OK, I suggest trying restoring and recovering. If those end up giving you the same "cannot activate" message, you should contact your cellular carrier. Here's how to do that:

What is apple doing to fix the bugs from IOS 7.1.2 update? this update has ruined my phone

What is Apple doing to fix the bugs from IOS 7.1.2 update??? This update has ruined my phone! Why would you put out a update you know is going to ruin someones phone? Whats being done? I have tried everything to fix my phone which was just fine before Apples IOS 7.1.2 update!!!

I have also experienced issues with my iphone5 since updating to ios 7.1.2, prior to this update my phone was working perfectly fine and I know I didnt cause any damage to the phone because I baby my iphone as if it was my child. Ever since I updated to 7.1.2 my phone shutts itself down while I am using it, it can be while using whatsapp, browsing the internet or using apps, more than anything it fails while using the internet. The screen will either start to flicker or vertical lines will pop up and then the phone will fade to black, after this happens the phone will get really hot and to turn it back on I have to wait 5-10 minutes and hold down the power and home keys at the same time for about 15 seconds for it to turn back on, I have to wait 5-10 minutes because if I dont when I boot it back up it immediately shutts down again. This is a constant all day thing and for now i get by just making phone calls and sending regular text but I try to keep the action down to a minimum to prevent missing a phone call. I tried clearing the phone and rebooting it to original setting but this didnt fix it. After reading and speaking with several techs they tell me that ios 7.1.2 rolled out some performance adjustments one particular that affects the amp levels that the battery works at and supposedly the iphone 5 cant handle it, they explained that the phone for certain activities is asking for more or less power and the phone panics into safe mode and shutts itself down. My battery life is fine so I havent changed the battery like someone had suggested. In the diagnostic data it gives a panic.ips error. Id really like to know if there is any possible way to roll back to 7.1.1 through jailbreak or any other way, I was perfectly happy with this phone and didnt plan on buying another one for atleast 1-2 more years. If anyone can help me out this would be greatly appreciated, if not I hope apple is working to fix this.

Finally got round to buying an iPhone 4, really excellent to start with. The sharing of music from my Mac Mini was excellent. ios6 update has ruined all that! The artist view miss's out most of my music and the sharing sometimes doesn't work at all!

How do I get this feature working again? I am reluctant to move to iTunes 10.7 because I don't trust Apple at the moment.

My suggestion:
1) Always using MAC AIR with the power plug in.
2)Don' let the power level of battory fall under 30% percentage.
3)If the MAC can't be recharged now, just let it be with power plugged, WAIT...

HT4623 My friend has an I phone & received word that she should install iOS6 onto her phone. When I try to do this, the line where it says download & install does not light up & therefore, I am unable to install. Why is this?

My friend has an I phone & received word that she should install iOS6. When I tried to do this, the line that says "download & install" isn't lit up & therefore, I am unable to do this. Any ideas? My phone was purchased about 3 weeks ago.

To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

Ios6 update has done something to you tube icon and now I can't see videos. Flash player required message and a black bar appears when scrolling. Any ideas? I've booked an appointment at the Genius Bar next Saturday but don't want to waste their time

iOS 6 update has done something to the YouTube icon and now I can't see videos when following the new link in the bookmark bar. Flash player required message appears and there is a black bar when scrolling.

YouTube is not now part of iOS 6. However, you can download the YouTube app at http://itunes.apple.com/app/youtube/id544007664.

HT4623 iOs6 update does not show up on iPad2.

I am trying to add an application and it requires the iOS6 update. The update is not showing up under my settings.
HELP!

The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
Your iPad update to iOS 6.0.1, so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change.

KitKat update has turned my phone into a brick. It won't turn on, and I can't get it to take a charge. HELP!!

My phone went through the Kitkat update about a week ago, and since I've ran out of battery with in 8 hours of taking it off a full charge, and now today It died, and I plugged it in, well it won't charge, and i can't get it to turn on at all. My phone is a brick right now and I really just don't understand what I can't do to fix it.

