Q: No SIM card installed

quite regularly on iOS8 I seem to get "No SIM card installed" "OK".

this happens often ten when I open a new app or such and when I swich between apps.

the message is correct! I have NO SIM card installed! I just don't need to be told about it!

how do I fix this?

iPad, iOS 8, Ipad mini

Hi elt0njohn,

If you are having an issue with your iPad giving an error message about no SIM card installed, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

If you see 'No SIM' alert on iPhone

Note that the article says iPhone in the title but the steps are the same for an iPad.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Best,

thanks brett for your reply, but the issue is that i DO NOT have a SIM installed, and in iOS7 this did not get reported every minute that i opened a new application. I have no intention of putting a SIM card in the device any time soon. So why is iOS8 suddenly reporting this on my device?

thanks for your help
