Won't activate after ios7

help

Hope this helps!
So, I had my problem solved!! (afhter installing the iOS7 iTunes didin't recognized my device and the "Connect to iTunes" image appeared, there was nothing that I tought would helped me...until)
What I did was to change the USB port from where my iPhone was first connected, after this iTunes recognized my device saying it was in "Recovery Mode" which is ok, so what I did was to press the "recover" button and then my iPhone started to recover from iOS7! Just follow the steps there.
Then I restore my previous version with iTunes (iTunes will say "Wellcome to your new iPhone"), so I can have all my data back on since my last backup, the restore took certain time but after that I was good to go with my iPhone 5 with the new iOS7.
Hope this helps!!!

TS1717 my iphone 4s won't activate after updating to ios 7?

my iphone 4s won't activate after updating to ios 7?

Same here. I heard of some way to bypass the activation but it was patched .

4s won't reboot after ios7 update. I have restored 4 times. Every time it gets stuck on Apple icon with update bar at 10%

4s won't reboot after ios7 update. I have restored 4 times. Every time it gets stuck on Apple icon with update bar at 10%
HELP!

That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...

IPhone won't activate after updating to iOS7... even after connecting to iTunes...

my iOS7 wouldn't budge after updating so I performed the silly mistake of doing a system restore. It updated but now my iPhone won't activate! Do you think it's the servers? I'm perfectly connected to my wifi and my phone is connected to iTunes!

Yeah... Thanks! It finally managed to pull through... ugh... was getting slightly worried because I needed it for something important at the moment... but thankfully it's okay now.

Powerbuilder won't activate after upgrade

We currently have PowerBuilder 12.5 installed on a Windows XP machine. This was licensed and activated properly. So we tried to install 12.5.2 on a new Windows 7 machine. After upgrade, when I ran Powerbuilder, it came up as unlicensed (or as evaluation version). I went to the SAP site and regenerated a new license key for my machine and applied it, but it just won't activate. There are three options for us to choose:
New System
Display System
Edit System
We first tried the 'New System' option since it is an upgrade to 12.5.2 on a new machine (which we intend to move to). However, the option for us to choose from the 'Product version' or 'System Type' simply won't show any drop down option for us to choose, nor does it allow us to enter. Hence, we tried the 'Display System' and downloaded the license to update license. It just won't activate.
Has anybody ran into this issue and how was it solved?

Hi All,
I finally got a response from Nina who gave me the instruction on how to upgrade. I followed the instruction to 'Edit System' instead of 'New System', and not use IE. The reason I could not see drop down was due to IE 11 (have to use IE9 or before). Now my PowerBuilder 12.5.2 was upgraded successfully.
Thanks all, especially Nina.
Regards

New iPad won't activate after resetting

iPad won't activate thru iTunes after erasing all content and settings. iPad is back at the Welcome screen like when it was new, but go thru iTunes to set it up and no activation.

Can't activate by signing in.
I can't even get to that point. After I enter a wifi password the iPad goes to activate and that's where everything stops with: Can not activate a this time. Please try again later. I've tried a million and 6 times, there is no later...
Also noticed that the serial# listed for the iPad in iTunes is N/A. After a few minutes of trying it gives me the above message. It also shows a lock near the message in iTunes. This shows that somehow the iPad is still locked after I erased all data and wanted to completely start from scratch?

IPhone 4S Won't Charge After iOS7 Update

After installing ios7 update my phone fails to charge properly.
When on: plug in charger : 'this device may not be supported' --- my option? 'dismiss'
on every plug in this message appears.
When off: battery icon appears when charger is plugged in, after 3 seconds fades to black, on pressing home button it shows battery icon again.
I've tried all solutions provided to me by phone technical support, no help.
My phone currently charges to 3-5% when left off, comes back to life when turned on, but doesn't hold charge for more than 5 min and dies.
When plugged into mac/itunes everything works exept charging.
I've tried other cables/chargers, nothing
Also no longer supports my fm car transmiter that I purchased 'this device may not be supported' --- my option? 'dismiss'
The reason for buing an iphone was to have my music on the go and be able to play it/record my creative ideas: now it has become a paper weight and source of frustration.
I will be taking it in to an apple dealer today to check if its a hardware issue, but there have been no hardware problems or any damage before or after ios7 instal.
Questions:
how do i get it to charge? how do i get it to support my purchased iphone accesories?

