Activating iPhone
You must activate iPhone by signing up for a service plan with an iPhone service
carrier in your area and registering iPhone with the network.
Your iPhone may have been activated at the time of purchase. If it isn’t activated,
contact your iPhone retailer or cellular service provider.
For more information about iPhone, go to www.apple.com/iphone.
Setting Up iPhone
Before you can use iPhone, you must set it up in iTunes. During setup, you can create a
new Apple ID or specify an existing Apple ID for making purchases with iPhone. (The
iTunes Store may not be available in all countries or regions.) iTunes also records the
serial number of your iPhone in case you need it.
Set up iPhone:
1 Download and install the latest version of iTunes from www.itunes.com/download.
2 Connect iPhone to a USB 2.0 port on your Mac or PC using the cable that came
with iPhone.
3 Follow the onscreen instructions.
In the Set Up Your iPhone screen, select “Automatically sync contacts, calendars and
DQQMOCTMUŒVQEQP°IWTGVJQUGKVGOUVQU[PECWVQOCVKECNN[YJGP[QWEQPPGEVK2JQPG
to your computer. You can also customize your sync settings in iTunes. See “Syncing
with iTunes” on page 53.
Note: If you have a visual impairment, VoiceOver can help you set up iPhone without
a sighted assistant. VoiceOver describes aloud what appears on the screen, so you
can use iPhone without seeing it. When you connect iPhone to your computer, iTunes
detects whether you’re using a compatible screen reader on your computer, such as
VoiceOver (Mac) or GW Micro Window-Eyes (PC), and automatically enables VoiceOver
on iPhone. A sighted user can also enable VoiceOver on iPhone using Accessibility
settings. (VoiceOver may not be available in all languages.) See “VoiceOver” on
page 230.

Connecting to the Internet
iPhone connects to the Internet whenever you use Mail, Safari, YouTube, Stocks, Maps,
Weather, the App Store, or the iTunes Store.
How iPhone Connects to the Internet
iPhone connects to the Internet using either a Wi-Fi network or a cellular data network.
iPhone does the following, in order, until connected:
 Connects over the last Wi-Fi
network you used that’s available.
 If no previously used Wi-Fi networks are available, iPhone shows a list of Wi-Fi
networks in range. Tap a network and, if necessary, enter the password to join.
Networks that require a password show the lock icon next to them. You can
prevent iPhone from automatically showing available networks. See “Wi-Fi” on
page 189.
 If no Wi-Fi networks are available or you choose not to join any, iPhone connects to
the Internet over a cellular data network ( , , or ). You can prevent iPhone from
using cellular data in Settings. See “Network” on page 193.
If a Wi-Fi network or a cellular data network isn’t available, iPhone can’t connect to
the Internet.
Note: The 3G (UMTS) cellular network supports simultaneous voice and data
communications on GSM models. For all other network connections (EDGE or GPRS
on GSM models, or EV-DO or 1xRTT on a CDMA model), you can’t use Internet services
while you’re on the phone unless iPhone also has a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet.
Many Wi-Fi networks can be used free of charge including, in some countries or
regions, Wi-Fi hotspots provided by your iPhone carrier. Some Wi-Fi networks require
a fee. To join a Wi-Fi network at a hotspot where charges apply, you can usually open
Safari to see a webpage that allows you to sign up for service.
22
Chapter 2 Getting Started
Joining a Wi-Fi Network
The Wi-Fi settings let you turn on Wi-Fi and join Wi-Fi networks.
Turn on Wi-Fi: Choose Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on.
Join a Wi-Fi network: Choose Settings > Wi-Fi, wait a moment as iPhone detects
networks in range, then select a network (fees may apply to join some Wi-Fi networks).
If necessary, enter a password and tap Join (networks that require a password appear
with a lock icon).
Once you join a Wi-Fi network manually, iPhone automatically connects to it whenever
the network is in range. If more than one previously used network is in range, iPhone
joins the one last used.
When iPhone is connected to a Wi-Fi network, the Wi-Fi
icon in the status bar at the
top of the screen shows the connection strength. The more bars you see, the stronger
the connection.
(QTKPHQTOCVKQPCDQWVEQP°IWTKPI9K(KUGVVKPIUUGG¥Wi-Fi” on page 189.
Cellular Data Network Access
iPhone can access the Internet through your iPhone carrier’s cellular network. Check
the carrier’s network coverage in your area for availability.
If iPhone is connected to the Internet via the cellular data network, the UMTS/EV-DO ( ),
EDGE ( ), or GPRS/1xRTT ( ) icon appears in the status bar.
Depending on your model of iPhone and the network connection, you may not be
able to receive calls while iPhone transfers data over the cellular network—when
downloading a webpage, for example.
GSM: On an EDGE or GPRS connection, incoming calls may go directly to voicemail
during data transfers. For incoming calls that you answer, data transfers are paused.
CDMA: On EV-DO connections, data transfers are paused when you answer incoming
calls. On 1xRTT connections, incoming calls may go directly to voicemail during data
transfers. For incoming calls that you answer, data transfers are paused.
Data transfer resumes when you end the call.
Turn 3G on (GSM models): In Settings, choose General > Network and tap Enable 3G.
When you’re outside your carrier’s network, you may be able to access the Internet
through another carrier. To enable email, web browsing, and other data services
whenever possible, turn Data Roaming on.
Turn Data Roaming on: In Settings, choose General > Network and turn Data
Roaming on.

