Can't get iMessage to work on my iPad 2
iMessage used to work until iOS 6 came out and now it doesn't work on my ipad. I have tried several times to reset iMessage and reenter my apple id and tried all three addresses, .me, .icloud, and phone number but it fails. I have my ipad tethered to my iphone and it is passeing other data with other apps but iMessage will not work. Anyone have a clue how to fix this?
Have the same problem. Don't verified any e-mail. iOS 6.0.1 - unstable system.
Steve, are you looking for it??? Why you disappear?

Is there a way to reset my messages account, I can't get iMessage to work on IPad nor Mac osx. Help please this is really frustrating.
Hi,
Is there an iPhone involved ?
If not, what happens if you remove the Apple ID on the iPad and then set it in Airplane Mode (allow a couple of minutes at this point) followed by re-adding the Apple ID ?
What, if any error messages are appearing on the Mac when you try to launch the App or Login to the iMessages server ?
Is the Apple ID linked to an iCloud account ?
In Messages 7 (Mountain Lion) this did not seem to be important but it seems it is in Mavericks/Messages 8

I'm can't get iMessage to work with all my Apple devices.
So i cant seem to get iMessage to work across all my Apple devices. My wife and I use the same Apple ID but have different phone numbers. Is there a way to get all our messages on our shared devices and our personal messages on our phones? (iPad, iMac, MacBook Pro: Shared)
Hi,
I have this set up with one Mac and two iPhones (Not Multiple Macs)
I added the Apple ID to the Mac for iMessages.
I then added the Apple ID to the first iPhone.
I accepted the pop ups on the Mac so that the iPhone was Listed in Receive At (you might have to Restart the App on the Mac to trigger this).
I then added the Apple ID to the Second iPhone and again accepted the pop ups in the Mac.
IF this is what you think you did but it is not working remove the Apple ID from both iPhones
Place the iPhones in Airplane mode fro a few minutes to Break with the server.
when back in normal mode and in Settings > Messages check the iPhone number is ticked and active.
(Send a Test message to the Apple ID (Mac) to check)
Add back the Apple ID if the test works.
Restart the Mac version to trigger the pop ups and Accept.
Repeat the set up with tests for send iPhone.
I have never set this up with one ID on two or more computers but it should work.

I have a go daddy email account and I can't get it to work on my iPad
Try turning the email account off and then turn it on again. Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>select your gmail account>Off. Go to the mail app and then come back to the account in the settings and turn it on again.
If you can't find any other way for the iPad to accept the password, delete the email account and then add it back onto the iPad. -

Be sure to follow the special instructions.
You will also probably need to run the un-installer first to clean up the old files. -

Have you tried everything here?

Why does it not work? What is happening? Are you positive you are trying to message somebody else who has an iOS device running iOS 5 or later and is registered to use iMessages?

Can some people give me advice on how to fix my situation? My iMessage wasn't working yesterday so I turned it off and back on and it's said it was activating iMessage and now it is not logging in and it comes up with log in unsuccessful and I depend on iMessage back I use it on my iPhone an iPad and it doesn't let me use it on my iPad either.
It is probably still worth while taking it to an Apple store for a possible OOW replacement and let them make the decision, as it was broken before the OP took the back off.
See note below...
