My iMessage and facetime is not working after updating to ios 7... My ipad works perfectly and it's the same apple id. Any answers or reasons why on the iPhone 5 is not working???

My iMessage and facetime is not working after updating to ios 7...
Any answers on how to fix it? I've tried to restart, restore connected to itunes, but nothing.

ACTIVATING FACETIME AND IMESSAGES
Activating Facetime and Imessages on your phone requires the ability to send SMS messages and depending upon where you are that might be an international SMS. Check with your carrier to see if your plan supports sending of international SMS messages. If you are having trouble activating Facetime or Imessages turn them both off on your device and reset the device (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost)). Wait for the device to restart and wait a minute and turn Facetime and imessage back on and wait for activation. If that does not fix things read the following articles:

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

When iOS 6.1 comes out I would update.

IPhone 4 camera and photo application not working!!

My iphone 4 camera and photo applications do not work anymore. When I tried to take a picture, the camera froze. I turned off my phone and when i turned it back on, the app will load, but when i tap to take the picture it returns to the home screen. The picture library application does the same thing. I try to load my picture library and when I tap to open it, it returns to the home screen.
I have tried turning it off and on multiple times and also turned it off for an extended period of time and it still doesn't work. Any suggestions on what the problem could be or possible ways to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Tap Settings App>General>Reset, near bottom of list>Reset All Settings. If this does not help you could try a Restore with iTunes, and when asked at end Set Up as New. If this does not help and you have Warranty or AppleCare Coverage take iPhone to Apple for resolution.

Camera and led light not working after IOS 7 update on iphone 5 help please!!

After I installed the update my led light won't work for the flashlight and my camera doesn't work either. Only the front facing camera works. Any suggestions?

thanks for the suggestions, i tried the ideas you suggested but i dont even get a camera showing for the rear camera, i also noticed the torchlight no longer works. i did all the steps but no luck.
So I took my camera to the genius bar this weekend as well as walking through various steps with the apple guys in ohio support over the net.
With the guys at the genius bar, after i insisted that it must be software as the rear camera stopped working only after the softwre update, they continued to assure me it was hardware and talked me into letting them replace the camera, they then took it to the back and tried fixing a camera and 30 minutes later came out and said the rear camera is no longer being detected and wanted me to replace the motherboard for yet more money. im glad they didnt charge me for the new camera though as it still didnt work.
anyway the motherboard idea i rejected as it was just 2 months out of warranty and had only stopped working the day after the release of 7.0.2, so im going to wait until the next few releases to see what happens, as i dont believe for a second its hardware. i expected a stock answer from apple and its exactly what i got even after my explanation of how it was working the day before the release. not overly impressed with the whole process.
i wanted to back down to 7.0.1 to confirm the camera still works but they said no chance so i cant even see if it still works ouside 7.0.2. anyway will update if i get any further progress.

Drag and drop feature not working after updating to iPhoto 6

I just purchased the new iMac with the dual core processor. I transfered files from my old iMac using firewire as prompted. But in iPhoto 6 I can't drag photos which prevents me from creating photo albums, books, etc.
I have read through the postings about this issue which say the problem is because of the helvetica font. However, I do have Helvetica in my system and have made sure Helvetica is used on all photos.
I don't know what to try next. Any other suggestions?

biggsbdavis:
Try disabling and then re-enabling the Helvetica font. Sometimes that's all it takes.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

Adobe reader and exchange email not working after update

I updated to Safari 5.1.1 and Security Update 2011-006 via Software Updates today.
This rendered my .PDF plugin completely useless so I uninstalled that and tried the built in version, which works for all form input but will not allow me to submit the form!
Also my exchange email quite working.
I have deadlines I NEED to get done using in browser .PDF support w/ the ability to submit.
Any suggestions?

I responded to the other post with a solution to this, user I troubleshooted was on Exchange 2013
I came across this issue today. Email appears to be sent but nothing shows up in the sent items or the recipient mailbox. I powered off and on the iphone and tried to send again and this time got a message sending error and it kept retrying. I went into the advanced settings of the exchange email account and turned S/MIME on and the email got sent. I then turned S/MIME off again and emails continued to be sent normally.

CAMERA and PHOTO LIBRARY NOT WORKING ON 3GS

Camera option frozen wont let me take pictures. Also when viewing library it wont playback video or show full rez pics. *** apple ?

