What to do with old iPhone 5?

Hey, I heard somewhere that I can bring my iPhone 5 to apple store pay 100$ over and get new iPhone 6, is it true? If no, what else can I do with it? I have iPhone 5 64GB but it's covered with scratches. So I don't think I can sell it on the ebay and I've never used it before, it's just a thought. I've no ideas what to do. I would be very happy to get an answer.
Thank you =)

Hello Neron15,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communites.
The Apple Store has a recycling program that will give you an Apple Store Gift Card for old devices. See this page to find out more:

  • What to Do with Old iPhone When a New One Comes Out

    What do you do with your old iPhone when a new one comes out? Is there some trade-in thing or something? Do I just pay full price for the new iPhone? Does AT&T have a trade-in policy or something?

    No trade-in. I just sell mine [on ebay] a few weeks before the newer version comes out, or right after. they go for quite a bit if they are in nice condition.

  • What dot do with old iphone 3 gs 32GB..I have already 4gs?

    what ca i do with my old iphone?? sell it?? ..or does apple buy it back in order to exchange??

    Apple has a deal with resellers and you will get something for it, but not much. What you CAN do is use it as an iPod Touch. See: Using an iPhone without a wireless service plan

  • What to do with old iPhone

    I have my new 3g iPhone as an upgrade. I would like to give my old (old!) iPhone to a family member. I was told at the O2 store (in the UK), that they'd be issuing Pay As You Go sims for the old phones next week. Anybody know if this is true? Otherwise, what's everyone else doing with their old handset?

    Thanks for that. Yes, I got the O2 PAYG sim and set up the iPhone with it without any problems. I paid £20 for a top up, nothing for the sim, and I got £22 in total credit. There's a £10 per month data bolt on you can buy, but I didn't bother. I now have one of the very first official Pay As You Go iPhones. Pretty good.

  • I've broken my iPhone and have put my sim card in my old iPhone 3. If I plug my old iPhone 3 into my computer, will it update the iPhone 3 with everything that is on my phone that is now broken, or will it 'update' iTunes with what was on the old iPhone?

    Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

  • I can't print using airprint from my iPhone 4.  Everything with the phone and the printer and router are up to date.  I can print from my iPad 2 with no problems.  What's wrong with the iPhone 4?

    I just wanted to leave a note that it's working now. I'm not sure if it was the latest iTunes update that got it working or that i decided to start a new library instead of using the one i had backed up on Windows 8 (it didn't occur to me to check using the old library when i re-installed iTunes). But if anyone is having this problem, it might be worth trying again with a new installation of iTunes to see if the latest update works for you, and if not, try using a fresh library instead of a backup (by fresh library i mean discard your old library completely and start a new library, not just restore as new iPhone, a whole new library).

  • What's up with the Iphone-5 ?

    What's up with the Iphone-5 that my wife and I just purchased? Neither one is now connecting to my WiFi Network.  All other devices in my home network work fine, including my old Droidx.  Did we just make a mistake by switching to the Iphone 5?

    I never said the devices are used concurrently.  I imagine that if they were there would be a limit.  What is being pointed out is that devices of various types, such as PSs of various manufacturers, I-Pods, I-pads, laptops of various manufacturers, gaming devices,  etc., when family comes to visit, have no issue logging in to my home Wi-Fi.  While I love Apple devices, why is it that when I buy the best and the latest I have an issue. In the end it turns out that the solution is quite simple, "before connecting to the home network, update the router software".  If this caution is there, I missed it and telling folks to re-initialize the router simply will not do it because, as was explained to me, the I-phone 5 is not compatible with "Security Encryption:WEN".  I am not a computer wiz, therefore I cannot tell you if that statement is correct, but telling people to re-boot the router will not work in this instance.

  • What is wrong with my IPhone? If you take a video you can't hear the audio but if I do a voice memo you can

    I don't know what's wrong with my iPhone, I can listen to music but if I try to take a video you can't hear my voice, if I take a voice memo you can hear my voice.

    try exiting the app and double clicking the home button. the multitasking apps will show up. delete all of them by holding them down and pushing the red circle (dont worry that doesnt remove them from the phone, just completely closes the app and makes your device run faster) then power off your phone by holding down thw lock button and sliding the red arrow when it comes up. wait about 5 seconds after its completely off and turn it back on. then try using the mic. hope this helps

  • What's wrong with my iphone 4 battery after ios 7 ?

    What's wrong with my iphone 4 battery after ios 7 ?
    I've tried all tuning tricks - nothing changed.

    This is not a current feature of any iphone, it never has been! I've heard that there are apps in the app store that allow you to transfer contacts but i'm not sure about anything else! Again you would need to look in the appstore, but again it will be very specific to that app if there are any at all!

  • My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contact to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone

    My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contacts to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone?

    If you have the contacts on the phone you can sync the phone to the computer. The contacts should then show in address book. At this point you can sync the address book data to iCloud. You have to make sure the iCloud account is setup on the computer and this will not work unless the computer is running 10.7.2 of course. There are other ways to add the contacts to iCloud like through the phone but the phone must be running iOS5. If it is you can simply add the cloud account to the phone and toggle the contacts slider. You will get a prompt to keep or delete the contact data. Of course you keep. Then you will get a prompt to merge at which point you do. This should merge the contacts on the phone with iCloud. Hope this helps.

  • What's wrong with old applet tag?

    Hi there,
    What is wrong with old <applet> tag? It will stop displaying java applet in the new browsers? What do we gain by using <embed>?
    Thanks.
    Mike

    The applet element was deprecated in HTML 4.01 but still works. Continue to use it to display AWT applets in NE else if using SWING applets must to use EMBED. See Java documentation for details, in special the OBJECT tag chapter..better reading about HTML converter.

  • I used to able to watch movies, TV series on youtube for more than 20 minute straight. In last few days, somehow it stopped after only 1-2 minutes. What is wrong with my iPhone 4S? I even updated youtube.

    That would indicate an issue with the local network, not internet. This can impact devices differently and will likely be more obvious on a streaming only device.
    If you are on wifi try ethernet
    Make sure DNS is set to auto (settings - general - network)
    Go to istumbler, netstumbler or similar to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise.
