Switching from blackberry to iphone what do i do

Hi
Just got iphone 5s, how do i switch the cell service over from blackberry

When you purchased the iPhone 5S, didn't you tell the vendor the cellular telephone number, etc.? It should be all set then. Just turn your iPhone on and follow the directions.

One thing you can try
Turn iMessage off on your phone
Reset your phone - no data loss
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Then activate iMessage and start a new conversation and see what happens

Switch from blackberry q10 to blackberry 9720

ive been trying to switch from blackberry q10 to 9720 with no luck.any help will be appreciated

Nevermind, I did some more searching, Googling, etc. and found out that BlackBerry is not able to be downgraded from 10 OS to earlier devices. A bit of a shame really. My boss had deciced he wants to go back to his 9900 and is expecting me to transfer all his data. Looks I've got a few hours worth of typing ahead of me.

The Switch from Android to iPhone

Hello everyone,
For about 4,5 years now, I have always been using Android smartphones. I have never regretted buying them and I have always loved them. The main things that made me choose for android were the freedom and customization. I have always been experimenting with different custom ROMs, trying to adjust the way I use my device exactly the way I wanted to. I had never even considered buying an Apple device.
About a year ago I was looking for a tablet. I went to the store to have a look at the different android tablets. In the store however, I noticed the android tablets not running nearly as smooth as my phones always had. Just for the heck of it I also took a look at the iPads and I was intrigued by how smooth they ran. A lot of internet research and store visits eventually made me choose the iPad mini. I did not only want a smoothly running device, I also wanted to try out a different operating system. Furthermore, I also somehow wanted to reserve the endless customization and messing around with different ROMs for my phone. I wanted the tablet just to run smoothly and work. Apart for a slight image retention problem, my iPad Mini works great and I never regretted buying it despite of my earlier dislike for Apple.
However, even after buying the iPad, I could still never imagine myself buying an iPhone. Until recently. Allthough I still really like my blazing smooth Galaxy S3, I am kind of losing the interest for constantly changing ROMs and the endless customizability. It was fun having all those options open, lately I have always been looking for ROMs that simpely work properly without any hassle and that run smoothly. The thought of switching to iPhone has crossed my mind several times, but I am still unsure.
I was wondering if there are any people who have recently made the switch from Android to iOS and how they experienced it? I think I'll like having an iPhone for its simplicity and smoothness, but I am also afraid that I might miss widgets, custom MP3 players, and the freedom to download and open any file or easily send them from my phone.
How have other ex-android users experienced this switch? What difference did you like most and which android features did you miss (in the beginning)?
I hope to hear from you :)

Ok, no widgets and I do miss those occasionally. However, I have other music players on my phone than the built in one. And, I've yet to find a file that I could put on my Android phone and use that I couldn't also put on my iPhone. In both cases, I generally email files to myself.
Things that I like on Android phones that I can't get on an iPhone: ability to schedule SMSs for a later time, ability to use a different messaging app for SMS, ability to set profiles for settings based on time, location, etc with apps like Tasker.
On the other hand, my iPhone never crashes (I found custom ROMs to be a nightmare). It integrates beautifully with my iPad and lots of other devices. Siri is, for me, much better than Google's voice features, though that gap is closing. And, as the Apple App Store is more lucrative for developers than the Google Play store, the apps that I want and use, in my opinion, seem to be better. I find the user experience on an iPhone just more pleasant. And, I think you'll find that an iPhone 5S is just as "blazing" as a Galaxy S4... forget the S3!
Best of luck.

Switching from the original iPhone to the iPhone 3GS

Ok, so I have the old school iPhone. The one before all this 3g nonsense came into play. I am thinking about upgrading to the new 3GS.
So lets say I do decide to upgrade. When I put my SIM card from my old iphone into the new one, will I keep all of my text conversations, recent calls, voicemails, last page I visited on youtube/safari? I know when you sync your iphone it backs up data into itunes. But im just not sure what exactly what all of the data it does back up, you know what I mean?
Oh, and if I back up data on my old school iPhone, then sync a brand spankin new 3gs to the same itunes i backed up data on my old school iphone, will all my data switch to the new one?

Not the way to go. You get a new SIM and use that. Apple instructions are here:

Wanting to switch from BlackBerry Bold to iPhone 4....HELP!!!

