HT4623 having issues with activating my iPhone 3gs after upgrading to ios6. Tried activating via itunes but no respite " says No sim inserted". pls help.

Guys, I just upgraded my iphone 3gs to ios6, it took 2 hours get it installed. However asfter installing there are issues with activating it.
Its getting failed every time..."says the activation server is temporarily unavailable".
Tried activating via itunes but no respite " says No sim inserted".
pls help.

No, I did not find a way to fix it. Went to Apple store to be told that the phone is dead and I would need to purchase a new phone. A little frustrated with the fact that it is Apple who caused the phone to not work!

im not able to activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios6, saying server not available try later. im not able to make my phone work, not able to bring serial # im in guatemala what i can do?

Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken.
If this is the case, no support can be provided here.

If your phone was previously hacked to unlock it, when you updated the hack was removed and it's re-locked to the original carrier. The phone will now activate and operate only with that original carrier.

simply try doing a back up and restore
when going thru the activation screen, select SET UP AS NEW and then test your device. if it is not shutting down then it could be 1 or more apps tht have been downloaded wch could be affecting the device
you will then need to follow the process of eleimnation, meaning add 2 apps and then monitor your phone, if nothing happes then add another couple of them and then check
good luck !!

I'm having issues with connecting my iPhone 4 to iTunes?

Here's some information:
Apple product: iPhone 4
Computer: Windows 8 (originally) to Windows 8.1 (upgraded version)
Okay, I'm having issues with connecting my iPhone 4 to iTunes. I've connected it via U.S.B. and now everything's not working right the 10th time. Am I to redownload the iTunes software once again or will I never be able to add music anymore?

Close any open applications.
Click the Apple icon top left of the screen.
Select the bottom option in the cascading menu: Log Out (your user name).
Log in a Guest.
This will dertermine if there is a problem with your Admin account.

HT4972 Is anyone having issues with facebook on iphone 3?

Is anyone having issues with Facebook and iphone 3?

If you're using IOS 4.2.1, you can not download facebook. I have had the same problems and now just use safari to go on facebook. Hope this helps

Oh boy! Acting kind of weird seems to be an understatement, aquaequus!
What type of troubleshooting were we able to do with you? I want to make sure that we can get some sort of resolution for this problem.
It is quite possible the battery door may get your phone in working order again. I'm not sure if the store has it in stock, but it is available in our warehouse for $14.99 which can be ordered via customer service.

Was having issue with original 8G iphone showing 3.5G of "other" info

Was having issue with original 8G iphone showing 3.5G of "other" info stored on phone. I use multiple computers and at times sync with both and sync using mobileme account. After deleting extra text msg, emails, clearing history and cache in safari adn syncing was still there. Was able to resolve issue by syncing with BOTH computers! Have other iphones that sync with one of the computers. made sure to select sync, but uncheck items that do not want to have on my phone. did not have to sync photo's. now down to 400mb instead of 3.5G of other on phone! Was causing phone to run sluggish. only had 250mb of free space.

Deepa,
Okay, 3.0, not so old.
I am having this strange issue which few of the users are facing.
If you say that "few of the users" are having a problem, the implication is that not many users out of the whole are facing it and the stress is on the fact that it is such a minority. If, however, you say that "a few of the users" are having a problem, the implication is that although the affected users may be a small number in proportion to the whole, it is a problem nonetheless and this is the focus of the statement. But what is the point of either if there is in fact a technical problem consistently manifest? The statement should be more definitive, e.g., that all (100% of) users who do a particular action experience a problem consistently. I think that's what you want to say but I didn't see it stated. I will assume that to be the case.
As a developer I am not able to replicate the issue since whenever I click on edit and go the update page , the correct data is fetched.
Reading ahead, are you using the bookmarked URL? Why would you be unable to reproduce the problem if you do the very same thing?
The users use a bookedmarked URL for the report and this URL includes the session ID...
What authentication scheme is used? Is the session ID that is finally used for the request the same as that provided in the URL? In 3.0, I don't believe this should happen.
Is there a batch job (job 4001) that purges sessions? There should be. Query from dba_jobs.

Reception / Battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1

There are major reception and battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1.
I can not believe that Apple did not test this for major bugs like this one is.
I am a business user and can not effort to have bad reception. Apple wants to gain in the business clients... I never had this with my former BlackBerrys!
I need a reliable phone not a play thing like this is right now, it just needs it to work propely. And if a major bug like this comes along, fix it immediately. After the iPhone4 story, now this...incredible! Going back to my reliable BlackBerry! It just ain't reliable and takes forever to fix a problem.

I have the same issue after iOS 4.2.1 update. I am using iPhone 3GS officially unlocked by Apple. I tried using different SIM cards and both carriers show same problem when using phone in 3G mode. Phone falls back to EDGE mode showing 'E' from '3G' at start. I have reset the phone and rebooted several times and moved to different cell areas in the city just to verify the problem.
I had no such issues earlier. I also have Nokia E71 which shows full signal and has no such issues.
I have posted the bug on apple iphone feedback page. I hope they Apple will fix the problem and test the release properly on all models before releasing to public.

Try DFU Mode Restore. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes.

I cant activate my iphone 3gs after upgrade to 5.1.1

i cant activate my iphone 3gs after upgrade to 5.1.1

I am experiencing the same issue and could use some advice:
Yesterday I plugged my Iphone 3GS into my computer and I selected in Itunes to update to the latest IOS 5.1.1.
Before I did this the iphone worked correctly, and after I did this it will not let me access the apps at all. I went to the Apple store and the rep told me I needed to have a working AT&T sim installed in it to complete the upgrade. I went to the AT&T store and had them put one of their working sim card in and it would not work. The AT&T rep said he has seen several people with Iphone 3GS who updated to the latest IOS 5.1.1 whos phones will not recognize the sim card and thus will not let you get to the apps.
Does anyone know how to correct this problem?

why can't i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading it to ios 6?
It says,
''There is no sim card installed in the iphone you are attempting to activate''
Thanks for your help in advance!

There are several common causes for this problem:
Your security software (Antivirus, firewall, router settings) is blocking access to gs.apple.com, Apple's activation servers. Try temporarily disabling your security applications on your computer.
You have a redirect in your hosts file that defines a different IP address for gs.apple.com. you must delete all references to gs.apple.com from your hosts file (c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts, or /etc/hosts on a Mac)
Your phone is jailbroken or otherwise hacked.
