Today we will be the first time turn on and activate our iPhone, in my case it's the iPhone 5S. I will tell you in detail how this is done, as well as point out the errors and problems that I encountered while activating my iPhone.
Preparing to activate iPhone
Before we start the first turn-on, we need to prepare in advance so that the process goes smoothly and without errors.
What we need:
- At least 20-30% charge.
- Internet access via Wi-Fi or via PC / Laptop with the latest version of iTunes and internet connected.
- Nano sim card.
If your device is completely discharged, take USB cable and connect it to a computer or electrical network through the adapter that comes with the kit.
if you have Wi-Fithen check that it is available and you have Internet access.
If not, then you will need your computer or laptop, which will be connected to the Internet. You need to download and install on it (your computer) latest version applications iTunes from the official site, link: http://itunes.apple.com/.
After the preparatory steps, you can begin activation.
IPhone Activation
We will activate the iPhone with a SIM card, and accordingly the activation will consist of the following steps:
- Turning on
- Basic settings
- Computer connection and activation
- First start
IMPORTANT! If your phone is locked, then for activation you need a SIM card of the operator to which it is locked!
Turning on the device
In order to turn on the device, you must press and hold the button for a few seconds "Inclusions"located on the top of the device. See the photo below.
If everything was done correctly, then on iPhone screen a silver apple will appear, which means you can proceed to the next stage.
Basic iPhone settings
After turning on the device, you will see a welcome message in various languages \u200b\u200bon the screen. Now, with a slight movement of your finger, from left to right, we swipe along the bottom of the screen.
Then we select the language we need, it can be any from the list.
In the next step, choose your country.
If you have Wi-Fi, then select it from the list and enter the password. For those who do not have it, you will need activation via iTunes on your PC.
Connecting the phone to the computer and continuing the activation
We will need our USB cable and computer / laptop (PC)... We connect the cable to the iPhone, and then to your PC.
After that, on the screen of your phone, you should see a picture as in the photo below:
The first thing to do after connecting is to enable or disable. They are required to use GPS, Google maps, etc. You can enable them now or later, after installation. I decided to turn them on right away.
In the next step, we select the item "Set the phone as new", since this is our first inclusion and we have nothing to restore yet.
For iPhone 5S owners, there is one item that can be completed immediately or postponed until later. I decided to do it right away, if you too, then click on "Set Up Now"
Now we need to press and release the button several times (about 10-20) "home"as shown on the screen of your smartphone. If you did everything correctly, you will see a picture and a message like mine in the photo below.
Since we have installed a fingerprint, it means you need to set a password. After all, we will not always have the opportunity to film it. For example, you may be wearing gloves or with a dirty finger you need, you never know. Therefore, for convenience, there is a digital combination, which must also be set and memorized.
The next and last step is "diagnostics", i.e. you need to decide whether or not to allow the phone to send data to Apple's servers. This can be both error data and some others. I decided not to do this, and accordingly I chose "Don't Send" (do not send).
After that, you will see the long-awaited greeting on your screen! This means that you have successfully installed and activated your iPhone! Congratulations!
If something did not work out for you, then I advise you to take a look at the problems that I encountered during my first launch, as well as watch a video where I told everything in detail.
IPhone activation problems and solutions
I will describe the problems that I encountered when activating my IPhone 5S, as well as their solutions.
- If you do not remove the factory film from the phone, then it is almost impossible to press the “Home” button (round, on the front, bottom of the phone). Therefore, when the phone was automatically locked, you had to press the power button (on top of the phone).
- Due to the lack of Wi-Fi, a computer was needed.
- Since I had old version iTunes, I couldn't connect my phone to my computer. I had to first download and update it to the latest version.
- To update iTunes, it must be closed, otherwise it will not update, but will give an update error.
- To remove a fingerprint, you need to remove the factory film, otherwise nothing will work, since the sensor does not recognize it from under the film.
These are the problems I encountered during the stage of my activation and the first launch, I hope my experience will allow you to avoid them.
I also advise you to look at the "Apple support" page, there are already many answers to problems with activation, link: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3424?viewlocale\u003dru_GB&locale\u003dru_GB.
IPhone Activation Tutorial
You can leave your questions and comments in the comments below.
Hello everyone! We have already met with the identifier in the apple company system (). And at the end of the article, we came to the conclusion that we need to register an Apple ID to create our own, unique account... And if it is necessary, then we will do it! Moreover, if you follow these instructions exactly, the whole process will not take you much time, and efforts will generally be minimal.
By the way, the article will consider registering an Apple ID without any card (credit card). Why without her? In fact, you can think of a lot of reasons. I will not go deeply and will list only a few of them.
And here they are:
- The simplest thing is that not everyone has this very credit card.
- Many are afraid to enter their card details (although it is completely safe).
- For some, only free apps in the App Store are enough.
If all these three points have nothing to do with you, then at a certain stage (at what stage? All the details - below in the text), it will be necessary to enter the "plastic" data.
In general, you can register an Apple ID at any time, both when you turn on the device for the first time, and after it. The scheme is almost the same everywhere. Here we will consider the second option, namely, creating an account for an iPhone or iPad, which we have already used for some time.
That is, we need:
- Activated iPhone, iPod, iPad - here the instruction is universal, regardless of the gadget.
- Wi-Fi connection or an inserted SIM card (nothing will work without the Internet).
All is ready? Begin!
We take your device, unlock it and find the App Store icon in the menu, click.
We choose any free game or an application - install. Attention! The free application is required.
Then we need a menu item to create an Apple ID.
A window for creating a new account will appear. We see the choice of a country or region, leaving Russia.
"Terms and conditions ..." - just accept. It's hard for me to imagine a person who will read this - 60 pages after all :) Although, perhaps, I do not have a rich imagination :)
The data entry window opens.
Several important clarifications:
- Be sure to enter real email.
- The password must be composed of at least 8 characters: numbers, letters of the English alphabet, and at least one capital letter is required. Write down or remember the password!
- Age - you must indicate that you are at least 18 years old. If you have not yet reached the age of majority - blatantly lie.
Very important! The specified e-mail and password will be your Apple ID!Save, write on a piece of paper, and never show them to anyone.
Remember, this data is the only proof that the device belongs to you. To understand the seriousness of the situation, I advise you to read (especially pay attention to the last paragraph). Have you done everything? Move on…
Payment details - choose no (unless you intend to use a credit card). Or (if you want to use the App Store to its fullest), specify the payment system, then enter all the necessary information. The item “iTunes Gift Cards…” is optional. We fill in the rest of the data.
A letter was sent to the mailbox indicated above - we open it, and of course we follow the link to complete the process.
Congratulations, registration for an Apple ID (and, completely free) is complete! And now you can use the App Store by installing freely distributed (or by paying - paid) applications and games.
In my opinion, the instruction turned out to be quite detailed, but if you are tormented and haunted by various questions, then I always wait for them in the comments. Feel free to tell us about your problem - I will help, as they say, than I can :)
Updated! An article has appeared that summarizes all the errors that can interfere with the creation of an Apple ID. Therefore, if something does not work out,.
P.S. By the way, for a full and correct registration of Apple ID, you need to click on the social media buttons and "like" the article - try it, it really works!

