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 ??

  • Unlocked Iphone 5 not working with Idea cellular in India?

    I bought an iphone 5 from Apple store in San Jose California, and used it with an at&t connection for 3 months. I have moved to India last week and am trying to use it with an Idea cellular connection. It gives me following error:
    The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
    The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.
    Can someone tell me what do i have to do here. The phone is not locked to any carrier!!!

    Does the purchase receipt lists it as "Unlocked iPhone 5"
    If yes, pop in AT&T, Airtel or Aircel sim inside and connect in iTunes to activate. Once activated you can use non-supported carrier's sim (idea or any other)
    If no: Get it unlocked from the carrier.

  • Why Model MD297AE/A is not working with Fcae time and Model MD293C/A is working in UAE with Facetime

    Why Model MD297AE/A is not working with Fcae time and Model MD293C/A is working in UAE with Facetime.
    In fact I have given my iPhone to my daughter to use in Canada (purchased from UAE ISP) she is unable to use Face Time within Canada. ?
    Is it possibile to activate FaceTime in Canada if iPhone is purchase from UAE.
    Purchase under Points by ISP (No contract)
    Thanks
    Abbas

    Hello sir
           I agree what u replied for the above question, but because of the UAE request, you cannot deactivate the facetime completely from this iphone, they should stop working through SIM network. The iphone is a universal mobile which can travel all over the world, many tourist people will suffer due to that, pls re-consider in taking back and try to make it upgrading this software.
    Thanks

  • Why my i pod is not working with out charger

    hey, my i pod is not working with out the charger plugged into it?!

    What do you mean? Please be more precised so I may help you father. If it is plugged in, but won't open. You must wait at least 5 minutes before using it again. Ipod need a certain amount of power for it to start. Or even when its plugged in but wont charge, make sure it is connected very well to the computer or the power outlet to the Ipod. Lastly, if you are charging at another place, for example in your friend's house. The voltage power may be different from where you mostly charge it from. But if it isn't plugged. Maybe it need to be charged?
    Hope this helps.

  • Why the iPad internal speakers not working with some applications and key sound?

    My iPad1 ' internal speakers not fully functioning. It is working with music and video, YouTube , but not working with applications such as games.
    Also with key pad sound .
    Please help me in this regard.

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
