How to (legally) unlock your iPhone with AT&T

Posted on by

iPhone UnlockedIf you own an iPhone that is no longer tied to a contract with AT&T, you can legally unlock your device for use on other networks (stateside or internationally) with a little help from AT&T. The process is dead simple.

First you’re going to need to make sure you have:

  • An out-of-contract iPhone
  • AT&T login credentials
  • The iPhone IMEI number (Tap Settings > General > About)
  • Your email address

If you meet these requirements move on to Part 1.

Part 1: Request and Reset

  1. Fill out the request form through AT&T.
  2. Depending on the number of requests AT&T will send you an email with the rest of the info in +/- 5 days.

Additionally, beta versions are buggy. If something goes wrong with an app you’re just going to have to deal with it because app developers will not support iOS 6 until the fall.

Are we good? Great. Let’s go.

iTunes Match setupSubscribing to iTunes Match is about as easy as making an iTunes purchase. All you need to do is plop down $25/year, set up the software, and get to streaming. Yay!

When it’s all said and done you’ll have access (in the U.S. only for now) to all of your music (up to 25,000 songs not counting iTunes purchases) streamed (downloaded) to all of your devices (5 computers with a max of 10 devices) at 256 kbps (unless your songs don’t match up with any in the iTunes catalog) for the most part. Yep, it’s that easy!

When you’re ready and you’ve decided not to dupe your libraries or use a free streaming app alternative, let’s get started with setting up all your devices to work with iTunes Match.
