HT1386 I can't use my iphone after upgrading to IOS5

Can someone help?  I can't use my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios5.

I have iphone 3 GS.  I upgraded the software to ios 5 and the phone is now can't be accessed.  All I can see is the Gray screen says Iphone.  It ask me to set it up, choose your country, wifi, etc.  when I did that, it always stop at the page where it says "Apple activation server is down, please try it again".  Tried so many times but the same messages kept showing up.  Connect it to Itunes, itunes said there is no sim card installed.  I went to AT&T to get the new simcard and it still saying the same thing.  don't know what's wrong with it.

  • Why i can't charge my iphone after upgraded to ios7.0.2?Battery losing quickly even it seems to be charging

    My phone's battery seems not to rise even I am charging it.
    And battery loses quickly after upgrading to ios7.0.2
    how can this problem be solved?

    Hey yly_gatsby,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues charging your iPhone. The following article may help to resolve your issue:

    Battery does not charge
    1. Verify that the outlet being used is working.
    2. Try another USB power adapter if available.
    3. If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
    4. Try another USB cable if available.
    Thanks,

  • Can't use Airport Express after upgrading to Leopard

    I use Airport Express for wireless printing and AirTunes via powered speakers/hifi. It was working very reliably until I upgraded to Leopard. Now, I am unable to use Airport Express. I get the blinking orange light, but when I scan with Airport Utility, Airport Express is not detected. Manual setup is grayed out, so I can't set it up at all. I am using Airport Utility Version 5.2.2 (522.3), and there does not seem to be any updates or patches to apply at the moment. I have tried on my iMac G5 and MacBook, with the same result on both computers.
    I am also reading that many others are having problems with Airport Express after upgrading to Leopard, perhaps not with my specific hardware configuration, but this is very disappointing.
    I am open to suggestions to try a few things to get it working, so any help is appreciated.

    From the Mail menu, select "Preferences". Hit the Accounts tab. Select the Account. Under Account Information, reapply the user name and password.
    Check with the provider if the account needs authentication. This is in the Advanced tab. Usually just a repeat of user name and password.

  • Satellite Pro A200-16N: Can I use Recovery CD after upgrade to Vista

    Hii!
    Im thinking of upgrading to windows vista on my Satellite Pro A200-16N, and i've ran the windows vista upgrade checker from the microsoft website and it says my system will support windows vista so im ok on that.
    The problem is, if my laptop were to break or something like that at some point, will my recovery CD's that was supplied from toshiba still work on the laptop with windows vista?
    Will they return the laptop to windows xp or since my laptop has a different operating system will they not work?
    Also...
    Whats the deal with BIOS?:S
    I dont understand!
    If i were to upgrade to windows vista should i update my BIOS before or after upgrading to vista?
    As i have to download the new drivers before upgrading yes?
    Thanks!

    Of course the Recovery CD will work.
    The Recovery CD will set always the notebook back to the factory settings. This means that the whole HDD will be formatted and the Toshiba image will be installed.
    > Whats the deal with BIOS? I dont understand!
    > If i were to upgrade to windows vista should i update my BIOS before or after upgrading to vista?
    In my knowledge this notebook was already delivered with Vista therefore you dont need to update the BIOS if you want to install Vista again.
    Some A200 Satellite series needs a BIOS update if you want to use the XP.
    In such case its advisable to update the BIOS to XP version firstly and then to install X OS.
    Best regards

  • Can't add/edit contact after upgrade to IOS5 - HELP!

    After upgrading to ios 5, I can't add or edit the contact. The buttons are gone! How to get them back? I tried numerous restart also no use.

    I was having issues with Calendar after updating to iOS 5.0.1 also.  I finally was able to get Calendar functioning again by turning it OFF within Settings > iCloud.  This action keeps all my calendars on my iPod. I also reverted to backing up my iPod Touch to my computer within iTunes, then restoring, and re-syncing after I made the changes.  Now, I am able to add, edit, and delete events in my calendar just as I was able to do before updating to iOS 5.0.1.  Restoring my iPod Touch only worked temporarily for me (before I change the settings), as the problem returned the very next time I attempted to add an event.  This fix probably will not allow syncing with other Apple devices through iCloud, but it is less drastic than deleting my iCloud account.

  • How can i retrieve my facetime after upgrading to ios5

    Help me to retrieve my facetime after upgrading my  iphone to ios5

    Your photos should be backed up on your computer's hard drive, and that hard drive should be backed up to another medium. If you have a camera, you don't keep all your photos in it, do you?

  • Use old iPhone after upgrade?

