Hello tambokobee,



Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that you are having issues activating a device. Is this an iOS device that currently has iCloud activation lock enabled on it? If so, you’ll want to contact the previous owner to unlock the device:

Additionally, you can check if a device is currently locked to an account with this link:

Otherwise, if this is an iPhone that you need help activating with your carrier, please see this resource:

Cheers,


Matt M.
