My IPhone 5's Imessages just stopped working and I tried restarting and then turning them off and turning them on.  It now says "Waiting for activation" and has said this for 15 minutues.

At the time of this post, there seems to be a problem with iMessage and Facetime but only some users are affected.

  • " My Verizon" app on my iPhone 5 running IOS7 just stopped working

    The " My Verizon" app on my iPhone 5 running IOS7 just stopped working (connecting). Apps says it can't establish a connection. I've tried WiFi and LTE connection and it won't work on either. I've rebooted iPhone and even re-installed My Verizon App. What gives???????

        Hi EPNApple,
    Oh No! That indeed sounds alarming! We want all of your applications to be fully functional. Are other applications able to connect properly? Can you access web pages? Have you attempted to remove and reinsert SIM on the right side of the device? Please keep us posted, thanks!

    Hello everyone my iPhone 5s sounds stop working.i did not do anything it just stop working when I tried to turn on my music player all the sounds is not working I already check the volume and it is not also muted :( what happened can anyone solve my problem please

    Hey Kirby17,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you are not getting any sound from the speaker, follow this article.
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.
    Have a nice day,

    My remote for my Apple TV just stopped working and I have tried putting in a new battery, re-pairing the remote, resetting the device by unplugging it, and I checked the infared coming from the remote is working. The light just blinks at me 3 times what else can I try to fix it?

    Have you tried unpairing the remote? You do this by pointing your remote at the Apple TV and holding the MENU and Left buttons down together for 6 seconds.

  • So my first iPod 4th generation charger just stopped working and I've only had it for about 2 months! Please help!!!!

    My iPod touch 4th generation charger just stopped working and I've only had it for about 2 or 3 months. Please help!!!

    Then it should still be under warranty, so make an appointment at your local apple store and have them take a look at it.
    If that's not a possibility and you want to troubleshoot, what do you mean by 'just stopped working'? What were you doing? Maybe some more info could help with troubleshooting.

    iPhoto just stopped working. It loads pictures, but then goes into rainbow wheel forever. Then I try to force quit it, and then the whole Mac hangs up (had to power cycle it to get it back). I am using OS 10.5.8, and when I run software update, it assures me I have up to date software. I have not added any photos since the last time I used it, probably less than a month ago. What gives?

    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

  • On both my desktop and notebook, sync just stops working and needs to be set up again! Although my account is still there ?

    On both my desktop and notebook, sync just stops working and needs to be set up again! Although my account is still there ?
    I have windows 7 on both computers and I use the paid version of Roboform (which does not encounter any problems!) So, I really need my sync to work and keep working. Please help......

    Do you mean that after closing the browser your Sync set up is gone and you need to Set it up again?
    This is, generally, because your privacy settings are too restrictive and you are deleting the password of your Sync account.
    You can modify this in the Privacy tab of your Preferences/Options window. Select Remember History or Use Custom Settings in the drop down to configure the level that you want.

  • While syncing my I phone it gets to step six "optimizing " and gets almost to the end and I get a message that itunes has stopped working and has to close. it get to like 1074 of 1138 items to optimize when iTunes quits. Any suggestions on how to fix this

    While syncing my I phone it gets to step six "optimizing " and gets almost to the end and I get a message that itunes has stopped working and has to close. It get to like 1074 of 1138 items to optimize when iTunes quits. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    Same problem here! Moreover, for some reason, the pictures in my iPhone 3GS somehow have been divided into 2 folders, Photos and Medialibrary. And when I open iPhone as a folder through the explorer I can see only the Photos folder, but cannot see the Medialibrary folder which stores the photos taken before updating/upgrading the iPhone and getting separated folders!!! What the hack with all of this?!!! When I connect iPhone to PC it automatically opens iTunes and starts syncronizing it, but at the process of OPTIMIZING the photos (and according to the number of photos it shows, I see that it tries to syncronize that invisible Medialibrary folder) the process suddenly stops and error message pops out Tried the sync test, tried the button DEBUG in that pop out message, but NOTHING HELPS!!! Also, when I open the Medialibrary in my iPhone, the screen get sblack all through scrolling it down, only the video clips are shown there... >.<
    So, could you, apple developers, please, explain WHAT THIS PROBLEM IS ABOUT?!!!!!! FIX IT! I am getting ****** of to spend hours at the computer and reading those lame advises which do not help at all! I have my own things to do except reading your support websites. And I payed for the product ready to use, but not a halfproduct which problems should further be solved somehow by users..

  • ITunes has stopped working and has to close message on Win 7

    When I plug my phone into the computer iTunes starts to open and then I get an error message that states iTunes has stopped working and has to close.  This seems to only happen while at work and not at home

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • "Killapps.exe has stopped working and has been closed&qu

    My card was working fine until i tried to update my drivers today. Now, no matter what version driver I attempt to install I get the error message "Killap
    ps.
    exe has stopped working and has been closed." when it begins to install the drivers. I've attempted the beta driver, the latest stable driver, and even installing the drivers off the disk. I even tried using system restore to go back to before I attempted my first update today, only to have system restore fail!? I have an X-Fi Fatalty Champion card, and am running Vista Ultimate 32 bit. Now that this has occured, I'm stuck without sound. Before you even ask, yes, I'm using the disk labled for vista that came with my card. Window's built in sound drivers (which worked when i first plugged in the card before I even installed the software a few months ago), dont even attempt to kick in. Help? Please?!

    I was having the same problem.  Earlier in the week, I was able to drag a few photos to the upload folder and they synced correctly.  Yesteday, I dragged different photos, and I got the "applephotostream.exe has stopped working" error.
    The solution - for me, at least! - was to reduce the size of the pictures being uploaded to the photostream.  While all of the pictures were jpegs, the first set were ca. 800K (3800 x 2500), and the second set were ca. 2.5 MB (4000 x 2000).  When I reduced the resolution of the last set by a factor of 4 (ca. 600 K, 2000 x 1500), they uploaded without a hitch.
    Based on this admittedly sketchy experiment, it looks like Apple has a max picture size limit, apparently based on file size rather than picture resolution).  Perhaps < 1 MB?  To be rigorous, I should complete the experiment - leave the resolution of the second set of pictures alone and reduce file size by reducing jpeg quality. 
    Has anyone heard about a picture file size limit?
