Why does my iphone4s say Sim invalid?

why does my iphone4s say Invalid Sim-phone just 3 weeks old.

Because the SIM has failed or the phone is otherwise unable to read it.

    Why does my iPad say " No SIM " in the upper left corner ?

    Hi Edwardtracey,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It sounds like you have a cellular data plan and there is no service where you currently are.
    The article below will explain this feature and how to turn the setting on/off.
    The article has more details and screenshots, but I've quoted highlights below for you:
    iOS: About the Cellular Data setting
    Cellular data is used for data communication in cellular networks. It does not affect your ability to make or receive phone calls or to use Wi-Fi networks for Internet connectivity. If you turn off cellular data, you will be unable to:
    See the cellular data icons in the status bar (for example, LTE or 3G).
    Send or receive MMS messages. However, you can still send and receive SMS and iMessages if you're connected to a Wi-Fi network.
    Retrieve or listen to new Visual Voicemail messages. To retrieve these messages, enable Cellular Data.
    Use Personal Hotspot.
    You can adjust this setting by going to:
    iPad: Settings > Cellular
    Additional Information
    You can also enable or disable cellular data for certain iOS features from this setting:
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • Why does my iphone4 keep losing some of my newly entered contacts?

    Why does my iphone4 keep losing some of my newly entered contacts?

    When an app is downloaded to your phone what is downloading is an installer. Once the installer downloads in installs the app and then is deleted. You can see a reference to this if you watch the App's icon in the App Store after you tap on download. It will first say downloading then that will change to installing. The amount of free space on your phone must be enough to accommodate the installer and the app plus have some left over for system work. You're just too close to the minimum for everything to work.

    Why does my ipad say i cant make anymore applie ids or an i cloud account abd how do i get an account HELP please !!!!!

    Hello, I had the same problem (repeatedly) until I did this, it works!
    Remove sim, very very lightly rub the sim card's contacts (the metallic parts) with a standard pencil eraser. I suspect its just a micro-residue from the manufacturing process interfering with complete contact.

  • Why does my printe say "used supply in use" 1217nfw

    Why does my printe say "used supply in use" model m1217nfw

    Hello,
    The "Used Supply in Use" means that the printer believes the toner cartridges installed in the printer have been previously used in another printer.
    Have you recently changed the toner cartridge on this printer? Are you having issues printing?
    Remember if you find any of my post helpful or want to say thanks make sure to click the white star under my name to give me Kudos.
    I really appreciate it!
    You should be able to still print without problems even though the message comes up.

  • Why does my printe say "used supply in use/:

    why does my printer say used supply in use?  And I can't print anything

    Pretty sure its to make sure you don't get good use out of your cartridges... basically this company trying to get 10 cents a print out of you
    After 1100 prints, regardless of how much ink used, if you take it out (the genuine 85a) at this point and put it back in, say after a jam or you want to shake it, it tells you have a used cartridge, i have tested continually using this, and got 500 more prints, with an annoying nag that you cant stop from every page printed. you have to take it out because this printer is notorious for a section ink don't get too, even though there probably is over 50% of ink left in it.. you take it out and shake it and can print, hundreds and hundreds of more pages... but after the 1100 point mark, since the printer tracks statistics it goes into this "used mode" so averages of prints won't go up... im pretty sure its devious code... but what do i know.. i just wont be getting new HP printers.. they claim it can cause damage.... the heads are on the toner cartridge... if its damaged the cartridge is replaced and thats that... so their warnigs are smoke and mirrors..

  • I have iPhoto '08 - why does the version say 7.1.5

    I have iPhoto '08 - why does the version say 7.1.5
    I have the full paid version of iPhoto '08, but when I check the "About iPhoto" pull down it says - iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5.
    Is this because I have it installed on a G4 and so it has to install 7.1.5 instead of 8.02 because of processor limitations?
    What features am I missing as a result of having to run '08 on a G4 versus a G5?

    iPhoto '08 is version 7.x.x - 7.1.5 being the latest
    iPhoto '09 is version 8.x.x - 8.0.2 being the latest
    You have the up to date version of iPhoto '08 - only purchasing iLife '09 will get you a newer version

    Why does the Iphone4 freeze up after downloading the IOS7.6 patch showing an ITUNE icon? The phone will not change screens for 4 hours.
    I Turn it off/on  and nothing changes.

    Hello bigboza,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    Have a nice day,

  • Why does status bar say that all items are not loaded?

    When I have the status bar displayed at the bottom of my page, and I load a page, it usually says 4 of 5 item complete, or 6 of 7, or even one time, 92 of 93. What does this mean exactly? And why does it never say all items are completed? Is anything wrong with the browser, or is this just code for something?
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    These days web pages have many little extras, not just images, that have to be downloaded when we click on a link to a page. Sometimes, for a variety of reasons (file availability, internet problems, browser, bad coding, local cache, ISP problem) not everything downloads.
    As long as the page seems to have all the information and nothing is apparently missing, I tend to ignore this.
    When all items are completed, the status bar shows nothing.

  • HT5824 why does my ipad say user name disabled, but on all other devices i can pog into itunes and icloud using my user name

    why does my ipad say user name disabled but i can use my user name to log into itunes and icloud on other devices

    At this time there is no "solution." You'll simply have to wait the 90 days to re-enable iTunes Match.
    For now here is my suggestion. In your User Account, in OS X, sign out of whatever iTunes Store account you are signed in with. Then sign in with your store account and leave it at that. Now sign out of your OS X User Account, sign into your wife's OS X User Account and sign into the iTunes Store with her Apple ID (if necessary sign out of the account first).
    Now, you can go back to your OS X User Account and attempt to enable iTunes Match. You will probably get the "wait 90 days" message. If so leave it, mark your calendar, and wait for the 90 days to expire. You can try contacting iTunes Store support at <https://expresslane.apple.com> if you wish, but I really do not know how useful that will be.
    Incidentally, you get the message to pay for the service when trying to enable it on your wife's Apple ID because the service has not been purchased using that Apple ID. iTunes Match is designed to be a single-user service that is never signed out of and is associated with one, and only one, Apple ID and a regional store.
