    Thanks for the quick response. No, I did not get any error messages or any terms-of-usage screen. The employee I told my problem to was not computer savvy either. She just suggested I move to different spots w/in the library to see if that would make a difference. It didn't. When I connected to the library WiFi it did change the Verizon 3G that is usually in the upper left corner to iPad with two to three emanating arcs. I may have to go to the library in the next town. I was able to connect to theirs in the past when I had to download something greater than 20 MB. Unless I really want it, I will probably not even try to download something more than 20 MB due to the hassle. Yeah, I may have been better off getting a normal desktop or laptop and getting WiFi at home. To do that now would mean having my iPad 2 and a desktop computer, which I feel is extravagant. (I know there are a lot of big spenders out there who got the iPad as additional gadget for fun. This is a rich country.) A Verizon rep told me I couldn't set up a WiFi router at home just using an iPad. So it seems like a person who just uses 3G is limited to surfing the net (not even much YouTube because it eats a lot of data) and using email. I read about an app that helps print wirelessly using 3G, but a reviewer said you had to be an engineer to get it done right. BTW, I like the Steelers. I'm old enough to remember Franco Harris and that blond guy whose name escapes me back in the '70s. Since I live in North Jersey I feel I have to support the Giants. But I know football about as well as computers.

  • I purchased an unlocked iPhone4 last month. Everything was fine till yesterday. Today morning when I tried to check mail, i suddenly got an error message saying " Could not activate cellular data network: you are not subscribed to a cellular data service"

    I purchased an unlocked iPhone4 last month. Everything was fine till yesterday. Today morning when I tried to check mail, i suddenly got an error message saying " Could not activate cellular data network: you are not subscribed to a cellular data service", when I checked on my network settings i was not able to find the cellular data network tab ( where we use to input APN manually). i even tried to restore my iPhone to its factory settings, Still it remains the same. i cant able to connect to Internet using cellular data. help me...Plz..

    Where did you purchase it from?  There are lots of iPhones sold as "unlocked" which are carrier locked phones that were hacked and are not officially unlocked.  These phones are subject to re-locking to the original carrier, particularly when updated.

  • IPAD SAYS "COULD NOT ACTIVATE CELLULAR DATA NETWORK"

    OK SO THE PROBLEM STARTED JUST YESTERDAY, I OPENED MY IPAD AND CELLULAR DATA AND TRIED TO OPEN A PAGE IN SAFARI WHEN A MESSAGE PROMPTED SAYING THAT "COULD NOT ACTIVATE CELLULAR DATA". IT WAS WORKING FINE JUST A FEW DAYS AGO.
    SO FAR I HAVE VISITED NUMEROUS THREADS AND I HAVE DONE THE FOLLOWING
    1. RESET NETWORK SETTINGS
    2. APN SETTINGS
    3. CLEARED SAFARI COKIES AND DATA AND POWER OFF MY IPAD FOR HOURS AND STARTED AGAIN
    4. TURN AIRPLANE MODE ON AND OFF
    EACH OF THE ABOVE METHODS WERE OF NO USE
    HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED

    Does anything else work? Like email, app store?
    Is there a signal in the area?
    Has your contract finished?

  • My iphone 4s keeps saying "Could not activate cellular data network"

    I have tried resetting the network and calling the *228 and it still isn't working.  I have not seen any recent posts where this was resolved. 

    I have had 4 iPhone 4S 3G on Verizon. I have never been able to activate by dialing *228. I could not activate via iCloud or iTunes, either. I went to the apple store. They had to do it. I could not set up a Yahoo email account yesterday on the latest device swapped. The Apple Store rep had to look up a workaround online. It's a CLOWN SHOW!

  • Why does my phone keep saying could not activate cellular data network?

    I can't seem to browse without wi-fi!

    While both methods are simple, so to speak, we think you must start by trying out the first method. This is just resetting the iPhone’s data networks so that it auto-configures to suit the changes in the iPhone cellular data network availability.
    Open the “Settings” of your iPhone
    Go to the “General” Settings by tapping on General
    Scroll down to bottom and tap on Reset. You’ll find a reset button there – tap on Reset Network Settings
    restart the phone...
    Method 2:
    You’ll need a working internet connection though. So among the things you’ll need, WiFi is necessary. Make sure your iPhone is jailbroken or unlocked (steps can be found in a lot of resources from the web). Also, make sure you have the APN settings for your carrier ready with you.
    Connect your Apple iPhone 4 to the Wi-Fi network so you have internet active on your iPhone
    Now, open up Safari on your iPhone and go to unlockit.co.nz
    Click on Continue which takes you to the Custom APN generator
    Click / Tap on Custom APN
    Enter the APN details asked for
    Once done with that, click on Create Profile
    Save the profile and restart your iPhone

  • Could not activate cellular data network att 3g after upgrading form 5.1.1 to 6.1

    Hello im deployed in Afghanistan.  I brought over my 64gb ipadw att over here.  I got a new sim for it day one.  It's work flawlessly for 2 months.  Last night I upgraded from 5.1.1. to 6.1 and when it woke back up BOOM! I have all the bars along w/ the "E" Edge network icon but no internet.  Says could not activate cellular data network.  When I put my att sim card in my ipad works perfectly fine racking up ridiculous out of the country roaming fees.  Why did my hodgi sim card stop working?

