My iPhone 4 also deactivated after installing the 7.1.2 update

As topic.  I installed the update yesterday, phone worked fine through when I went to bed, then deactivated itself sometime while I was asleep.  I just want to know how I can re-activate it.  Is there a reset button on it somewhere?

Hello there, xXFrostXx.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps to follow when unable to activate your iOS device:
Get help activating your iPhone
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3424
Check the system status for iOS Device Activation. If the iOS Device Activation status isn't green, try activating your iPhone later.
Restart the iPhone.
Try to reach the activation server another way, then try to activate.
Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you can't activate using a cellular data connection.
Try connecting to iTunes if you can't activate using Wi-Fi.
Restore the iPhone.
If you receive an alert message when you try to activate your iPhone, place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you still can't complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.
If you're asked to enter a password to proceed with activating the iPhone, Activation Lock might be enabled as part of Find my iPhone.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

  • After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update, I can no longer access the itunes store and my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?

    After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update I can no longer acces the itunes store nad my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled windows updates. I have checked the firewall settings. what else?

    The problem is with version 10.4.1.  I had to reload 10.3 to get it to work.  The recommendation from a previous poster worked for me.  Here was their list of steps:
    Go to Control Panel>Programs>Uninstall
    2.  Uninstall the following Apple programs in the following order:
         a. iTunes
         b. QuickTime
         c. Apple Software Update
         d. Apple Mobile Devices Support
         e. Bonjour
         f.  Apple Appllcation Support
    3.  Reboot PC
    4.  Find, Download and Install iTunes 10.3 (you can find it at FileHippo.com)
    If you start iTunes now you will get an error message saying that the current iTunes library was created by a newer version of iTunes.  To correct this:
    5.  Go to your Music>iTunes folder and delete the "iTunes Library.itl" database file
    6.  Within this iTunes folder find and open the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder and locate the most recently dated "iTunes Library (date).itl" database file.
    7.  Copy and Paste this file back into the iTunes folder
    8.  Rename this "iTunes Library (date).itl" file by removing the date.  It should say "iTunes Library.itl"
    9.  Reboot PC

  • After installing the most recent iTunes update/version iTunes will no longer run on my PC.  I receive a window with the Microsoft error code R6034

    After installing the most recent iTunes update/version iTunes will no longer run on my PC (Windows 7).  I receive multiple error windows with the Microsoft error code R6034.  Microsoft's Help site states that this error occurs when a driver attempts to access the C++ library without a "Manifest".  I do not know what a manifest is, but apparently any attempt to directly access the C++ library is not permitted.  The site instructs the viewer to contact the application developer.

  • Suitcase Fusion won't open after installing the 10.5.8 update - Solution

    This is a bit of an open and shut post as I've found the solution, but it's a bit obscure so thought I'd stick it up here in case anyone else had this problem.
    After installing the 10.5.8 update, Suitcase Fusion (am using v12.1.7) would bounce once in the dock and then abort. I called Applecare (who had surprisingly not heard of this Application) and they suggested moving the com.extensis.suitcase.plist preferences file to the desktop and restarting my Mac (essentially resetting Suitcase Fusion).
    No joy.
    I didn't feel that re-installing Suitcase Fusion was going to do any good, so said thank you and went back to scouring Google …and lo, the solution was there all along…
    The problem had something to do with the *Bonjour Name* of my Mac. Apparently, if you have any special characters in your *Computer Name* or if it exceeds 20 characters, then this causes a problem with the *Bonjour Name* and then consequently with Suitcase Fusion …simples.
    See? …told you it was obscure.
    Solution:
    1. Open *System Preferences > Sharing*
    2. Change the *Computer Name* to something shorter with no spaces or special characters, something like MyName-MacBookPro
    (NB. If you're not logged in as an Admin user, you'll need to click the lock and enter a password first)
    3. Click Edit… to ensure that the .local name is the same
    4. Close *System Preferences* and restart your Mac
    And Bob's your Uncle, that should do the trick :o)

    That may be, but I didn't find it without considerable digging. And neither Applecare nor Extensis had heard of the problem/solution.
    Just thought it would be helpful, that's all.

  • Stability issues after installing the Java SE 6 update on Leopard

    Hi, I have my macbook pro freeze once and not properly wake up from sleep twice after opening the lid within the last two days, and this started happening after I installed the Java SE 6 update over the weekend. In the case of freeze, I had to to a hard reboot. In the other two cases, the macbook comes alive after opening the lid but the display stays blank. I need to close the lid and open a few more times to have the display come back on. In all the cases, I was running Word 2008, which has its own set of bugs (esp. with the spaces), but I wasn't experiencing this before the Java update. I have all the other updates installed as well (including the Safari update last week, the latest Office 2008 update of March, and the EFI firmware update a couple weeks ago).
    Does anyone have the same problem? Also, the jittery mouse pointer problem after wake from sleep, which used to occur occasionally since I first upgraded to leopard, seems to occur a lot more frequently now. The only solution to get the mouse pointer back to normal is a restart, which is quite annoying.

