    Do you just want to delete the music or wipe the whole phone since you've switched to the other one?
    If you plug the old iPhone into your computer you can remove stuff via iTunes or remove stuff directly from the iPhone too.

    Yes. If you buy a WiFi+3G ipad (GSM or AT&T) in the US you can use microSIMs from other countries also. There are very few iPads (usually purchased as part of a subsidized package with a service provider) that are locked.

  • If you switch your sim card from your regular phone to the iphone will it affect the phone bill?

    If you have a smartphone data plan it wouln't change it. Otherwise it would force you to choose a smartphone plan. But why don't you just call AT&T and ask? And why do you want to use your old SIM? You can just activate the iPhone with its SIM if the phone is new, and if it's used AT&T will give you a new SIM. Either way you will keep the same number.

  • HT201269 hi, i got the iphone 5s today and i tryed switching my sim card from my iphone 4s to my iphone 5s and my sim card wouldnt fit

    Hi, I just received the iphone 5s and Im trying to put the sim card from my 4s and it wont fit.......What do I have to do?

    If the new iphone did not cope with a SIM, then you have to get a SIM card from your carrier for your iphone.

  • Switching sim cards from different carriers while activating the phone

    I got an iPhone 5 from a friend and am trying to switch it to my number. She had AT&T and I obviously have Verizon. Even though I have a Verizon sim card, it wont let me activate the phone with the correct Sim card. Help?

    AT&T iPhones don't translate into Verizon compatibility.

  • Switching SIM cards from different carriers no longer works on an unlocked iphone4

    I am no longer able to switch SIM cards in my Iphone 4 which used to work before updating to iSO 6.0.
    Why is APPLE now locking the Iphones to a network when I specifically bought an unlocked iphone 4??
    Can anybody help me with this problem rather then I having to always re-activate the phone when I want to switch the SIM card having to use a PC and your Itunes account for re-activation??
    Thanks,
    MAX

    Where exactly did you buy the phone?

  • Can I use the same GSM sim card from my 4s with the iphone 5?

    I'm from the Bahamas and I wanted to know if I can still use my same GSM sim card in the new iphone 5, do the iphone 5 GSM sim cards have to get cut smaller like they did with the iphone 4s sim cards???

    If there is no other option, you can cut the old SIM and rub it down to make it thinner, but be prepared for it not to work and the SIM ruined..

  • Switch sim card from old phone into 3GS?

    Will it void my iPhone warranty if I take the sim card from my old phone (Nokia E62 if that matters) and put it in my new 3GS? I'll still have the data plan attached to my AT&T account, right? I want to switch sim card so I have all my contacts, but not if it will mess up my new iPhone.

    You need to use the SIM that comes with the iphone and get the iphone plan. IPhone and it's SIM are "married" for lack of a better term.
    You can import the contacts from your SIM into the iphone.

  • Will iPhone 5S (contract-free) work in Saudi?? With any carrier? And any sim card from any other countries (other than US)

    Will iPhone 5S (T-Mobile contract-free) work in Saudi? With any other carrier? And any sim card from any other countries (other than US)

    The phone will "work" with any standard GSM carrier.
    However, LTE and iPhone features like FaceTime, iMessage, Visual Voicemail may not work unless you use a carrier that officially supports iPhones.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Any BB can be used on any carrier that runs the same radio frequencies that the BB is capable of (and I've no idea if your's are such). But, to bring a BB onto a carrier network that they did not sell to you, there are several hurdles to cross:
    1) The carrier must say "yes" to the fact...they own their network and have every right to say what devices will be allowed to connect to it. If they say "no", then that's the end of it.
    2) You must be sure that your BB is properly unlocked from it's originally manufactured-for carrier...see this helpful thread for details:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/General-BlackBerry-Functions-and/Unlocking-your-BlackBerry-Gu...
    3) You must get all of your voice level services functioning on the carrier, before you even try anything about data...further, if your BB PIN remains registered with any carrier BIS system, no other carrier will be able to create a BIS account for it. But, if you leave the other carrier BIS account active, it is possible (not guaranteed!) that your BB could receive BIS services from your original carrier while SIM-connected to a different carrier.
    4) You must subscribe, from the carrier, to an adequate data plan to enable the BB-proprietary services you desire
    5a) If the carrier directly supports your specific model BB, then you can proceed with registering the BB onto their network, generating the proper Service Book delivery to your BB, and proceeding to function.
    5b) But, if the carrier does not directly support your specific model number of BB, then the challenges are much greater as most carrier systems will not deliver, to the BB, the necessary service books to enable the BB-proprietary data services, even if you do subscribe to them.
    So, depending on all of that, your BB may or may not ever fully function on that carrier network. It can be quite tricky to accomplish, especially if 5b applies. So take a look at all of that and decide how you wish to proceed. Most folks wind up just buying a new BB if 5b applies.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Swapping SIM cards from a 3G phone?

    Hello all,
    I'm in a bind with my current IPhone 3G and need your opinion. My 3G is on it's last legs, the "Genius" at the Apple store confirmed it...It's having hardware issues and needs to be replaced.
    My issue is that I'm not elligible for an IPhone 4 upgrade till September, but I need to get a new phone since I use it primarily for work. I was thinking about doing this, please let me know if it will work:
    Instead of waiting till September to upgrade my phone, I'll add a new line to my existing family plan which will let me get the new 4g for the $199 price. My question is this...can I take the SIM card from my existing 3G phone and plug it into my new 4G phone and retain the same phone number? Or am I stuck with having to use a new phone number on the new phone?
    Any help is appreciated.

    "I've been on the phone multiple times with AT&T, they wont budge and upgrade my IPhone early"
    Call them and tell them that you want to get an iphone for a new line, then you want to switch phones between the phone numbers. They should be able to help, although (as provided ) you will have to pay for two data plans.
