I hate how they use their arrogance to say they can pull this off in one day, iOS updates should come by regions...

just so they could avoid their servers crash, their IT team will probably won't sleep for a week

iPad finished up but my iPhone keeps getting the failure notice.

 

[adamj575]

so how exactly can I activate my phone other than just keep trying?...this is ridiculous, I cant even use my phone now!

 

[EmpireRyan]

I had a couple failed attempts, but I finally got it downloaded and installed. Once it got going I just sat the phone down and let it do it's thing.

activation is post-update not prior

Oh sorry this post was in regards to activation.

Till their server load reduces traffic... or till they feel like working on it

 

[adamj575]

[ValerieDurden]

"It may take a few minutes to activate your iPhone." baaahahahahaha you mean a few HOURS of hitting "Try Again"

Damn I updated within 10 mins of launch

Now I wiped the device to set it up from new and the activation servers are down

Exactly what I did as I was jailbroken on 6.1.2 so I wanted a fresh install.

 

[PaulOBrain]

Having this issue too, hit try again loads of times.

Hit it tonnes of times, just gone through as I've typed this reply haha.

 

[jlluna]

It took me about 12 tries! Finally went through.

 

[ValerieDurden]

With the amount of money that Apple has this shouldn't be happening.
