  • Does ipad activation have to occur over a secure connection?

    does ipad activation have to occur over a secure connection?

    Thank you and Merry Christmas - would the secure server be at Apple? I have at home two (2) wifi networks set up one for work (secured) and one for guests (unsecured), just got an ipad for my grandson and I'm trying to activate it using the guest network and the ipad will not connect to apple for activation. Do you think the servers at Apple recognize that the new ipad is utilizing and unsecured network and will not connect because of this situation?

  • Hung on "contacting the ipad activation server"

    I am trying to upgrade my ipad2 from 4.3.5 to 5.0.1.  It has downloaded everything, but seems to be hung (15 minutes so far) on "contacting the ipad activation server" "Contacting the iTunes store".  Be patient or restart?

    Answered my own question. After letting it marinate in the background for a couple of hours, I had to force-quit iTunes. My phone was unaffected, and a subsequent attempt to restore has been successful.

  • Was my ipad actived before I had used ?

    I have just bought a ipad today. But the estimated expiration date of warranty is 6-Aug. Was my ipad actived before I had used ?

    If the estimated expiration date is August 6, 2015, no it hasn't been activated before. It does say "estimated" doesn't it?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to help a friend with his iPad.  He tried updating it to 7.0.4 and now he's having problems activating the iPad with his Apple ID, long story short he has forgot his ID and now his Apple account is disabled, when he tried to re-able vie his hotmail email he manage to forget his password again and now he's blocked himself out of that.  He did not setup his hotmail account correctly and now has no way of accessing that account.  How can he activate his iPad? 

    If iPad is using IOS 7, the owner's Apple ID and Password is need to:
    1. Turn off Find My iPhone
    2. Erase device
    3. Reactivate device
    Try getting help from Apple Technical Support.

    1) Unable to continue with your activation at this time
    2) Restore Needed Iphone cannot make or receive calls. Restore from itunes ...

    The techie that checked it decided to replace my phone with a new one.
    The only answer I have to this problem is that you take your iPhone/iPad to Apple support or wherever you bought it from to assist and maybe have it swopped.

  • IPad activation error

    Hello,
    After 10 days without using my iPad, last night I turned it on and it asked me to activate it. The request seemed to come out of nowhere, but I'm assuming there was an automatic update that I did not notice (I confess I can't remember if it was already iOS 7.0.4 before this problem).
    I proceeded to activate it anyway, but, after the set up questions (language, region and wi-fi network), it showed the message below:
    "Activation Error
    Activation requested could not be completed. If the problem persists, please contact customer care."
    That prevented me from going any further (I can't even access the home screen).
    It's an iPad II 64GB, iOS 7.0.4, factory unlocked.
    I already tried:
    - Restoring the iPad with and without the sim card inside during activation (both with an active sim from a local carrier - I'm in Brazil - and the original AT&T sim card - but, again... it's factory unlocked)
    - Activating it with and without the sim card inside (same sims as above)
    - Activating it connected to iTunes and wi-fi and only wi-fi
    - Activating it through different wi-fi networks
    - Talking to Apple customer care for 2+ hours with no success
    One detail that might be relevant is that even when I insert the active sim card, it cannot find a signal. It does detect the sim (shows "Searching..." for a few seconds vefore turning to "No Signal").
    I never tried to jailbreak it neither have I ever used my computer to try to jailbreak any Apple device. There were also no drops or anything that could lead it to a hardware fail.
    Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this?
    Thank you very much in advance

    Alright, so the problem does seem to be related to the lack of signal.
    Every time I try to activate it and the signal status is "Searching..." for a long time, it takes a while trying to activate to then show a different error message, related to server timeout, giving me the option to try again. However, when the status is "No Signal", or when I try to activate it without a sim card, it goes straight to Activation Error.
    With that in mind, I already tried activating it with different sim cards of different carriers with no success. No matter what sim card I use, it never gets a signal (though my iPad is factory unlocked). Any idea of what I can do here, given that I cannot even access the home screen.
    I'm traveling in a couple days and would really like to take my (working) iPad with me, so any help is deeply appreciated.
    Thanks again
