I lost my phone. How can I activate my old phone?

I just lost my phone 2 days ago. It was a Samsung Convoy. The last time I broke my phone and had to switch to my old Nokia it was very easy. For some reason this time I keep running into dead ends on the website and countless ads for the backup service. Basically I am just looking for the spot where I can type in the id number for the phone to have it activate but I cannot find it. I also dialed the *228 on my nokia and it said it was programming for a couple minutes then said programming failed. Any suggestions on what to do now would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    How can I activate an old version of Photoshop that I've loaded on my new tablet? The web activation doesn't work, and when I call the number, it says it's not being used anymore. Meanwhile, I'm down to 13 days till it stops working due to not being activated. HELP?  I really need to continue using this product for my home business.It works fine not activated but the threat is that it will stop working in 13 more days if I don't get it activated, and none of the activation methods they list seem to work.

    The new serial number is to the right of your chosen download.

  • How can I activate an old version of Dreamweaver on a new computer? (2004 version)

    I had Dreamweaver 2004 on my old laptop which recently crashed.  I need to transfer the program to my new computer.  Online activation has been shut down for this version.  How can I activate it?

    Keep in mind that 2004 software is more than a decade old now.  Adobe no longer supports it.  And it was never intended to run on modern operating systems so you may experience problems.  Also, web standards have changed a LOT in 10 years.  This might be a good opportunity to update your software.

  • How can I activate my old iPod classic?

    I thought that my iPod classic had been stolen a while ago and eventually went out and bought a new one. Now, I have found the old one - it had slid down behind a rather large piece of furniture in my house and needless to say, I'm thrilled to find it. I want to give it to my daughter.
    But when I try to activate it by plugging it into my MacBook Pro, iTunes doesn't seem to recognise it. What can I do about this? Also, I am not sure if I have the registration number anymore. Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you,
    Paddy O'Dea

    There is no need to activate old iPod, it just need to be recharged, if the battery is still in working condition.
    Try this, it wont delete any music in your iPod, the critical step is charging the battery.
    After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours) ( for the first 30 minutes, there wont be any sign of life on the iPod screen)
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.

  • How can I activate an old version of Adobe Encore (1.5)?

    I am trying to re-install my purchased version of Adobe Encore 1.5.  I realize this program is several years old and no longer supported, however, it still suits my needs and I would like to continue using my purchase.  Since the activation site is no longer available, I am unable to authorize it after install.  Is there a fix for this?  I've contacted Adobe support via chat and was told that chat/phone support will not address this issue since they no longer support the program.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    oh, if premiere cs2 includes encore, you're probably ok (if you only use encore and not premiere, unless you also have a license for an old premiere version).

  • I swapped my iphone from apple store india and my imei of iphone changed and i have lost the box and bill of phone , how can i get my old imei number.

    I swapped my iphone from apple store india and my imei of iphone changed and i have lost the box and bill of phone , how can i get my old imei number.

    Of course it changed. A phone's IMEI number is unique to each phone. The IMEI number for a phone does not transfer to another phone.
    Since your iPhone was exchanged under warranty without having the box and bill for the original purchase, you don't need it now either. The exchange under warranty remains under the warranty for the original purchase.

  • I synced my phone to my computer. When updated with iOS7.0.2 I lost all my contacts, photos and music. I lost everything? How can i get them back? Is there any backup?

    I synced my phone to my computer. When updated with iOS7.0.2 I lost all my contacts, photos and music. I lost everything? How can i get them back? Is there any backup?

    Everything should be on your computer.
    You should be syncing contacts and calendars with your comptuer regularly.
    You should be transferring all itunes purchases to your computer regularly.
    You should be importing all pics taken with iphone to your computer regularly.
    Most especially before any update.
    Have you failed to do this?

    i got apple iphone 3 and i getting problem to activate that its showing message could not activate plz help me how can i activate my phone?

    Most likely your phone is carrier locked to a different carrier than the SIM card you're using.  It will activate and operate only with the carrier to which it's locked.

    Unfortunately, you can't.  There's no way around it.  You'll have to get the ID and password used to originally activate the phone or you will not be able to activate it again.  If you can't contact them, try to get your money back because you won't be able to use it.

  • After updating and restoring to IOS5, i could not activate, because in Nepal i phone isworking with the gavey sim, how can i activate?

    after updating to ios5 from ios4.3.3 , i could not activate because i am using Gavey sim with NTC( nepal telecom sim), now it asks for the original sim, which is not available in NEPAL, what to do? how can i activate Iphone4?

    how old is the phone? was this the first time you are putting your sim in the iphone? if it is it might be locked to a previous carrier...if not, try to do a restore again and see if it picks up the sim card after. do the restore while the sim card is intact, and then not intact. otherwise, you'll might have to take it to an apple store to get it looked at.