Don't do the update. My phone did the update and the droid laid on his back with an X and now all I get is the red logo. cant do a factory reboot or get into the ap menu just red logo. IT BRICKED MY PHONE I have had it since they came out and have been all over the world with it, and never had a problem until KITKAT BRICKED IT.
Verizon only response is to send me a refurbished phone that I will have to spend weeks to get it set back up to the way that I had it.
I am not happy with the response for their screw up. I don't want a refurbished phone I want my good phone to work and they don't know how to fix it just replace that is the support. I have seen the post on the net and I am not the only person that this has happened to in the android community.
If you want a good paper weight than do the update and take the chance.

New iPod update has messed up my Artist list!!!

I would greatly appreciate if anyone could help me out, as this problem is causing a great deal of annoyance & frustration. My iPod recently that there was a new update to download, which I did. However, once I did this, this has greatly messed up my Artist listings. For example, I had the Ozzy Osbourne "Prince Of Darkness" set on my iTunes. Disc 3 of this set is Ozzy with other artists, so the Artist name on these songs are written as Ozzy with Primus, Ozzy with Type O Negative, etc. I have it written as Artist Sort Name: Ozzy Osbourne and not listed as a compilation, so that it still lists under the name of Ozzy Osbourne in Artist List. Before the update download, everything was nicely organized under this one name. Now however, every different name (ie. ...with Primus, ...with Type O Negative) is now listed in Artists under Ozzy Osbourne. This is only one of many examples were this has occured, so as can be imagined, my Artist List is now greatly disorganized. It is very frustrating, especially since I have been spending a lot of time trying to organize my iPod. Can you please tell me how I can get things straight again. Thanks,
-Colin

Well we don't even know you, so why us? we are just users of Apple equipment, like you are, well maybe not quite like you are but you know what I mean.
Curb the attitude and describe your issues and someone may help.
Here's one to start with, the little grey wheel that went around and around while Mountain Lion and Mavericks got started has been replaced by an blue bar that gets longer. It's normal.

IOS 7.0.4 update has ruined my phone

Problems the second I update ios7.0.4 to my iPhone 5. At the beginning the phone blinked out, freeze then shutting down and reset itself. Non stop. Every five minutes freeze, blank out, then a few seconds later apple pops up. Reset the phone on computer, erased and started fresh, did not help. Finally it just quit and everything worked as normal . Was excited when I notice my battery wouldn't die. Stayed 90% all day. Then I found that was a lie. The only time my phone tells the real amount of battery is if you hard reset. Then you will see the battery life and the phone will stay at that new percent. I can tell when I'm down to 10% because the phone start to reset over and over as I use it. Once it is fully charged it will begin the same process with constant shut down until the battery dies enough and it will run normal till I hit 10% again. Can not use USB when plugging into radio because it also charges the phone which again causes it to reset itself over and over. Anyone else having this problem? Is there a solution?

Try these coupe of steps see if those help you.
1. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Netowrk settings OR Settings>General>Reset>Reset All settings.
2. Insted of updating try doing a clean restore, this slove most of the problems people are facing. Always prefer to do a clean restore rather than updating the iOS.

ITunes Update has messed up my Windows installation

I just opened iTunes to transfer some files across to an iPhone, and it prompted me to update iTunes, which I agreed to. Upon the update finishing it stated that a system restart was required in order to complete the process. However, after doing this CHKDSK thinks the C drive needs checking and goes through the full check. Upon this completing, the machine again restarts as expected, but Windows will then not boot. It gets to a certain stage of loading (Windows splash loading screen shows for a few seconds), then the PC restarts and gets itself stuck in a loop of trying to start. The only way I can get it to boot is to start in safe mode and then use system restore to get back to a previous configuration. I thought maybe something had gone wrong the first time, so I tried the whole process again, and again I've got the same problem.
Now I feel like the only way I'm going to get this to work is to wipe the machine and start again as something has obviously gone haywire with the hard disk after applying this update. As this is an iPhone, I don't have the luxury of using any other software for transfering files to and from it.
Has anybody else had a similar issue?