I have a similar problem. I have an iPhone 4s that was working perfectly. Almost immediately upon upgrading to iOS7 I noticed that the battery began to drain much quicker. This morning when I tried to recharge the battery it would not recharge. I followed brad805's suggestions. When I took it to the Genius Bar they attempted to remove the battery and directly power the phone from a cable and that did not work. The phone is now completely dead and because it is past the one year warranty period, there is little that the people at the Apple Store can do to help me. I took very good care of the phone when I owned it and there were no incidents to the phone in the time since I upgraded to iOS7. I strongly believe that the upgrade to iOS7 is the contributing factor to this phone failure.
Is there a mechanism to register a complaint with Apple? I understand that phones fail from time to time but based on the posts I am seeing on the internet, I fear that there are additional instances like mine.

HT4623 Why wont my Iphone 5 activate after IOS7 update

My phone won't activate, even though I updated through Itunes though and no its like something is wrong with my network?

Just have to give it some time. The activation and verification servers are all slammed right now 'cause of all the people trying to update at the same time. Give it a couple hours (or overnight if you can wait) and it should sort itself out.

4S won't activate after iOS 5.1 update

Updated yesterday.
Update finished but my iphone 4s keeps asking me for configuration and won't activate.
I select the wireless network. Connection is fine. Even SIM unlock happens.
It says it is OK to use it now. I click on it and it returns back to configure screen again.
It is in a loop.
Configure-You can use it-Configure-You can use it-Configure and on and on.
I restored the iphone using iTunes but no lock. If I restore it from backup or icloud backup the situation is the same.
If I set it up as new iphone I can open it but this time I loose everything.
I have backups but I cannot use the phone if I install them.
This is really frustrating.
Can I get back to 5.01 somehow. I want to use my phone and I don't want to lose my data.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

The backup you have does matter (icloud or itunes. The moment you restore from it, you are in the loop. I don't know if Siri has anything to do with it or not but mine was off.
I talked to Apple for 50 minutes. We tried many things, no joy. The last words were that there were more people like us and if the number were enough Apple would develop and publish an update. What they suggested is to wait until the update is released, install the update and then make the restore from backup. It would work then.
Please call Apple and create a case. We need numbers.
I hope they take us seriously and correct this grave mistake as soon as possible.
For those who have iCloud backup, the following works:
Set the phone up as new device.
Go to Settings and iCloud.
Enter your iCloud account.
It will ask if you would like to merge.
If you say yes, you could at least get your contacts back.

FaceTime and iMessage won't activate after update to 5.0.1

My ipad with retina display won't charge after ios7. I have purchased a new cord and adapter but it won't charge at all or even recognize that it's plugged in most of the time. Help!!

My iPad is less than a year old, still under the one year limited warranty, though since I don't know the exact problem, I don't know if my problem is covered. I have spoken to AppleCare agents 3 times, during all of which my conversation was cut off. In my last conversation I was told to do a complete reset, which I have now done. Problem is, I am now stuck on the set-up screen, as I cannot get above a 2% charge, meaning that my ipad cuts off long before I'm able to do a restore using iTunes, iCloud or even set it up as a new device. So, basically, I now have a $600 coaster... and I'm not happy about that. Especially since I'm nowhere near an Apple Store. I also bought the iPad at Wal-Mart, which I guess was a mistake, because once 30 days have passed, they couldn't care less about helping me. What do I do now? And please, don't throw a bunch of technical jargon at me.. I won't understand it and it'll just frustrate us both if I try. Thanks!
p.s. I'm not 100% sure what OS it currently has, though I do believe I was able to update it to 7.0.3 or possibly 7.0.4 through iTunes, though I can't check it now.
p.p.s. I have always used the charging cord and wall adapter that came with the device to charge it. When this problem first occurred, I also purchased new, exact replicas of both of these, which, obviously, made no difference.

That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.

IPad won't start after iOS7 upgrade and reset

Hi,
I have just tried to upgrade to iOS7 through WiFi. No luck. So I upgraded via iTunes. When it finally was finished, I tried to turn on my iPad, but it wouldn't. It gets stuck at the Apple logo with a loading bar just under it. I did a full reset on iTunes and I can only get to the loading bar (which won't load).. Any suggestions?

I was experiencing the same thing. This article worked for me, hopefully it will help you.

Hold both the home button and the wake/suspend button down at the same time. You should see the Apple logo appear on your screen after holding these buttons down a couple of seconds, which means your iPad is booting up and should be good to go in a few more seconds.
