Help - After 4 months I still can't activate my ac...

Hi,
Been having a huge nightmare with BT customer support.
Moved house in April and signed up for BT phone/broadband package and pre-paid the first year. Was a month after move in before we finally had broadband but all good eventually. Then get email asking to activate my account. Follow the link in the email, fill out my details and it tells me to use another email address as that ones already in use! Trouble is that field on the web page is pre-filled with no option to change it...
Cue lots of phone calls to call centres, numerous emails and no progress. Found out that it seems my email is attached to an old business account thats no longer active which was causing the problem but seemed no-one at BT could resolve the issue - even though I supplied another email address for them to use against the account.
Have written a letter to Warren Buckley, MD of customer service with no response and now have a follow up in the post.
I'm frankly appalled at BT customer service. It seems no-one has a clue what's going on and how to fix this seemly simple issue. I'm concerned I've been charged for broadband for that first month but with no way to activate my account online and check the bill who knows?
Any pointers of how to sort this out would be much appreciated!
Thanks

    I just bought this in order to copy and paste from a PDF and after I convert I still can't..

    Hi helpme59,
    It depends upon the restrictions set on the pdf.
    If the creator of the pdf has set restrictions against copying then you will not be able to copy the content.
    Are you facing the same issue with all the pdf's?
    Would it be possible to share the pdf with me.

  • Activation server is not available on iphone 3GS i put it in DFU mode but still can not activate i went to apple store but they did not help?

    activation server is not available on iphone 3GS i put it in DFU mode but still can not activate i went to apple store but they did not help?

    There are four possible causes of the activation error:
    The activation server is unavailable. Rare, but it happens. Usually fixed within minutes.
    Your antivirus or firewall (or your router's firewall) is blocking access to the domain gs.apple.com on ports 80 and 443.
    Your phone is jailbroken.
    Your phone isn't jailbroken, but the computer you are connected to during the restore or update was used to hack or jailbreak some other iOS device, and its network database was corrupted in the process.
    Perhaps this will provide you some clues as to how to proceed. If your iPhone has not been jailbroken, Apple has some troubleshooting suggestions here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3424?viewlocale=en_US 
    If your iPhone has been jailbroken, you're on your own. We can provide no assistance for jailbroken devices in these forums.

    1) Check your iTunes account.
    2) you have to be at your computer. Apple is very smart, the place you put your I'd or password is not near data base.
    3) make sure your ID and Password is correct. When type on the phone, if you don't check you might press the wrong key some time cases where people have long Neil.
    4) go to apple website n reset the I'd or password.

    sorry, but it sounds like your regional apple systems - activation server or network - are overload. you might wait or go to the next apple store.

  • After 16 hours, I still can't reactivate my iPhone 4s.

    I spent 3 hours in an Apple Store last night, working with mutliple techs and managers.  I brought my cell in due to overheating.  The genius suggested I do a complete restore, to factory settings.  It seemed to load the operating system fine, but is now stuck on the activation screen.  We have tired multiple wifi networks and iTunes and I did the restore again, through iTunes this morning.  Still getting the same message, "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes. If this problem persists, contact Apple Support.."  On iTunes, I get this error message, "Your request could not be processed. We're sorry, but there was an error processing your request. Please try again later".  I bought my phone from Apple, never messed with any features, didn't have many apps on it, etc. I spoke with Sprint Customer Service and their Technical Reps last night too.  Everybody seems to be as perlexed as I am.  Could there be a possibility, that Find my iPhone's Activation Lock, is preventing my cell from activating?  Should that feature been shut off, prior to the restore?  Is there anyway to shut it off now and see if activation will go through?

    I am having my suggestion deleted by somebody, only trying to help, because I couldn't find any help here and stumped both Apple and Sprint Techs..... YES, Activation Lock, does prevent you from activating your own iPhone.  I worked on mine forever and had it looked at by many Apple Geniuses.  I removed my device from Find my iPhone and it activated perfectly!  Does make complete sense though.. Activation Lock does its job, so you just need to make sure Find my iPhone is completely off BEFORE doing a complete restore. It was very simple to add my device back, after completely the full backup.  If you did the restore, without turning off Find my iPhone, you still can get past the activation "road block", by removing your device on icloud.  Sincerely hope this information helps somebody and doesn't insult or frustrate anybody.

  • Need help activating PSE12. Troubleshooting items all verify.  Still can't activate.

