Getting message "we are unable to complete your activation at this time" when trying to update iphone 3gs to ios5

After downlaoding ios5 and installing I get the message "we are unable to complete your activation at this time" when trying to update iphone 3gs to ios5 using itunes. Can anyone help?

Hi David,
any luck later?
I'm experiencing the same issue and I see that you're also posting from China. Not sure is location-related but if you managed to activate you iPhone: how did you do it? Just keep on trying?
I'm a bit fed up of trying. It's already two full days...
Thanks, ciao.

Trying to update iphone 3GS. I use it only for apps and music. It will not allow me to update through itunes? What do I do?

I have a iphone I do not use as a phone anymore. I use the apps and the music on it though. I downloaded itunes and I am trying to update the phone so I can purchase music and apps for it. When I plug it to the computer it starts syncing and runs a good 20 minutes and then I get an error saying it cannot update and it takes me to a update repair page that does nothing to help. Can someone help me on what to do? I have my own itunes account, I have wi-fi, I have all the songs on my phone I purchased but I cant get it to sync with itunes at all. I can do nothing. Is this usual? Can I do something so I can still use the phone as a Ipod putting new stuff on it or am I stuck with all the old stuff and I can never add anything on it? HELP

To be exact the error says the iphone could not be restored, an unknown error occured (-1). What is that?

Use iTunes to update.

HT4972 Trying to update iPhone 3GS to 5.1.1 iTunes has recognised the update, but my phone is still stuck in the restore stage at the 'Connect to iTunes' screen. Any advice?

Updated my iPhone 3GS (recent phone - xmas this year), to 5.1.1 when iTunes suggested it. Restored phone under advice from prompts, iTunes has recognised my phone to have updated, but the phone itself is still stuck on the 'Connect to iTunes' screen in the restore phase. Very frustrating. Any advice?

New PC – Trying to update iPhone 5, says there is not enough space

I recently purchased a new PC. I transferred all of my music from iTunes on my old pc to my new pc using an external hard drive, and imported the playlists. Now, when I try to sync my iPhone to my new pc, it says there is not enough space.
It appears that itunes thinks that I am trying to add additional music to the phone, rather than replace the music that is already on there. How do I go about syncing my phone with my new pc (ie, replacing the music that is on my phone with the same music, just from a different computer)?
If I restore the phone to factory settings and update using a recent backup, will this fix the problem, or will I run into the same issues afterwards, as the music from the backup is technically from my old pc?
Thanks in advance

Would this matter then? can you not update the 3g to the lastest software?

Im trying to restore my iphone 3gs to its factory setting at the same time updating to a newer version 6.1.2. while restoring, itunes states"We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activition at this time." i cant open my phone, what does it mean

99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, because it appears that it was not officially unlocked.

If you did the update through iTunes, try going into the Settings App on your iPhone and doing the Software Update in there. The same thing happened to me, and the wireless update worked.

The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
If so Contact Apple in your Country to Purchase a Snow Leopard Disc...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
In the US...
1-800-MY-APPLE or 1-800-676-2775
After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

If you are on a Windows computer and using antivirus/antispyware software you need to turn off scanning of iPods.
