i'm updating my iphone 3gs but i get to the activation point and it tells me the activation server is temporarily unavailable and i keep trying .i'm worried to loose some of the memo? please advice
That's almost always because the phone was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it.

I started updating my iPhone 3gs but now it is locked and sim is not being recognized by the set
Sounds like you had the phone hacked to work on a network other than what the phone was originally locked to. When you updated the software on the phone it reverted back to the lock which makes your sim unusable.

That message usually indicates that the phone was either hacked/modified or jailbroken?
Was this phone ever locked to a different phone carrier? -

hi, I was trying to update my iPhone 3gS but when I turn it on again iTunes send me a message that says error 3194 occurs, please help me!!
If the screen shows a plug going to itunes, then you have no choice, It's in recovery mode. You'll be given the chance to restore from a backup either from itunes or icloud.
I assume when you got the message to update (was this for the ios or update some apps?), that was before the device when dead. At any rate, doing a restore does not change the ios. -
While updating my iphone 3GS, i am getting a message that no sim card is installed in iphone. also my iphone has shows the message that iphone could not be activated because activation server is unavailable. I have reinserted the some, yet the problem persists. Please help.
If your phone was EVER hacked to unlock it, when you updated the hack was removed and it's now re-locked to its original carrier and will work only with a SIM card from that carrier..

2 errors: "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable" and the sim says "searching" while iTunes says there is "No Sim installed" - but of course, there is! Any help please??
Hi Peter,
Thank you for the note - I have seen similar replies on other posting errors and I see how that could make sense. The thing is, my iPhone is not jailbroken - it is from an authorized distributor. However, when I told them about the "no service" problem on the sim, they were unable to assist. Then my phone messaged that an itunes restore was required - so I did that, several times, to the error message now noted on my post. I wonder if there is some other way to over-write this message? Thanks very much. -

We dont know yet if he is doing it from the phone itself!
If you do from the phone try from iTunes and vice versa. -
I need to update my iphone software, but I get a message saying that I need to transfer my songs from my iphone to itunes first. There used to be a Transfer link on the summary page when I connected my iphone to my macbook, but I am unable to find it now.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Select the device from the device list, then file > devices > transfer. -
I am trying to restore my phone, however it says that the iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. I have tried again a few times but still the same. Any suggestions?
Was your phone ever locked to a different phone carrier than the one your on now?
If so how was your phone unlocked?
Very rarely is the server unavailable.
Is your phone jailbroken or was your computer used to jailbreak a device? -
I can not activate my iphone 3GS because the activation server is temporarily unavailable and takes about an hour so I can do?
Sometimes the activation server is just not available for a short time. Trying again usually corrects this problem. But as Peter Gillespie suggests, if the iPhone you are trying to activate has ever been jailbroken, or the computer you are using to activate the phone has been used to jailbreak an iOS device then you will get the Activation Server not Available message.

Hi, anyone can help me? I can't activated my ip4 after restored n updated and it's showed activation server is temporarily unavailable and the device can't read my SIM card,can someone please help me....thanks
It is 99% hacked/jailbroken iPhone to use a different carrier than intended. You have to put the sim from the original carrier or ask them to unlock the iPhone. We as well as Apple cannot help you with this.
