I have just bought iphone and i can not activate, i`m now connected on wifi but phone tell me that activation server cannot be reached

i can not activate my iphone, just bought. the answer is activation service cannot be reached

I had a similar problem some time back when I bought one from the store.
I suggest you try and plug it in to a computer with itunes installed and an internet connection on the computer. then you should be fine.
Hope this solves your problem

I have just bought iphone 4 and when I make calls i don't hear anything from the headset excep when i plug in the headphones or turn on speaker ?

I have just bought iphone 4 and when I make calls i don't hear anything from the headset excep when i plug in the headphones or turn on speaker ?

I have the same problem. It only started a few days ago. When I make or receive calls I have to use speaker otherwise I can't hear a thing. I'm also pretty sure that when I try to make calls without the speaker turned on, it doesn't actually dial, but the display says it has.
I've tried restoring from a backup with no luck. I'm reluctant to restore as a new phone as it's such a pain.

I have just bought iphone 5 and i have a problem in charging it , firstly it took a long time to charge when i opened it to the first time , and its nearly dont charge on 110 output, and its taking a long time to charge on 220 reaches 50% in 1 hour

I have just bought iphone 5 and i have a problem in charging it , firstly it took a long time to charge when i opened it to the first time , and its nearly dont charge on 110 output, and its taking a long time to charge on 220 reaches 50% in 1 hour is this normal?

The charger block is universal and is able to handle multiple votages. One hour to reach 50% seems fine to me if the phone was completely flat to start with. Just leave it on charge for as long as it takes to reach 100%. I leave mine connected overnight all the time and it does not harm the battery

Hey aries35,
I found the following that goes over troubleshooting the same issue for the iPhone. I know you have an iPad, but the steps should still apply:
Perform the following steps:
Restart the iPhone.
Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
Restore the iPhone.
If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.

I am logged into the same things on both my iPhone and my MacBook Pro, except for mail. I use a gmail IMAP account and everything there already works on both machines. The iCloud account on my iPhone uses one Apple ID and the one on the Mac uses the second Apple ID.

Hi P.Rose,
If you're unable to connect to the iTunes Store, try these steps:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Cheers,

Thanks a lot for the answer. I'm so upset, have no even one contact on my phone. I has to do with the moving to iCloud from MobileMe.
I did exactly what you wrote, and when trying to click the vcf file on the iPhone the screen freezing, and then after few long seconds it goes alon to home.
So I tried less contacts in a Vcard, and i'm dividing my address book, doing little by little and it work.
Thank you so much.
I still dont get why the sync with my computer address book is not working.
And why when I moved to icloud all the photos I had next to the contacts are disappered.
I had my iPad, which it still, I did not move from MobileMe to iCloud and all the photos are there!
Anything I can do to use the iCloud on the iPad as well and update the iCloud with the photos?

Two days ago, I have a new iphone 4S. After I installed the OS and start the iphone, I found a strange screen says "!9D/JC" that blocks the iphone and I can not access the iphone until click many times on the "Desmiss" button at the botom of the screen.

I appreciate if you could provide me support to solve this problem especially it consumes the battery a lot.

Another post originally dated 5th Feb, 2012 with a slightly different unheard of error "%7D/JC".

The user also claimed that he didn't meddle with iOS. No solution could be found though.

HT201407 I bought Iphone 4S from Poland and I can not activate my Iphone in Astana, Kazakhstan. please, Can you help me?

Dear Apple Support,
I bought Iphone 4S from Poland and I can not activate my Iphone in Astana, Kazakhstan and can not use my Iphone in Astana.
Please, Can you help me?

This is not Apple support. It is a user to user forum.
It would seem that you bought a phone that is locked to a carrier in Poland. You would either need to contact this carrier to discuss unlocking, or return or sell the phone and buy an unlocked one.

Hello. I have an iphone 5s and i can not activate imessage nor facetime. I followed all the steps provided by the apple page and still i can not make it connect. The phone is connected to wifi at all times and has ios 8.

Can you send SMS by using the mobile data network instead of Wi-Fi? I had the same problem setting up my 5s from a backup of my 4s. Only after I sent an SMS via mobile data network, somehow iMessage and FaceTime got activated a couple of minutes later without me doing anything else.
I even changed my Apple ID password, because at one point I could not log into my account when iMessage asked for my account details.
If you have difficulty activating FaceTime or iMessage - Apple Support

Hello Sunnymalik1,
You must only have the required sim. All the information should be on your box.

There is no solution. You have to provide the ID and password. There is no way around it. If the person you bought it from can't provide it, return it and get your money back.

I just restarted my iphone and it says that the activation server cannot be reached...what do i do?

I have had the same problem. Try and try again was the advice from my telecompany. I did and eventualy it worked. With my phone i had to try for five hours. With the ipad it was faster.