I'm having a similar problem. I can usually get one shot off but after that the autofocus works fine. I can push the home button to quit but nothing else works. No shutter, camera roll button, or switch to video.
If I press home and then back into the cam it works again for 1 or 2 shots but thats it.

Camera and flashlight does not work

My camera and flashlight will not work after the ios 7 upgrade. I have rebootd and completely wiped out my iPhone and still no camera or flashlight. I have seen where others are having the same problem but no answers.

I had the same problem it's definitely a software issue because the camera would sometimes work in camera apps but now I could not switch cameras at all.
I may have found a solution of course I probably won't get credit for thanks to Apple.
I believe the problem arises from a bug when the camera is used in lock mode, try restarting your phone with the home and power button. Then open your camera in locked mode and set the flash to auto. Maybe take a few pictures, switch the camera back and fourth, turn HDR on and off, but make sure the flash is set to auto before you unlock the phone. Heck even try playing with the flashlight.
After I did this in locked mode to my surprise my camera and flashlight are now fully functional after I have unlocked it with the password. I'm not to sure what triggered this bug but when I first got iOS 7 and played with my phone some how I unlocked the lock screen without putting in a password. Just by using the camera and the notification and control Center, I unlocked the phone which might of triggered the bug.

My new iPad sound not working after updating to ios 6.1. Headphones are working fine. I tried all the troubleshoot. can anyone know the answer, plz share with me

I Have tried:

-going into general settings and reset all settings
-the device reset several times (waiting until I saw the all important apple logo)
-removing the last few apps I installed.
Nothing at all has worked, please help!

VIBER is not working after updating android 4.3 on my Experia SP.Any idea or solution ?:-)

Viber is not working after updating my Xperia SP to new Android 4.3There are totally confusing simptoms: I can not hear the other party, the other party can not hear me , I can not answer the call even when I try to or the other party can not answer my viber call even if they try to. CAN SOMEONE HELP or HAVE ANY IDEA :-)

I also had problems with xperia sp after updating to 4.3 - phone was slow to an extent of being unusable. However, even before update (on firmware 4.1) I found the phone quite slow.I am very happy that I returned the phone to my carrier in exchange to nexus 5. When I got hold of it I really felt the change in responsivenes compared to sony. I cannot recommend it more - it has all the sony has + better responsivness, better screen, better battery life (yes, I have tested this), better camera minus bloatware. I got all of this for paying 50 eur more. That was my second and last phone from sony. After having sony xperia S for 1 week and returning it because of wifi problems and after trying xperia sp and again returning it because of crappily written firmware I really wonder what are people at sony thinking about. People, don't you see that sony does not give a **bleep** about customer satisfaction after getting their money? Of course, you can downgrade manually, but don't forget that this voids your warranty - staff at service centre would be more than glad to tell you you have just voided your warranty because you brought them phone that you had to downgrade because of crapilly written UPgrade!. In addition to that downgrade means spending your a couple of hours of your precious time correcting mistakes of multinational corporation that simply does not give a **bleep**. Throw your sony into trash instead, and use those hours to earn money with which you can buy new phone that will actually work.

Iphone 4 personal Hotspot not working after update to IOS 7.1 India BSNL cellular

Iphone 4 personal Hotspot not working after update to IOS 7.1 India BSNL cellular

BSNL is not a supported carrier. Personal Hotspot requires carrier support and provisioning of the account to enable it. iOS 7.1 disabled the ability to manually configure Personal Hotspot on unsupported carriers.

HT1688 My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1. Service is with ATT. Apple says problem is with ATT, ATT says problem is with Apple. Anyone else having this problem?

My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1. Any suggestions?

Ok, I had the same issue, my phone is unlocked(iphone 5 with 6.1.3). So I went to the apple store and had it replaced. it worked good for a day and started doing the same thing. When the apple tech replaced my phone, he transfered my screen protector to the new one.
so I thought it was my sim card, I put in my sisters sim card from a different carrier and it did the same, so then I was like let me take off the screen protector, and that was it.
so guys, if you have a screen protector on your phone and it's doing "low signal", "No Service", "Searching", "Full bars cycle" then take off the screen protector. so far my phone is working normal.
