Unable to activate my iPhone
how to remove a device from a previous owner's Apple ID i cant activate and use it
Try Settings > General > Reset > Erase all Content and Settings. It may take a while depending on how much stuff is on the iPhone itself.

I am unable to activate my iphone 3gs after updating ios 6.1.3
i am unable to activate my iphone 3gs after updating ios 6.1.3?
The activation servers were down for a bit yesterday.
Try again.
A SIM is required for activation. If problems continue, the two most common activation issues are the result of a hacked or jailbroken device. -

00923320345233FYI, no one here works for Apple. We are all users like yourself.
Activation issues are typically the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken to unlock. Is that the case? If so, no help can be provided via these forums. -

Unable to activate your iPhone Developer Program membership
Hi everyone.
A few days ago I bougth an iPhone Developer membership. A mail arrived at my inbox, confirming that my membership was ready, and I followed the link. However, the webpage gave me an error:

We are unable to activate your iPhone Developer Program membership because we are unable to successfully verify your identity. Please contact us and reference Enrollment ID# ******** for further assistance.

I already contacted Apple support, but I haven’t received a response yet. Can someone tell me what’s wrong with my membership?
thanks.Then you'll just have to wait. People without a Social Security number or FEIN generally have to wait a lot longer given the fact that Apple is an American company.

IOS7 update - unable to activate your iPhone
I have tried atleast 10 times now either over the air or through iTunes in the past 4 hours, always getting the same response 'unable to activate your iPhone, connection was reset.' So thanks Apple, I really enjoy having a £500 paper weight.

Is your iPhone a Factory Unlocked iPhone or Locked to a Service Provider ?
Have you tried Restoring your iPhone by taking your device in Recovery Mode ?

HT4623 having the message " activation required" and i am unable to activate my iphone 4
I got up from bed on sunday and got the message " software expired" on my Iphone 4. I switched it off and on and got the message "activation required". Since my wireless connection is slow, I tried using iTunes on my laptop to restore my phone to factory settings but till today i have been unable to get my Iphone on.
Can some one help me on how to go about it?
YuvenThe phone is carrier locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use. Contact the carrier it's locked to to find out what their unocking policy is.
If you purchased it from Carphone Warehouse in the UK, they do NOT sell unlocked phones. The phones they sell will only activate on a UK carrier and will lock to the first UK carrier used. -
Unable to activate my iPhone 5
I received my iPhone 5 in the mail today and I'm unable to activate the device. When I walk through the setup and I get to the activate screen, there is a different phone number that is displayed and it's not a number on my account. I've also attempted activation with iTunes and still will not work, anyone have any ideas?
I've spoken with support and had my case escalated but no help as of yet. Anyone have any ideas?Nope
it did happened to me last year.
I spoke with Customer Service and they let me speak with the one who actually send me a new phone with the package that i can also return the wrong one.
It is from China and some hardworking worker makes a mistake.
