Why does my IPad 3 tell me I have no SIM card. This just happened after owning it for 2 yrs

When I just turned on ipad3 no SIM card came up on screen. This has not ever happened. Went to settings and cellular data but cannot get in. Turned off and on still showing no SIM card.  Should I take it to Verizon to check out SIM card?

Remove and re-insert the SIM.
Replace the SIM.
If the problem continues, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

    Why does my iPad settings,about show I have photos when my photo app says I have none?

    After the most recent iOS update there is a problem with phantom photos.
    Perhaps you have phantom photos, that are invisible in the Recently Deleted album and thus cannot be deleted. Then resetting the date will help.  Changing the date makes the invisible photos in "Recently deleted" visible again:

    Re: More photos in settings than photos app showsin response to morganfaith6 | This helped me
    I managed to get rid of the phantom usage. Restoring iPhone and resetting the phone settings/data do not work for me.
    I had to move the Date on my phone earlier by 1,2,3 months and found the phantom photos in the Recently Deleted Folder. Next, I deleted the photos manually from the Recently Deleted Folder and the usage got freed up from my iPhone.

  • I have lost my iPad and would like to block it from being reregistered. It is a wifi only and does not have a sim card. I did not sign up for any tracking software either. Can apple block the serial number?

    No.
    Apple can do nothing.
    You cannot block it from being "registered".
    If you did not set up find my ipad before it was lost, then there is nothing you can do but change your passwords.

  • TS1814 I have an iPhone 3GS and was trying to restore it. Now it won't let me activate my phone and my itunes tells me I have no SIM card inserted when I do. Any ideas on how to get it working again?? I'm dying without it!

    This means that the phone was previously hacked to carrier unlock (unauthorized unlock), and when you restored, the hack was removed and it became re-locked to its original carrier.  It will now accept a SIM card only from that carrier.
    Your only option is to contact the carrier it's locked to and enquire if they will provide authorized unlocking.  Not all carriers will unlock and those that do usually have requirements and qualifications - i.e. you have to be a current or former customer in good standing.

  • Why does my iPad storage tell me its full with 20gb of photos when the photos folder is empty?

    The storage on my iPad is nearly full-its states that i have 21gb of photos on it but the photos folders are empty.  i cannot back up or sync as there is not enough space...how do i delete something that is not there?

    Try this...
    Open Photos App
    select "Albums"
    Look for "My Photo Stream" and see if that's empty or not.
    The photo stream is basically a shared album that will include all photos associated with your apple ID and can grow very quickly - and quietly.
    If that's your problem you can learn more about Photo Stream, and how to disable it, here: My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
    Good Luck.

  • Why does my MacBook Pro tell me I have no storage to backup my phone, when I have plenty?

    When I try to backup my phone on iTunes it tells me that I can't because there "isn't enough storage on this computer" even though when I go to my Mac OS hard drive it says I have about 96 GB of free storage. I can't figure out why it is doing this, considering I have even gone in and told iTunes to save under a specific folder within the Mac OS hard drive.

    Remove and re-insert the SIM.
    Replace the SIM.

  • Why does my iPad reset itself all the time?

    Why does my iPad reset itself all the time?

    Hello!
    The same happened to my yesterday night when I was charging my iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1. My first impression was that could it be and auto update (to install iOS 6.1.2) however I'm still on 6.1.
    It erased ALL my info and shows the initial configuration wizard......this is totally a mega ***!!!!!!

  • Why does my iPad 3rd Generation says Searching in upper left corner?

    Why does my iPad 3rd Generation continually say Searching in upper left corner?

    1. iTunes 11 is for your computer, not for the iPad. You don't need to download iTunes for the iPad, it is already on the device.
    2. When you switched ID's on the iPad and then downloaded any past purchase, you associated the iPad with that ID and locked yourself out of your own ID for 90 days. You cannot change this now. You have to wait until the 90 days are up before you can switch to your ID again.
    3. AirPlay is a feature on the iPad that is only visible when you are using AirPlay compatible device with the iPad. When you double tap the home screen to get to the recents tray at the bottom of the screen, the AirPlay icon would be visible in there.

  • Why does my ipad not have a renew lease button or a forget network button? it's a first generation i think

    Honestly, I'm at my wits end I've been trying EVERYTHING to get a wifi connection: I reset my network settings TWICE and reset my router and checked to see if my password was put in properly. This issue happened after my charger for my Ipad broke and I had to leave it dead for at the LEAST six months. During this time we lost our old network connection because it became unsecure and now anyone can use it so we got a new connection and it requires a password I have the password and evertime i put it in it refuses to work! Mind you my ipad never had an issue connecting to our old network that required a password (well used to). Ever since i charged it again for the first time in a long time it has only connected to the old network that is pretty much dormant and is a complete waste of time since it doesn't work right and now whats making me frustrated is that it won't connect to the old one either after i reset my network and it DOESN'T even need a password! like I really want to cry....I really need help with this.

    It doesnt have renew lease or forget network button either.

  • Does a iPad 3 have a sim card

    I just bough a iPad 3 and does it have a sim card tray becuase the iPad 2 has it

    If you bought the wifi-only iPad then it won't have a sim card slot, if you bought the wifi + cellular version then it should have a sim card slot on the left-hand side towards the top e.g.

  • Why does my iPad tell me my airport network "cannot be set up by this software"

    why does my iPad tell me my airport network "cannot be set up by this software"?

    You likely have an older version of the AirPort router which is not supported by AirPort Utility for the iPad.
    Check the model number on the bottom....if you have an AirPort Extreme.....or check the model number on the side of the device......if you have an AirPort Express.
    Post back with that model number.
