Try signing into iMessage and FT and I get "an error occurred during activation, try again"
I get text messages from non iphone users but when someone with an iphone send s me a message, I don't get it. So I checked my settings under imessage and it says I'm not logged in. When I try to login, it says, "An error occurred during activation, try again." Nothing is wrong with my internet connection and I can download apps just fine. I went to Settings>Store and logged out of my account and logged back in and still have that problem. Any suggestions?

I cannot activate Imessage on my iphone 4. When I enter my Apple ID it keeps coming up with 'An error occurred during avtivation. Try again' Can anybody help ?
It seems a lot of people are having this problem...you can try restarting your device, making sure Date & Time settings are on automatic, or changing your DNS to 8.8.8.8. However, most people posting about this problem have tried everything including data resets, restores, etc. and it doesn't seem to work. It seems to be an issue on Apple's end with the servers...hopefully they can resolve it quickly

Please can somebody help me? My imessage does not work, I try to activate it but it says an error ocurred during activation. try again
Its possible that the server can be down now. Have you ever used it before? If you want, try resseting the phone by just holding the sleep/wake key and the home button together for 10 seconds. Then wait 5 seconds when it turns off and press the sleep/wake button to turn it back on. Then try it again. Let me know what the results are.

Turn off iMessage and FaceTime and restart
Go to Settings > Messages and turn off iMessage.
Go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off FaceTime.
Restart your device.
Turn iMessage and FaceTime back on.
Still not activated after an hour?
It might take a few minutes to activate iMessage and FaceTime. If you've waited more than an hour, try these steps:
Make sure that your device has the latest version of iOS.
If you're using an iPhone, contact your carrier to make sure that you can receive SMS messages.
Contact Apple Support. -

I cannot sign in FaceTime , it keeps on saying an error occurred during activation, please sign in again
Hey!
I too was facing the same problem but have found a solution for it. The problem is most likely because of the 'Date & Time' setting. Change to setting to 'Set Automatically' and then try reconnecting to facetime/imessage.
Hope this helps you as it did to me. -

When responding to an e-mailed invitation to join a Photo Stream I eventually get to a message stating " A problem occurred. Please try again later" Havng tried several times I still get the same message. What am I doing wrong?
I have solved my problem although I do not understand why !!! I simply asked my son (who sent the original invitation) to send it again but to my iCloud address (which is known to iPhoto) and it worked. I don't know if this might be of use to anyone else but you never know. (Who said computers, even Apple, don't have a "magic" chip buried somewhere inside them ).
