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.

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. -

customer care
so what I can doIf you don't know exactly where it came from, then odds are you have a hacked, gray market phone.
Call AppleCare and give them the serial number. They should be able to tell you if it's carrier locked in their database. If it is, the only hope of it ever working again would be to get the original carrier to authorize unlocking it. If they won't, it's a brick. Even if they do, there's a chance it may never activate properly again because of the hack. -
"We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time"
I bought a new iPhone 4s from a electronics shop here in Norway today with a norwegian network. When I tried to activate my iPhone, I got this message:
"We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time"
I also tried to activate the iPhone from the phone itself, but it gets stuck when I try to type in the PIN-code and tells me that I have to write in the PUK-code, even though I haven't typed in the wrong PIN-code. I've tried to hard reset the phone, reboot the computer and turn off the firewall, but nothing worked.
Could this have anything to do with the fact that I've changed network provider, and it's going to take about 10 days for the new SIM-card to work?Hope you already found a solution, if not try this:

HT201407 "We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time"
"We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time" I got this while trying to restore my iPhone 4 and it wouldn't restore. How do I fix this please?
"We're Sorry, Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care?"
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, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked. -

after updating my iphone 3gs to ios6 a message "we're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time." pls help
I have the same problem after updating to the latest iTunes. I purchased an iPhone 4S this past summer and gave my 3GS to my 6 year-old minus the SIM card-- an instant iPod Touch. Things were fine until the latest version of iTunes 11.0. Until I updated to 11.0.1, iTunes would not even "see" the iPhone.
How do I get past the insistence to activate the phone? Right now, it's a useless brick. -

We're sorry we are unable to continue with your activation at this time iphone 3gs
i updated my iPhone 3gs to latest iOS 6.0.1 from iOS 4.1 but i'm stuck on Activation. and then i found a solution i deleted lockdown folder from root/var/root/library now my iPhone is not showing activation screen but when i connect my iPhone to my iTunes it gives me an Error "we're sorry we are unable to continue with your activation at this time".
Where, exactly, did you get the phone?
The term "factory unlocked" has no meaning. Apple does not use that term anywhere. iPhones are either locked, unlocked (either purchased directly from Apple or in a country where all iPhones are unlocked) or unlocked by the original carrier.
If you purchased a "factory unlocked" phone from an unauthorized source, or you went to a shop or a web site and had it "factory unlocked", it was hacked. Not legitimately unlocked.
