Possible causes:
1. Your antivirus is blocking access to gs.apple.com.
2. Your phone is jailbroken.
3. Your computer has been used at some time in the past to jaibreak some iOS device (not necessarily the phone with the problem), and its network database was corrupted by the hacking software that was used.
4. Apple's activation servers are down (very rare, and never for more than an hour or so).
For 1. try disabling your antivirus.
For 2. & 3. you need to go somewhere other than an apple forum for help. Although you can try deleting lines containing gs.apple.com from your "hosts" file on your computer.

thank you very much ...but can not be unlocked
If the phone was NOT unlocked, it can't work or be activated with any other carrier than AT&T. It CAN'T be used with Tigo or Movistar.
Your post makes very little sense. Maybe you can get some help with English. -

If you don't have a SIM card in the phone, you must put one in. It's required for activation.
If you do, then your phone was probably hacked to unlock it from the original carrier. Contact them and see if they will unlock it. If they will not do so, then you can't use that phone. -
I tried to restore, update and back up my ipod touch. once it said it was successful i clicked on the label of my ipod in itunes and it had written, "we're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time." now whenever i click on the label it just says that and on my ipod it tells me to plug into itunes when it already is. i didnt update restore or back it up with the latest version, so i downloaded the latest version, how do i start the process again so my ipod works!! help this is gay !!
Hmm, well... iTunes trys to activate your iPod using the Apple server to make sure you have bought it legit.
Two things come into my mind:
1) Your iTunes can't access the internet.
2) Apples activation servers are down.
That's just my cents, maybe anyone else has an idea. -

when i try to activate itunes on my iphone it continues to say "We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time." and now my phone has stuck. what happened?
Hello mzpartia,
I found an article from Apple that specifically outlines how to try and troubleshoot this issue. It's called iPhone: Troubleshooting activation issues found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3424.
Resolution
Perform the following steps if you receive one of the messages above:
Restart the iPhone.
Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
Try connecting to Wi-Fi 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.
If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Applefor assistance.
Take care,

I can't sync music to my iphone. It just says "We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time."
I am in exactly the same problem here as this person. Exactly the same problem.
No, it was not jailbroken. And now because it's in this loop, there's no ability to restore and such on itunes as the only option now is ever 'eject'. -
I have ipad 2
Win I tray to upgrade to iso6 it gave me this massage after finish
we're sorry we are unable to continue with your activation ay this time
customer care
so what I can doIf you don't know exactly where it came from, then odds are you have a hacked, gray market phone.
Call AppleCare and give them the serial number. They should be able to tell you if it's carrier locked in their database. If it is, the only hope of it ever working again would be to get the original carrier to authorize unlocking it. If they won't, it's a brick. Even if they do, there's a chance it may never activate properly again because of the hack. -
Now update ios 6.1 through itunes, but it is not activating
We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time.This frequently occurs when the phone has been hacked or jailbroken. Was your phone jailbroken before trying to update? If so you'll have to go elsewhere for assistance because the terms of Use for this forum prohibit discussing support for jailbroken phones.
