HT4623 having the message " activation required" and i am unable to activate my iphone 4

I got up from bed on sunday and got the message " software expired" on my Iphone 4. I switched it off and on and got the message "activation required". Since my wireless connection is slow, I tried using iTunes on my laptop to restore my phone to factory settings but till today i have been unable to get my Iphone on.
Can some one help me on how to go about it?

The phone is carrier locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use. Contact the carrier it's locked to to find out what their unocking policy is.
If you purchased it from Carphone Warehouse in the UK, they do NOT sell unlocked phones. The phones they sell will only activate on a UK carrier and will lock to the first UK carrier used.

Sounds like the iPhone is locked to the original Carrier
and you are trying to use a sim from another carrier
and only that original carrier can unlock the iPhone

First, for the forum view issue. Go to My Settings (on the right) and in General Settings change the Topic Page View to Flat. Click Save. Posts should show up in the order they were written.
Have you seen this?

Also, since you said that you've gone through the 5 Rs, I would assume that you used the iPod Updater to restore (since there is no other way of doing it and you don't "run" the 5 Rs).
When you restored, did you use the latest updater?
You may also want to try formatting the iPod through Windows. Connect it to the computer and when it appears in My Computer right click it and go to format. Does anything happen? Can you format the iPod through Windows?

When trying to launch iTunes it freezes and I get the message: "Authentication Required. To access this site you need to log in to area "100656 on mellor.co. Your password will be sent in the clear." I am unable to enter a uname or password. Please help!!

When trying to launch iTunes on my PC running Windows 7 it freezes and I get the message: "Authentication Required. To access this site you need to log in to area "100656 on mellor.co. Your password will be sent in the clear." Because iTunes is frizen at this point I am unable to enter a username or password, or in fact do anything. Please help!! I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes numerous times as well as attempting all of the fixes that I could find on-line and still no joy.

That sounds extremely phishy to me... iTunes does not require authentication simply to launch it. I suspect you've got something nasty intercepting network traffic. That server may be set up to log the Apple ID that you enter so it can be used fraudulently. Try ComboFix from Bleeping Computer.
FWIW the domain mellor.co is registered to an accountants in Knutsford, Cheshire, UK, and produces the same authentication request if visited with a browser. There is no sign of a "real" publicly visible website at that domain which is a somewhat odd.

Hi I am Del
I am trying to rent a movie on my Apple tv keep getting the message - verification required before you can make purchases you must go to the itunes store on your computer and verify your payment information
Thanks

Have you paired your Apple Tv with your iTunes account? That's how rentals and purchases are billed. If, however, you have already done that it is possible that there is a glitch in the system. I've had that happen occasionally and it usually goes away if I reset Apple Tv. On one occasion that I didn't work so I had to go to iTunes and deauthorize and then authorize this computer. Also, check to see if your Home Sharing is on (under File in iTunes). Hope that helps.

i keep getting the message "error signature" and iTunes needs to close. please help.

Hi johnbpl,
It sounds as if you are having difficulty connecting to the App Store to check for updates for applications on your iPad. If that is the case, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
Start with the section Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch then if needed the section Learn more.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

What to do with the message: Activating embedded security chip

Hello,
I've been using a dc7800 for a couple of months without problems, running Windows 7. As the machine had only 1GB RAM, i added two modules of 1GB each last week. Apparently one of the modules is faulty, as the pc would not boot with both modules inserted.
I swapped the modules a couple of times to find out which one was giving the culprit - i removed power from the pc, changed the modules and powered it on again to see if it would boot ok now.
Now, after a few times the message "Activating embedded security chip" appeared on screen every time i powered on the pc. The message stayed for a couple of seconds, then the pc restarted and the message reappeared and so on.
Pressing F10 during boot resulted in a "301 Keyboard error message" together with the "Activating embedded security chip" message, again with a restart after a few seconds.
In an attempt to solve the problem i reset the cmos by pressing the internal switch for 5 seconds. Since then, after powering up the pc i only see "F1 Accept" and "F2 Cancel" on the screen, but keyboard input is not recognized.
Again, the pc restarts after a few seconds.
I upgraded the Bios to v1.32 some time ago, but i have never touched the TPM settings in the bios.
Any suggestion to solve this annoying problem is much appreciated!
Kind regards,
Ruud

Hi, since I've bought the iphone, my facetime never works, I just can't activate the facetime in settings, when I put it on, after some time, the phone shows the message: activation unsuccesful. Do you guys know what should I do?

Hi, since I've bought the iphone, my facetime never works, I just can't activate the facetime in settings, when I put it on, after some time, the phone shows the message: activation unsuccesful. Do you guys know what should I do?

Where are you, what network are you on and where did you get the phone?
If you are on an unsupported network, Facetime may never be able to activate. If the phone originated in a different country, facetime is probably trying to send an International text message to activate. If you don't have International text messaging, it will fail.

Hello Anybody, I have a question. Can any of you please suggest me how to make an xml file from the database table with all the records?
Note:- I am having the XSD Schema file and the resulted XML file should be in that XSD format only.

The Oracle documentation has a good overview of the options available
Generating XML Data from the Database
Without knowing your version, I just picked 11.2, so you made need to look for that chapter in the documentation for your version to find applicable information.
You can also find some information in XML DB FAQ

. You do not need a seperate Apple ID. One one device you just need to go to Settings>Messages and add another/different Messaging email address and delete the common Apple ID address. Also see:

I have an old Mac G5 with OSX 10.5.8
After a crash of my HD, I reinstalled the CS3.
At the time of recording I get a window with the message "COMPLETED REGISTRATION" and under "There was a problem sending the informasioni via internet" and still under three choices to "send back" and "records in a second time "or" never record "and I continue to choose the latter option.
Another problem is that in Bridge (version 2.0.0.975) I can no longer see thumbnails of RAW files from my Canon 40D that I saw before.
Should I upgrade ACR? which is the latest version supported on my Mac?
thank you
