If you’re like most people, you probably don’t use your iPhone 5s all that often. Sure, it’s a powerful device with a ton of features, but it’s not always easy to get to them. In this article, we’ll show you how to activate your iPhone 5s so that you can start using it more. First things first: if your iPhone 5s is turned off, turn it on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time until the Apple logo appears. If your iPhone 5s is already on but you don’t see the Apple logo, press and hold both buttons until you see the Apple logo. Once your iPhone 5s is on, go to Settings and scroll down to General. Tap on this section and then tap on Reset All Settings. This will reset all of your settings back to their default values. Now that everything is reset, it’s time to activate your phone. To do this, open up iTunes and click on the Apps tab (it should be at the top of the screen). Scroll down until you see Apple ID and then click on this link. You’ll be asked to enter in your password (if you haven’t changed it since purchasing your phone) and then click OK. After that, iTunes will start scanning for any updates or new apps that have been installed onto your phone. Once it’s done scanning, click on Update All from here (it should be at the bottom of the screen). This will install any new updates or changes made to apps since last time iTunes was updated (or since you last activated your phone). Finally, when everything has been updated or installed, click on Quit iTunes from here (it should be at the bottom of the screen). Congratulations! Your iPhone 5s is now activated! ..
Turn on your iPhone by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button. Swipe the screen to unlock it. If this is your first time using an iPhone, you will be prompted to set it up. Follow the on-screen instructions.
