There are several possible reasons for this error:

  • Apple's Activation Servers truly are down. Rare, but it happens. You can check at: http://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/
  • Your antivirus or firewall is blocking access to Apple's servers
  • Your phone is jailbroken, or was jailbroken at some time in the past
  • The computer you are using was used to jailbreak or hack some iOS device at some time in the past (not necessarily the device with the problem), and its network database hosts file was corrupted.


For the last 2 you are on your own. If you are going to hack your phone, you should know what you are doing. There are sites that will help you.
