Upgrating from iPhone 3gs to  ios4

Hey I am upgrating from iPhone 3gs to ios4 but I have noticed that the sim card are not the same . I am living in Lebanon middle east theirs isn t any micro sim card by the company but some friends told me that you can cut the old one to fit the ios4 is this true or theirs is another thing I have to do ?
Rami Saba

iOS4 is firmware update 4.0, which will be pre-installed on the iPhone 4 and will be available as a firmware update for the iPhone 3G and 3GS on 6/21.
The iPhone 4 uses a micro-SIM card. I've seen some discussion about cutting a standard size SIM card down to the size of a micro-SIM card to be used with an iPad. If your carrier does not provide a micro-SIM card, they must not be an official carrier for the iPhone and if not, you have no other choice but to cut down a standard size SIM card to the size of a micro-SIM card.

  • Questions about upgrade from iphone 3gs to iOS4.

    hello.
    Anyone of you guys know that if my current 3gs is upgraded to the new iOS4, can all my apps from 3gs be able to work on the new iOS4?
    Also is the battery features from the iOS4 apply on my current 3gs?
    thanks!

    can all my apps from 3gs be able to work on the new iOS4?
    Most of the Apps should continue to work fine, or be updated soon to work with iOS 4. Developers have had access to it for a long time, giving them chance to update their Apps if necessary.
    Also is the battery features from the iOS4 apply on my current 3gs?
    What battery features?

  • Error prevents importing photos from iPhone 3gs with ios4.01

    I have about 2,500 photos (some videos) on my camera roll on a iPhone 3s with the latest ios4.0.1 I want to import them. I try and iPhoto 09 quits on me and I get a error box saying there is a problem with a photo that is being imported. OK - I guess I should delete it - but what file? there are 2,600.

    I should add that the two iPods that we have ( not iPhones) sync correctly, though they are both seen as cameras, so I suspect that the problem is in the iPhone, and to recap, the songs the iPhone is displaying have shrunk from 6200 to 127 and when I try to sync nearly all songs come up with an error 50 banner. and sometimes iTunes tell you the iphone has all 6200 songs and sometimes only 127. Is there anyway just to clean off all the songs only from the iPhone, stop the 50 errors and just reload the music library ?

  • IPhone 3GS with iOS4 - voice control does not work any more

    Hi - I updated the OS of my iPhone 3GS to iOS4 and everything went well. But ever since I did the update the voice control comes back with strange results when I try to use it. It was working well enough with OS3. Has anybody the same problems and is there a solution?
    Thanks,
    Klaus

    I'm experiencing basically the same as teardrop3d. I'm Australian (with voice settings on English (Australian)) and my 3Gs had at least 90% accuracy with both calls and music requests.
    On iOS4 I've had a single correct result out of at least 30 attempts at using it.
    Requesting "play playlist <name>" will often either start calling a seemingly random person from my phone book (different each time anyway) or sometimes a seemingly random number (I don't know where the number comes from, it's not in my phone book). Sometimes it'll actually offer to play music, usually a specific artist (not a playlist) and occasionally a playlist (but so far never the right one).
    Requesting "call <name> <number type>" has worked once correctly, but usually just tries to call a seemingly random number from my phone book (or a number I don't know, not in my phonebook...).
    As teardrop3d notes, the voice control screen stays up for about 2-4 seconds after I finish talking. It doesn't seem to be recording during this time, as the waveform stops responding to my voice but the screen sits there (with words moving past in the background still) as if its waiting for me to keep talking.
    I've tried talking in different accents to no avail, and didn't get any better results with a different English language setting on the Voice Control (I'm not sure if that's actually listening for different accents or just responding in a different accent?)
    This feature which I used to use multiple times a day to avoid having to take my phone out of my pocket while walking/riding is now useless. I continue to test it each day to see if it ever works, or if there are any behaviours that change it (e.g. locked vs unlocked or with music playing/not playing when I press/hold the mic-button, etc) but so far haven't found any workarounds.

  • Upgrading iPhone 3GS to iOS4 unable to import photos to iPhoto

    After upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS4, I am unable to import photos to iPhoto. Also, iPhone does not turn up in iPhoto. Unable to find other ways to import photos from iPhone. No problems importing before upgrade. Anyone with a god solution?

    I too had troubles with iPhoto and the iPhone Photo app. They are solved for now. Problem description and action take are as follows.
    Problem 1 - Got a new iPhone 4 and upgrade my wife's iPhone 3GS to iOS 4. For both phones, when I connected them to iTunes to sync and selected on the Photo tab to sync my entire iPhoto library, nothing synced to the iPhones.
    Solution 1 - I opened iPhoto to ensure my photo collection was indeed there. I closed iPhoto and tried to sync the phones again. This time, the sync took place, taking a long time since the thumbnail photo collection had to be created.
    Problem 2 - I knew the photos were on the phones since the sync was complete. On the new iPhone 4, I could see the photos when I selected events or faces or places. The albums tab was blank. On the 3GS, it still looked like there were no photos.
    Solution 2 - I shut down the iPhones holding both home key and the power button. I waited a minutes and restarted. Upon restart, both Photo apps displayed my photo collections properly - at least for now.

  • I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6.  Everything converted fine until I deleted an app in error.  When I downloaded it from iTunes, my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers.  Can I go back and re-sync one app from my old phone?

    I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6.  Everything converted fine.  Yesterday I deleted an app in error.  When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion.  Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?  

    Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

  • HT201269 Transferred from iPhone 3GS to 4. Backed up and restored, perfect. New phone is connected to our wireless but is still giving me the "no service" in the upper left corner. Help????

    Transferred from iPhone 3GS to 4. Backed up and restored smoothly. Still getting a "no service" message in the upper left corner of new phone. Help?.....

    Sounds like your iPhone was hacked to unlock and now updating locks back to the original carrier.
    Where did you get the iPhone?

  • MMS video from Iphone 3GS to Iphone 3G

    I know we can send pictures from Iphone 3GS to Iphone 3G, but can we send videos from 3GS to 3G. I wonder because the 3G doesn't have the video feature and therefore, I suspect it won't be able to play the video. Someone knows anything about this?
    Thanks in advance

    the 3G doesn't have a video RECORDING feature..... why would that prevent the 3G from being able to play videos? playing videos and capturing/recording videos are two completely different things.
    you suspect wrong.

  • Syncing Apps from iPhone 3GS to 4S

    Hey folks,
    I recently upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 4S. I synced up my 3GS to iTunes and then connected my new phone. When I synced them I chose the restore from existing option. This worked great and I have all of my messages, email account settings, Photos etc etc. However, None of my Apps have been transferred to the new device. How do I get all of my Apps from the 3GS to the 4S??
    Any help would be great!

  • Transfer apps from iphone 3GS to iphone 4

    I am upgrading from iphone 3GS to iphone 4. I have several applications and music which I have bought from apple store with my appleID. Can these apps be moved to iphone 4 if I use the same appleID... or do I need to repeat these purchases again?

    You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, upon subsequent syncs, including separate backups. When you get your new phone, you can either restore it from the backup of your 3GS or set it up as new, the choice is yours. Afterwards, just plug it in an sync.
