Why my unlocked iPhone is not working with SIM card bought in Europe (it shows SIM card l

I bought unlocked iPhone in Apple store in US with a thought that I could also use it when travelling to Europe. I've bought SIM card there, place it in my iPhone, but It's not working. Still it shows that card is locked for some reason. What can I do to solve this problem?

Which Carrier's sim exactly did you buy and in which Country ?
You are sure you purchased an unlocked rather than Sim free iPhone ??

Why is my video cam NOT working again after it had been sent in to get fixed already

Model Number: QE024UA
Model Description: HP PAVILION DV6-6169US NOT
Serial Number: 5CH1430SD9
I had my computer sent to get the video cam working... they sent it back and it worked for about 2-3wks and is not working again also when I call someone elses computer I can hear and see them but they can no longer see or hear me. Cant see due to video not working again again on my part but they used to be able to at least hear me.. Now neither works. I have written plenty of messages to HP (at least 3 that I remember) but with no reply. Not a happy camper right now about this. When I bought this computer It had everything I thought I needed and more for my basic use. I chat on facebook Play their game and browse the web.. watch my netflix. I never really needed a video cam but now since family life has changed and I live so far away from them I specifically ordered this computer cuz of its high quality in video plus I liked the fact it played Blue-Ray. I used to have a Dell that lasted me a good 5yrs of usage. I have had this less than 3mnths and twice the cam has gone out on me.

I'm avoiding buying anything else to use my iMac and had the same problem. I have PC headset with mic and headphones and also a Motorola bluetooth headset, neither worked how they should, no mic function:
I can use the pc headphones that I already had (just didn't input the mic jack part), and the iMac built-in mic together as I chat.
Just go to System Preferences and make the Sound settings for Output to built-in Headpones and Input to Internal Microphone -select "Use ambient noise reduction.
Its a get-around, but it works.

Why is my iPhone camera not as good as the one showed off by Steve Jobs?

In the WWDC 2010, Apple's CEO Steve Jobs showed off the iPhone 4's 5MP camera. But mine is not that great, I get a lot of camera noise and the digital zoom *****, the video capture has a lot of noise too. What's up? Is my iPhone messed up Or are all iPhone 4 cameras like this?

You are probably trying to take pictures outside of the lighting conditions that are optimal for the phone. Camera noise is almost always a sign of insufficient light.
And digital zoom is a hoax on the inexperienced photographer. All it does is use less of the sensor, so it is the same effect as cropping the photo on your computer after taking it. This is true of any digital camera, not just the iPhone's.

Why my macbook air camera not working? Neither Photo Booth nor Face time.

I have not been able to use Face Time, Photo Booth and Skype as the camera of my Macbook air is not responding? Any solution guys? Will appreciate the answers from the people who have experienced this problem and have solved it successfully.

I had this same problem, and the way i have resolved it was by doing a back up for the Time Machine. Hadn't done that in 190 days and after I did it my camera work after a sleep for the first time in months.

My front camera won't work on my iPod touch 5. Could any one help me with this problem?it won't work for anything so I can't do face time ether. If anyone could give me suggestings , that wold be great!

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. Other uses have had your problem and had to go to Apple.

Why does my imac camera not work with maverick operating system

i updated my software to 10.9.2 yesterday and facetime and photobooth dont recognize my built in camera on my imac

Try these in order:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and
     after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears.
     Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

Hi there bananas321,
You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

Why magic jack apps is not working on my iphone 5?

why magic jack apps is not working on my iphone 5?

I have the same problem. I contacted magic jack, and after more than an hour of waiting, here is the final part of our discussion, before I had to leave to go to work:
Me: the magic jack app has worked fine for months unregistered. Never had a problem before. I must go to work now. I will leave the chat box open. if you could, send me a list of possible fixes and I will try to apply them when I get back. Please write in detail. Is there a way that I can get in touch and get a senior rep on right away to handle my problem when I get back, or do I hae to wait again when I call next time?
Kara: I am one of the senior rep here and in fact one of the supervisors . Here is what you are going to do:
Kara: Once you register the magicjack app into your Iphone, we can refresh your account connections here manually however if you dont register it, no options in our end to work for your connections since the MJ app is not used to be registered. No worries, we can remove your account if you dont want the service anymore for free.
+++++++++++++++++
So, it would seem that either there is a problem that they don't know about, or else magic jack is trying to force everyone to not choose option 3 on the opening screen, the one which allows you to continue to make a call without registering.
Has anyone received a solution to this problem from magic jack support?

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes and App Store on my iPhone? Nothing happens if I click buy for apps or music. If I then go to settings/iTunes App Store my Apple ID is not there. If I then enter ID and password it does not save or link to account?

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes or App Store on my iPhone? When I try to buy apps or music it asks for Apple ID so I enter my info and nothing happens. When I go to settings/iTunes App Store my Apple ID is not there. When I enter my ID and password it does not save or link to account. I do not have this problem with iPad ID is stored and can be used in App Store and iTunes. I have just upgraded to 5c and it's still a problem.

When fist setting up your new iphone you will be asked to log in with an apple id and password. If this did not happen you can then do as you suggested going to settings to itunes and app store and add your apple id login. This apple id login must have already been created for the iphone to accept it. If this apple id is already created but is not being accepted by your iphone you then should shut down your iphone and restart the device.
Good luck.
