Big problem with my iPhone 3Gs. Can't activate iOS 5... I'm already using at

HELP!

are you able to see the apps on the home screen? If so, it's most likely an issue with your carrier
This is also an issue that can appear on devices that have been modified in an unauthorized manner (not judging, just saying)

  • Hi i have a problem with my iphone 3gs. i updated the software to ios 6 but now when trying to activate the phone it comes up with a message saying that the activation server is currently unavailable, also it always says no sim! what can i do?

    i have an activation problem with my iphone 3gs. i updated the software to io6 using itunes but now the phone will not complete activation because it keeps saydin the activation server is not available and to re try later. ive been trying for 6 hours but it still wont activate. if i try using itunes then it sayd no sim inserted when there is one inserted, what can i do?

    You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
    and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

    If I've understood you correctly then the ALLEXCEPT function may be what you're after and it could be applied in a similar way to the following...
    =
    RANKX(
    ALL(Table1),
    CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS(table1),
    ALLEXCEPT(Table1, Table1[ContactReason])
    DENSE
    If this has missed the mark, would it be possible to clarify the requirement further?

    Did you already try the suggestions from this article?
    Symptoms
    In certain situations, iPhone may present one of the following symptoms:
    "Invalid SIM" or "No SIM Card installed" alert appears intermittently.
    Status bar displays "No Service", "No SIM" or "Searching" in a location with good network coverage.
    Resolution
    If you encounter any of the above symptoms on your iPhone, try these steps to attempt to resolve the issue:
    Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
    Toggle Airplane mode On and Off.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    Check for a carrier settings update. Tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, a prompt will appear.
    Remove the SIM Card and verify that it is a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it is not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
    Restore the iPhone.

    This support document http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4451 relates to the 3194 error. Generally this error has to do with trying to install an iOS that is not the most current. Maybe you tried to jailbreak the phone, or downgrade iOS? Any of this apply to you?

    if itunes can no longer pickup your ipod, and you cant even do anything to your ipod, your best option is to either call apple care, or just take it to the nearest apple shop. i had a similar problem, mines currently at apple care repairs and they might just end up giving me a replacement.

  • I have big problems with mountain lion. you can not have a boot disk system I resulted in the need to re-download the os from scratch impiegandoci 8 hours, it is outrageous even with windows 95.

    at least that the operator has confirmed to me that he called me. I also have problems with either the start of the mac with the power off. I can not understand if it crashes or is just very very slow.
    Finally, I have a problem with the external hard disck. I often said to have been ejected incorrectly (not true) and I start to restore the startup recovery disk because disk utility is ineffective from the normal operating system .. is a shocking thing, but how you reduced. in four years it had never happened. seem to have windows or worse. Wake up.
    I am an Italian, alas, and then I would like an answer to my language because my € are the same as German French or English.

    You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
    Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
    If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
    Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
    Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
    To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
    You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''

    I have some problems with my iPhone. Can i change my iphone from USA (ME495LL/A) in Germany? Warranty is ok till october 2014

    No you cannot. The iPhone warranty is only good in the country of purchase. You would need to bring it back to the US, or send it to someone that could take it to an Apple store in the US. Apple will not accept international shipments.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Maybe a long shot, but WD is not known for the quality of some of their enclosures, although I do like the drives themselves. It may be worth mounting this drive in a different enclosure, something like one of OWC's FireWire enclosures with the highly reliable Oxford chip sets. I wouldn't be inclined to trust a WD enclosure, especially if it already seemed to be acting in a flakey manner.
    Here's an example of what I mean:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MEP924FW8E2O/
    I have 3 of these and I really like them.
    From what I understand, if the drive spins up, it is often possible to recover data from it. To be absolutely certain to destroy the data, you just about have to take a hammer to the disk. Hopefully, there will be a way to get your data back.
    Good luck!

  • HT4623 I have a big problem with my IPhone 4 since I've updated to IOS 6.0.1.

    I've got a problem with my IPhone 4 since I've updated to IOS 6.0.1. After the call I'd like to end the call but the picture on the screen becomes magnified
    so that you cannot see anything and the screen is not reacting. I need to restart the phone. But 7 or 8 times daily to restart the phone  is not really convenient.
    Has got anybody the same problem? How can I go back to IOS 5 ? Before the update I was a happy user of IPhone.
    Thanks for help.

    Downgrading your ios is unsupported by apple. Go to settings, general, accesibility, zoom off..?

  • Got big problem with my iphone , its not charging as it did before i updated (5.0.1) Now its charging very slowly and it doesnt show the charging sign on screen..

    got big problem with my iphone4 , its not charging as it did before i updated (5.0.1) Now its charging very slowly and it doesnt show the charging sign on screen..

    How do you know its charging very very slowly? Is the screen back on?
    Once a month you should charge your phone to 100% then drain it, then charge it back up to 100%.
    Just leave the phone in and do what is said above.
    How long do you think it will take to charge to 100%?

  • Problem with updating iPhone 3gs

    Can someone help? I am trying to update my old iPhone 3gs 8gig. Still on iOS4, and need to update it to iOS6. Because it's still on iOS 4 i can only update via iTunes, however, as soon as i start the update download, it runs up until the last few megabytes and then it just quits, and the update has to be downloaded all over again only to get to 784 of the 786mb download and it quits again...i am using a wifi network, so it cant be the connection...
    Any suggestions?

    You can do a google and find out how to download the file from another source, then also find out how to manually update your phone.   It isn't hard, and maybe that will get you going.