Setting up Apple ID
One of the important steps in the initial setup of an iPhone is setting up and registering an Apple ID, with which you can register in various mega-important applications, such as the iCloud cloud storage.
To register your Apple ID, you can use different ways... We will show you how to register an ID for free using app program Store ... We launch this program and select any application that is free, for example, social networkwhich you usually use and upload the application to your iPhone.

By clicking on the link in the letter, confirm the activation of your Apple ID.
What mistakes can not be made when activating iPhone
One of the most common mistakes when activating - bought, but forgot to remove the special protective filmblocking the Home key, so I could not activate it correctly, the scanner was not read from my finger due to the presence of a film on the button.
Another common and more serious mistake is the lack of wI-FI connections logged in for the first time with a computer, but was in a hurry and forgot to update iTunes, so the activation went wrong. And some users fail to update iTunes and receive an error message, since this program was open during the update, and it must be closed.
Still far from a minor mistake is the quick consent of the iPhone buyer so that the seller sets up your iPhone himself and creates an Apple ID for a small fee. He, of course, is always happy and it is clear why. But you are in vain falling into the euphoria of a relatively cheap service. What will you do then when the seller does not tell you the control words of the question during registration or completes the registration with some mistakes? It will not show up immediately, but then you will run into it when the ID will not turn on. Therefore, activate the purchased iPhone only by yourself, writing down all passwords and keywords to remember.
Be sure to keep the purchase receipt and the box itself, which you will definitely need in case of theft or loss of your iPhone.

2) Next, we will be asked whether to enable geolocation services, they are necessary for the operation of many applications (geotags in photos, maps, navigator and even Siri), but if you work as a spy, you can not activate them :) After the iPhone 5 will ask us to connect to wireless network (Wi-fi), the Internet is required to complete the activation process and configure a number of Apple services.
