Apparently, no one pays it... That's why they shut off your service. -
i just restore my iphone 4s white 16GB,
but its not letting me activate the iphone.
The messages is showing as below
"Could not activate iphone"
"Your iphone could not be activated beacause the activation server is temporarily unavailable.
Try connecting your iphone to iTunes to activate it. or try again in a couple of minutes."
"If this problem persists, contact Apple Support at apple.com/support"
and when i call in to tech support, they ask me to paid 19.99 to get a 30 day call in help.
But i dont think the problem is with my phone, it was fine before i did a restore of 6.1.3.
Please help!!So you were already running 6.1.3 and then restored the iPhone and got this message?
Was the iPhone jailbroken before you Restored it? If so, to truly clear it you need to put it in DFU mode and Restore it. If not, try a different SIM from AT&T and if that doesn't work make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store. -

could not activate iphone.....after restore.
Hello dar1000ex,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing after restoring your iPhone. I recommend the following steps:
Symptoms
Your iPhone may display one of the following messages when you attempt to activate it:
"Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable."
"The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported"
"The iPhone is not recognized and cannot be activated for service."
"iTunes was unable to verify your device."
ResolutionPerform the following steps if you receive one of the messages above:
Restart the iPhone.
Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
Restore the iPhone.
If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.

Could not activate iphone after restore, what should I do?
I decided to restore my iphone after the amount of "other" taking up my storage for the new update, however my iphone keeps saying "could not activate iphone" it keeps telling me to wait a few minutes which I have waited an hour now and it still won't work. I searched for solutions to this but I can't even restart my phone due to the lock button being broken. Any help would be much appreciated I really need my phone back
Authentication servers are ALSO slammed right now.
Give it some time.

my son did something to my iphone 3gs and now I get to a screen that says:
Could Not Activate IPhone
Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iphone to iTunes to activate it, or try in a couple of minuites. If this problem persists, contact Apple Support at apple.com/support.
It has continued for weeks, therefore asking if there is a solution to this?
Thanks.Hey Fletchdog55
I have the same problem on my 3GS. I took it to the apple store and was told that the Activation Server was down internationally and should be up in a week or so.
I've had this problem for over a week now and apple said the server went down yesterday so I'm not sure what to think. As far as I can see there is no solution except to wait. -

What model is your phone and what OS are you trying to install. iOS 7 can only be installed on certain phones.
Maybe someone knows the specifics? -

How to get past "could not activate iPhone" screen
Trying to wipe and start from scratch with an old iPhone 4 that I do not want to activate as a phone. How do I get past the "could not activate iPhone" screen? I did this once on my other old iPhone 4 and it worked without issue.
It's a Verizon/CDMA phone. If it has a SIM, it's likely not activated and never has been. Then again, same is likely true of my other iPhone. "Likely" as in I have no recollection of ever asking Verizon to activate the SIM.
Again, I don't WANT to activate it. I just want to use it like an iPod Touch.
