How can i activate my iphone when its erased and i cannot contact its previous owner?
I Can't contact the previous owner of my iPhone, and my iPhone is erased. How would I activate my iphone?
You can't, and Apple won't unlock it for you; the activation lock is an anti-theft measure. You may be able to get a refund.

I just got a new iphone 4 because my old one did work, when i tried activating the new one it give me problems and wont let me do anything on the phone. When i plug it into itunes i get a message there is no sim card installed in this device. Is there anyway i can restore the phone or anything to get it working?

i bought a secondhand iphone 4s.when i reset all content,i cant activate my iphone 4s.i cant find the previous owner because i didnt save his number.how can i activate my iphone?im so messed out.
If you mean activating it as far as using it on your phone plan, then you're going to have to go to your cell provider and have them do that for you and add the device to your current plan. Otherwise without activating it, the most your iPhone will be, is a thick iPod. Of course with wifi, you could still send iMessages, but that's the extent without adding it to a cell plan.

how can i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios6? it could not activate....
If your phone was previously hacked to unlock it, when you updated the hack was removed and it's re-locked to the original carrier. The phone will now activate and operate only with that original carrier.

HT1695 how do i activate my iphone 4 after upgrading to ioS 5.1
how do i activate my iphone 4 after upgrading to ioS 5.1
I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, but I'll try to answer! You can either connect to iTunes and set up and activate there, or you can also use the setup assistant to set up your iPhone. As far as carrier activation, you'll have to follow the protocol that your carrier uses. Either switch SIM card, or call the number they use to allow device activation. Is that what you were wanting to know?

How do i restore my iphone when it has been disabled and cannot be restored through itunes because of the error message that says "The iphone software update server could not be contacted
Have you jailbroken this device? This will make the iPhone not talk to the Software Update Server (that signs and accepts software updates) please refer to the following link? Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"
The iPhone will talk to the software update servers, just need to change the host files, it's a simple process, sorry if you were confused about the wording in to top? -
how will i activate my iphone?and keep on asking link to an apple id that was used to set up this iphone
You need to enter the id, and the password, of the account that the phone is linked to.
Did you buy the phone new or used ? If you bought the phone used and it's still linked to the previous owner's account then you will have to contact the previous owner and ask him/her to remove the phone from their account : Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account - Apple Support.
If you bought the phone new and it's your account then enter the id and password that you were using in Settings > iCloud on it -

HT4946 how do i unlock my iPhone when its locked in the itune plug in mode?
how do I unlock my iPhone when it is in the itune locked mode for updates, i powered out when i was updating
Unfortunately once the iPhone is in that mode the best practice is to just restore the whole iPhone via iTunes.
The iPhone is in recovery mode. So to get it out of recovery mode and restore through iTunes is all you got to do.
Hope this helps -
i have an iphone 5 , i restored it but now it stuck on the activation and required an icloud id and password to begin, but i dont know about id i purchased it from saudi arabia and now i am in pakistan. how can i activate this iphone 5????
please help!!!!!!!!!Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.