    I purchased Adobe PS Elements 12 and installed it from DVD.  When I try to use PSE12, I get the following message:
    Either your computer is offline or the clock on your computer is set incorrectly, causing a connection error. An Internet connection is required. Please connect to the Internet or adjust your clock and try again.
    I have been to the adobe.com troubleshooting website and have verified the following:
           I can connect to the internet.
           I can access secure sites, including the adobe activation servers.
           My hosts file is fine.
           My GlobalSign Root CA certificate is installed and enabled.
           My date, time, and time zone are set properly
    I have spent most of an evening in a chat session with two different Adobe reps. During these sessions, I disabled the Windows Firewall and my anti-virus software to no avail.  I still could not activate PSE12.  The chat session was abruptly terminated (not by me). 
    Surely, there must be an easier or alternative way to activate the software.  Please help.

    Update:  Spent another evening with Adobe Technical Support.  All of the previous night's efforts were over a wireless internet connection.  After deleting files from <UserProfile>\AppData\Local\Temp and establishing a direct connection to the internet via ethernet cable (vice wireless connection), I was able to activate the software.  I'm not exactly sure of cause-and-effect here (it's still possible that the Adobe activation servers have issues), but I can finally use the software.  Note to Adobe:  activation, especially for personal use, really shouldn't be this difficult.

  • After deleting .plist items, STILL can't find my old email

    I just updated to 10.5.6
    Had some problems w/Mail (ie not sending, receiving or quitting) I solved that problem by following forum suggestions to remove the .plist items in my Mail folder.
    But I still can't see any of my "pre-update" emails that were sitting in my INBOX or SENT box, nor any emails in my ON MY MAC mailboxes.
    Can anyone help?

    Jaguar was 10.2, and Panther 10.3.
    Although your Mail may now work, with such a leap in versions you should study the following now to be certain of all conversion results, and possible need to remove other leftover files, and is pasted from other posts in other topics:
    Lots of issues arose when people upgraded from 10.3 to 10.4 and Mail 2.x, but the issues are nearly the same if upgrading from 10.3 to 10.5, or even from an earlier version.
    For background read the info in the topic at the link below, which while written about conversion from 10.3 to 10.4, would also structurally apply to a conversion from 10.3 to 10.5, even if using 10.4 in between. Sadly, it would appear the conversion process has not been strengthened, although the real fault lies with the condition of the mailboxes prior to Upgrade.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5664866&#5664866
    In this situation the messages are not lost, but properly converting them for use in Mail 3.0 (or first in Mail 2.0) can be a detailed and tedious project. The best thing would be to have used Rebuild on every mailbox prior to the Upgrade. Of course I recognize it may be too late for that now, so the "devil is in the details"!
    There is an issue often when going directly from 10.3.9 and Mail 1.3.11 related to conversion of the data in the mbox file into xxxx.emlx files in the Messages folder that Mail 3.x uses. The Messages folder came into use with 10.4.
    An important comparison to make, after you know where to look in the Finder, is to compare the size of the mbox file in any xxxx.mbox folder to that of the Messages folder in the same mailbox. The reason to do this is check whether all messages that were in the mbox when the Upgrade was done were converted properly.
    There can be issues if you ran a still earlier version of Mail, and other leftover files might then be present which could be problematic.
    Please do not hesitate to ask any and all questions you need to ask to get comfortable with all you may need to do, depending on the number of large and complex mailboxes you had prior to the Upgrade.
    If nothing else, be sure to read:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301315
    which was mentioned the referenced topic.
    Btw, if the Messages folder of this xxxx.mbox were to be near or over 2 GB all by itself there could be another problem called overstuffing.

  • I restored my 2nd hand ipad 2, previous owner released my ipad from their account and I still can not activate it using my apple id and password.  What do I have to do now?  Please help!

    I bought my ipad 2 from an acquintance.  I updated my software to iOS7 and after that was when all this started.  I got locked out because I was not using the right password.  After that, I restored my ipad.  After learning that the previous owner had to remove the ipad from their account, I contacted her and she did remove it.  Now, when I get to the Activate screen, it will not take my ID and password.  I've done all the steps necessary but can not get past this.  I've read so many threads and other articles on restoring and having the previous owner remove it, I've done all of that, but what do I do now?  Please help! Thank you.

    The previous owner/user should have done this.
