Mine was not jailbroken but is giving the same message when I updated it to iOS 6.1.2. Please help urgently, I really need this phone to be online as soon as yesterday
Possible causes:
1. Your antivirus is blocking access to gs.apple.com.
2. Your phone is jailbroken.
3. Your computer has been used at some time in the past to jaibreak some iOS device (not necessarily the phone with the problem), and its network database was corrupted by the hacking software that was used.
4. Apple's activation servers are down (very rare, and never for more than an hour or so).
For 1. try disabling your antivirus.
For 2. & 3. you need to go somewhere other than an apple forum for help. Although you can try deleting lines containing gs.apple.com from your "hosts" file on your computer.

    You can only purchase apps and other media for the county's sore in which yu are located. You account, included payment method, also must be associated with that country.
    Sam applies for updating apps. Note that not all apps are available in all country so y will not be able to update an app if you are in another country and that app is not available in that country or your account is not associated with that country.
    You can change the country and other things by:

    This is most likely because it was jailbroken.  In which case, your phone is now permanently disabled.

    You phone was hacked. You can not get help with it here. Hacking / Jailbreaking voids any warraty and forfeits your right to support. Discussing jailbroken / hacked devices is forbidden by the terms of service here.

  • Why did I lose all my Verizon ring tones after updating to new software?

    Why did. I lose all my Verizon ring tones after updating to new software?  Always worked before, now they are gone!  Contacted Verizon, who could not explain. 

    I was having a similar problem and here's what solved it for me: Under Settings>Notes the default account was changed from iCloud to another account for no apparent reason when I upgraded to iOS 7.  When I changed it back to iCloud, my notes started appearing on all devices again.  You might also want to check the Accounts setting under the Notes app to make sure All Notes is checked to retreive notes from all accounts.  Similarly, Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars has a default account that should match as well.  Good luck.

    Try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router.

  • My iphone 3gs is not activating after updating my software with i tunes...what shall i do? cant i go back to my normal version which was ios 4.1

    my iphone 3gs which is not associated with this accunt is not activating after updating the sof tware, it connects to i tunes but i tunes says "we arh your unable to continue with your activation at this time, please try again later or contact customer care". my iphone aslo just says it cannot be activated or something like that every time i try. i have been waiting for 4 hours now but it still hasnt worked. how can i uninstal this update and go back to my old version which ws ios 4.1 or or ios 4,3. i dont even know what version it updated to, im assuming it is ios5 but not sure. it says try connecting to i tunes as well but it is connected and i tunes cant activate it either. my phone is connect to a wifi but it stll says no service.
    i will really appreciate some help.
    thanks.

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
    original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
    carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
    if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Where did you acquire this iPhone?
    What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

  • Iphone 3GS won't activate after update - asks for itunes, which just quits unexpectedly every time!

    I updated my iphone 3GS and now when I turn it on it just asks to be connected to itunes. Problem is when I do this, itunes unexpectedly quits every time. I've updated the laptop and it makes no difference, and I am left without a phone...really not impressed and can't wait for my upgrade to get rid of it.

    Try this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    This put's an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.  Should solve the problem if it is phone related.  If not, you may want to post in iTunes support as well.  I had a similar problem recently with an iPod touch and this fixed it.

  • IPhone 3gs volume very low after updating to iOS4.2.1???

    After updating to ios 4.2.1 my iphone volume has lowered to much extent.
    Now it is hardly audible. And please don't tell me to check volume limit because it is already off.
    Keyboard clicks are hardly audible.
    iPod volume has also lowered.
    Volume of every application is too silent.
    SO please help me out of this.

    I had the same problem and tried to change to a different languge and then back to english and as soon as I did that my volume limit is back to its highest level as before so it worked for me. Worth trying guys! Hope it works for you cos I know it didn't work for some.

  • IPhone 3gs is not responding after update and then restore!!!

    Hi, I have an iPhone 3gs and i plugged it in to charge. All of the sudden the screen shuts off and it restarts. When it turn back on it says your iPhone has been updated to iOS 6.1.3 please connect it iTunes. When i did connect to itunes it didnt do anything. I followed the instructions on the iPhone but nothing. I tried this on 3 different computers and still nothing. I read some things on the other apple supports saying to restore. Right before the restore would finish on the coumputer it would say error 1!! I tried to restore on different computers as well several times. I never pressed or did anything on the iPhone to make it do this. What do I need to do to get rid of the error or fix the iphone??

    Probably because it's jailbroken or hacked to be used with another carrier.

    Hi,
    This message is due an error of connection.
    Try to change the usb or use your origin cable.
    Also, you can desactivate your firewall if you are using windows7...
