iPhone activation working

We've gotten a number of happy iPhone users telling us that activations are working once more. I've been encountering a number of iTunes errors myself while trying to update my iPhone to the 2.0 firmware, though I just tried once more and it worked.

Your mileage may vary, but it looks like things are slowly getting up to full speed once more.

Updated iphone to 2.0 earlier tonight. Everything went well until I turned the phone off. When I turned it back on, the phone was blank and the message said that I needed to connect to itunes to activate the phone. Connected to itunes and got message that I had to restore to original factory settings (kiss of death). Solved problem by turning phone off and then back on. This time everything was fine.

I am from Buffalo, NY and I waited in line for about an hour and 15 mins or so, walked into the Apple store, they asked if I was an AT&T customer, and if I was an iPhone user, and both answers were yes. They activated me, I signed, and I was in my car 5 or 6 minutes later....no activation problems whatsoever

Here's the fix if you get timed out in iTunes. Select "Music" from the left hand Nav in itunes (not the iphone Music, but your Libraries). Now go back to iPhone in the Nav. If this doesn't work, do it again...multiple times if needed. This trick seemed to work for everyone.

Ok. So after trying all day to get from 1.1.4 to 2.0 on a v1 iPhone, I just got the nod to upgrade and it's installed successfully.

Good luck to the rest of you. It looks like their getting their fruit heads out of their undersides finally.
