Can't activate iphone after erasing it from Find my Iphone by error

Hi,
Earlier today I upgraded to IOs 7. Aftr that I erased the iphone from find my iphone (I have backup in the cloud).
After turning on again, it requests: language, then country, then WiFi (no option for SIM code) and then it gives the message: "it make take a few..." but it never activates.
I am in UK but my SIM is from Spain... is that the problem why I can't activate it?
thanks,

It might be.  If you were on AT&T in the U.S. you could only re-activate the device in the U.S. on their network.  Contact your carrier in Spain and ask them.

Now my 4s is in lost mode and when I try to activate it it says it cant be activated at this time because the activiton server is currently unavailable and to try again. I've been doing this for over 24 hours now and theres been no change. iv tried connecting the phone to itunes but itunes just tells me i need to enter my pin to unlock the sim. Does anyone know how to fix this?

  • Can't access my iphone 5s after erase data by 'find my iphone'

    I had an iphone 5s and forgot my passcode. I read in apple support that I can erase data by 'Find my iphone' app inside icloud using computer. I did erase the data. However, my phone couldn't start normally. It's been loading for at least 7 hours.
    Please tell me how to fix it!

    The data that is present on the phone at the time of the reset will not be lost. However, if you already wiped it, then there's no data on the phone to begin with, so it will be fine. If the wipe did not go through and your passcode is still on the phone, then you can try it again after the reset.

  • Reset my iphone after "delete" him in Find my Iphone

    i'm trying to install my iphone again after using "delete" in Find my iphone, but it doesn't work....
    What cai i do??

    Hi Kurt,
    Thanks for the question.  You may need to put your iPhone in Recovery mode in order to restore and activate it again.  Follow the steps in the article below.
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201263
    You can put your iOS device into recovery mode, then restore it using iTunes.
    Use recovery mode
    You might need to use recovery mode to restore your device in these cases:
    iTunes doesn't recognize your device or says it's in recovery mode.
    You see the Apple logo onscreen for several minutes with no progress bar.
    You see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    Learn what to do if you see the progress bar onscreen for several minutes.
    To put your device into recovery mode, follow these steps:
    Turn off your device and leave it off.
    Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes. 
    Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    When you see this screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again. 
    When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.
    Use iTunes to restore your device. Restoring in recovery mode will erase your device. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you might be able to restore from your backup.Get more help
    Learn what to do if you don't see your device in iTunes for OS X, or in iTunes for Windows.
    If you put your device into recovery mode by mistake, restart it. Or you can wait 15 minutes and your device will exit recovery mode by itself.

  • Can't activate iPad after getting it from repair. Need help quick!

    I recently broke the screen of my iPad but the hardware was working very well. Today I got it back from the repair service I gave it to (not Apple store), and when I turn on the iPad, it tells me to activate the iPad using my Apple ID, I enter all my info correctly, but it doesn't unlock. Did they give me a wrong iPad, did I get scammed? Please I need help quickly since I will be leaving the town after 3 days. Thanks for any help

    Do you have the serial number of the iPad you purchased & sent in for repair? If so, look on the back/bottom of the iPad to see the serial number of the iPad you have. Does it match?
     Cheers, Tom

  • Can't activate ipad after erasing?

    I upgraded to ios7 and then could not use my imessages or facetime.  I could not login with my apple account.  I finally resorted to backing up my data in itunes and erasing all of the data  and resetting my IPad.  When I went to set up the IPad as a new device it asked for my apple ID and password for activation but does not recognize the one I use for my apple account. I Iooked through various apple support docs and went into iCloud but there is no device associated with iCloud and I cannot find any previous usernames or passwords associated with the device.  I am stuck.  I now cannot use my Ipad at all.

    Sorry, without the original Apple ID and Password, you cannot activate your iPad. Did someone setup the iPad for you using his/her Apple ID and Password?

  • My iPhone broke and I had to disable it by deleting it from 'Find my iPhone' when I receive the new one in the mail, will I be able to back it up to the backup I made before I deleted it from 'find my iPhone'?

    My iPhone stopped working so under my insurance they are sending me a new phone. They asked that I erase it from Find my iPhone so I can send it back and so i did that and now my macbook air FaceTime and iMessage isn't working. My prime concern is about if the backup from iTunes still work so I can backup my new iPhone when I receive it. there were a lot of important things on it.

    There should be no reason you cannot restore your replacement phone with the backup that you made from your old phone.

  • How can I get all my data back after erasing my iPad from find my iPhone?

    What happened is that I have 2 iPads . So I deleted the two from "find my iPhone" so  one already got deleted but the other one is still awaiting to get delete. What I want to know is that the one that is not deleted yet is using the same ID as the other one... So I have the one that got deleted and I had to put my ID again and all those stuffs and I wanted to get all my photos back but I couldn'. So the other one has the same ID but already did the backup therefore it's supossed to get all its inforMarion back with the ID but the other one has that ID so how can I get my data back and the one that already got deleted?

  • Please, can you confirm that after erase the phone using the find my iphone all my personal data will be unavailable? Someone stole my iphone 6  on the street

    Please, can you confirm that after erase the phone using the find my iphone option,  all my personal data will be completely unavailable? Someone stole my iphone 6 +  on the street. I have already received a mail from apple confirming that is erased. Can I trust on this message? It really works? my 3G connection was working properly.
    Thank you very much

    Hey Joangil,
    Yes! If you have received an email from Apple stating and confirming that it is erased then you should trust this message. It would have all been removed.
    Sorry to hear that your iPhone has been stolen,
    Zach

  • My iphone is stuck on loading circle after erasing iphone from find my iphone

    So one night i was just playing on a app and it froze, i waited about 5 mins and it was still frozen, so i turned off my iphone and from their is where all my problems started.  After waiting a long time for it to start up again my pressing my home button since my lock button is broke, i decided to look up ways on how to solve my problem.  What i found was i had to erase my phone from find my iPhone so i could restore my iphone in itunes.  Well, after erasing my iphone,, it just stayed on a black screen with the loading circle in the middle of it.  It won't connect to itunes either so i can restore it and i don't know what to do.  If you have any advice on what i should do please reply.

    is it possible if my phone runs out of batter, i could plug it in and maybe the loading screen will be gone or can i really just do nothing about it

    Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
    Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
    Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
    NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
    LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)
