    when am trying to restore my iphone it says iphone cannot be activated because activation server cannot be reached what i need to do now?

    The servers are getting slammed. Bunch of people trying to download iOS7 at the same time.
    There is a chance activation servers might be down/slow for now. Just keep trying throughout the day. Some other forum users are experieincing similar things.
    You can also try the apple document for activation issues, but I'd assume its server issues. http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3424

  • HT4623 iphone cannot be activated

    after updating iOS 6.0 my iphone cannot be activated through itunes. anyone any idea?

    Just have to give it some time. The activation and verification servers are all slammed right now 'cause of all the people trying to update at the same time. Give it a couple hours (or overnight if you can wait) and it should sort itself out.

  • Activation server problem after installing IOS5

    I have a very specific problem:
    Last year in July 2010 my brother died, I got from his legacy his Iphone which was sold by T-Mobile. I requested T mobile to unlock (SIM) as I had a subscription of of KPN. Untill then everything worked okey.
    In September I made a switch to another provider Telfort, still then no problem my Iphone worked in order.
    Today I installed a new version of Itunes 10.5.0.042, Itunes asked to install also new software on my IPHONE. I don’t know if he made a back up of my Iphone.
    After doing so I had to configure my I phone. But now the Iphone gives me a message that my Iphone can’t be configured as the activation server is temporarily not available.
    By Using Itunes is also no option as itunes tries to connect to the IPHONE and itunes is stating that there is no SIM Card in the Iphone, of course rubbish as there is for sure a SIM card in my phone.

    I lost EVERYTHING...contacts, music, etc.....the music stayed in my itunes so I was able to re load it manually, but my contacts were also erased from the computer and the back ups too....iOS5 ****** me off

  • Cannot activate, Activation Server error

    I can logon to the Adobe site and have a valid Adobe ID and Password.  Previous version worked fine, but I cannot get past the Authoriztion Screen on Version 2.0.   Get the error message, "Activation Server error", "code : E_AUTH_NOT_READY".  Repeated attempts yeild the same problem.

    For the Error : E_auth_not_ready.
    Follow these steps,
    1. Launch Adobe Digital Editions
    2. Keeping ADE program active on your screen, Hold Ctrl+Shift+D keys (Windows), Cmd+Shift+D (Mac users).
         - you will get a prompt window to Erase Authorization (ADE 2.0) & Deauthorize (ADE 1.7.2)
         - Deauthorize ADE and Re-launch it.
    3. Navigate to Help > Authorize ADE (in ADE 2.0) & Library > Authorize ( in ADE 1.7.2, usually you will be prompted to authorize when you launch the program ) .

    Why my iphone cannot be repaired in an authorized service center because thay said it is purchased in US not in Oman?
    This service center MI Store in oman refused to fix my iphone due to ( he said) it was not purchased in oman. and the warranty only for regional warranty. Is it true that the warranty in iphone had this kind of set up? what i know iphone warranty is international warranty.
    could any body confirm this?
    Thanks
    No, the iPhone does not have an international warranty.  This is incorrect.  Where did you get that information?
    An iPhone purchased in the US is serviceable in the US, and sometimes Canada.  The warranty explicitly states that Apple reserves the right to limit service of the device to the country of origin/purchase.

  • Iphone cannot connect to server during restore process?

    I am trying to restore my iphone 4s (bought off a friend but reset to original settings) from an old iphone 3g back up. I've been following this process:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109
    and got up to step 4, but after I enter my icloud details (which are correct, I've triple checked!) and accepted the terms and conditions, the phone cant get passed this step as it "cannot connect to the server"? I currently have it attached to my mac book and there is full wifi.
    help!

    That message can be for a varitey of things, not limited to but including;
    Failure to connect between the carrier's activation server and the Apple activation server.
    Failure to connect between the Apple activation server and your internet source.
    Failure to connect between the internet source (cable) and the WiFi router.
    Failure to connect between the WiFi router and the device itself.
    You choice is to either troubleshoot or wait it out.

    Where was the original phone purchased from? What is the exact error you are receiving when trying to activate the device? Was the original phone possibly hacked to be used with another carrier before this one?

  • IPhone cannot be activated (Apple ID was changed)

    My Apple ID was used on several devices which some of them are sold thereafter and give them the password, i know. stupid, there was no activation lock problem by Apple ID at that time. Somebody activated Find my iPhone and change the Apple ID and Email, i have no idea what they are now. So other devices which has been upgraded are now stuck at activation. I recreated that Apple ID but still it can't be used for activation. Is there anything can be done?

    Hopefully its a previous account. Cheers for your help.
