http://cdn.macrumors.com/article-new/2016/02/ipadairiphone5s.jpgLast night, Apple released a new build of iOS 9.3 (http://www.macrumors.com/roundup/ios-9) (13E236) designed specifically for the GSM iPad 2 (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT206214), addressing an issue that prevented the GSM iPad 2 from accessing Apple's activation servers. After downloading iOS 9.3, some iPad 2 users received the following message: "Your iPad could **t be activated because the activation service is temporarily unavailable," a problem the update aims to fix.

There has been some confusion over the iPad 2 iOS 9.3 update, because there is a second separate activation bug affecting many older devices, including the iPad Air and earlier and the iPhone 5s (http://www.macrumors.com/roundup/iphone-5s) and earlier.

The second activation bug, which spurred Apple to stop signing iOS 9.3 for multiple products (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/03/24/apple-pulls-ios-9-3-older-devices/) yesterday, prevents older device owners from activating their iPhones and iPads if they can't remember the Apple ID and password originally used to set up the device.

While the iPad 2 iOS 9.3 update fixes the first activation issue, it does **t address the second activation bug that affects many more devices. Apple has **t resumed signing iOS 9.3 for older devices, so many customers who have an iPad Air or earlier, iPad mini 2 or earlier, or iPhone 5s or earlier are **t able to download and install iOS 9.3 if they have **t done so already.

Apple has said it is working on a fix for the second activation issue, which will be released in the form of a new update to iOS 9.3 in the next few days. Until that time, customers who have an older device will need to remain on iOS 9.2.1.
