HT201412 Unable to activate my Ipad

Unable to activate my ipad.
I tried to restore my ipad via itunes but still unable to activate.
The error message i get via Itues is:
"We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time.
Please try again later, or contact customer care."
Can you pleas help?

When I reset my Ipad to scrub everything to hopefully resolve a Facebook issue I was encountering.
I was unable to activate my Ipad ( install and start up from scratch.) and I received the error message to say my ipad was unable to be activated because the activation server is temporary unavailable.

  • Unable to activate new ipad

    I recently bought the new iPad.  Tried to activate and keep getting the message "your iPad could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached"

    Hello Denks69,
    Congratulations on your new iPad!  I recommend following the steps below when getting an error that your iPad cannot be activated (the steps refer to an iPhone, but are still applicable to the iPad):
    Restart the iPhone.
    Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
    Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
    Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
    Restore the iPhone.

  • I am unable to activate my iPad 1st gen after restoring it.

    Keep getting message the activation server is unavailable.  Have tired via iTunes and via WiFi.  Have been trying for hours.
    The iPad have been rebooting every few minutes, which is why I was restoring it to factory settings. The restore process appears to go fine up to the point where it needs to be activated.

I know the apple id although i do not remember ever using it but i cannot remember the password. I have tried everything from reserting my password to trying different passwords but it asks me for a custom question that i dont remember creating.

  • I am unable to activate the sim in my ipad air 5th generation can you suggest how i can activate

    i brought ipad air cellular model and inserted nano sim card but i am unable to dial number because there is no display of numarical pad to dial. But on left side i am getting the netwaork name DU with 5round ponits. Can you suggest it is required any software to activate.

    The ipad is not a cellular phone and does not make phone calls without third party apps that convert data to cellular.
    The intent of the cellular sim in the ipad is for data usage, such as browsing or app connections, not cellular phone calls.

  • I have an iPad 2 and I am unable to activate my face time account. Despite having the correct ID and password. Any suggestions?

    I have an iPad 2 and I am unable to activate my face time account. Despite having the correct ID and password. Any suggestions?

    Clear Safari, close Safari and reboot the iPad. Then try again.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the Safari icon. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
