Can you use an iPhone 4 just like an iPod Touch without the SIM card? Giving it to my son since I got the iPhone 4S today but he's a year or two away from needing a phone.
Is this possible?
Is this possible?
Yes.
Basically, just take your SIM out and give it to him.
Wanted to reset device and restore from his last iPod Touch backup in iTunes. Although, worst case, restore from the last iTunes backup with SIM in, take out SIM and try to mimic his last iPod Touch backup. Just time consuming. Any ideas?
I would say since it's your son, you wouldn't really need to worry about restoring. But you'll need to if you're putting his backup on.
Is it even possible to use a backup from an iPod Touch through iTunes?
I restored the iPhone 4 to factory settings and it won't let you activate without a SIM. If I take out the SIM card while in phone mode, won't it say something like INSERT SIM all of the time on the screen?
You don't necessarily have you use a SIM that has an active line..
I've activated an iPhone 4 with a dead SIM once
