It gives you unlimited¹ calls to UK landlines and O2 mobiles from any postcode you choose. The more you top up, the more minutes you'll get:
    * Top up £10-£14 and get 500 minutes
    * Top up £15-£29 and get 1000 minutes
    * Top up £30+ and get unlimited minutes
    You will need to change your tariff if you want free texts.

  • Unable to use Curve 8320 with new pay as you go orange sim card

    Hey everyone. If someone knows the answer to my dilemma, please help.
    My dad just gave me his old Blackberry Curve 8320 Smartphone. He's hardly ever used it and it's been in a draw for a long while, anyway, today I bought an Orange pay-as-you-go sim card for it and having checked the blackberry is all charged up, have now tried it.
    No matter what option I pick on (wizard set-up, help, Call Log and all the others), it comes up with on the screen saying:
    My number
    Then my dad's old number and a six digit number.
    I don't know what to do and neither does my dad, so please help and thanks.

    Welcome to the forums j9wolf
    1. Was the phone previously with Orange? It may be locked to a specific carrier.
    2. Can you make calls with the phone even if it shows the wrong number on there?

  • Verizon iPhone 5s - in UK - enabled Global voice and data plan (pay as you go) - no service

    Situation is as stated in the title.  I have taken my iPhone 5S from the US to the UK, and before leaving I added the free pay as you go global feature to my plan.  However, now that I am here, the phone says "No Service" and I can do nothing with it related to voice or data unless I am on WiFi.  Live Chat is not working.  I tried dialing the 800 number from my international flip phone and it cannot recognize my push button menu selection tones and so hangs up on me (no provision for accessing a customer service rep or vioce recognition).
    Any thoughts on how I can get my phone up and running while I am here?

        Hi there, bob_e_iphone5s! I'm terribly sorry to see you're having trouble with service while travelling abroad. It's true that you'll have difficulty reaching our Customer Care team with the 800 number. But you can use this link http://vz.to/1k7RFqd to reach our Global Services team. There's even a number you can use to call from international locations, toll free!

  • Can I buy a phone verizon pay as you go and use it on my verizon contract?

    My verizon wireless broke and I don't have insurance and I'm six months before I can qualify to renew a contract, so I'm stocked in trying to get a second hand phone, but I saw the same model of my broken phone selling in flea bay from the verizon pay as you go. My question is, can I use one of those phones to be activated on my verizon? I would hate to buy the phone and later find out that verizon won't activate it.

  • How can I get a pay as you go nano sim for my Ipad mini celluler

    I was bought an Ipad Mini Cellular for Xmas but it did not come with a nano sim, I have contacted all servcie providers and no-one can provide me with a pay as you go nano sim, I can only get a contract nano sim, but I want a daily one like you can get for the Ipad and micro sim.
    All providers advertise the daily packages on the Apple website but when you speak to them they are not available.
    I feel like  have been mis sold the Ipad mini as I cannot use it with cellular daily plan, unless I requested a nano sim at time of purchase (which was not done), so now apple say they cant help, has anyone had a similar issue ?
