The iPad you connected is not recognized and cannot be activated for servic
Hi there,
Today I've received a replacement iPad (from Apple), and surprise surprise, when I connected it to iTunes for proceed with the initial setup, the following message arised
We're sorry, the iPad you connected is not recognized and cannot be activated for service.
We recommend you visit your nearest Apple Store for more information.
I've contacted with my local apple support, and they told me to try to reinstall the iPad entering in DFU mode. I did it twice, and both times the procedure went perfectly but once finished the above message appeared once again.
They have told me to send it once again for repair, but, someone knows how to resolve this ? I've sent my previous iPad ten days ago, and now, I will have to wait other ten and I'm a little bit dissapointed.
Well, thanks in advance and merry christmas for all of you.

They should pay to overnight pickup and overnight delivery back to you since it's their screwup. Ask them!

My problem is after i did a restore on my 32gb ipod touch i now get a error on itunes that says "There is a problem with your device,We're sorry the device you connected may be damaged and cannot be activated for service. " Please help
In the ipad discussion forums there apparently is a HUGE problem with people not being able to update to ios 4.3.3, it apparently locks up their devices and they are also getting the error "there is a problem with your device".... some are reporting the same problem with their ipod touch as well... it looks like it's a global issue
The forum is in the ipad section under the title of "There is a problem with your device".
I have dodged a bullet on this one since i have not updated my ipod's or ipad in the last couple of days.... i will hold off syncing to itunes until this issue is fixed... good luck, and spread the word if you can to get apple to listen -

Itunes says iphone is not recognized and cannot be activated for service
I have had some trouble trying to restore my iphone and recently I was asked to restore it again because the phone could not make or receive calls. After restoring my iphone I got this message on itunes and now I can only use the phone for emergency calls. Can anyone please help me?
I am not sure which model it is, I know it is an old one.
Thanks!I reccomend a re-install of Apple Mobile Device components. This has happened to me with my iPod Touch before.
Apple has now echoed this advice in a Knowledge Base document (#306637) specifically for the issue where the iPhone or iPod Touch is not recognized by the host computer. This can be accomplished by the following platform-specifc processes
Mac OS X
Delete the following files
/System/Library/Extensions/AppleMobileDevice.kext
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DeviceLink.framework
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileDevice.framework
/Library/Receipts/AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg
then re-installing the latest version of iTunes.
Windows XP
Quit iTunes and disconnect the iPhone
Go to the Start menu, thenthe Control Panel and open Administrative Tools, then Services.
Select "Apple Mobile Device" then "Stop the service."
After it is stopped, click "Start the service."
Connect the iPhone again, launch iTunes and check for recognition.
Windows Vista
Quit iTunes and disconnect the iPhone
Go to "Start," then search for "Services"
In Programs, click "Services".
Select "Apple Mobile Device" then "Stop the service."
After it is stopped, click "Start the service."
Connect the iPhone again, launch iTunes and check for recognition. -

'Iphone may be damaged and cannot be activated for service'
Ive just bought a used iphone4. it arrived having been cleared and reset.
I connected to itunes and upgraded to the new software. Then it worked for half a day. Then a message came up saying i need ot restore the phone.
So i plugged it in again and at the end of the uprgrade sequence it comes up with-
'Problem with the iphone - may be damaged and cannot be activated for service' - please visit apple store.
Its obviously out of warranty and the apple store is a long way away. Ive only had it a day and im assured its never been jailbroken, dropped or water damaged.
I know loads of people have had this message come up and people have recommened going to the apple store. But before i make the long trek i just wanted to know if anyone ever came up with a solution to fix this and use the phone again.
Any help much appreciated. back on sh+tty blackberry!!Thanks for the replies guys!
I cant access the phone it just stays on 'connect to itunes'
Could someone quickly explain how jailbraking an iphone could cause it problems? I want to email the person I bought this from and tell them why I think they have damaged it by jailbraking it.
I really appreciate this help bacuase ive shelled out £160 for this paperweight, Thanks. -

I have tried all I can to load iTunes cards into my iPad without success. Upon giving one of the cards to a friend he conveniently loaded. I keep getting the error message: "The code you entered is not recognized as a valid code". I just don't know what to do as I need to use these cards to make purchases off the I tunes store.
i tried with out using commmit but it is not creating Status.
When i see the function module help and they are trying to COMMIT
FU STATUS_OBJECT_CREATE
Short Text
Create Status Object
Functionality
The function module generates a status object.
Take the object number from the object number management (function modules OBJECT_NUMNBER_GET_xx).
If no object number is given, the module takes a temporary object number that must be replaced later (function module STATUS_OBJECT_SWITCH_NUMBER).
Example
Creating an internal order with number 100123 (object type "ORC") for status profile "STATSCHEM" with final object number
call function 'OBJECT_NUMBER_GET_OR'
exporting
aufnr = '100123'
importing objnr = objektnummer.
call function 'STATUS_OBJECT_CREATE'
exporting
objnr = objektnummer
obtyp = 'ORC'
stsma = 'STATSCHEM'.
commit work.
Creating the same order with a temporary object number
data: objectkey like ionra.
* TBO00-REFSTRUCT for object type 'OR' is 'IONRA'
objectkey-aufnr = '100123'.
call function 'STATUS_OBJECT_CREATE'
exporting
i_objectkey = objectkey
obtyp = 'ORC'
stsma = 'STATSCHEM'.
importing
objnr = objektnummer.
call function 'OBJECT_NUMBER_GET_OR'
exporting
aufnr = '100123'
importing objnr = objektnummer_neu.
call function 'STATUS_OBJECT_SWITCH_NUMBER'
exporting
objnr_old = objektnummer
objnr_new = objektnummer_neu.
commit work.

i got an itunes giftcard for my birthday and when i tried to add it on my balance on my ipod touch it says the code you entered is not recognized as a valid code. but i just got this card brand new for my birthday.
Make sure you're using the correct code. For most iTunes cards, the code is under the scratchoff area on the back of the card. For more information, see this support article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292
If you can't get to work after perusing that page, contact the iTunes Store Support; instructions are at the bottom of that article.
