Help! Can't activate my iphone 4
Hello, i live in Russia, and iPhone 4 here costs about 1100 dollars (sim free), so i had no other choice but to go to Apple Store in Paris (i just happened to have a vaccation there) and buy two iPhones 4 there - one for my friend, one - for my stepfather. I bought two SIM FREE iPhones 4 - 629 euros per each. Now that i came back to Moscow i found out that one of them is sim LOCK, because they so happened to make a mistake and sell me the wrong one for the same price of sim free. I can't activate one of them because it requires French sim card, so i called iPhone Support online service - but they couldn't really help me.
Please, anyone, help me or advice smth to do, because i'm 17 and neither me nor my stepdad is good at that kind of stuff!!
Is there ANY possibility that i could unlock this iPhone??
Can i buy the french sim card to activate the iPhone and then change back to a russian one??
And how can i contact the Apple Support via e-mail??
Thanks in advance, smoochy
напишите, пожалуйста, удалось ли вам решить проблему? у меня даже не получается дозвониться до магазина ов франции, на общий телефон поддержки во франции тоже... звоню непосредственно в магазин прослушиваю информацию, нажимаю разные варианты меню либо слуша опять информацию, либо если выбираю техподдержку меня сбрасывает.. общий тел поддержки занят звоню с сотового говорят что телефон недоступен

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it. -

I've quoted some helpful highlights for you:
iPhone: Troubleshooting activation issues
Symptoms
Your iPhone may display one of the following messages when you attempt to activate it:
"Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable."
"The iPhone is not recognized and cannot be activated for service."
"iTunes was unable to verify your device."
Resolution
Perform the following steps if you receive one of the messages above:
Restart the iPhone.
Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
Try connecting to Wi-Fi if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
Restore the iPhone.
If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore.
If you're still experiencing issues, contact your carrier to check for any network or account issues that could cause this issue.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Why i Can't activate my iphone just because idont own the apple id i dont ever know how the email is even a password that make no sens apple please help me i will tell you my model my FCC ID , IC and IME
If the phone was previously owned and is locked to that owner's Apple ID the ONLY way you can activate it is to get that person to release Activation Lock. This is an antitheft feature of the phone; stolen phones are useless.
If you purchased the phone new you created the Apple ID, and will have to remember it. If it is only the password you have forgotten go to https://iforgot.apple.com -
Dear Apple Support,
I bought Iphone 4S from Poland and I can not activate my Iphone in Astana, Kazakhstan and can not use my Iphone in Astana.
Please, Can you help me?
Best Regards,
Danalyk ZhakeyThis is not Apple support. It is a user to user forum.
It would seem that you bought a phone that is locked to a carrier in Poland. You would either need to contact this carrier to discuss unlocking, or return or sell the phone and buy an unlocked one. -

What me do?! =((((
Help me!!!
AT&T are unlock my phone, official!!!1) Check your iTunes account.
2) you have to be at your computer. Apple is very smart, the place you put your I'd or password is not near data base.
3) make sure your ID and Password is correct. When type on the phone, if you don't check you might press the wrong key some time cases where people have long Neil.
4) go to apple website n reset the I'd or password. -
