  • HT4993 Why does my iphone say activation error

    Why does my iphone say activation error

    Because you are running an unauthorized version of the beat software for iOS 7. Or you are a legitimate developer and there is an issue with your last update. You will need to go to the developers section to fix it if that is the case.
    If you are not a developer contact the developer who got the beta for you.

  • HT4623 Why does my iphone say "Activation Error" during the updating process?

    after updating my iphone, the process is like asking the language, then the country, and then the wifi right? after i connected to the wifi, i pressed "next" then it says "Activating your Iphone" then suddenly it says "Activation Error". what does this mean? can i just restore the previous version of this iphone again?

    You cannot install the previous version. "Activaton error" usually means that the phone was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it from the carrier it was locked to. It is now locked again to that carrier.

    Perhaps the account information is incorrect. Make sure that you are using the proper App store credentials.
    If you forgot your password, you can easily recover or reset it using iForgot. For security reasons, Apple cannot reset your password for you. To protect yourself against unauthorized purchases to your credit card, do not give out your password to anyone.
    NOTE: If you attempt to sign in to the Apple Online Store numerous times with the wrong password, you will see the following error message: “This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons." To reset your account, use iForgot.

    Why does my iPhone 4S hang up when updating apps from the update screen?

    I'm going to guess you have the original iPad, which means iOS7 isn't available for your device. 5.1.1 is the last update applied to the original iPad.

  • Unable to activate my iphone 3GS because activation server is unavailable?

    Hi i just tried to upgrade my 3GS to iOS 5 and after it restarted and I went through all the steps to activate my iphone. But it could not be activated because the servier is temporarily unavailable. I tried taking out the sim card and put it back again, i tried to restart my iphone and i tried everything and it still didn't work.

    I think theres something about the iphone  3gs that does not work with the update because just today the same thing happened to me
