Which model (A1428 GSM, A1429 CDMA or A1429 GSM) of iPhone 5 is going to be sold in Apple Stores in USA, when unlocked iPhone 5 become available for purchase?

Hi guys,
I live in Europe, but i have a relative who travels often in USA and i would like him to buy me an iPhone 5 as soon as it gets available unlocked in Apple Stores. The thing is that with 3 existing models of the iPhone 5 being sold since its release, i have no clue which model will be sold in the unlocked version of the phone in Apple Stores. I obviously need the A1429 GSM model since i live in Europe, but will it be available in Apple Stores in USA unlocked, or only the other models will be sold? Will there may be the option to choose whichever of the 3 you like? Do you guys have any information about it?
Thanks in advance!

As far as I know, as a Veriizon subscriber, Verizon will not sell an unlocked iPhone.  They will only sell those locked to their network.
Apple does sell unlocked iPhones, but it is best to make arrangements ahead with the store you are going to buy from to be sure they have what you want on hand.
As I said, from what I have seen, the A1249 is not available in the US.

  • When will summit freezer become available for sale - Model: CF07ES SKU: 1913039

    Hi,
    this has been listed as comming soon for a long long time.
    called in and they said it got a SKU in January.
    Does anyone know when it might show up for sale?
    the vendor does not know, tried them as well.
    thanks for any insight,
    Eddie J

    The length of how long a product is offered is not known, but because of the way technology is an ever changing thing , one model thats there one week may be replaced by another.
    So in theory, some items are promotional and might be there just as a one time deal. Others may stay there depending on their popularity.
    In short : Its unknown. If you are in doubt, bookmark the one you want and come back to it when you can afford it and then if its not there, you have the answer

  • Which iPhone5 model (A1428 or A1429) do I need for the Netherlands?

    Which iPhone5 model (A1428 or A1429) do I need for the Netherlands. The Netherlands is not listed at http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/

    Do they even sell the A1428 in the Netherlands?  As far as I know, that model is only sold in Canada, the USA, Mexico and Peurto Rico.  Everywhere else, the GSM model is the A1429 one.
    According to wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks Netherlands carriers are using mostly 1800MHz, so you would not want an A1428 anyway.

  • Hi ... I would like to ask you about the difference between Iphone 5 model A1428 and A1429, as one of my friend told me some of resellers they have A1428 and others have A1429. Now is that true or not, if your answer Yes what it is the difference?

    The difference is clearly stated on the technical specifications page for the iPhone, something you are just as capable of looking at as anyone else here.

  • When will IOS 4 be available for the Verizon CDMA iPhone 4?

    When will IOS 4 be available for the Verizon CDMA iPhone 4?

    There is no way to know such a thing unless Apple announces, which they very rarely do and speculation/rumor is not allowed here.
    Keep checking for updates in itunes or watch the forum.
    Someone will begin complaining about it within seconds of its release.

  • Which apple store in usa can i buy the iphone 5 factory unlock

    which apple store in USA can I buy the iphone 5 factory unlock

    Well, it is a requirement in the UK that they be sold unlocked.  If you remember when the iPhone was first launched in the UK, all the phones were carrier locked to 02 in an exclusive deal and then they became unlocked when Vodafone, 3 and Orange etc, started to be able to offer the iPhone.
    Unfortunately, the US is different, but there are 3 carrier to choose from now with AT&T, Verizon and Sprint.  For a few years it was only AT&T.  Just works differently out there, depending on networks and agreements with the phone carriers.

  • Which version of iPhone SDK is available for MAC OS 10.3.9

    Hi,
    I want to develop an application for iPhone using my MAC OS 10.3.9 version.
    Which version of iPhone SDK is available for MAC OS 10.3.9?
    Can I install and work with iPhone SDK 6 or 7 version on MAC OS 10.3.9.
    Regards,
    Punit

    but the installation steps of SDK says that it can be installed on MAC OS 9.3.x also by customizing it during installation for the MAC OS 9.3.x.
    If possible, could you post a link to where this information is.
    OS 9 does not have a version 9.3.x so I am not sure what you are referring to unless that was a typo and you meant 10.3.x?
    I think you might get better support in the Developer forum. If you don't receive any other response here in this topic perhaps posting there might attract more knowledgable SDK users.

  • I have a 3GS which I purchased from the Apple Store in the UK (unlocked) without a contract. I now want to use it when on holiday in Australia. I have tried a Vodaphone sim but it doesn't work. Vodaphone in Aus say it should work as all sims the same.

