ITunes activation servers crash

As they comment on TUAW, iTunes servers are down and Apple is working on it to solve the problem so that users can activate the new 3G iPhones or update the firmware of the iPod Touchs quietly.

I myself have noticed this problem when I have tried - without success - update to iTunes 7.7 this afternoon.

The most serious consequence of this problem is that thousands of users (those who have preferred to activate at home) currently have in their hands a locked iPhone since they cannot activate it via iTunes.

    Well, what a grace!
    Above that you buy it, you cannot unlock it.
    Because in the store they can't do it or how is it going ???? You do it from your house !! ??

    I think it is the worst image that Movistar, Telefónica can give. A painful campaign and a lack of foresight for everything.

    Pathetic. tipical spanish.

    Spain is different

    Hello everyone, this morning I got an iPhone 3G in Granada, the truth is that it has not been difficult for me, and that I did not get up early, I went to Hipercor at around 10.45:XNUMX.
    The fact is that until 3 in the afternoon they did not give me my pot and that there were only 12.
    The fact is that here I am, at home, with the iPhone in the box, because it cannot be updated because the apple servers have hit it.
    Go with apple, what a botch. I have my gadget but I can't use it, damn it!

    Indeed, from 15:00 p.m., distributors could not access the itunes area, where they have access to unlock the terminal, because, for those who do not know it, the terminal is "capped" in such a way that only one Once the moviestar card is installed, the stores connect with iTunes and update the terminal to be able to use it, that is, without this "update" the terminal is not operational in any way, and as I said yesterday in another post, once "activated" and all the data have been put into the moviestar-apple application, the iphone receives 2 sms (in my case only 1 and it works) where you are welcomed and activated for normal use

    Well I guess this won't always be like this. The first days especially yesterday and Saturday 12 that being the first days of the Iphone for sale. Then I hope everything returns to normal!
    As long as I leave the store with the iPhone fully operational, I don't care.
