Sim for ipad

On 'compare ipad models' page it shows the various compatible SIM cards for each model. How do u use a sim with ipad? I can't see anywhere u can insert a sim. Any info greatly appreciated. Apologies in advance if this is a really stupid question but having seen it on the Apple website I'm confused.
Thanks

You cannot use SIM card on Wi-Fi only iPad. They do not have SIM tray.

Can I use CDMA sim or GSM sim for iPad 2 wifi+3G ?

Can I use CDMA sim or GSM sim for iPad 2 wifi+3G ?

Since the CDMA protocol does not use a SIM, I'm going with "in order to use a SIM, you must use the GSM protocol".

3 Network PAYG SIM for iPad

When I bought my iPad 3 months ago I got a PAYG SIM card from 3 that gave me a 3GB allowance lasting for 3 months for £20.49 which has suited me just fine as I haven't used up anywhere near 3GB as I tend to use WiFi connections most of the time. Now it has expired I was intending to top up the card with exactly the same allowance, but when I try to do so directly from the iPad the only options I get are Pay Per Day 500MB £2.99, or Pay Per Month @ £10/1GB, £15/3GB or £25/7GB but no option to buy 3GB that lasts up to 3 months as I had to start with. If I go to the main 3 shop on-line I can buy another SIM at the same price I paid initially, which may well be the easiest solution, but it seems a little bizarre that I can't just top up the SIM I have installed. Anyone else noticed this

In case anyone's interested - I called into a local 3 Store to find out how to top up my SIM card to give me another 3GB for 3 months @£20.49 and apparently you can't so had to buy another SIM card - weird!

Can I use any sim for iPad

I have a contract with 02 but am in India and want to use a local sim. Will it lock my iPad

If it's a cellular model iPad, yes. You can't use a SIM card on a Wi-Fi only iPad.

Sim card too big for ipad air?

i have taken delivery today of a new ipad air but even the mini simcard seems too big for the holder, is it safe to still put it in?

No. The iPad Air uses a Nano Sim. A Mini sim will not fit in the tray.
You need to talk to your Cellular carrier and have them give you a nano sim for the new iPad.

Where do I put the micro sim for the iPad , I cant find any where to put the card.

What model is your iPad? (iPad, iPad 2 or New iPad). Did you get the AT&T or Verizon model? If you got the Verizon model, it doesn't have a SIM slot.

HT5163 where do I get a SIM card tool for iPad 3? My cellular data doesn't work now that I downloaded iOS6. Instructions are to remove SIM card and then reinsert and it SHOULD work.

Where di I get a SIM card tool for iPad 3? My cellular data doesn't work now tht I downloaded iOS6.1. Instructions tell me to remove SIM card and then return. Will that work? Verizon tells me it's an Apple issue.

I did that but was intimidated. With your adivce I was more aggressive and it popped open. And I removed and replaced. It works. Thanks!

ok, I did, and it said again congrats your iPhone is unlocked, but, when it said there was a new carrier update, I cancelled it, but, it asked me again, I cancelled again, I guess I'm scared it will lock it again if I allow the carrier update.
Oh, there it goes again, this time on the phone, arg. I hit update, I hope it doesn't freak out.
I'm glad I didn't destroy the SIM like I almost did. But, it will come out again, longer battery life with the cell portion turned off.

IPad: Any advice on getting a pre-loaded Sim for use overseas (Europe)?

iPad: Any advice on getting a pre-loaded Sim for use overseas (Europe)?

Thanks, I thought this was the case, checking to see if anything had changed. Spain is the country in question. We previously were not able to obtain a Sim there but that may have been because of a carrier or individual employee problem. Will certainly try again next time (we did get a carrier Sim successfully in Italy one time). Cheers

No SIM on iPad. Tried different cards, same thing. Updated and multiple reboots have solved the problem. IPad fault?

No Sim on iPad. Tried different cards, same thing. Updated iOS and multiple reboots, no luck. iPad fault? What do I do now, ask for replacement?

Apple has acknowledged that the "no sim card" message has been a problem for some users. iOS 5.1 is reported by MacWorld to resolve this issue. 5.1 is in development and a beta version has been seeded to developers. In the meant time I suggest contacting Apple.

Can someone tell me what settings I need for ipad texting. Went to Mexico and now can't get the texting to work at all on ipad. Thanls

Can someone tell me what settings I need for ipad texting. I went to Mexico and when I returned the texting does not work on my ipad. The support at Apple wanted to charge me to get info.
THanks

Can't address the problem directly, cause even though my iPad4 is Cell+Wi-Fi, I've never put a SIM in it and never had the need to text, SMS or iMessage, from it. When away from the office or home wireless network, I tether it off the iPhone. Skype, both text and video, work just fine thru the Wi-Fi link, though.
HOWEVER, when I was hashing out the contract details to get the iPhone 5 about 14 months ago at Telcel, the representative distinctly mentioned that both Visual Voicemail as well as iMessages would be included in the package and they would be mandatory cause "I was getting a (subsidized) Apple iPhone" on a 24 month leash. Then when the gizmo came out of its box for SIM installation and activation, she went thru the motions of making sure both were working properly. So I assume the carrier has some say in the matter.
