When trying to activate FaceTime, get code " Could not sign in.Please check network connections and try again".Wi fi is strong and can access everything else.Any advice?
Hello
Try this... I had the same problem and this worked for me.
Go to your system preferences → network → make sure WI-FI selected → advanced → DNS tab. Add 8.8.8.8 to the DNS servers. Go back to FaceTime and try to verify your account again.
Good luck!

on my ipod touch i have wi fi connection but when i try to activate imessages and try and enter my Apple ID, it comes up with error saying could not sign in, check your network connections and try again!!!
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings then restart your iPod.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears. -

Processor: Intel Core i7 2.9 Ghz
Memory: 8GB 1600Mhz DDR3
HDD: 1TB (5400rpm)
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000Not sure if you have tried adding 8.8.8.8 to the DNS servers yet or if your messages app is a problem as well. for me the only fix was as follows:
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/IdentityServices
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. Log out or restart the computer, empty the Trash, and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Basically drag the items in the identityservices folder to trash log out, log back in, empty trash, start messages or facetime!!
GOOD LUCK! -

Have you tried a reset? Hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.
