Cannot ACTIVATE NEW I-PHONE because SERVERS are OVERwrought

Still 4 hours later Cannot activate phone no way to contact anyone from apple except to go to an apple store and I will not because they are so poorly staffed with nin-com-poops.

Endless countless millions of people trying to do the SAME thing at the SAME time can do that
Youll have to wait a while

  • I set up my new iPad, then deleted the Pages documents on my old iPad, but this had the effect of deleting them on my new iPad too because they are synced. How do I retrieve the deleted documents?

    Sorry no. That's how it works.
    Check if you still have an old backup and do a restore otherwise it's gone.

  • Cannot create a calendar collection because there are too many already present in

    My OS X Server (Yosemite) error log is throwing this error:
    2014-10-22 00:03:07+0800 [-] [caldav-2]  [-] [twistedcaldav.storebridge.CalendarCollectionResource#error] Cannot create a calendar collection because there are too many already present in <twistedcaldav.directory.calendar.DirectoryCalendarHomeResource object at 0x10743a750>
    ...when I attempt to add more than 50 lists in the Reminders app. I had a similar issue in Mavericks. Is this "50" number available to modify in a config file somewhere?
    My plan is to manage GTD-type projects in my Reminders apps (on iOS and OS X), but this limit is keeping me from creating a list for EVERY project I have.

    Woohoo! I set the integer to "500" and I now have over 200 lists added, and syncing, to my Reminders app and related tools.
    Here's exactly what I did after reading the response from Linc Davis:
    Stop the Calendar service
    Create /Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Config/caldav-user.plist
    Edit contents of "caldav-user.plist", setting your desired integer value:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
    <plist version="1.0">
         <dict>
           <key>MaxCollectionsPerHome</key>    
           <integer>500</integer>
         </dict>
    </plist>
       4. Start the Calendar service
    Enjoy your many more lists.
    Note that a file created in a place other than ~/ may have permissioning issues. To get around this, I made a copy of /Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/caldavd-system.plist, then renamed and edited that file with nano in terminal.

  • I recently updated my iPhone and now find there are a number of songs that I cannot sync to my phone. Some are songs purchased from iTunes.  Is there anyway to remedy this?  I'd really prefer not to have to repurchase music.  Thanks

    I recently ran an updatedafter being prompted multiple times. Now I find there are a number of songs that I cannot sync to my iPhone. Some are songs purchased from iTunes.  Is there anyway to remedy this?  I'd really prefer not to have to repurchase music.

    Why would you repurchase songs simply because they will not sync?  Sorry, that's beyond illogical, it's simply not smart.
    What happens when trying to sync these songs?
    Any errors?

  • Cannot Publish. Error Message: "MobileMe servers are busy."

    Hi,
    I have been trying to publish my site every day for about a week now with no luck. I get the same error message each time:
    iWeb couldn’t publish to MobileMe.
    The MobileMe servers are busy.
    Please try again in a few minutes.
    I've already tried:
    Closing iWeb, restarting computer, logging out via system preferences, trying to log in using bogus username and password, then logging in properly. Have also tried resetting my password and logging in with the new one. Have checked my account is up to date etc.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you

  • Cannot un disable my phone because the time is incorrect?!?

    my iphone is disabled after my little boy kept putting in the wrong code but the time on my phone is incorrect and has been for some time which is another issue in itself, so it wont actually go down?!? someone please help!!!!!!!!!!

    I just re-read this. If your time is not going down you will have to restore your phone. My advice is to go to icloud.com/findmyiphone remotely wipe your phone. Since you cannot get into the phone you will not be able to disable find my iphone in order to restore.

  • Cannot connect new landline phone

    Solved!

    If it works on another line obviously the phone is not the problem

  • Cannot Connet to sever. Because you are not connected? Help Please?

    Ok , i was on a website on my ipod, when the ipod password thing popped up, saying i need to enter my password for my  internet connection. I exitted the site, and then i went to setting and entered my passsword, but it just says unable to connect. I dont get it, it has been running fine for a month. I have the neswest ipod with the newest update. Im beginning to think that the website messed up my ipod. Because i tried to restart the ipod, and i even restored the ipod and they both didnt work. Im really fustrated considering i just got this ipod like 2 months ago, not even. And the wireless connect its self works, because im using it to be on my laptop, and my sister goes on her laptop fine. but out of nowhere it just stops working. Please Help.

    Yes, the reason you are getting the error is the phone cannot provide internet for the laptop and then update itself. It would lose connection as you erase the firmware and try to update. You need to connect the computer to the Internet in some other fashion before you connect the phone to try and fix the update problem. As Ocean20 says, and I completely agree, how would you think you could use the Internet connection of a device that is not only going to turn off and on, but is going to get completely wiped of firmware and restored? It would completely remove the device from the equation here. Does that make sense to you?

  • Cannot delete files from TC because they are in use?

    Hi all, I have converted (SmartConverter) some avi files to my ITunes, now I am trying to remove/delete the old avi files from my Time Capsule but my Imac informes me that this is not possible because the avi files are in use. The last is not the case, at least no by me, and even after a re start I am getting the same messages. even avi files that are not converted are giving me troubles. Before the system says they are in use I am getting a message saying that the files cannot be moved to the bin. I have looked on the net for an solution but without any real luck. I hope somebody can assist me with this. Thanks Prond.

    Figured it out... I used the terminal application/utility and was able to get the files off of my time capsule...

  • When I connect my phone to my comp it tells me that there's an update to iOS 4.3.3, when I try to actually do the update it goes so far and says that it cannot back up my phone because it's disconnected, when nothing's been touched to dc it.

    I've been trying to update my phone to iOS 4.3.3 like it tells me to when I connect my phone to my computer, and it goes so far, then I get an error box (no error number) with a message telling me that my phone can't be backed up because it's disconnected. Now I know I've touched nothing to disconnect it, everything else is working fine, I just CANNOT get my phone to back up. I called Apple and my phone support expired 10 days ago (go figure!!) Anyone else run into this and find a way to get it to work? He got me to delete the backup that was on my system to see if that helped...nothing.

    Hi,
    What is your current computer and OS? It looks as though your iphone is not compatible with your computer.

  • Cannot Activate [New] Ipad - Ipad Not Detected on iTunes

    I received my iPad through the mail, yesterday, and have been unable to use it due to it's inability to reach the activation server ('Could Not Activate iPad' error). I read via the forum that it could be related to a server overdrive, however, it is now 24 hrs later and I am still unable to activate it.
    My WiFi Connect is perfect; all 3 bars. The iPad looks to have the new IOS 7.
    I decided to go forth suggestion of activating the iPad via iTunes, so I downloaded it onto my laptop, following all of the reccommended steps. Nothing happened. I clicked Help>Run Diagnostics, everything is fine and dandy except for one test result stating 'No Ipad, Ipod, etc. Dectected'.
    How am I to activate my iPad without the option of using WiFi, nor iTunes. Help!

    Make sure that the version of iTunes on your laptop is iTunes 11.1 or later. If not update iTunes.
    Try resetting the iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. Then try activating again.
    Also check to make sure your Wi-Fi network router is not running a firewall. That might interfere with activation. Once your phone is up and working you can turn the firewall back on. Also turn off any virus protection software on your computer during the activation process.

  • HT4623 when i try to update my iphone with itunes finished update and try to activate but i cannot activate my i phone after update the software

    when i try to update my iphone via itunes then after update my phone cannot activte how can i activate my iphone ?  and what is the wrong with that

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
    original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
    carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
    if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Where did you acquire this iPhone?
    What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?
    Unauthorized modification of iOS