    The Vodaphone store in Australia says there is no difference between a sim for an iPhone to any other phone. But it still doesn't recognise the sim. Is it because sims in the UK are different for iPhones than android phones? It seems rather unfair that I can't use the phone that I purchased unlocked in the UK in another country. I also have a 4S which I was using to keep my UK sim in while in Australia. That was also purchased unlocked from the Apple Store. I haven't tried it but would it be any different?

    If your phone is officially unlocked, it should work fine on any supported carrier's network. Are you getting any error messages when you insert the sim?

  • When will Adobe Air be available for newer models of Samsung Tablets (Tablet 3 version 4.2.2)?

    As a result of this I cannot use any apps or games that need Adobe Air installed on my tablet!  It keeps saying "Package file is invalid".

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • HT1349 I had to wipe my hard drive and re-install iTunes on my computer. I don't want to lose all of my old songs by syncing, many of which aren't available for purchase on iTunes, but it says i have to to manually manage music. How can I bypass this?

    I really don't want to lose the songs on my phone. Why does Apple have to be so difficult?

    That's like saying 'my house caught fire and burned to the ground, so I didn't have the opportunity to purchase a fire extinguisher'.
    The iPhone is not a backup device. You can purchase 3rd party software that 'may' be able to extract the music from your phone, but there is no supported method to get music that was not purchased from iTunes off of your phone and onto your computer.

  • When will firfoz sync be available for an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket, which is a 4G LTE phone?

    I have Firefox 9.0.1 installed on my desktop and it uses Windows 7 operating system.

    Hello Joehiltner,
    Firefox Sync is available on your phone through the Firefox Mobile App. If the link does not work, please search it in the Android Market. https://market.android.com/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm9yZy5tb3ppbGxhLmZpcmVmb3giXQ..
    Firefox Sync is also available on a number of non-Firefox mobile browsers. It does not matter what carrier you have or what phone you have, it just mostly depends on what operating system your phone runs on.
    Hope that helps! If you don't understand, have further questions, or need further guidance, please reply.
    Kind Regards, Aaron.

  • Which model of Mac Pro Tower can take 64BG RAM?

    Hi everyone,
    Been searching and going around in circles to find the true answer to this so I figured I'd just make this post.
    EXACTLY which models of Mac Pro Tower can take 64GB of RAM. Looking on websites like OWC and asking people and I'm getting conflicting information and getting confused.
    THANKS!

    1. Yes.
    2. Yes; Apple doesn’t update its specifications when higher capacity RAM becomes available. A few models require more recent firmware versions and/or OSes installed to reach the actual limit.

  • Finding which model mac you have

    I am fairly new to macs but I have worked in retail sales for about nine years. Why is Apple so cryptic about which model mac you have. We us Mactracker, but that is still not the easiest. The customer has to remember when he bought it, what it looks like, ect.
    Why is there not an easy way to lookup which one you have, like something simple such as a unique model number. I am trying to lookup this PowerMac G5, but I have no clue when it was bought. All I know is it is a dual processor PowerPC 2ghz but the closest I can find is a 1.8 Ghz version and it mentions nothing about dual processor.

    PowerMac 7,1
    http://www.apple.com/support/powermac (for powermac)
    http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html
    http://www.everymac.com/
    PowerMac 2.0DP came out in Sept-Oct 2003 with 8 DIMM slots.
    In 2004 the 1.8DP was speed-bumped up to 2.0DP with 4 DIMMs
    The 1.8SP wasn't well received, everyone wanted and waited for dual, and the only dual in Late 2003 was the 2.0DP, but the yield wasn't as high. Me? I thought they should all be duals, and follow the POWER4 and come out with 1.4DP - 1.6DP - 1.8DP if that was what the chip yield dictated.

  • Can I buy iphone 6 version A1586 in a US apple store (NY city), if yes how can I select this model?

    I travel to NY next week from France and I want to buy an iphone 6 compatbile with French operators.
    the model is A1586.
    In the US they use also the model A1549.
    so I want to know if I can buy the ihone 6 A1586 in an apple store in NY ?

    The warranty for an iPhone is not international, in case your phone needs to be serviced or checked by an Authorized Apple Service Provider, you'll have to bring it back personally to the country where it has been bought. In your case, Apple in France will not service a phone bought in the USA.
