How do I know what carrier I'm on

I recently got an iphone 5 s of my uncle, because it gets the data elements lost and found shops selling on ebay and they can buy. I restored the iphone from itunes and when I went to turn it on, I was told that I had to use a sim card to unlock it. I bought a regular o2 sim card, but it did not work because it is not "invalid". I had no idea how to know which operator on the phone was unlock so I just ordered all the free sim cards available in the United Kingdom, but none of them have worked so far. I was told that the phone has been found french as default language, so I was wondering if the sim card must be from a certain country. or y at - there a way to know what carrier it uses so I can call them and ask them to unlock the phone. I tried restore several times and had no luck. any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

You would need to call Apple and give them the imei number and they can tell you.

  • Should I delete the programs of 2004? How can you know what is safe to delete?

    Original title: remove programs

    I think I have a virus.  I see on my computer a few applications with and installed as of 2004.  The computer was purchased in 2007.  When I run it in safe mode, it works fine and all applications have a date of 2007 or newer.  Should I delete the programs of 2004? How can you know what is safe to delete?

    Hello

    This is not an indication of malware. Could be those are placed on the
    computer by the manufacturer of the system and that was the date that firstly, they prepared their
    for massive installation, or if they did not set a date and be used arbitrarily.

    =============================================================

    If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
    scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
    resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
    cause.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
    to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
    its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
    extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

    It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
    the regular windows when you can.

  • need help on history, recycle bin and cookies: how will I know what someone has done on my laptop?

    I would like to learn more about history on my computer vista laptop microsoft and more on maybe the trash and or cookies. For example, someone else used my laptop last night and delete everything that he was looking at or for then how can I know what it was?

    Assuming that it has not been removed, you can view the history of visited web sites by clicking on the Favorites button, click the history tab.

    The only things in the trash are files or folders that have been removed from the system (no evidence they have been read or something like that).

    Cookies will not tell you anything either because they are terms in the code and you can not tell what web site they belong - no good for tracking not web history (and they apply only to the history of the web).

    You can view the Start / recent items to display some of the files which were recently seen (assuming that the list has not been removed).  That may help some.  You can also go to C:\Users\\Recent for a longer list of recently accessed files (as long as you know the user name).

    There is actually very little that you can do with hindsight to see what anyone seen or done on your computer.

    If you want to implement such a procedure, use the Parental http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Set-up-Parental-Controls control and activity reports control Parentalhttp://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Set-up-Parental-Controls-activity-reports.  Do this for each account you want to track.  Then you can check what you wish now that you could check.

    I hope this helps.
