Traveling Abroad, Lost Iphone, Can I use a new one without docking to my computer back home?

Hello, I am traveling in Thailand and lost my Iphone. I would like to buy a new one but am concerned that I can't use it without docking it to my computer which is back in the USA. I am currently not under contract with any carrier, so new one will be an Unlocked Thai one. Can I buy one in Thailand and still get new apps? Also, can I add music from a different computer then the one I registered it on? I have no timeline for returning home and kinda need my Iphone for all sorts of stuff!!! Thanks a lot!

It would help to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion). When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
Rather than buying a MacBook Pro to replace your MacBook you can just get a bigger hard drive. You can get a 1tb drive for around $100 and they are easy to replace in a MacBook.

  • My old Apple ID won't allow me to use the old password to log out of the cloud. I can't use the new one, either. The new Apple ID is in the iTunes and App store. But I can't change it on the cloud without logging out. Which I can't do.

    I can't use the old Apple id and Apple password on my new Iphone 6 - I can use the new ones. But I can't access the cloud in the meantime. The iTunes and App Stire has the new Apple ID, but I can't get into the settings to change it on the iCloud. It asks for the Old Apple ID and password, which doesn't work. Does anyone know how to change the old Apple ID on the iPhone in the settings for the iCloud?

    First, try the new password.  If you didn't sign out of iCloud prior to changing the primary email address of your Apple ID, this is what can cause this problem.
    Also, read this: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support

  • I have a ipod classic which i purchased 2007,can i use the new apple tv dock to play my itunes video clips via my ipod classic to view on my tv

    You can plug the iPod into the same iTunes library as your iPod Touch and sync whatever content you like to it. There is no limilt to the number of iPads, iPhones, or iPods you can sync with one iTunes library, account, or computer.  How you sync one device will not affect the syncing preferences of the other.

  • I need to de-authorize my old computer - had to buy a new one today because the old one got wet...I can't see the old screen - but can't use the new one until I can deauthorize the old one...is this a catch 22?

    How do I de-authrorize an old computer?  I can't access it because it got wet...I can't activate the new one until I deauthroize the old one...seems like a chicken and egg thing...?

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • I have 1 old coputer and 1 new 2 different versions of itunes. can they work together. ie can I use the new one to update our iphones and such and if so will our older itunes version8.2 get changed or lost?

    We have two computers. One is older and one is newer. The older has itunes on it (version 8.2) and can no onger update. We want to install itunes on our newer computer to allow us to update our iphones. Can we install 10.2 on the newer computer and use it for updates and such without affecting the older computer? Will my wife be able to still play her music from her older computer and if we buy new music will it upload to both computers.
    Example if she buys ten more songs on her computer(older one) will it automatically upload them to the newer computer when we turn it on? And if I buy a song on the newer computer would it show up on her older version of itunes or not?

    Have a look here...

  • FIOS DVR Manager for iPhone - can I use more than one iPhone?

    Can the FIOS DVR manager be used from more than one iPhone for the same DVR?

    Only one device can be used at a time to program your ASTB. In theory, you can use different phones however, each time you switch devices you will need to register the phone and obtain a new authorization code to access your ASTB.

  • Can I use more then one apple ID on my computer/osx app store

    Hi,
    I use my MBP/iMac/ipad/iphone for both business and home.  Right now everything is setup to my home apple id (and I have made quite a few purchases with that).  With the release of the osx app store and FCPX,  my company wants to buy these for my computers.  But they want to do this on their apple id.  Can I run more then one id on a mac?  How can I make this work as I know they will want me to start getting more apps as they are released.

    You can have apps from multiple Apple IDs on one Mac. The issue will be that to update Mac apps bought with A ID #1 will require signing into A ID #1 in the MAS. And later when apps bought with A ID #2 need an update you will need to sign into A ID #2 in the MAS to update them. If you can keep that straight and can abide that requirement, there should be no issues.
    The same will be true to update iOS apps, but using iTunes.

  • I found my lost iPhone, can I use it as a iPod?

    I lost my iPhone 5  on a business trip, when I retuned to that location 4 weeks later the HR rep told me that there was a phone that had been turned in but due to holidays and vacations they forgot to notify me. I know its my iPhone because my pass code worked once I charged the phone a bit.
    I have had my replacement from Verizon since this occurred but I want to be able to use this one as an iPod for my kids, can I?

    yes

  • Old iPhone - can I use with new provider?

    I have an old iPhone activated in the US with ATT. I recently moved to Hong Kong and would like to switch out the sim card and use it with the new iPhone service provider in HK. I don't want to break my contract with ATT (as I still use it when in the US), I don't want a new 3G iPhone (yet), and I don't want to hack/unlock it.
    Will this be possible now that there will be a service provider in HK?

