SIM Card Stuck Please Help
I inserted my original iphone sim card into my brand new 3g and am trying to get it back out, but it isn't popping out now. Please tell me that I didn't just break the phone already. Help please.
moochieh,
Did you fit the SIM card into the SIM tray prior to inserting it? I've seen situations where accidentally inserting the SIM without the tray can result in this.
Here is an article the outlines the process of removing it (giving you an idea of reinserting it as well):

If your still can't manage to remove the SIM to reinsert it, you can always visit an Apple Store your area and they should be able to help: http://www.apple.com/retail/
Hope this helps,
Raleigh

Nokia N8 sim card problem please help!!
I have been the proud owner of a Nokia N8 for about 9 months now without any problems or issues jus some random bugs...since N8 is a troubled device as we all know. But anyways jus now it has come up with lots of issues...at first my phone started to restart as soon as the phone started up. Even before all the apps loaded up and i tried around 15 times to switch off and start and stuff. But to no avail...so i went on some forums and blogs and got some tips like resetting it by holding down the power button for 8 secs and everything but still the same problem. Now, I removed my sim card and put in a different one and VOILA it worked!!! No restart so I thought maybe the older sim was faulty. but as i put the old sim in another phone...it worked in that phone! I was dumbfounded as the sim was working on my n8 before toO! ......so i just ignored it and i used the other sim in my n8 but not for long after half an hour the phone was not starting up sim card or no sim card. so i flashed my phone to the official Symbian Anna and i tried booting up without a sim card and the phone works properly. but as soon as I put in the sim card and switch the profile to normal mode..the phone freezes for about 5-6 seconds and reboots only to find my phone in offline mode again and same problem. I have tried changing sim cards nd memory cards, reset, reflash, format the mass memory, and everything else possible but in vain. The problem still exists!! Can anyone please help me as Im very fond of the phone and I dont want to send it to the service center as they would come up with some lame excuses + i hav lost my warranty card!! Please help....and btw the phone works flawlessly without a sim card! And also, in offline mode when i switch on the bluetooth...the phone freezes and restarts! Evn the WLAN keeps on searching for network and doesnt find any even though there is! Any help would be appreciated... thank you!
Just want to say "I dont have my warranty card"
No official Nokia care point will say this as they can check the warranty satus online using your IMEI number- if they do not do this, either insist they do or report them to nokia care direct and lodge a complaint. (0845 045 55 55 from the UK)
Even if the warranty has expired online, this can be extended if you can provide a proof of purchase date. This can be a delivery reciept if you bought online, or your high street retailor will be able to provide you with a copy if you ask them- even your original service agreement should be enough. Remember you get a full 2 years warranty with all Nokia handsets.
Nokia Care are there to help, not to make things difficult for you. They go through untold amounts of training to ensure you get your handset back as soon as possible in a fully working order.
I feel bad you feel such reluctance to contact a care centre, Nokia have gone to massive efforts to provide consumers with this kind of readily available support.
If you are in the UK and your local care centre is not helping you I would suggest you call the one i use, they will give you all the advice you need 01242 539539 (i hope giving out this info is ok on the forums) -
i accidentally locked my sim card on my iphone 4s and i need a PUK code. I called customer support and they said i didn't need the sim card so i could remove it. I really would just like to reset the code. Please help!
Note you do not need a currently working SIM, only one that was activated at some time in the past on the phone's locked network. It can also be a currently working SIM from another phone; it is only needed for a few minutes. You can also, as you suggest, bu a prepaid SIM, but that will cost you the minimum for a prepaid SIM with your carrier.

I upgraded my 3gs to the iOS5 software, but it keeps telling me on my iphone and my itunes that it cannot activate my iphone! Then my iTunes said there is no SIM card installed. HELP! I can't seem to even restore, which is what I was told to do by the Apple Store.
Hi there,
if your phone has ever been replaced by Apple (within or outside of warranty), have Apple check their records to which carrier your iPhone (its IMEI number) is currently locked to.
If it is locked to any other than the carrier you have your SIM-card from, ask the folks at Apple to have your phone's lock adjusted to your carrier. Once that is done, there is a good chance that your phone will work again.
Hope this helps,

HT5035 I had to change my id & have lost my gift card balance please help?
I had to change my id & have lost my gift card balance please help?
Did you change the Apple ID for an existing account? Or did you create a new Apple ID? If you created a new Apple ID, your balance will still be tied to the old account and you'll have to log into the iTunes Store using that old account to spend the balance. If you changed the ID on an existing account and can no longer see a credit balance, go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

I have an account from Australia but I now live in Switzerland. I bought a Swiss Gift Card but I can't redeem it because I have 41 cents left from my Australian Gift Card. Please help me !
The only way to get rid of those little leftover balances is to make a request to iTunes Customer Service:

Once they get it zeroed out, you will be able to enter your new Swiss billing credentials. -
Alright, well my dumbass roommate decided to plug in his super nintendo to my TV@nywhere card. To make a long story short, he messed something up. The computer wouldnt boot. It would get to the windows screen and freeze. I formatted, problem was no more, untill I installed the VGA drivers.
So now I cant do anythign with my screen, if I install the drivers, it wont boot.
Now I plan on just getting a new VGA card. Was looking at some nVidia products, but I am uncertain what to get. I want to spend $50 or less (eBay).
I have the MSI 651 MEGA PC. It says it has a APG 4x x1 slot on board, so I was just wondering what suggestions you guys had for a new card. Please help out if possible, thanks!Try the second hand ATI 9600XT.

I have got an iPhone MC605J version 6.0 soft bank iphon 4 but unable to use it in India. I am trying to use Airtel sim but the phone is showing invalid sim. So please help me out to unlock it.
No one here can help you, & Apple can't/won't help you. Fact is, there is no way to get that iPhone officially unlocked. Only Softbank can authorize the official unlocking of your phone, but they won't. Softbank does not offer official unlocking for any iPhone.
It is what it is.
