Using iphone as ipod only

Can I use an old iphone just as an ipod? If I plug it into a computer do I have to turn it on as a phone?

yes you can use your old iphone as an ipod, and if it's already activated you can sync without a problem, but i think you still need the sim card in there. simply just put in the sim card and sync. once done, you can take out the sim card and put it back to your other phone.

  • Can I use Iphone and Ipod at the same time?

    I use an Ipod now. If I bought an iPhone and sync it with my iTunes... will it no longer allow syncs with my regular iPod? Or can I have both my purchases on both devices?

    ok so it I can still use both, like movies (including rentals) on my video ipod, and my music on my iPhone. (storage is the reason for the two devices.)?
    Yes, but the Fifth Generation iPod cannot play rented movies; it only works with purchased ones out of those from the iTunes Store. The iPod classic, third generation iPod nano, iPhone, and iPod touch will play rented movies.

  • Use Iphone as Ipod touch?

    I just bought a used Iphone 5 for ATT and it came with no SIM, I want to use it as an Ipod touch. I heard that you can use a SIM from another's iphone for a few minutes just to activate it; I did that with my friends Iphone 5c SIM and it still said NO SIM, what is wrong?How do i activate it? And How can I solve this problem?

    Is your friend's phone from AT&T? You would have to use an AT&T SIM for an AT&T phone. Otherwise, here is the support document for using a phone as an iPod without  wireless service. Using an iPhone without a wireless service plan

  • Using the Phone - ipod only.

    Can you turn off the phone, but still use as an Ipod? I want to use an Iphone in the gym and don't want to be distrupted by phone calls. I don't have the Iphone yet, but hopefully soon!

    Hola tallicaman99,
    Welcome to the forums!
    Yes, what you need to do is switch your iPhone to airplane mode.
    Good luck!

  • Recently updated the the apple tv remote app for my iPhone4. Now can no longer turn on the apple tv "box" on/off using iPhone app.  Only thing that shows on iP screen is music library.  Home Sharing is on. Any help appreciated.

    Recently updated the the apple tv remote app for my iPhone4. Now can no longer turn on the apple tv "box" on/off using iPhone app as I used to do before the update.  Only thing that shows on iPhone screen is music library.  Home Sharing is on. Any help appreciated.  Sorry if this is not exactly the right place to post this!

    One clue: I have found a reliable way to solve the problem when it happens.
    In my network, I have the main Airport Extreme (Gen 1) which is connected to my router, which distributes IP addresses to my internal subnet.  The other two AEs (one Gen 4, one Gen 5) are set to extend the network.
    When I get this problem with an AppleTV 2 that can "see" my library, but when I try to open it, it says it couldn't find the library, it seems to have to do with a change in which Airport Extreme it's talking to.
    If I restart the main Airport Extreme from the Airport Utility, effectively restarting the entire wireless network, then when the network resumes, every AppleTV 2 is happy again.
    Unfortuntely, the problem does seem to recur - but I'm wondering if it's because temporary interference leads an AppleTV 2 to try to connect to a different AE, and somehow that's mucking with the Home Sharing.  Remember, internet access (Trailers, Store, Netflix) have no issues.  Purely Home Sharing.

  • Converting iphone to ipod only

    instead of removing the sim card each night, can the iphone4 be ipod only, temporarily disabling chat?

    the real issue here is a teenager that should be sleeping instead of texting but still wants music to get to sleep. I see that I can regulate some applications through the restrictions option but chat isn't one of them. Airplane mode works but he can still turn it back on, unless there's a 'parent password' type of thing?

  • How to use iphone as ipod?

    On craigslist, a person is selling a verizon iPhone 4s. And I wanted to buy it. But I only want to use it as a ipod! How do I do it? Take out the SIM card? What so I do?

    Keep in mind that an iPhone must have a SIM card in it in order for a restore to complete successfully. If you have issues and need to restore the phone, not having the SIM in it will prevent the restore from completing.
    I recommend leaving the SIM in the phone if you do choose to purchase it.

  • HT3406 Use iphone as ipod?

    I want to use my iphone 4 as an iPod but I can not put my new SIM card in the iphone for because it is an iphone five SIM card. The home button does not work either, what do I have to do?

    Either get a SIM adaptor or get an appropriate size SIM for the iPhone4.
    FYI, no SIM is needed to use an iPhone as an iPod.
    Just curious, what happened to the SIM that came in the iPhone4 to begin with?

  • Using iPhone w/ iPod speakers/dock?

    I have the altec lansing inMotion speakers and i'm wondering if I can use this with my iphone?

    anyone know whether it is safe to use?

  • Using iPhone with WiFi only while traveling

    I will be traveling to Europe in a few months and will be taking my iPhone4 with me. I want to avoid spending a fortune to use my phone while I'm there and have the Line2 app (I will forward my normal calls to my Line2 number) and will pay for a month's worth of service. I know that I can disable cellular data and data roming but I want to know if it is possible to ensure that my phone does not connect to any local cell networks and only connects to available WiFi networks, is this possible?

    I live in Germany and I can tell ya now that you will not be using your phone much unless your hotel has free wifi. There are not many places that have free wifi. I was in the states last December and most stores and restaurants had wifi. It was great! Traveling within Europe I cannot use my phone outside of Germany without racking on roaming charges. I have had a couple of large bills when my husband and I got lost in a few different places and used the maps app. Cheaper to buy a European navi. Make sure whatever hotel you stay at has free wifi.

  • Using iPhone 4S as iPod touch, specifically FaceTime and upgrades

    I'm thinking of getting a noniphone and want to make sure that as long as I keep my sim I can use the iPhone as a iPod touch including FaceTime and I'll be able to upgrade to newest iOS whenever it comes out?
    Thanks!
    I've read the apple article about using iPhone as iPod touch. it doesn't answer these questions

    Yes it will work just fine.