    Will this be possible now that there will be a service provider in HK?
    No - this does not change the fact that your iPhone is carrier locked with at&t. The iPhone sold in HK will likely be sold as carrier locked only with the designated provider or providers there.

  • I lost my iphone and would like a new one without paying $600

    I lost my iphone 1 month into my 2 year contract. I have my old phone that I've had for the past 3 years while I was waiting for the iphone to come to Verizon, but I'd really like to replace my iphone. I am kicking myself for not getting the insurance on it, but I can't do anything about that now. I'm the 2nd line and the primary line is eligible for an upgrade, but if I use that my husband is stuck with his 2 year old phone for the another 2 years.
    Is there anyway around all this or do I need to get a 2nd job to be able to afford to replace my iphone?

    Because Verizon requires a monthly data package on smart phones, your old number will be charged until you replace it while under contract.
    When  adding the new number to get another iphone, transferring old number to your new iphone, you may be able to then transfer the "new"  number to a basic device, minimizing costs. Ask if there is a penalty for dropping the monthly data package. Verizon has a $29.99/Unlim MB data package or the limited time promotional $15/150 MB. But it is manditory on all smart phones, even lost ones, unless replaced.
    WARNING: Ask the rep to confirm if you have the "Smartphone Talk Free promotion". (Very Likely)
    This is Verizon's warning verbatum, taking note of the last clause:
    If your plan includes the Smartphone Talk Free Promotion, the following conditions apply:
        * You must keep the $29.99 Data Package associated with your eligible Smartphone device
        * You must keep your current plan. If you change your plan, the promotion and the $9.99/line/mo.
          Credit will be removed.
        * An eligible Smartphone must be associated with your plan. If you upgrade or change to a
          non-Smartphone device, the promotion and the $9.99/line/mo. credit will be removed.
    BTW: People stuck with no good solution and wishing to avoid the contract cancellation penalty, have another option usually not mentioned. All carriers have a basic 1Yr service plan. Verizon's calls theirs Nationwide Loyalty 100, priced at $25 monthly, for 100m general and 500m N/W (all [email protected]),
    And it proves ideal for my 8th grader, a phone for texting and emergency calls.

  • I am using my MacBook for person and work purposes.  Will I overload it and cause it to crash? And how can I finance a new one without paying all upfront?

    I am afraid that my computer won't be able to hold all of my files for work and personal use. Will it?  And if I get a new notebook strictly for work, how can I finance it without paying all upfront?

To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion).

  • Lost all contacts when manually adding new ones

    Lost all contacts when manually entering new ones, how do I get them back? This is 2nd time this happened

    Same thing happened to me this evening.  I had 1700 contacts and was editing several contacts adding birthday and anniversay dates.  After entering dates successfully into the second contact, I did a search for a third contact and got "no results".  That's when I noticed that I had no contacts - not a single one.  Tried turning iPad 2 off and then back on - but no joy - zero contacts.  Not even an error message or beep or system reset - contacts just disappeared.  I suspect they are still on the device, but the Contact app link to the contact database file on solid state hard disk becomes corrupted.
    APPLE - This is a HUGE bug that needs to be fixed IMMEDIATELY!
    I have iPad 2 - 64gb - 3G/Verizon with 30 GB free. ios 4.3.3
    I hadiTunes set to sync my Contacts with Google Mail
    Additional info
    - Resyncing with iTunes restored 1752 contacts
    - I had recently used (24 hours earlier) "Dup Remover" app which worked beautifully, I which I have used successfully on my iPhone.  To be clear - running Dup Remover did NOT cause this problem, but I mention as this loss of contacts may occur as a result of a unique set of actions on iPad 2.

  • I buy my Headphones on Apple Store, and the left sight is not working that much.II want to know if i can replace to a new one.

    I buy my Headphones on Apple Store and it cost me about $36 with Tax, and the left sight is not working that much.I want to know if i can replace to a new one without no charge.

    If they are Apple-brand headphones, then the Apple Store will handle the warrranty and, absent any evidence of abuse, should replace the headphones. If the headphones were made by some other company, then unless you purchased the headphones in the last fourteen days, you will have to contact the manufacturer of the headphones for warranty support.
    Regards.

    Face time with wifi only.  I have a 4Gs iPhone traveling to Japan.  Can I use face time with another 4Gs or IMacback in the States using just wifi and with I have my Celluar Data and Data Roaming off?

    Thanks,  After changing my settings in face time per your suggestion, (it needed to be done),  I turned off cellular data and data roaming and made a call using face time.  It worked!  Great way to stay in touch while overseas without the need for those egregious phone data plans. 

  • Can I use more than one SIM card in my iPhone if I buy it SIM free?

    Can I use more than one SIM card in my iPhone if I buy it SIM free?

    Sim free is not enough, you can use different sim if it's unlock.
