- Thank you so much Helpinghand. I was using another SIM card. Once I replaced it to the iphone's SIM it worked like a charm.
Thank You.

-   I only receive sms's randomly and I do not receive the replies to my sms's. Seems that there are certain numbers that do this but hard to really understand the problem as erratic. I have already changed my old sim for a new one 2 days ago and restored my phone an hour ago, still not working. I really do not know what to do as I rely on sms as a lot of my clients are overseas.

-   I am using the SIM card that came with my iphone, so I don't think that's necessarily the solution. I'm having the same "can't initiate access to voicemail" message. I can see my messages on visual voicemail, but can't get any of them to actually play. I'd love any tips people have! Turning the phone on and off to reset doesn't seem to make any difference. The phone says to try again later, but it's been stuck like this for the past 3-4 days. I've been able to access a few messages at random points during that time when the stars were lined up just right, I guess. But other than that, it hasn't worked.-   hmc11

-   whenever I select the voicemail icon I get the message "unable to initiate connection". I have used the voicemail feature in the past but it does not seem to work anymore. I know messages have been left since this problem started but they are not appearing on the visual voicemail either.-   suephone

Are you using the SIM card that came with the phone or did you use one from another phone. Generally, the first 2 problems are associated with that or an SIM card that doesn't know isn't associated with iPhone.

There are plans to allow you to use iTunes songs as ring tones in a future version of iTunes.

how/where do you dial 1760 and 1750. In the keypad my phone thinks I am making a call, and gives me a "please ang-up message

go into settings - general - reset and then resetting network settings. This should restart your iPhone.

This alone didn't work, but dialling 1760 to switch off voicemail then 1750 to switch it on again. This works!
