We are unable to complete your activation at this time
Greetings,
Today @ around 4:30PM PST on 4/20/11, right after doing the update to my iPhone4 to 4.3.2, from within iTunes I'm getting the following error, "We are unable to complete your activation at this time."
Is anyone else experiencing similar issues today? wondering if perhaps the activation server is down or something of the sorts.
Thanks.

Just called customer support for iPhone's, the technician confirmed theactivation servers are down for maintenance, Seems odd since 4:00PM on aWednesday seems like a HORRIBLE time to do server maintenance.
It's more likely that the maintenance is to fix whatever problem caused the servers to crash

Hi David,

I'm experiencing the same issue and I see that you're also posting from China. Not sure is location-related but if you managed to activate you iPhone: how did you do it? Just keep on trying?
I'm a bit fed up of trying. It's already two full days...
Thanks, ciao.

the strange thing is my last login shows September 11, 2014, even though i have logged in today and previous days after this date.Your login procedure sounds different from mine.
Try this link:

If you put your userid in the box provided, then select My Services on the pull down, then click on Sign In, and then enter your password to continue, does the problem still occur? -

I am tryhing to activate my new Ipad and am haveing no luck. I am hardwried tomy computer, have insured that I have the latest version of ITunes but when I turn the unit on, I can get through the language and the country selection, select "connect to ITunes" , after a minute or two, get an error message "Unable tocontunue with your activation at this time" I have been screwing around with this for several hours now and am beginning to think I have a $650 piece of junk
Hmm, well... iTunes trys to activate your iPod using the Apple server to make sure you have bought it legit.
Two things come into my mind:
1) Your iTunes can't access the internet.
2) Apples activation servers are down.
That's just my cents, maybe anyone else has an idea. -
when i try to activate itunes on my iphone it continues to say "We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time." and now my phone has stuck. what happened?
Hello mzpartia,
I found an article from Apple that specifically outlines how to try and troubleshoot this issue. It's called iPhone: Troubleshooting activation issues found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3424.
Resolution
Perform 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 Wi-Fi 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 Applefor assistance.
Take care,

Attempting to restore Iphone 3 to factory deafalut, to finish "unlocking" the Iphone 5.
Moving the phone from one cellular carrier to another (in this case Rogers to Bell in Canada).
Rogers "unlocked" the phone on their end for $50.00, sent an email to Apple requesting serial # to be released from their network, and to provide "unlocked" status.
Next step was to restore phone to "factory default" in I tunes, and wait for phone to reset and show "unlocked" status.
Upon phone resetting in Itunes, after the "factory default", received the following error message"
"we are sorry, we are unable to unable to continue with activation at this time Please try again, or contact customer service".
I contacted Apple customer service whom confirmed that the phone is showing as "unlocked" in their system.
New carrier that I am attempting to hook phone up states that the phone is still locked.
What is the solution or workaround?Hello mzpartia,

i update my 3gs to 6.1 from 4.1 after installation of software it shows connect to itunes or connect to wi-fi when i connect it to itunes it shows the iphone tab in itunes bt after some times it say we are unable to complete your request please help me
That would be the wireless number assigned by AT&T when the purchaser of the iPhone signed up as a customer with AT&T. If neither you nor your uncle ever activated the iPhone with AT&T, click the "non customer" button.
Note that jailbreaking often renders it impossible to get an iPhone officially unlocked, so don't be surprised if it fails. If it does, then you may have to buy a new iPhone, this time one that is officially unlocked.

Ask the person who owns the iPhone.
Which version of Cydia appears on the iPhone - the one
with the black and white icon or a different one?
If it was jailbroken, contact the developers of the jailbreak.
Not all jailbreaks can be completely removed.
Google may provide some direction. -
Mi iphone is not we're unable to complete your activation ios 5.1
we're unable to complete your activation ios 5.1
Can you specify where exactly in the activation process you are getting stuck? For example: with a new phone after connecting to a network.
I assume you are using the iPhone 4 for development? Since the current latest version shipped is the 5.0.1. Version 5.1 is still in a Beta 3 phase. -
