HT4623 i get thgis msg "We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time", when i updated ma iphone and it doesn't start .. pls help?
pls help me how to start of ma iphone 3g , as i updated it to ios 6.1.2
99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, because it appears that it was not officially unlocked.

am update my iphone 3gs ios4.1 to ios 6.0.1 using itunes when update comleted itunes show a message Were sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time. Please try again later, or contact customer care! pls help me pls
Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
Where did you acquire this iPhone?
What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>
About=>Carrier? -

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. -
HT4623 Hello Management, Whenever i try to upgrade my Iphone it Brings this massage "We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time. Please try again later, or contact customer care.
You are not talking to management here. No one here is an employee or representative of Apple. We are all users and this is a user to user forum.
The message you describe is usually presented when a phone that has previously been jailbroken, hacked or otherwise been altered in an unauthorized manner. If this applies to your phone you will have to find help elsewhere. The terms of use of this forum prohibit discussion of unauthorized altered devices. -

mathi,
i keep getting this massage when i am activating my i phone 5,16GB, IOs 8 "We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time"
I have seen this message after upgrading both the iPhone 5S and the iPad 3, when upgrading using a USB connection to iTunes. Is that, what you have been doing?
In that case disconnect your iPhone, start the setup on the iPhone and connect it again to your Mac restore your data. -

Im getting We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time
Im getting We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time.. Help
Same deal. I was getting Error 3194 then I got the we're unable to contact servers thing. I've had tons of issues with iPhone software lately and enough so on my last 2 devices to have it replaced by a new iPhone that continues to act up as of now. I've had issues with updating apps on the phone and now updating to new versions of iOS since 4 came out. Apple has not been helpful in this situation and now want $30 just to help since they don't allow AT&T access to help. This is getting to be such a pain and def a reason I don't want the next iPhone if this is the kind of service I'm getting.

HT4623 We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time.
after I connected itune, my iphone lost imei now how can i atcive my iphne plz help me i need my iphone and i love apple iphone
still i have a massage in itune :We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time.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. -