    Hi again, I found a solution to the nested folders problem. Apparently this was not due to Java... It was just a folder replicating itself over and over again. Still don't know the cause, but searching with Google I found this:http://forums.macnn.com/54/unix/156870/nesting-of-folders-problem/
    The command allowed me to find the folder and subsequently trash it. Everything seems to be fine right now. The disc utility does not report the "exceeded the recommended limit of 100 " error.

  • TS3824 My iMac won't wake from sleep after installing the most recent OS update.

    I'm having trouble with my iMac, the screen won't wake up after it goes to sleep. The one time it did the screen was all fuzzy and pink. This has only happened in the last few hours after installing the latest OS X Lion update. Is this normal? Can someone help?

    Hello, not normal.
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
    /private/var/run/StartupItems
    /Library/StartupItems
    /System/Library/StartupItems
    /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partitiion & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Permissions.
    Re-install if that doesn't work.

  • Has anyone encountered their iphone won't turn on after installing the 8.1.3 update?

    Has anyone else encountered this problem?  The update took about 15 minutes.  After the update the phone wouldn't turn back on. I hit the power button and a the iTunes logo appeared with a lightening cord, so i plugged into my pc to iTunes.  iTunes had a pop up telling me that I needed to restore the phone back to factory settings and I would lose all my data that isn't on icloud.  Before I hit restore, are there any other things that I should try?  I already tried hitting update again and it won't complete the update.

    The message is correct. Once you see the iTunes logo and the USB cord your iPhone must be restored. It has already lost all data stored on it. You can recover your data from a recent backup if you have one. You can recover all purchased music and apps without the backup. When I updated our 2 iPhones, I backed each of them up to iTunes before updating just in case. I recommend that you do this before you do any future updates.

  • IChat video is not working after installed the 10.6.4 update

    Hi. I'd like to know, how to solve the problem for my iChat video that has stopped working after I installed the latest update. I dunno what's the problem but it shows that, when I clicked on the preferences for iChat on the Audio/Video, I got "This computer does not support video chats". But that thing is, my iSight camera's working just fine, even the indicator's also lighted up. Is there any solution to this?
    I would really appreciate it.
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Daniel.

    Hi,
    The camera can only be used by one App at a time (unless you have certain Add-ons).
    However if it works in other applications and not iChat I would check that the Video Menu > Camera Enabled is ticked.
    This, if unticked, is the camera Off.
    IF you have just done the 10.6.4 update I would Repair Permissions as well.
    Try rebooting the computer.

  • Multiple servers hung on reboot after installing the following April 2014 Updates. Anyone else?

    We installed the following updates last night via WSUS.  All of our Windows 2012 R2 servers rebooted but then stuck with the swirling logo and never booted back in to Windows.  We had to power them off and back on again.
    Anyone else find issues with these patches and experience this?  This was consistent.  We are running Vsphere 5.5 u1.
    - Security Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2922229)  
    - Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2939087)  
    - Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool for Windows 8, 8.1 and Windows Server 2012, 2012 R2 x64 Edition - April 2014 (KB890830)
    - Rules Update for RRAS Best Practice Analyzer for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2928193)
    - Security Update for Internet Explorer 11 for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2936068)

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    I am trying to involve someone familiar with this topic to further look at this issue. There might be some time delay. Appreciate your patience.
    Regards.
    Vivian Wang
    Hello and thank you.  I was able to narrow this down to KB2939087 and reproduce.
    Only our IIS servers, and domain controllers had the problem.  Vanilla 2012 R2 servers did not hang on boot up.
    We installed VIA WSUS and the servers automatically rebooted OK and installed OK but upon boot up they got stuck at the swirling logo and stayed their indefinately until we hard reset them and powered them back up.  There no nothing in the event whatsoever
    to indicate a problem.
    Kind of a big deal to have to babysit all of these servers and hard reset them after installing this update via WSUS.

  • After installing the 10.8.3 update I can no longer use my scanner

    I just updated my MacBook Pro to 10.8.3.  When I try to open my scanner, I get a blank window with disabled "Hide Overview", "Overview", and "Scan" buttons.  Anyone else have similar problems?  I'm getting pretty frustrated with these updates.  Apple is beginning to look a lot lot Microsoft.