Syncing and File Sharing
About Syncing
Syncing copies information from your computer or online account to iPhone, then
keeps the information in sync by copying changes made in one location to the other.
You use iTunes on your computer to sync contacts, calendars, and other information;
iOS apps; photos and videos; and music and other iTunes content. By default, syncing
occurs whenever you connect iPhone to your computer.
;QWECPCNUQEQP°IWTGK2JQPGVQCEEGUUCEEQWPVUYKVJQPNKPGUGTXKEGRTQXKFGTUUWEJCU
MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, Google, Yahoo!, and others. Your information on those
services is synced over the air.
Syncing Accounts
MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, Google, Yahoo!, and other online service providers
sync information—which might include contacts, calendars, browser bookmarks,
and notes—wirelessly over the air, so you don’t have to connect iPhone to your
computer. The wireless Internet connection can be via your cellular network or your
local Wi-Fi network.
Some service providers—including MobileMe and Microsoft Exchange—push
information updates. This means that syncing happens whenever any information is
changed. The Push setting in Fetch New Data must be turned on (it’s on by default).
Other providers sync by periodically “fetching” changes that have occurred. Use the
Fetch setting to determine how frequently this happens. See “Fetch New Data” on
page 203.
For information about setting up accounts on iPhone, see “Adding Mail, Contacts, and
Calendar Accounts” on page 25.

the call will work, and sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due to network
unavailability or environmental interference. Some cellular networks may not accept
an emergency call from iPhone if it doesn’t have a SIM card or if the SIM card is locked
(GSM models), or if you haven’t activated your iPhone. If you’re on a FaceTime video
call, you must end that call before you can call an emergency number.

Syncing Voice Memos
iTunes syncs voice memos to your iTunes library when you connect iPhone to your
computer. This lets you listen to voice memos on your computer and provides a
backup if you delete them from iPhone.
Voice memos are synced to the Voice Memos playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it
doesn’t exist. When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos
app until you delete them. If you delete a voice memo on iPhone, it isn’t deleted from
the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from iTunes, it
is deleted from iPhone the next time you sync with iTunes.
You can sync the iTunes Voice Memos playlist to the iPod app on iPhone using the
Music pane in iTunes.
Sync the Voice Memos playlist to iPhone:
1 Connect iPhone to your computer.
2 In iTunes, select iPhone in the Devices list.

About Contacts
Contacts makes it easy to call, email, or text your friends and associates. You can add
contacts directly on iPhone, or sync contacts from applications on your computer.
If you have a MobileMe or Microsoft Exchange account with Contacts enabled, or

connecting iPhone to your computer.
You can open Contacts from the Home screen, or from the Phone app.

 In iTunes, sync contacts from Google or Yahoo!, or sync with applications on your
computer (see “iPhone Settings Panes in iTunes” on page 54)
 Set up a MobileMe or Microsoft Exchange account on iPhone, with Contacts
enabled (see “Setting Up MobileMe Accounts” on page 26 or “Setting Up Microsoft
Exchange Accounts” on page 27)

Hearing Aid Compatibility
The FCC has adopted hearing aid compatibility (HAC) rules for digital wireless phones.
These rules require certain phones to be tested and rated under the American National
Standard Institute (ANSI) C63.19 hearing aid compatibility standards. The ANSI standard
for hearing aid compatibility contains two types of ratings: an “M” rating for reduced
radio frequency interference to enable acoustic coupling with hearing aids that don’t
operate in telecoil mode, and a “T” rating for inductive coupling with hearing aids
operating in telecoil mode. These ratings are given on a scale from one to four, where
four is the most compatible. A phone is considered hearing aid compatible under FCC
rules if it is rated M3 or M4 for acoustic coupling and T3 or T4 for inductive coupling.
For current iPhone hearing aid compatibility ratings, go to
www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html.
Hearing aid compatibility ratings aren’t a guarantee that a particular hearing aid works
with a particular phone. Some hearing aids may work well with phones that don’t
meet particular ratings. To ensure interoperability between a hearing aid and a phone,
use them together before purchasing them.
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the
wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be some newer wireless
technologies used in this phone that have not been tested yet for use with hearing
