How to give my old iPhone for someone else to use?
I'm trying to give my old iPhone to my relative to use but I don't think they can access it.
What is the problem, what do I need to do?
Its not at all complicated
simply go into settings and do a master reset
then they can set it up as if its a new phone
the only possible lingering issue might be if your phone is locked to a particular provider - that is something that really needs to be resolved while your sim is still in the phone - IF it is locked to provider, contact them and ask about procedure for unlocking it
They have to set up a plan for it you can't just give them the phone thats not how it works
Mhmm.
SCottRASC has it right. Follow that link and it will explain how to do everything. Be advised that if the reason that the iPhone can't be accessed is because no one knows the password, that usually indicates a stolen iPhone. Stolen iPhones can't be accessed by anyone except the original REGISTERED owner. You can ask the FBI about that!
- Will Verizon let me use an iphone from someone else? So, I have a blackberry and I have had it for about a year now. I've been wanting an iphone and I plan on maybe buying one from someone on Ebay or something since it's a bit cheaper. Would Verizon let me use an iphone that I bought from someone and not from their store? And would they let me change my plan with it since mine is for a blackberry?
- When you give APPLE a defective IPHON do they give you a reconditioned one back? My IPHONE had a defect, still under warranty, so I took it to an Apple MAC store and after a few days they gave it back, supposedly repaired. Now the replaced IPHONE has a problem, different than the previous problem I'm now having a problem with the taking a photo. Do they just replace your phone with a reconditioned one they say no but?
- Verizon: Can I use an upgrade from someone else on my plan? I have an iPhone 4S and I'm not due for an upgrade until March of next year, but I would like to upgrade to an iPhone 5C. My mom (who is on my plan) has an upgrade available that she doesn't want to use (she does not have a smartphone, just a basic flip phone. I don't know if that matters or not). So I was wondering, am I able to use her upgrade to get a 5C? We have verizon.
- Using someone else s old iPhone? I currently have an iPhone 5. My sister has a 6 currently but she had a 5s that isn't used and while I'm due for an upgrade IIm holding off for another month and a half until the next iPhone comes out. Is it possible to just put my SIM card in her old phone and use that or is it more complicated? Like do I have to go to the apple or Verizon store (my cell carrier) to do this or can I just do this on my own?
