Hi few days ago I bought a second hand iphone 5 white 64 gb, and when I try to activate it I see the following message: "This iPhone can not be activated for service.please contact your carrier or AppleCare"
So then do what it says...contact Apple or your wireless carrier.
However your phone is probably locked to another carrier and cannot be used on yours. -
i have recieved an iPhone 4 32 gb MC605X/A from a friend in Australia and it is factory unlocked as you know the new iphone need to be activated i hvae connected my phone to itunes and it says" there was a problem please contact support ".
i have searched all the Apple site for a solution and got nothing i intend to contact support and as you know it needs a Serial number or IMEI , i have entered both and the same result " Our records indicate that this product has been replaced. Please provide the serial number for your replacement product to find the support and warranty coverage information. For more information, please contact us." and i have been in the same circle for about two weeks , please help me .
by the way the nearest apple care center is two countries away .You have a phone that was returned as defective. How it got into the market again is anyone's guess, but the ONLY way to resolve it is to call Apple, and that may not resolve it either if it was pilfered by someone at an Apple repair center.

I have an I Phone 4s, 16K. IOS 8.1 (I think, although I can't check it on my phone) that apparently is associated with my old email address that I no longer have access to and my phone says connect to I Tunes to activate.
How can I activate my phone? How can i disassociate my phone from the old email address and associate it with the new one?Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security - Apple Support

<Edited By Host>That means your phone is now a brick. Congratulations.
That's a risk you take when you decide to hack the phone.
You can't get any help here. Discussing hacked and jailbroken devices is forbidden by the terms of service.
Maybe you can find something on google that will help you. -
i bought an iphone 3g but not in a shop and when i turn it on it tells me your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is unavailable what can i do to just have it working legit ?? , please anyone that could help me out
Generally, that means the phone has been jailbroken (hacked). You can try restoring it as new using iTunes. Beyond that, there's really nothing we can advise as jailbroken phones can't be supported on these forums.

Typically this indicates a device that has been hacked to be unlocked or jailbroken.
If that is the case, no support can be provided here. -
iPhone could not be activated because activation server is temporarily unavailable. this is now the third day and nothing improves please help. iTunes says my sim is locked but I can't unlock it
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?
Unauthorized modification of iOS

I have a factory unlocked Iphone 4S, it worked fine but it was often lossing signal and going into search, I decided to restore, but now can not activate it, a message can not be activated because the server is temporary unavailable try again later, I have tried this for 3 days, any suggestions?
yes did you buy it of somebody or a well known company such as apple or carphone warehouse?
and i mean the phone would have been activated in the first place with the sim card you get given when you first get the phone.
trying to activate the phone with another sim card that you did not get when you brought the phone may result in you not being able to activate it
no worries -

Your IPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. I have been to Telstra store 3 times and into the Mac Pro store where i am today
No one is able to help me unless i go to melb sydney or Brisbane!
Any help would be so very much appreciatedThat is almost always because the phone was hacked to unlock it from the original carrier.