    I bought a new iPhone and transferred my data as described here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109, and new iPhone is working great. Is it necessary to erase all data on the old iPhone? Can I continue to use the old iPhone as an iPod Touch, keeping all my old apps and music on it? What will happen next time I sync it to iTunes? Will there be any mix up between the two phones?

    "Does this mean that when I buy an app on one device that it will also be available on the other one after syncing both of them to iTunes?"
    Yes, as long as they sync using your iTunes account, you can d/l apps to many iPhone/Tounch devices.

  • Using 3G iphones after upgrading to the iPhone4

    I have upgraded the family to the iPhone4,
    I now have three 3G iP's, in boxes.
    Can the 3G be used as ipods and mail account over the wifi. since the Sim cards have been deactivated.
    is it safe to resell the 3g after you reset the iphone. as fare as I can tell none of our personal info is on the phone. Is there some hidden file that might have our data on it.
    Message was edited by: MajorMatt

    You can use a no longer activated iPhone as an iPod Touch, but in order to install a firmware update on a no longer activated iPhone or restore a no longer activated iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed, the no longer activated SIM card must be inserted in the iPhone - the SIM card that was used with the iPhone when it was activated.
    Performing an erase all contents and settings reset option on an iPhone is a secure erase. When selling an iPhone, remove the SIM card since the buyer will need to use a different SIM card when activating the iPhone.

  • HT201210 I can't activate my Iphone after upgrading to ios 6 why ?

    Just upgrading my Cpo iPhone 4 White 8Gb Kit to ios 6 but it won't reactivation... Sprint say it's apple !

    This is because your phone was previously jailbroken.
    You will never get the phone to activate.

  • Photos not being shown on my iphone after upgrading to IOS5

    Hi there,
    I have just upgraded my IOS to IOS5 and upon doing that i can see that I am not able to open up my photos.
    or in other words it is showing empty and saying "You can take photos and videos using camera, sync photos and videos onto your iPhone using iTunes"
    Please can somebody help me out. I have had some very good photograph in it.
    Thanks

    Before you upgrade the iPhone, you are asked to make a backup. During the upgrade you are asked if you want to restore from your backup. I guess that didn't happen?
    iTunes does not store your photos; it syncs them. You should have been transferring your photos fom the iPhone to your photo application. They should be there.
    If not, your only chance is to restore from backup, if you have a recentone, as noted above.

  • After upgrading to iOS5 - phone ear speaker is NOT working

    Well, my excitement from upgrading to the new iOS5 on my iPhone 4 gave way to frustration when I found out that the phone's built-in ear speaker is no longer working. Tried everything from a hard reset, to re-syncing with iTunes, playing around with every setting I could find, and a few "fixes" I found online that were absolutely useless and did nothing.
    This only appears to happen when making or receiving phone calls (and listening to voice mail) - when I select speaker, all audio plays normally, but clicking back over to headset, and nothing. Earbuds also work okay. 
    Prior to installing iOS5 this problem did not exist in the least.
    Apple - I am going to ASSUME you properly beta tested this OS on ALL compatible devices prior to its release, did you not? Apparently (from my web searching) I am not the only person suffering this malfunction with their iPhone after upgrading to iOS5.
    Is there anyone out there that has figured out a way to fix this, or am I just screwed? I don't know how to revert back to iOS 4.3.3 if that's even possible at this point.  This is a phone I use for work, and I need to have this functioning properly.
    Please help. Anyone... thank you. 

    I'm having exactly the same problem with my iPhone 4. Since the upgrade to IOS5, I've noticed I can no longer hear calls through the ear-piece, though using the speaker phone option works fine.
    I took my phone to the  Apple Store in Sydney and they advised that the problem was related to my sim card & that I should contact my telco for a replacement. I seriously didn't believe the Apple rep when she said this, but politely said thanks, went home and tried it out by swapping my sim with my wife's.
    Guess what... it didn't make the slightest difference.
    My wife has an iPhone 4 still running IOS4 and the ear-piece works fine. I even put my sim card into her phone and it worked fine as well. So the issue is definitely not related to the sim card.
    It sounds like a common issue affecting a lot of iPhone 4 users that have upgraded to IOS5. I'm surprised Apple hasn't acknowledged this and have a patch available to correct (it doesn't sound like a hardware issue).
    Anyway, looks like a trip back to the Apple store for more great suggestions.

    Every time I switch on the iPhone, the iTunes icon is displayed together with a USB icon and Emergency call message appears on the screen in many languages. When I touch the i symbol I get the following information IMEI: **** AND ICCID: ****
    However, the iphone is visible in the Devices directory in iTunes. I changed my SIM card but still can not be recognized by the iPhone.
