I can log into iTunes and App Store but NOT iMessage. What gives?

I'm currently using Wifi with my 3rd gen iPad. iOS 6.0.1. I'm not home so I don't have access to my iMac (actually currently at 30k ft somewhere over Virginia :) ).
Anyway, I can log into iTunes, access the App Store, sign out of those, log back in. No prob. I used my appleID and pass to write this message. But I cannot get into Imessage, and I can't figure it out!
I get an error saying: "could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." If I try to make a new appleID, imessage thinks and thinks...nothing happens.
This isn't a new issue, it's been like this for quite a while, since upgrading to iOS 6 months ago. How can I get into imessage on my ipad? For what it's worth, it works fine on my iPhone.
Would appreciate any help!

  • Cannot log into iTunes and App Store since 6.1 update (iphone 5)

    I see many other of you having trouble with App Store in other discussions (App Store shows blank), me too.
    And I also cannot log into iTunes through Settings-->iTunes & App Stores. After putting in my Apple ID and password it just doesn't go anywhere.
    All of these started since I updated my iphone 5 from 6.0.2 to 6.1 yesterday. I've also updated my ipad 3 but it works just fine.
    Any one can help?

    Hi foxlolo,
    Have you tried doing a reset on your iPhone? Press the Home button and the Power button at the same time and hold them down until the Silver Apple appears. Once it has fully reset, try to log into iTunes again on your phone.
    Hope this helps!

  • TS3988 I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud?

    I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud? I plan on getting rid of my old email address which is my old Apple ID so how is that going to work?

    Same question Wish someone had replied!
    I changed my Apple ID to my new email and now cannot find any way to access icloud. Unfortunately I had allowed icloud to hijack my airbook files, so of course I am afraid I will lose them tomorrow when I exchange my iphone for a new one and cannot keep an icloud account i cannot access. What a poor sync system! Really atypical for apple!

  • HT2688 My daughter has used my computer to log into iTunes and download music but now it won't let me download recently purchased music from my iPad onto my computer. I want to transfer the recently purchased songs onto my iPod so how can I do this now.

    My daughter has used my computer to log into iTunes and download music but now it won't let me download recently purchased music from my iPad onto my computer. I want to transfer the recently purchased songs onto my iPod so how can I do this now? iTunes now says that I have to wait another 55 days! There must be a way to do this since I have paid for them.

    In iTunes sign out of your daughters Apple ID and sign in with your own.

  • I can log into iTunes on my iMac but it won accept the ID and PW on the Apple TV, why?'t

    I'm new to this also.  I can log into iTunes on my imac but the same ID and PW will not allow me to get on through Apple TV.  Why?

    It's a straightforward port-forwarding issue.
    You need to forward ports to the internal ip address of your apple tv as follows:
    TCP 123
    TCP 3689
    UDP 5353
    TCP 80
    TCP 4343
    TCP 53
    This may also solve other problems you may have with homesharing...

  • I can open iTunes and app stores but don't open!!

    I can open iTunes and app stores but don't open!!

    Hi BarbiJ,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would recommend rebuilding the iPhoto library per this article:
    iPhoto 6 and later: Rebuilding the iPhoto library
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2638
    To rebuild the iPhoto library:
    Quit iPhoto if it is open.
    Hold down the Command and Option keys on the keyboard.
    Open iPhoto.
    Keep the keys held down until you are prompted to rebuild the library.
    A dialog will appear with rebuild options. Select the options you want to use.
    Click Rebuild to begin the rebuild process. This may take a few minutes to complete.
    Cheers,

  • HT204053 My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!

    My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!

    The recommended solution for most families is to share the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases, so you can share your purchases, but us different IDs for iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud.  With this arrangement, each person can automatically download purchases made on the shared ID (by turning this feature on in Settings>iTunes & App Stores), while keeping their FaceTime calls, text messages and iCloud data (including photo stream) separated.  There is no requirement that the ID you use for purchasing be the same as the ID you use for these other services.

  • On my ipad mini my apple id is correct for itunes and app store but is not correct for icloud. how do I fix this?

    On my ipad mini my apple id is correct in the itunes and app but for icloud it is incorrect. How do I fix this? On icloud it shows correctly.

    You can log out of your iCloud account via Settings > iCloud > Sign Out (or Delete Account if not on iOS 8), and you can then log back in with the correct id.

  • Itunes and App Store will not work.

    I recently got my version 10.6.4 Macbook Pro repaired. When I got my Macbook Pro back, I needed to reinstall the applications using the disk which originally came with the purchase of my Macbook Pro.
    After doing this though, all of the applications worked, however iTunes and the App Store do not.
    The App store application had a question mark over the icon and when I clicked on it, nothing happened.
    iTunes has a signal over the icon and when I press on it to open a message pops us saying - "You have Mac OS X 10.6.4. The application requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 or later."
    Please can you help with these issues?
    Thank you.
    Breannejohnson

    Click your apple >> software updates.  Keep doing updates until there are none left.  That should take you back to 10.6.8.
    If software updates isn't working, you can download and install this:  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399

  • Logged in to iTunes and App Store but cannot log in to icloud

    My wife has set up a family icloud and sent me an invitation, since recently becoming an iPad mini owner. However, I cannot log in to iCloud.  Whenever I enter my Apple ID in the screen I get an error message basically telling me what I have entered is incorrect but how can that be when I am in iTunes and the App Store?  Can anyone help as it's doing my wife's nut in as she wants to get the family iCloud up and running and I'm the guinea pig.
    Thanks

    First, try the new password.  If you didn't sign out of iCloud prior to changing the primary email address of your Apple ID, this is what can cause this problem.
    Also, read this: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support
