  • Trying to activate my apple tv and stuck on the activation

    I just brought a 3rd generation apple TV and trying to install it.  It seems to be stuck on activation screen.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router.

    I'm stuck on activation screen because my phone won't accept my password for my apple i.d. I reformat and reset and updated everything but it still wont go through..please help

    Try making a new Apple ID? I don't really understand what you mean.. Make a new apple ID, log in with that one and then when you are on your phone log out of it and THEN log in our old ID? If you still can't log in the old one then it's most probably a bug or something.. Anyway.. Good luck with your problem!!

  • My ipod touch 5th gen is stuck on activation error, how do i fix it?

    My ipod touch 5th generation is stuck on activation error and I got this for Christmas so I don't know what the ipod developer program is! please help

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • HT201210 Stuck in Activation Limbo, How do I get out of it?

    I have an iPhone 4s. I've had iOS7 ever since the beta came out. I received it with my iOS Developer Certificate.
    Last night my phone just went into the Activation Mode, like when you turn your iPhone on for the first time. It is stuck in Activation Limbo. It will not move past the screen after you select a Wi-Fi connection. This message appears...
    "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 at apple.com/support."
    Well I've connected my iPhone to iTunes and it says my software is out of date and needs to be updated. When I check for updates, it says my sortware is up-to-date and won't do anything. It won't even let me back up my phone.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a way I can get my Phone back so I can use it? Do I just have to wait until it just randomly with Activate?

    Hi
    I am having this exact same problem. Apparently you need to put the phone in DFU mode, then restore the phone (i would advise backing up your phone before hand) However my phone will not allow me to do this so i am stuck as well.

  • Iphone 3g Hangs and stucks at activation Screen on update to OS 3.0

    Hello Friends,
    My Iphone 3g Hangs and stucks at activation Screen on update to OS 3.0.
    I updated the phone to OS 3.0 last night and to my surpsrise after the OS Completely installs and restarts the phone,the phone then hangs and all i can see is a black screen when the phone is connected to PC.
    As soon as i disconnect, it shows the Itunes-PC Connect image asking for activation.
    Again if a connect back,it hangs and keeps on restarting ..over and over again.
    i tried everything:
    1) Re-Install Itunes 8.2
    2) Re start OS
    3) CHnage USB Cable
    4) Change PC
    5) Keep the phone connected for around 4 hours expecting some miracle to happen still no use.
    ** If i try to donwgrade back to 2.2.1 then it givess error to and not able to downgrade.
    Now i have put myself in a situation wherein i had to switch to other phone.
    The phone is just getting rust as there is no Support/Care center in India.
    Please someone help me out.
    Atleast let me know :
    Is any hardware part involved in activation of phone?

    Close iTunes and unplug iphone
    Search web and download the 2.2.1 ipsw file.
    Go to device manager on PC and delete the USB option for Apple under the hardware options.
    Reboot PC
    Plug in iphone and wait for dreaded connection picture
    hold power button and home button until apple logo appears
    continue to hold home button and release power button until connection picture appears again
    Your PC should now find the iphone in recovery mode
    Now open iTunes and it will prompt you to restore
    Hold the shift button on the keyboard and click the restore button at the same time
    This will allow you to browse for the correct ipsw file
    select the 2.2.1 file that you downloaded
    your iphone will now restore
    Once completed, you will need to resync
    Now you are back to square one but at least have a phone that works
    Now make an appt at the Genius Bar and make them update it for you
    Mine is scheduled for next week

    Reset the phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like your iPhone is in what is called Activation Lock. Please review the following information about Activation Lock, specifically the What if I forget my Apple ID password? section.

  • My iphone stuck on activation  email

    hello
    i bought an iphone 4 from some guy 1 year ago and i update it and now its stuck on activation email screen and i cant reach the guy i bought it from please help
    thanks

    Activation lock only requires that you enter you password to proceed, not your ID (email).  Just enter the password for the ID (email) shown on the screen.
    To recover your iClolud ID (email), see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625.
