I had very little issues with the ctOS towers, in fact I did them almost instantly when I played and was finished within an hr, maybe two. I can say that a few had some tricky Server boxes placed in some really iffy places, like one in Pawnee I believe is unlocked by carefully positioning yourself on a box and looking towards the box; you kind of grab it through some pallets.

That happened to me once but it was after someone invaded my round to hack me. I quit and came back in and was able to get the tower.

I have all the towers unlocked. Trust me there is a solution. Your grammar makes it a bit hard to understand your problem.

I did all 13 (+ later those that were hidden) -- there's no glitch, but some are very tricky. Sometimes you need to explode a thing or two in order to see it, or the explosion will clear the barrier that prevents you to enter or see. Sometimes is just lifting a crate/lift in order to reveal the unlock mechanism. Anyways, I'd suggest do it like you usually do and if still can't unlock, look for objects that are user accessible (exploding objects, objects that can be moved up and down, etc.) but somewhat unnecessary or don't serve much purpose in the scene.

I also had a box I couldn't interact with, but then (and only then) I found out I hadn't hacked the server at the corresponding base. You can't hack into a ctos tower if you haven't hacked the base which it is connected to first.

I don't understand this. I myself can't unlock ctOS towers in the Loop even though I am on the act 1 mission 2 in the Loop. Can someone clarify? Thanks.

Figured it out. Nevermind.

Please let me know how you figured it out?! I just returned to this game after having it on my shelf for a few years, and I suddenly like it a lot, but I do have some of these issues with some of the towers. I stand in front of them and they say it is a vulnerable ctOS tower and I see the red diamond, but I cannot interact with the tower in any way, neither by hacking or by interacting normally with it.

P.S: The other condescending morons explaining obvious things that aren't asked, such as how to even get to the towers, have not understood the question at all. Of course we know that we sometimes have to blow up a propane tank to unlock a switchbox or to move a forklift to see a hidden cam etc. that's babies stuff. This question is about situations where the game doesn't act as it usually does, i.e. when you stand right in front of the tower's panel/box and you see the red square/diamond but there's still no way to interact with the panel/box on the tower like you normally can.

In cases like that, your game is most likely glitched. Either quit and try again or start a new game. If you cannot interact with something and you know for certain that it's been unlocked and you should be able to interact with it, then there is something wrong with your game.