    I am having similar problems.
    My network settings are correct and I can communicate both over 3G and WiFi.
    However, every few minutes the connection is being dropped. A few seconds later it's back again. I can see this in an application I am developing. It's rather frustrating...
    In the console I see this message prior to the connection being lost and rebuilt:
    "Mon Sep 20 09:44:58 PeterVs-iPhone-3GS configd[23] <Notice>: network configuration changed."
    I have not changed anything to the configuration. What's even more strange is that I ONLY have 3G at this moment, i.e. WiFi is disabled.
    What is changing the network configuration? And why does it mean that the current network connection needs to be torn down and rebuilt? After the network is back, there is no difference than before. So it gets torn down and rebuilt for no apparent reason.
    I have logged a bug with Apple over a week ago, but haven't had any reply from them yet. I need more information about what is happening, and how I can prevent it. I'm not very happy having to grope in the dark, having to make guesses because somebody decided that he knows what's best for me.
    This is happening on multiple iPhones with multiple different OS-es. So I am guessing it is related to my carrier (Vodafone). But I can't verify it because I'm not getting the tools from Apple.

  • Could not activate cellular data network fix

    Im on an iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1.2 with StraightTalk and any time I attempt to connect to the internet with 3G it say "Could not activate cellular data network. You Are Not Subscibed." I need a fix for it! Please help!

    This is not an uncommon problem apparently.
    Did you try dialing *22890?
    How did you activate your iPhone (iTunes, iCloud, WalMart kiosk)?
    Some on the StraightTalk forums report success by visiting a WalMart which is equipped with an activation kiosk and asking a qualified WalMart empolyee to activate the phone (be sure and back up any critical data before you do that since they will reset the phone).
    Also, are you in the home area code of your phone? My iPhone 5 was set to not allow data roaming outside of my home network.  I am not sure if that means my area code or the StraightTalk network.  Either way, you can go to Settings>Cellular>Roaming and check to see if data roaming is turned on.  Be careful if you roam a lot, though as you might incur additional data charges.
    Hope this helps.

  • My iPad 2 won't connect 3G keeps saying cann not activate cellular data network?

    My iPad 2 keeps saying could not activate cellular data network. Does anyone know how I can get it to connect to 3G? I have tried resetting and turning wifi off. Any suggestions?

    I have had 4 iPhone 4S 3G on Verizon. I have never been able to activate by dialing *228. I could not activate via iCloud or iTunes, either. I went to the apple store. They had to do it.

  • "Could not activate cellular data network" dialog, tried nearly everything, please help!

    I have had my iPad 3 since it came out. The 4G has had occasional issues, but I was always able to connect. Now out of the blue, after working perfectly well yesterday, it suddenly says "Could not activate cellular data network" when I try to go to the browser. The signal looks strong with Verizon LTE on top of the screen. I can also go through the Verizon dialog to see my account and how much data I have used so far, so in some way I am clearly connected to the cellular network. I have tried resetting the network settings, then re-provisioned, rebooted and still have the same problem in every detail. If anyone has any ideas on what else to try short of clearing the machine back to factory settings, please let me know.

    Verizon is having trouble. I'm trying to activate my phone and they said they were having trouble activating the SIM cards. They said they would call me back when they resolved the issue. It's been about 40 minutes now and I haven't heard from them and I can't do anything on my old phone because everything is tied up due to the pending order.

  • Could not activate cellular data network on Verizon

    I have an iPhone 4 on the verizon network. Whenever I try to get online or check my email's or anything when I don't have wifi it says Could not activate cellular data network. I have called Verizon and they kept me on the phone for 2 hours and had no solution. I have reset the phone/network and have restored it and nothing has changed. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    I'm having the same problems.  No luck with network resets, *228/2, data roaming etc.  Good Verizon signal but no connection to 3g.  I called Verizon and they suggested replacing the phone.  The tech said he had seen a few iphone 4S with this problems so far.  Now I don't know whether to replace it through Apple or Verizon since I was able to add Applecare+ to this phone.

  • Could not activate cellular data network error

    i bought ipad 2 few days back. while i'm trying to connect to 3G i'm getting the pop up saying "could not activate cellular data network".. can anyone help?

    If you have the sim version (AT&T in the US), did you purchase a sim card from your carrier, insert it and buy data?  If you have CDMA version (Verizon in the US), have you contacted your carrier to set up a data plan?

  • "Could not activate cellular data network" multiple times a day

    Several times a day (up to 10 times/day) my phone says "Could not activate cellular data network" and this problem has been going on for about 2 weeks. Does anyone know how to help or troubleshoot it?

    I was having the same problem with my factory unlocked phone. Try this it worked for me:
    In Settings go to GENERAL-->NETWORK--> and turn off ENABLE 3G. I did this a week ago and I have not had an issue with dropped data since. Why does this work? I don't know.
    BE AWARE THAT THE NEW 5.1.1 OS BY DEFAULT TURNS ON 3G EVERYTIME YOU RESTART YOUR PHONE, EVEN IF YOU TURN IT OFF MANUALY

  • I am getting an error message "could not activate cellular data network" with my iPhone when there is no wifi

    I am getting an error message with my iPhone whenever I try to access my data with no wifi.  It says "could not activate cellular data network".  This just started today and has never happened before.  Did I change a setting or something?

    Hello, romac12. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I have experienced this issue before.  If there have been any changes to your cellular account such as adding a line, plan change or upgrade, more than likely there is a provisioning issue on the carrier end.  However, I would recommend going through the troubleshooting steps in the article below.  If the issue persists, see step 9.
