  • I have upgraded to IOS 7 and now I wish I did not as I have lost face time and iMessage and they would not get activated no mater what I have tried .it seems they are trying to get connected but are unable to do so.

    I have upgraded to IOS 7 and now I wish I did not as I have lost face time and iMessage and they would not get activated no mater what I have tried .it seems they are trying to get connected but are unable to do so.
    It is becoming frustrating to try to get it activated .
    I do not know how to get it activated when it keeps informing me that there is no net work connected
    Could not sign in please check your network connection and try again.
    For both iMessage and FaceTime .
    Any radical solution that you have will be appreciated as it is becoming frustrating .

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore and you have IOS-6 or lower, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • TS4268 I need help getting my face time and imessage to work.

    I need help getting my face time and imessage to work. It is saying wating for activation. I just got my iphone 5 2 days ago. I have reset it from the phone and from itunes on the computer, made sure I'm attached to wifi.

    The 3 basic troubleshooting steps are these in order: 1. Restart your iphone  2.  Reset your settings/iphone  3.  Restore your iphone.  Since your iphone is only a couple of days old, you should backup your device before restoring.  If you don't have anything on your iphone that you care to lose, then simply restoring without a backup is fine.  A quick reset of pressing the sleep/wake button (top of iphone) and your home button simultaneously and holding it until the silver Apple logo appears.

  • My ipad 2 is into day 2 of "repair". Face time and imessage

    I'm not the only ipad 2 owner with facetime faults and imessage problems. Its just plainly a question of poor build quality. Support sent me to a local third party service centre and they may charge a fee. Its costing me lots of cash and I am not happy to say the least. I'm concidering my options and depending on what the repair centre say, I will then decide what to do.

    Facetime requires wifi so its possible you have a firewall issue (or a porting issue if behind a NAT firewall at your router)- the fact that you can call your fiancee straight back seems to indicate you are using a port that is still open - but after it closes you cannot initiate a call yourself.  Routers have many strange behaviours, one of which is to allow bidirectional communication when communication is established in one direction to start with - incoming or outgoing.  Check your router help to see if you had to set up port forwarding to allow traffic in on a specific port - then check you have the same port configured to allow outgoing - sometimes you have to specify both directions so traffic can initiate in both directions.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1629
    Will help you check/setup having referrred to your routers documentation.
    iMessage runs in the default account (normally the Appleid email address you set up your id with)
    It may help if you go to
    Settings\Mail, Contacts,Calendar  then click on your email address that you use for iMessage - this will be one listed in Settings\Messages - Receive At field.
    In the email Accounts section look up the .me.com server for smtp - make a note of the settings
    navigate to your own email address you use for messaging and on the email account details page click on SMTP - then add server, and then add the smtp .me.com details.
    Whilst in settings\Mail,Contacts,Calendars - under Accounts check Fetch shows Push, click on it and check through all the available options for email are set to Push wherever possible and fetch is set 15 minutes for the fetch cycle.
    not all email servers will support push - if you use a server through some emails they will default to using the fetch cycle - I suspect from what you tell me that is what is happening.
    The Apple .me.com server supports Push (unless you turn it onto fetch or manual - so associating this smtp server with your ordinary Receive At email address may help to resolve messaging delay issues.
    Have a trawl through the info here, let me know how you get on.
    Also if you have not already done so, can you add, iMessage and facetime to ON in your notification centre - and set the Alert style to Banner for me.  Turn restrictions off altogether while we test your configuration.  I would also like to know if you can swap your ipad with your fiancee's at some point so that you are using different ipads against your own home netowrks - this may help isolate issues with either home wifi connectivity or idevice.
    Regards, Ct

  • TS4268 What happens when you cannot turn face time and imessage off because there is no button on your ipad 3

    I have just read the troubleshooting for activating facetime and i message and they say to turn off facetime and imessage but what happns when you dont have that button????

    You can try both of these suggestions, but in the first one, you shouldn't even see the FaceTime app on the screen and I assume that you do see the app on the screen, but try it anyway.
    Settings>General>Restrictions>FaceTime. Make sure that you did not restrict FaceTime.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. You will have to enter all of the device settings again in the settings app, but that returns all of you settings to factory condition. It will not delete any data.

  • My iphone wont connect to face time and imessage, i've narrowed it down to its trying to connect through my phone number, but when i change to apple id it the screen for the password keeps coming up over and over

    i have narrow my problem down to imessage and facetime are both trying to use my cell phone number to connect but because i am connected thru wifi it wont let me.  I went into the imessage and facetime setting and try to change this to my apple id, problem is it asks for my password and keeps saying its not right, i have the right one, why is it doing this????

    i had this problem, i turned off imessage, turned off phone, turned on phone, turned on imessage and let it reactivate.

  • Face time and iMessage not working

    For a better response you probably need to be posting this in either the Aperture or Facetime threads.

  • TS4268 Phone Number isn't even an option to use for Face Time or Imessaging

    In the past few days, my phone number has gone from being gray and uncheckable to use for face time and Imessaging, to not even being an option to use.  I can only use my Apple ID now.  How do i get my phone number back as an option?  I thought the phone was supposed to automatically recognize my number as an option?

    Sign out of both iMessage and Facetime. Sign back in. Your number should be available again.
    Best of luck.
