how to activate iphone after restore

Hey there Raviku,
It sounds like your phone is not activating after a recent restore. I recommend the steps from the article named:
iPhone: Troubleshooting activation issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3424
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.
Additional Information
If you are asked to enter a password to proceed with activating the iPhone, Activation Lock may be enabled as part of Find my iPhone.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

  • HT1414 I can not sync my iPhone after restoring it - my computer only gives me the restore (again and again and again) option.  I have no music and only a few aps now on my iPhone.  Any tips before I go to the genius bar?

    If you restored as new, without using a backup, and still only get an option to restore, there is a hardware problem or the phone was previously hacked (jailbroken, downgraded iOS, unauthorized unlock).  Your only option is to take it to Apple or whoever provides iPhone service in your country.

  • TS1559 My Iphone 4S with the latest software, wifi setting is grayed out. Could not be resolved even after restore software in Itune.

    My Iphone4S wifi setting was grayed off and could not set wifi on even after I have reset network setting and also restore software from Itune.

    Hi YKLeong,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you may have tried all the steps in the article below. If your wi-fi setting is still grayed out after trying the steps, the article suggests contacting Apple support for help with your iPhone hardware:
    iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Verify that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
    Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Note: This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
    Ensure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
    If your issue is still unresolved, perform a software restore in iTunes.
    Additional Information
    If you are still unable to turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options.
    If you need to contact Apple, clicking the link above should take you to the right options for your region.
    Best Regards,

  • Could not activate the Iphone after updating

    I just update the software and after updating, it shows on the phone slide to set up, I did it and put all the information that is needed but unfortunately I could not activate the phone, did it many times...but it shows, iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. I tried even connecting to itunes to activate but still same result...The iphone was perfectly working before I update the software...what must i do now? help me please.

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone has been jailbroken or hacked.
    Google may provide some direction if this is the case.

    Apple stopped signing iOS 6. Though speaking now, I don't know if they stopped signing every iPhone..

  • HT201365 I can not activate the iPhone after restore ios 7

    I restore iphone 5 on ios 7 and I get these messages:
    "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection was reset" and this one "error 0x80090304".
    My network connection is good.
    I have tried restore again (even on 6.1.4), restarting, resetting my device and nothing.
    Is it possible that this is because I did not turned off Find my iPhone?
    Thanks

    Apple is working on the software updating servers so you need to wait!

    Not a good sign. Try forcing the phone into recovery mode & restoring it. If this fails, make an appointment at an Apple store:
    Turn your phone off. Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

  • TS1363 i could not activate my iphone 3G after updating to ios 6.0.1

    i could not activate my iphone 3G after updating to ios 6.0.1

    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.
    If the iPhone was advertised as unlocked and you are still within
    the return period, start a claim with eBay to get your money back.
    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?

    For contact [email protected]

    Sounds like the Activation Lock is still set to the previous owner. If you are unable to get that Apple ID and password that iPhone is totally useless to you.
    Take it back to the shop and demand your money back because they sold it to under false pretenses.

  • The last backup could not be completed - iPhone 5 after iOS 7 upgrade

    I'm using iPhone 5 & iPad with Retina Display.
    iCloud backup was used for both devices.
    Now everytime I try to backup manually, it says 'The last backup could not be completed.' after iOS 7 upgrade.
    Auto backup isn't working, either.
    I tried several things like backing up using iTunes then deleting previous backups then turnning iCloud backup again, or turning off Camera Roll in backup option , or holding the power button and home button to reset the device.
    None of them worked yet.
    What should I do?
    I just have noticed that I cannot find iPhone 5 among the products registered with my apple ID below before I was posting.
    Is it concerned with my apple ID or something? Not the devices?

    since i upgraded to iphone 6 have the same issus. that includ in my Ipad - probably something happened wiht the Apple ID.
    nothun is working/ and when i plug the divces to Itunes - it says that "Itunes coulnd not back up iphone/ipad an error accourd.
    can someone help me?!
    I deleted last backups and still nothing.
    i tried to backup with another authrized computer and other network and still nothing!
    thanks ahead!

  • I am unable to backup after months of successful backups.  Receive "iPhone could not backup the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone.

    I am unable to backup my iPhone4 (4.3.4) after months of successful backups.  Receive "iPhone could not backup the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone.  Followed advise on user forum to delete the old backup... did not help.  Need to do a backup.  Is there a cure?

    The only thing that resolved it for me was to COMPLETELY remove all Apple components per http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925.  I also downgraded to iTunes 10.3 since my issue didn't start until after the 10.4 update.  May not be related but oh well....You will have to restore your old iTunes Library file (*.itl) if you downgrade.

  • I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet "

    iTunes told me to delete my backup folder when I was having problems syncing my phone to my computer. After that it wouldn't work at all. After trying and trying I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet ". What the **** itunes? Nothing is working!!
    I wanted to update my iTunes so I could sync my phone to my computer and update my phones software so I can use the latest apps that need a 4.2 or higher.
    This is not fun for me so if anyone knows what I can do to fix this please help. Is it possible to download the "cabinent file" with the lastest iTunes?
    Thank you.

    My phone is the iPhone4 and my computer is a Windows Vista

    I doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
    Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction.

  • I could not get my iPhone 5 which purchased in Australia repaired by apple in the US. Guys from apple retail store verified a replacement for me and asked to call apple care. However, apple care said they cannot get it fixed nor repaired.

    My iPhone 5 got some defects and I went to a apple reatil store yesterday. The guy from the genius bar told me that he verified a replacement for me. And I need to call 1-800-apple care to finish that process. I called apple care and one of the senior supervisors told me that I have to send it back to Australia (where I bought this iPhone) to get it repaired. Turns out I could not solve the problem after a apple store vist and several calls. I just want to know if there any way to solve this. This iPhone is a factory unlocked one that purchased in an apple retail store in Melbourne at the day it was first released. And my experience today is not what I can tell as fair. I will be really appreciate for any helps and advices. Thanks.

    Warranty on iPhone is not international, but valid only in country of
    original sale. Since you purchased the iPhone in Australia, your warranty
    is valid only in Australia. You must either personally return the iPhone
    to Australia for evaluation and possible replacement or sent it to someone
    in Australia to take into Apple for the evaluation. Apple will not accept
    international shipments for repair nor will Apple ship out of the country
    after replacement.
    Sorry to be the bearer of this news, but it is the way iPhone warranty and
    replacement has always worked.
