Using Sim in unlocked iphone5 from another country

We have an unlocked iPhone5 purchased in Canada. Currently we have sim from Bell Mobility. We are now in Florida and would like Sim from carrier here. Who can provide prepaid SIM card? AT&T advises it won't work. Confused!

I had a buddy working for Rogers, not sure how correct that info is, but I was told that all phones sold in Canada are unlocked, but then locked to first carrier. Forgive me if I am wrong, with that second hand info, but if he was correct your phone is locked to bell Canada.
Your buddy was simply wrong.  All iPhones purchased directly from the Apple store in Canada are unlocked, permanently.
Where does op say - she/he purchased it from apple store?

  • Which option do I have to select If I buy the latest iPad with cellular feature for international use? If I choose verizon can I just change the sim card and insert one from another country?

    I would guess you need the A1460 model

    The iPhone is most likely locked to the network of the company you purchased the iPhone for. You'll need to contact the mobile provider to unlock it. They are the only one's who can unlock it.

  • DLing songs from another Country?

    Is it at all possible to buy songs from itunes in another country? I want songs that are only available in NZ and OZ, but it's not letting me do it? Thanks

    This has been covered here literally dozens of times, but once again: the content owners do not allow cross-border sales from any of the legal download stores. You must therefore have legal residence in the country of the iTunes Store you wish to use. So in order to buy from another country's iTunes Store, you must (as proof of residence) have either:
    a) a credit card issued by a bank in that country with a billing address also in that country, or
    b) a mailing address for your residence in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country.
    If you cannot fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, you will not be able to purchase from any given country's iTMS.
    This, again, is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders (who are often completely different from country to country and so all require their own individual negotiations and contracts), not by Apple's choice.

  • Can I FaceTime someone from another country without being charged with international fees?

    Can I FaceTime someone from another country without being charged with international fees?

    here is how you actually do it put your phone in air plane mode you should see it when you open the settings app then go to wifi and turn it on this will let you use Imessage to text the person for free if they have a iPhone the same should apply for face time calling but since currently FaceTime can only be done over wifi it shouldn't charge you but the method above is what many would call a precaution ether way it should connect last resort download Skype face time app from app store setup account with both devices and you can chat over 3G or wifi without getting charged also enables connection for FaceTime to ios to android just in case any reader would like to connect to an android user that has a front facing camera.

  • Buying from US store from another country?

    Is that possible? If so, what might i be doing wrong, when i click to buy something i just get redirected to my national store which apparently doesn't have what i want. Isn't the internet supposed to bridge gaps or something...?

    Ok. so im trying to sync my ipod to a new computer, i type in my apple id and password, then someone elses email pops up from another country, how do i fix this
               Please help me.

    If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.
