  • IPhone activation server down?

    Hello,
    Just tried to sync my iPhone and activate the new sim for it, but I'm getting the message on iTunes that activations are unavailable at this time.
    I've just finished my contract with O2 UK and am now with Virgin Mobile UK. I've successfully unlocked my iPhone. I am trying to activate the iPhone with the Virgin Mobile UK SIM in it.
    Help! Are the servers actually down?

    I've had a 2G for a couple of years now and have probably reinstalled, activated about 10 times.
    I called last night and a sr. level tech told me there were no server issues noted.
    They told me sometimes it takes a while for the 2G activations as the system is geared more towards the newe technology. I mentioned how that was a funny statement as from reviewing my bills, I am still paying the same amount for service, even though they have decided to downgrade their support. I have been montht to month on my bill for quite some time now with no contract and mentioned that now might be a good time to switch carriers after using cingular-att for the past 10= years. He didn't flinch.
    I was able to activate around midnight CST last night and again this morning.
    I have never been an apple fan even though I own a couple of their products. Their nickel and diming and control issues may just finally push me away, no matter how great the iphone 4G may be. Good luck with the activations guys!!!

  • IPhone 4s can't activate after restore

    I have an iPhone 4s. The software started acting a little buggy so I opted to do a system restore. After I did, I can't activate my phone. I don't have service with a carrier and use the phone primarily on wifi, and I need to get it working ASAP.

    It's because you were on the iOS 6 beta, which just expired. You'll need to get the final 6.0 release from the developer iOS portal here and install it manually.

  • Can't activate after restore. Know for a fact it wasn't jailbroken. Help?

    I backed up my phone, deleted all the content and reset it. Now I'm unable to activate it. I've been trying for several hours so I don't think it's because the server is down.  From what I've read this happens when a phone is jailbroken.  I'm the only owner of this phone and I know it's never been jailbroken. Is there anything else that could cause this? How can I fix this?

    I kept getting the "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable" message.  I tried activating over my WiFi at home and with iTunes on two separate computers. None of it worked, so I went to AT&T. I tried activating it over the WiFi at AT&T and we tried it with a different SIM card.  I've tried restoring it using iTunes. None of it has worked.

  • HT201328 Why my phone can't activate after restore? Even att confirm my iphone is qualify to unlock. Pls help anyone. Thx!

    I

    KiltedTim,
    Are you saying that if my iPhone is currently jailbroken and unlocked via Cydia and I just got it "unlocked" permanently by AT&T it would not be possible to upgrade to the latest iOS and use non-AT&T SIM card?
    Basically, I just go my iPhone unlocked by ATT and it is troublesome all the times to go through the UltraSn0w process to unlock the phone after jailbreaking it.
    Can I just now go ahead and restore my iPhone to the latest iOS and not worry about jailbreaking it/unlocking it since now AT&T has unlocked it permanently and use it with any other GSM network?
    Please advise... and thank you for your help in advance

  • Re: Impossible to activate your iPhone, activation server temporarily unavailable.. how long it will take?

    hi there
    just update ios to try beta 6  to our test iphone 3gs  but we got the message
    Impossible to activate your iPhone, activation server temporarily unavailable..
    we try several times to activate it but nothing. we have the dev account and also the provis auth. any idea why this could happen ?
    thanks

    As you are running a beta you must be a developer. You will have to go to the Developer forums for help.
    I suspect there is nothing wrong with the activation server; more likely you hacked the phone to get the beta. Now you are stuck.

  • Is the apple activation server down?

    I reset my phone 4 to get rid of previous settings and things and now it says "activation server down you can connect to itunes or try again later" I connected to intunes and tried everything apple told me to do. I also went to verizon store. I called apple and they said the activation server was down , but It has been this way for 2 days . Is it really down?

    Here's a link to the Apple System Status page:
    https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/
    I believe a sim card is required to activate an iPhone.

  • Stuck on contacting iphone activation server

    i tried searching forum for answer and didn't find anything
    trying to update to new iphone software on my 3G.
    Seems to be stuck on contacting iphone activation server.
    I have tried it several different days.
    I have seen other websites say to turn off wifi after it starts contacting the activation server.
    That does not work.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thank you!

    You need an active connection to the internet. So if you are using Little Snitch on the Mac or other Firewall make sure you open up ports.
    If you wife can update and restore then using the same user, computer, internet connection, etc should allow you to update your iPhone as well.

  • 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.

    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.

  • IPhone activation server temporarily unavailable SOLUTION!

    A lot of people, including me, were having this problem. I found a solution that wored for me! Here's what I did...
    First, I pressed OK on the message about the iPhone activation server.
    Second, I disconected my Internet Connection.
    Third, I pressed Update on iTunes and it told me I needed Internet.
    Fourth, I reconnected and pressed Update and it worked!
    I hope this helps!

    That's almost always because the phone was hacked to unlock it.

  • IPhone activation server temporarily unavailable

    I'm trying to install iPhone OS 3.0, it downloaded just fine but when it came time to install the install failed because "The iPhone activation server is temporarily unavailable". I have been retrying the install process constantly but have had no luck, is anyone else experiencing this issue? Any tips on how to accomplish a successful install?

    This is a server-side issue, so there really isn't anything you can do besides waiting. Currently, there are a lot of people attempting to perform the activation which requires a 'green light' from an Apple server, and this server seems to not meet the demand. It's a shame that Apple did not prepare for the OS 3.0 launch properly - they knew there will be a lot of iPhone customers trying to upgrade right away and still failed to set aside enough computing power to perform activations.

  • I updated my iPhone 3GS and i can't activate my phone

    I updated my iPhone 3GS and i can't activate my phone

    You can try, but despite what they'll tell you in the jailbreaking community, restoring the device does NOT always return the phone to factory condition, especially if the modem baseband has been altered.   The vast majority of users have bricked their phones and have been left high and dry by the jailbreaking community.
