HT201317 My photo stream on my iphone 5 will not activate

- any thoughts on what the problem could be?

Try turning off photo stream on your PC, then turn it back on without changing the default location.  Then take a new photo on one of your devices and see if it appears on your PC now.  (I've seen a number of posts indicating that changing the default location isn't working properly for them when using iCloud control panel version 3.)

  • Iphone 3gs will not activate after restore and update

    my sons iphone 3gs will not activate after restore and ios update.
    phone keeps saying no service but worked fine before restore and update any ideas ? thanks

    Sorry. The jailbreak is undoubtedly the root cause of your problem.
    It is not always possible to repair the damage done by jailbreaking.
    Try searching google for an answer, but be prepared to just buy a new phone.

  • VZW Iphone 4 Will not Activate

    I got a used iPhone 4 for Verizon Wireless and it will not activate on Itunes to get a imei to activate the phone.  Itunes keep saying "We are sorry we are unable to continue with your activation at this time, please try again later or call customer care"   When I try to restore I also get a error number 1.  Should I goto to the apple store or Verizon.  Who can help the best
    The person who sold it to me claimed it had a clean ESN and there are no issues.

    Error 1 can be an issue of security software interfering with the restore, so try it with your antivirus/antispyware software temporarily disabled. It can also indicate a hardware failure which would necessitate getting it serviced.

  • After downloading iOS7 my iPhone 5 will not activate

    After downloading iOS7 my iPhone 5 will not activate

    All of Apple's servers...including the activation servers are pretty much flooded with users like you doing the same thing. Be patient and keep at it...or wait till the traffic to them has decreased and then try again. Coming back to it tomorrow  (if that's a viable option for you) will likely increase your chances of not having issues.

  • HT201317 the photo stream on my iphone has 1000 pics - yet it only 106 have pushed to my pc. what am i doing wrong?

    I have 1000 photos in my photo stream on my ipad2 and I downloaded the control panel to my pc. I set up photo stream for auto download (push) and only 106 have pushed.  I tried restarting the pc, signing out and back in of control panel, resetting my internet explorer and connect/reconnect network.  Still, no new photos pushed.  How can I possibly get all the photos off my ipad2?  I have run out of icloud storage and it won't backup . . .  Thank You for any assistance.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there (subject to a 1,000 photo limit) until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
    The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

  • HT1689 HOW CAN I DELETE PHOTOS FROM "MY PHOTO STREAM" ON MY IPHONE 5.PLS NOTE PHOTOS HAVE BEEN LOADED FROM  MY PHOTO STREAM.

    Hello EFSTATHIOU,
    Congratulations on your new iPhone 5s!  It sounds like you are trying to delete photos from My Photo Stream to save room on iCloud. 
    The photos in My Photos do not count toward your iCloud storage: 
    Does My Photo Stream use my iCloud storage?
    No. Photos uploaded to My Photo Stream do not count against your iCloud storage.

    If you would still like to delete the photos from My Photo Stream, use the steps below.  I understand you are not seeing the trash can icon.  You may need to tap on the picture one more time to see it, or you can delete multiple pictures by tapping Select when viewing the My Photo Stream album:
    On an iOS 7 device
    In the Photos app, tap Albums, then tap My Photo Stream.
    Do either of the following:
    Tap a photo.
    Tap Select, then tap one or more photos.
    Tap , then tap Delete Photo or Delete x Photos.

    If you are still not seeing the option, I recommend restarting your iPhone and trying again, and then trying a reset if the issue persists.
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

  • My iPhone 3GS will not activate following update to iOS 6.0.1

    Hi guys,
    My mate has just been given a new iPhone 3GS, which is locked to the Vodafone network. He has bought a $2 Vodafone SIM to ensure a smooth transition.
    The issue we are having is that following an update of the iPhone to iOS 6, the iPhone would reach a screen where the following error message appears:
    "Your iPhone could not be actived because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes. If the problem persists, contact Apple Support at apple.com/support"
    I plugged in the phone to iTunes, and received the following error message
    "We are unable to continue with your activation at this time. Please try again later, or contact customer care."
    I contacted the carrier, Vodafone, and was sent through various stages of the support team who confirmed what I though: I have to restore the iPhone. I completed the restore, and even upgraded the iPhone to iOS 6.0.1 in the process.
    Upon the iPhone restoring itself, the exact same problem reoccurred. My mate is pretty confident that the iPhone has not been jailbroken, so I am seeking the support of someone here in Apple who may have some idea.
    Can anybody please offer their assistance regarding this issue? From what I've read of the forums, it would appear that this is not an uncommon occurence, so hopefully somebody knows what the issue is.
    Looking forward to hearing a response.
    Kris.

    LOL! - you poor bugger, Ognyan!
    I'm starting to serihously think this phone has been jailbroken... I've got a senior technical support advisor at Apple who is working on the case. He has gone through everything he can possibly think of, but won't take "no" for an answer.
    At the moment, he has logged everything with the Engineering Department, who is going to look into it further using the IMEI number and see what they come up with. If worse comes to worse, Apple will apparently replace the phone for a fee. The problem is that it is 800+ days out of warranty...
    Anyway, we'll see how we go. If anybody has got any ideas about this, please continue to provide answers. I appreciate all responses

  • Factory-unlocked iPhone 4 will not activate

    Hello,
    I bought iPhone 4 (Factory-unlocked) from Australia and brought back to Japan.
    I tried to activate the phone first time and it asks me to insert SIM.
    So I inserted the trimmed SIM (Japanese). But the iTunes says "The SIM card inserted is not supported."
    However, the trimmed SIM with proper adopter works fine with Japanese phone.
    I tried this with many other SIM in Japan but failed to activate iPhone 4.
    I also called up Apple in Australia and gave them the IMEI number to confirm the phone.
    They confirmed that the phone is proper and factory-unlocked one from Apple.
    I also bought the so-called "Activation SIM" and tried activation with this SIM.
    This time, it let me sync with my iTunes successfully but cannot get any cellphone signal obviously.
    Now, I can see menu and contents on the phone but it keeps shows "Waiting for activation".
    So I changed the SIM to Japanese SIM but again, it does not activate nor sync to iTunes.
    Could someone help?
    Do I need Australian SIM?
    Can I activate with Australian SIM (that supports roaming in Japan) in Japan ?

    Hi I am too living in Japan and bought an iPhone 4 back from Australia in September. I had activated it using a Jailbreak app, activation successful.
    Now the problem, you are NOT able to use an iPhone in Japan that is not officially documented from Softbank. This means that Softbank has every IMEI number of each iPhone to be used in their system. When roaming, in Japan let’s say with an AT&T iPhone from the USA, this will work, because the system recognizes that it is a foreign number in the system and then applies the roaming charges to your Home Counties account. I had to go and pay an RF test registration fee to have my iPhone IMEI number placed on a list that Softbank accesses when registering, without the registration fee from the RF test certification company, the number is NOT added to the list… Softbank will then tell you it is NOT allowed to be used in Japan. This cost me more then paying 6 months of subscription and services if I had just opened a new account and contract with Softbank for a new Japanese iPhone 4.
