US iPhone 1st gen in the UK

Hi all, I have been given a iPhone 1st gen from my relatives in the USA (they upgraded to the 3G). They had this phone on contract with ATT in the US.
I am in the UK and wanted to get a Pay as you go SIM with o2, would the phone work here?
Any help appreciated.

U.S. iphones are carrier locked to AT&T, as most iphone are carrier locked to their countries official provider.

    Make sure you are using current iTunes on your computer. Click the iTunes Tab at the top of this page. Or try to Restore your iPhone with a different computer.

  • Calendar sync in Maverick with out iCloud, iPhone 1st gen

    I would like to ask how to sync calendar with my iPhone 1st gen in Maverick? (With out iCloud??)

    "Apple does not put your personal info into iCloud. You do."
    Of course 'we do'. We are not robots as yet.
    The point being that apple is trying to force us, i.e., eliminate all choice for those of us who are on mac platforms to have to use iCloud to sync our calendars. I do not want my personal information and the minutia of my daily life anyplace other than in my personal possession, thank you very much.
    For the first time ever, I feel as if I may be forced to leave the Apple environment.
    Maverick is a mess with too many problems and in reality is really in a beta state.
    Sadly, Apple is loosing its luster.

  • How to unlock iphone 1st gen and it be like an ipod touch

    how to unlock iphone 1st gen and it be like an ipod touch

    To activate your phone, you need a SIM card from the carrier to whom it's locked.  The SIM needn't be active, but it needs to be present, nonetheless. 
    There's no way around this step.

  • ICloud with iPhone 1st gen

    Hi there - a friend of mine is long term user of MobileMe and asks me if there will be a possibility for him to get his email on his old iPhone 1st gen after going to iCloud. Can anyone give me some insight on this matter? Thanks in advance.

    On the first gen, he can't upgrade to iOS 5, hence he can't use iCloud, which requires iOS 5.  His mobileme will eventually go out of service at the end of June, so he is definitely near the end of using his MobileMe email unless he gets a newer generation iPhone.

  • Back up Iphone 1st Gen to a new Imac

    Could someone tell me, how can I backup my Iphone 8GB (1st Gen) to my new IMAC? I would like to the have the current contents of my Iphone back up in new IMAC.
    Thanks.

    Not sure what you mean by back up.
    When you sync a back up is done. It does not include music and photo library photos.
    Why would you not move your info/music/pics/etc from your old computer to your new one?
    Iphone will sync music and photos from ONE computer at a time. When you sync to a different computer, the current pics and music will be erased.
    If you have at least one unique contact and calendar entry in your new computer, then you will get the option to merge the data. If you don;t, then that will be erased as well.
    It is much simpler to move the data from the old computer to the new one, then sync.

  • I cannot back up my iPad 1st Gen on the new version of iTunes, I get an error saying it is incompatible.  I need to back it up so I can then restore into my new iPad Air.

    How do I get around this?  The iPad one has the most current iOS allowed for the 1st gen per settings.
    Help!

    this is a follow up from the profane post earlier....
    i have done this twice in two other posts..
    here is my problem.. i started off trying to update itunes, it failed twice and said i needed to install manually via tools.
    the only place to get to tools is the pop up box that appears when you click check for updates.. if there is an available update then the pop up shows up with the quick time and itunes files to download. so i finally figured that out. i clicked on tools and manual update, four files were saved to a file. Apple mobile device support, another one similar, itunes, and another one i cant remember. I only downloaded the itunes file seeing as though thats all i needed to accomplish in the first place.
    so then i restarted my computer bc you need to reboot and then reopen itunes for update to take effect. once i have itunes back open i plugged in my new 5s which i am trying to sync to my computer to get all my stuff back bc i lost my previous phone over the weekend.. once i plugged the phone in an error stating i needed to unistall the apple mobile device support and itunes and then reinstall. well i dont know where those files were originally stored on my computer AND since my itunes was updated, just not the other 3 associated files, when i click check for updates it says its up to date and then pop up containing the quick time and itunes does not pop up thus i cant get back to the tools tab to manually save the 4 files again.
    so i was just going to uninstall itunes all together and then i thought well what happens if it erases all my photos apps songs etc... which would defeat the whole purpose in the first place of me trying to sync my new phone to get all my stuff back.
    so i literally have no idea what to do at this point.. if you have read this you are probably just as confused as me...

  • HT4108 Why does an iPad (1st gen) and the Photos app using VGA adapter

    Why does an iPad (1st gen) using iOS 5.1 and the Photos app not send a single photo to a projector while a slideshow is sent photo by photo?

    I am not 100% sure, but i believe the iPad only does mirroring when connecting with AppleTV. AV cables will output audio and video out the bottom of the iPad (30-pin connector) to a TV/monitor, but the iPad screen itself will only show video controls (play/pause, FF, RW, Done, Progression bar).  If your cables say otherwise I am interested to know what brand they are and where you got them. If you are not getting any video at all the cables are probably not Apple approved and dont have the special chip in the 30-pin connector that allows for video transition.

  • Dropped my ipod touch 1st gen on the floor and now it completely doesn't work. Since the first generation is discontinued, could I exchange it for a newer version?

    My iPod Touch 1st Generation fell off the bed and now does not work. The screen didn't crack or anything but it won't turn on or do anything. I tried resetting it but that did not help at all. The computer recognizes when the iPod is plugged in but the iPod does nothing. I was wondering if I could exchange it, but since the 1st gen iPod is discontinued, could I exchange it for the newer version? Or even just return it?

    You can only turn it into your local Apple store to be recycled for a 10% discount towards the purchase of a new one.  That's it though.

  • Can I use a shuffle and a 1st gen on the same mac

    I use my 1st gen ipod for pod cast in the car. I want to get a shuffle to take just a few podcast with me when walking. Is it possible to use a shuffle and another i-pod on the same mac. can I manually transfer a couple of pod cast to a shuffle?
    Thanks
    Joe

    Itunes 4.9 is fine but I really would recommend getting the latest Ipod updater they just made another bug fix for the shuffle in the latest Ipod updater. http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/

  • Lost all sounds on iPhone 1st Gen

    All my iPhone sounds are gone unless I have headphones plugged in, including the click on and click off. I cannot hear phone calls without headphones. When I adjust volume on the side buttons it says Headphones even when no headphones are plugged in. I have Sync'ed, Restored, Restarted, and Hard restart. The silent switch is in the correct position. I have made a call with the headphones, then disconnected the phones. Nothing seems to bring the sounds back I'm out of airspeed and ideas. If I go to Settings>sounds>Ringtone and press a ring tone, it comes through the speakers. Help.

    In the interest of helping other folks, this other thread discusses the same problem and solutions:

  • Why can't ipod touch 1st gen get the most recent ios update?

    i have tried to update my ipod touch but it doesnt work. i dont understand why the 1st generation cannot get the most recent update.

    Because the 1G iPod does not have the hardware necessary to support higher than iOS 3.1.3
