Sim not supported,but was sent micro sim thats compatable with iphone ..now what?
Have iphone 4 with no sim card. so contacted vodafone whom i have a contract with and arranged to transfer my existing mob num to a micro sim card to use in apple iphone4 . Once received connected to itunes .. picked up the iphone but said iphone was in recovery mode and click on restore. I have done that loads of times now and everytime it ends saying your sim is not compatable. Rang Vodafone as was so cross as the sim also wouldn't work in my old phone either ! even when clicked into the normal sim sized card.
Anyway , that was yesterday and was told don't worry your micro sim isn't activated correctly yet ..remove sim .. wait 24hours ,put sim back in and it will work . well it hasn't made the slightest bit of difference except when i put the microsim back in old phone .. it now works on that!
can anyone tell me have i done anything wrong? ... do i need to download any software first ? Would it make any difference if itunes were already installed on home pc to under my partners name? .. I have tried installing itunes to link to just me but thats just reverting back to itunes already installed !
if i took to a mob shop .. could they help ? hope someone can give me some answers
Where did you get the phone. An "unsupported SIM" message indicates the phone is locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use. ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it. DO NOT take it to a mobile phone shop that tell you they can unlock it. They can not legitimately do so. All they can do is hack/jailbreak the phone. This will void any warranty as well as forteit your right to support from Apple or on these forums. It can also cause stability and security problems and you will NOT be able to update the OS without re-locking it.

My iPhone says that my charger is not supported, but it's the charger that came with my phone. Is there any way I can solve this issue?
Try cleaning out the phone's port, of pocket fluff and such. Carefully. And check the mains adapter similarly, but less likely.

After my friend locked me out of my iPhone with too many wrong password attempts I restored my iPhone via recovery mode and now it is showing that picture of a cable leading towards itunes, and itunes says the sim is not supported but it is the original sim. How do I fix this?
Something went wrong with the update, this can and does happen with every version of iOS.
There is nothing wrong with the update.
Simply restore the device via iTunes on the computer.
If iTunes is stating it will take hours to update, that indicates an extremely slow Internet connection and is likely the reason the OTA update failed. -

IPhone 5 unlocked for months, after firmware restore "SIM not supported error"
I purchased a 16GB iPhone 5 a month after initial release from an authorized retialer in Austria, it was factory unlocked (at least I thought so) and has been working wonderful since purchase. I have used it in multiple countries and used many different SIMs. I tried doing a full restore on 6.1.4 and now I receive the "SIM not supported" errror. I tried many SIMs that have previously worked, but no luck. I did a search and according to IMEI.info, it is locked to the Austrian A1 carrier. It seems it went from being unlocked to locked during the restore and now it is pretty much bricked, as I can't get past the activation screen. Help please?
There should be no original carrier as it was factory unlocked. If IMEI.info says its locked to A1, would that certainly be correct? The phone was never even used with them.

Buying a used iPhone from unofficial place.
1.) Your iPhone maybe locked to a certain carrier.
2.) The sim may not be compatible.
3.) Maybe it was jailbroken.
Find out from the seller the 3 points I've mentioned. -

I need to setup 7800 Series IP Phones in the CUCM 8.6.2 which by default are not support but will work after install the software. Anyone have document from Cisco as I remember I seen once before.
Hi Ali,
I'll just add this reference to the good tips from my friend Manish (+5)
Support for the 7800 series in CUCM 8.6.2 was first added with this
Device Pack;
Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Device Package 8.6(2)(24104-1)Release Notes
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Device Package Release 8.6(2)
adds support for the Cisco IP Phones
7821, 7841, and 7861 running SIP firmware release 10.1(1).
The steps are in this doc
http://www.cisco.com/web/software/282074299/107528/cmterm-devicepack-8.6.2.24104-1_Readme.pdf
You might as well install the latest 8.6.2 Device pack

Cheers!

New GPU not supported but old one is...
About a year ago I upgraded my edit suite with 24GB RaM and 3 - nVidia GeForce GTX 660Ti GPUs in SLI to allow for faster rendering in 3D projects. I have an old Quadro FX 5800 left over from the upgrade. I went to tech support and sent an email into a black hole asking the following questions.
Why is this card that runs circles around my old card not supported?
Is there an update that might be in the works in the near future?
The main reason for upgraded to CC was to enable GPU acceleration on renders. So far, I'm not all that impressed with the move from CS5 "all the way" to CC other than getting rid of Soundbooth for Audition.Adobe Premiere CC will enable the GPU acceleration whether the card is on the supported list or not. It just gives you a warning that it's not. The supported list is simply the video cards Adobe ahs tested themselves. That doesn't mean they are the only cards that will work. Adobe updates the supported list on occasion depending on the priority of testing the hardware. Once the higher end Geforce cards are supported the mid level ones become a lower priority to validate since they likely will work as well.

MSI control center says MSI P67A-C45 is not supported, but it is on the cd?
Hi Guys,
I'm having a very annoying issue with the MSI control center on my MSI P67A-C45.
When I try to run it says the motherboard is not supported, but the software was downloaded from MSI website under my motherboard model.
Another thing is that the Intel Management Engine Driver didn't run the installation saying my computer doesn't meet the minimum requirements? I'm running Windows 7 x86, core i5 2500K and 8GB ram
Any tips?

My Ipod was stolen and was not registered but was joined with an iTunes account can i find it?
If you did not configure FindmyIPod on it, I'm afraid you are out of luck. Report the theft to the local authorities and change the passwords to any and all accounts you have may used/accessed or configured on the iPod Touch.