I have a BlackBerry Bold and after owning it for about a year, I'm starting to regret it. It's not meeting up to my expectations and I would like to switch to the iPhone 4. The only problem is that I have a two-year-contract and it doesn't expire until October of next year.
Is it possible to go into my local Verizon store and swap my BlackBerry for the iPhone before my contract ends? If it is possible, do I have to pay the full retail price for the iPhone or can I buy it for the two year contract price like I did with my BlackBerry?
Or am I stuck having to wait until next year when my contract expires to switch phones?
Thanks for the help!!!

You'll have to wait until you become eligible to upgrade in October to get the discounted 2 year contract pricing for the iPhone 4. You do have some options, though.
1. You can purchase an iPhone 4 on Craigslist or eBay (or from a friend) and activate it on your line with no penalties. This will cost a lot more than the 2 year contract pricing, though.
2. If you're having issues with your BB, and are out of your 1 year warranty period but do NOT have insurance on it, you can look into Verizon's CPO program. http://support.vzw.com/information/cpo_replacement.html
3. If you are on a family plan with a line that is eligible to upgrade currently, you can use their upgrade to get the iPhone 4, and then let them use your upgrade when you become eligible (with their permission, of course)
4. Number 3 will also work with anyone willing to let you use their upgrade.

From Blackberry to iphone 3gs

I need some help. I am going from a Blackberry Curve 8300 to an iphone and I can't wait to get/use the iphone. I need to tranfer all my contacts to the iphone. What is the best way to do this? I don't have Outlook. My Blackberry currently backs up to my Windows PC. I use gmail but don't currently sync my contacts with gmail Is it best to create a csv file then try to upload to gmail, the sync the iphone? I don't want to have to enter 196 of my contacts by hand. Please help!!
Thanks,
Mark

Download/sync your contacts to a compatible program and sync to iphone.
From the manual:
"Sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Yahoo! Address
Book, and Google Contacts on a Mac, or with Yahoo! Address Book, Google Contacts,
Windows Address Book (Outlook Express), Windows Vista Contacts, or Microsoft
Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. ("

How can i copy my diary from blackberry to iphone 3gs - this si my first iphone so not sure how to use anything at the moment but my diary is the most important bit i need!

how can i copy my diary from my old blackberry to new iphone 3GS - this is my first iphone so i am complete novice! I hope to avoid re-inputting every entry!

You probably already figured this out, but....
The iPhone will sync from various things on your computer (check the manual for details) but if your Blackberry won't export the data or sync to anything, then you'll need to get the info off the Blackberry manually.
Alternatively, it might be possible to set the Blackberry up to sync with Google Calendar, maybe, to export the data? I don't know anything about Blackberrys. Try a google search or ask on BB forums with help getting the data out.
But it will be easier to manually type into something on your desktop/web, then sync with the iPhone, rather than hand-entering on the phone itself. Then keep syncing with whatever you decided to use, so that you'll never need to do this again.

Moving from Blackberry to iPhone...

I'm going to upgrade from a Blackberry to an iPhone, and would like to know the easiest way to transfer my contacts and a few photos to the iPhone. I see on my BB on the menu for my phone book an option that says "SIM Phone Book." Does this put all my contacts on the SiM card, and then when I move the SIM card to the iPhone, all my contacts will be there?
I have a multimedia card in the BB; will this be compatible with the iphone, so that my photos can be on the iphone?
I'm not very tech savvy, and hope there's a very simple way to do this.
Thanks!

Hi there.......there is a simpler and much much easier way to do this (and not a lot of ppl are aware of this either).
I have just upgraded my package with O2 from my blackberry onto a new iPhone 5. The first question that hit me is 'how do I transfer all the sim contacts from my blackberry onto my new I-phone ???'
The answer is easy.... Download an app called ( INTOUCH ) onto your blackberry. When you open the app it takes a second to create a user account that is unique to yourself. once you open the app you can then sync all your current sim contacts onto there web server. then download the same app on your new phone (i.e iphone) which you can get on the app store for free. load the app up on your new phone then you can pull all your contacts down to your iphone and thats it ....it really is that simple!!
if you go onto google and type in INTOUCH app you will see the results that come up there. for blackberry users it can be downloaded on bb app world.
as far as im aware the app works on majority of devices, and the beauty is that once you've created an account, any handset you have wit he app installed on it, will automatically and simultaneously update the,selves on each phone with contacts you have either deleted or added etc..
