Facetime activation errors since IOS8 update

IPAD Air (16gig WiFi)  since upgrading to IOS8, I have tried to setup Face Time and keep getting "An error occurred during activation. Try again" or "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again."
I have rebooted.
I have reset WiFi.
Rest set and tried new password.
I have tried several time, and the error just keeps coming back.
It took overnight to set up messages.(had several log in problems, then just worked this morning)
All this to get conductivity to work.

    Try to turn your computer clear off and be sure you check Software Update again, and Always turn your computer clear OFF afterward and then RESTART and see how that works out for you.

  • Since IOS8 update my iPad loses cellular service every time it exits sleep mode.  Hard Reset has not helped.

    Each time I wake iPad from Sleep mode since IOS8 update I have no cellular service.  I have tried a Hard Reset as suggested by others, but the problem persists.

  • Since IOS8 update I can no longer open .rtf files in Safari

    We have a system at work where by we have a lot of emails saved in our records as .rtf files. We access these on our iPad through safari by visiting our website, on the previous IOS they could just be opened within safari and they popped up in a new tab. Since the update they do not open, instead we get an error message dying that the file cannot be opened- "unable to read document, An error occurred while reading the document.".
    Is there a fix for this?

    I have the same problem with Safari, it will not open any Rich Text File attachments in Gmail. I can see people thinking why is he using Gmail in safari? Two co-workers and I share a work related account and important stuff comes in by RTF file, the duty person can see it instantly there.
    Anyway, I need to open RTF files using safari.  A process of elimination, I found a free App that will let you "Open in" when you get an attachment in the mail.
    IT is Called RTF Write by Mach Software Design. 
    (Apple you guys still need to pull your finger out and sort the IOS8 Issues. The RTF problem has been reported as a "Bug")

    WWhat happens when you connect your iPhone to your computer? Do you get any error messages? Try rebooting your computer and reset your iPhone. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.

  • Photo orientation upside down since ios8 update

    This is odd... since the ios8 update, my 5s has started taking photos upside down. They appear correct in the 'viewfinder', but in my 'recently added' they are inverted. While taking the photo, the top bar (which contains the flash settings, HDR, timer and front/back camera switcher) is also upside down. Is this a known issue since the update? Here's a photo of what I mean - and although it looks like the photo in the thumbnail is right-side up, when it is opened, the photo is upside-down.

    Same here with iPhone 6
    I've noticed that the first picture I take is OK...it's all the subsequent pics that are upside down.  If I leave the camera app then come back to it...same thing....first pic is OK and all the rest are upside down.  You can tell before you even take the pic...the flash text (on/off/auto) on the top of the screen will be upside down

Please check your network connection and try again." I've been struggling with this since the update. It seems as if I can't get but half of the access that I use to have. Thanks for the help

    Hello SycoKitten,
    I'd suggest verifying that your wireless network's configuration meets our recommendations.

    If still having issues, you may need to open up ports indicated for FaceTime in the following article.

  • HT4623 Why does my iphone say "Activation Error" during the updating process?

    after updating my iphone, the process is like asking the language, then the country, and then the wifi right? after i connected to the wifi, i pressed "next" then it says "Activating your Iphone" then suddenly it says "Activation Error". what does this mean? can i just restore the previous version of this iphone again?

    You cannot install the previous version. "Activaton error" usually means that the phone was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it from the carrier it was locked to. It is now locked again to that carrier.

  • Strange Facetime activation error

    I have followed with interest the issues surrounding Facetime activation problems. I have one I have not yet seen. My new IPOD Touch G4 will not activate facetime. I get the most unusual error message:
    unable to verify email because it is already in use
    Anyone have any train of thought on what this could be?
    thanks

    Perhaps it is because the same email address was inadvertently registered with a different password.
    I would try using another email address, even if you have to create a new one.

  • Music messed up since ios8 update

    ever since I updated my iphone 5s, my music has been messed up, at first it put cover albums of other bands for a certain song, example caladen brood had a dean brody cover, and a track name from adam gregory, when from Caladan brood. i updated to 8.02 no change, i restored my phone, that fixed that issue, but now when i sync it doesn't sync all my music, in fact it seems liek the more I sync the more gets deleted off my phone (as the memory keeps going up), even though i deleted nothing. has anyone else have the same problems? any fixes to this problem? thanks

    Hello,
    I’ve exactly the same issue with an iPhone 5 updated to iOS 8.0.2.
    First thing I thought it is strange was that several Album Covers have been replaced or updated.
    Then I have seen that the play lists on my iPhone are missing a lot music tracks.
    The track is shown in grey, normal is black, and there is a dotted circle in front. You can’t play that grey tracks from the iPhone. I’ve investigated and could find the information that it means it is not synchronized yet.
    It doesn’t matter if you try to synch the device a hundred times, it will be the same.
    This issue is known from previous versions, but it could be solved there with unchecking a setting to synch only selected Music and videos and remove the playlist and add them after synchronizing again.
    I’ve tried it and it is not working now.
    Checking all my devices I have the same issue on my iPad Air and iPad mini, updated to iOS 8.0.2.
    Right now I try a reset of my iPhone to see if it solves something.
    I’ll tell you if that solved the issue when done.
    Using a MacBook Pro and the latest version of iTunes (11.4)
