temporarily unavailable 5 c (Sprint) iPhone activation server
I just bought an iPhone Sprint 5 c to a friend when he upgraded. The telephone service and everything worked well, he took his iCloud and reset for me. However, during the installation process, it refuses to turn on and I can't use the phone. The error reads: "your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is currently unavailable.". I've been through this configuration 50 times intant connected to iTunes, restored 3 times (for iOS 9.2.1), removed the SIM card and handed to, I tried clean Apple support for activation problems, the works page. Sprint said to contact Apple, but the phone is obviously more warranty and he even had a few cracks. I highly doubt that they would replace the unit under these conditions. What can I do to make it work? I am currently on a phone entirely and would appreciate any help as soon as possible. Thanks in advance!

Trying to activate an unlocked iphone 4S I get the message that the iphone could not be enabled because the server is temporarily unavailable?
very rarely the activation server is busy.
that message usually means that your phone has been hacked or jailbroken to unlock and when you update the iOS it locked at the origin of the phone.
Only the carrier that the phone is locked is allowed to unlock.

Downloaded the new software 9.3 on IPhone without a problem, for IPad 2, it says: your IPad could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable.
Tells me to connect to ITunes to activate, when I do that, it says Apple does not recognize the device. This has happened for hours. Any clue whats going on?
It is more likely to occur when a major update of iOS was recently released, because so many people seek to activate at the time, and sometimes the Apple servers get overloaded. Try again in a few moments, and maybe a reboot of the strength of your iPad.
To force the reboot:
Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple start-up logo appears.

iPad2 will not be 'activate' after update-"activation server is temporarily unavailable."
IOS downloaded again today for my ipad2, but not "activate", tried several times during the last hours 7, get message ' could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable, try to connect your iPad to iTunes "but can't do it because I can't use the device! I've never had problem in the 3 years I've owned the device.
When they say connect to iTunes that they intend to use iTunes on a computer to try to restore the device. He has worked for some.

Or you could wait it out and see if Apple fixes things.

I have an iPad 2 and before executing the last IOS 9.3 update, it was a camera works perfectly well. I don't have any iCloud upward. I have the valuable photos and info on my iPad that I don't want to lose! Now I can't even use it! He failed to activate after the execution of the update and is now in an infinite loop.
The display shows the following:Could not active iPad. Your iPad could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try to connect your iPad to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple if minutes. If the problem persists, contact Apple support. .... Try Again... and again...
I was 'Try again' for four days and spent a day at the Apple Genius Bar store. They could not find a "fix" and suggested I send my iPad in California and pay for data recovery, because the next step would be to wipe my iPad! ***!
I understand that you're angry about the issue of server activation, but sittuations as why it is so important to backup your data using iTunes or iCloud. You never know when you might have to restore from a backup.

Received error msg after trying to upgrade to the latest version of the software for the iPad.
Your iPad could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable.
What is the problem have never had a problem with the update of the software before.
There is a problem known/glitch with Apple activation servers.
Apple, I think, has recognized and acknowledged this problem with difficulties with some models of iPad activation server and have stated that they are working on this issue and it will be resolved as soon as possible.
I hope more early.

iPhone 6
Network: Verizon
iOS 9.3.3
Twice now, once in Costa Rica in April and, more recently, in Ireland, while that phone overseas warning reads as follows:
"your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is not reachable. Try to connect your phone to the iPhone to activate it, or try again in a few minutes. If the problem persists contact Apple Support to Apple.com/support. »
or:
"The SIM card that you have currently installed in the phone is a carrier that is not supported in the title of the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This isn't a problem with the hardware with the iPhone. Please insert another card from a supported carrier SIM or ask this iPhone be unlocked by your operator. Please contact Apple for more information. »
My carrier is Verizon and I replaced the SIM card on my return from Costa Rica end of April despite the fact that the card is unlocked and good, in theory, for international travel,
Before you activate the phone is locked and I can't access applications like camera, that, when I travel, I need over the phone.
Apple says call Verizon. Verizon said, you guessed it, call Apple.
When I return to the States, everything works fine. I thought that the replacement of a SIM card would do the trick, so you can imagine my dismay when the activation warning came after I took the phone off airplane mode after I landed in Dublin and the activation warning came new.
What is going on?

I think it's a problem with Verizon.
Our company is on AT & T - and our lawyer have travel all over the world, Africa, London, South East Asia and they have never complained to me than before.
