    99% your iPhone is hacked/jailbroken, now you need the SIM from the carrier the iPhone was locked to.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs not sync with contacts?

    why does my iphone 3gs not sync with contacts?  In fact it loses contacts during syncing.
    In Itunes it is set to automatically sync to the laptop and in info sync contacts is checked and all contacts are checked.

    On my Mac Pro, contacts and Thunderbird contacts are synced.  I want my Iphone to sync with the Contacts on the Mac Pro.  Incidently I am not using Icloud.  Is that the problem?

    Most likely the phone is locked to a carrier that you haven't tried yet.

  • Why does the iPhone 3GS not show as a camera model in iPhoto

    I noticed on the extended photo info in iPhoto, the new iPhone 3GS doesnt have a camera model for photos taken with the iPhone 3GS.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs not charge at all?

    my iphone 3gs which was bought online from ebay, does not charge at all. i used to be able to charge it by turning the phone offg and then wrapping a rubber band around the cable and phone. this doesnt work anymore, and it doesn't charge at all

    Sounds like you purchased a phone that as physically broken.
    If the phone wasn't tampered with by you or a previous owner, you may be able to get an out of warranty replacement from Apple for $149. Make an appointment at the genius bar and find out.

  • Why my unlocked iPhone is not working with SIM card bought in Europe (it shows SIM card l

    I bought unlocked iPhone in Apple store in US with a thought that I could also use it when travelling to Europe. I've bought SIM card there, place it in my iPhone, but It's not working. Still it shows that card is locked for some reason. What can I do to solve this problem?

    Which Carrier's  sim exactly did you buy and in which Country ?
    You are sure you purchased an unlocked rather than Sim free iPhone ??

  • Why does my iPhone 4 keep saying no sim card

    my iphone 4 keeps randomly saying no sim card and i havent dropped it and its in a otter box but its getting really annoying. restarting the phone sometimes works, and taking the sim card out and putting it back in works but im tired of doing that all the time. how can i fix this?

    You might want to get a new SIM from your carrier. If you frequently remove/replace it, the contacts may be worn.

  • Why does my iPhone 4s not recognize there is a usb cord attached to it and not charge?

    This problem just came up today. Everytime I attach the usb charging cord into my iphone it does not vibrate like it normally would. It also does not show the lightning symbol by the battery bar and does not show that it is charging. This problem happened to my previous iphone but it had water damage. This is not the case for this phone because i recently got this phone about a week ago and it hasnt been around any water or moisture. I also tried multiple cords thinking it was that was the cause of the problem but it turned out it wasnt. This problem is really annoying and i just want my phone to charge so I can continue using it. If anyone knows anything I can do to fix this, it would be much appreciated.
    Thanks, Josh

    Are the cables Apple cables? Is the wall charger the Apple Charger? If the answer to those is yes, then make an appointment at the Genius Bar at Apple to get the device checked.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

    Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
    The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
    But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
    This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

    Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
    My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem.  Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source.  Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all.  In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
    Is there any help for this affliction?

  • TS1702 why does my iphone 5s not display apps to my jvc car stereo, when the same apps work with my 4s?

    why does my iphone 5s not displaying apps on my jvc car stereo.  these apps worked with my iphone 4s?

    Blackberries were designed at a time when cellular data was very expensive. They don't do nearly as much as an iPhone, in part, to conserve data use. All modern smartphones will use more data than a Blackberry unless you do almost nothing.
    You do not need to quite apps. Almost no apps run in the background.
    Here are Apple's tips on iPhone battery use:

    If you are really only getting an hour of battery usage and not just engaging in hyperbole (), you should make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store.

  • Why does my airport extreme not recognize my cable modem anymore?

    Why does my airport extreme not recognize my cable modem anymore?

    Have you tried resetting the modem? Power it down and let it rest a moment, then power it back up again.
    Also, some ISPs require physically detaching their cable from the modem for it to be fully reset. Literally unscrew it from the modem. Try that, in conjunction with powering it down.
    Don't do anything with your Extreme, other than powering it down too, in the event the modem reset does not help. Reconfiguring it may be necessary but this is not justified quite yet.
