After updating to IOS7.0.3 I can't send or receive iMessages, After updating to IOS7.0.3 I can't send or receive iMessages

I updated my phone yesterday to IOS7.0.3 and now I cannot send or receive iMessages. My phone is also now very slow at responding. It's annoying because I red that they created this update to solve the same problem that people had when they updated the last time. But my phone was fine before yesterday,extremely frustrating.

Update to the current version of iOS.
Ensure that your iMessage is set to receive messages at your phone number or whatever address it was previously set to.
Also, ensure your iMessage is actually activated. My partner had a similar issue earlier this week where iMessage unexplainably disabled itself and then when re-activating it did not actually reactivate. Once the device was switched to a working data connection (other Internet connectivity issues were occurring at the time) iMessage activated fine.

Cannot sync Ipad after updating to ios7! Please help!

I just updated my family's Ipad, called "Soy's iPad" to ios7. I created a backup on my iTunes account just before I updated. Now, when trying to sync my Ipad after downloading ios7 iTunes gives me the error:
"The iPad "Soy's iPad" could not be synched because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPad.
To authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store choose Store > Authorize this Computer."
So I authorize the computer and iTunes gives me the message "This computer has already been authroized." So, naturally, I try to sync the iPad again. It gives me the same "computer is no longer authorized" error message. It's an infinite loop. Please help me get my data back on my iPad.
Signing out and then back in to iTunes does not help either. Also, under my iTunes account under manage devices, Soy's iPad does not even show up as one of my devices anymore. How to I add my iPad back as an authroized device on my Apple ID?
Is anybody else having this error?
Any help would be greatly appreciated since there are many cherished memories along with important data on my family's iPad. Please help me get my iPad working again!

Your iPad is not syncing with iTunes now and before it does start to sync and before you create a backup that overwrites the current backup that holds all of your data and camera roll photos, you should probably turn off autosync. I should have thought of that before, but if the iPad isn't syncing, no damage has been done.
Launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. Check the box at the bottom that says - Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from automatically syncing. Click OK.
If it doesn't make that much difference to anybody, you could try deleting the app and see if that will let you sync after you delete it. You will lose all of your progress in the game if you delete it, but - if you did create a backup before you updated - then your game progress should be included in that backup.
BTW, did you try restoring from the backup that you created before you updated, and then try to sync with iTunes? Restoring form that backup should restore the old settings that were on the iPad and the iPad was syncing properly while using those settings.

CANNOT RECEIVE MESSAGES AFTER UPDATE iOS5

this is soo frustrating....any help will be much appreciated!!!!

OK, I've discussed this problem extensively with my brother who is somewhat of a Mac expert (30 years in his Mac based recording studio). He thinks there might be a link between the Quicktime update and the mail problem, since mail uses quicktime (quicktime messages open right in the mail window).
I wasted a whole day on this yesterday and even reinstalled Tiger from my original disk, then did the updates. Tried mail, same problem. Something in my mail on that ONE computer is telling my server to reject my outgoing mail attempts. Finding someone in Roadrunner (my isp) tech who knows anything about Macs is virtually impossible.
I'm on my eMac at home right now. We moved to the country last March and I have not done any of the updates since then because dial up won't stay connected long enough for Apple's HUGE update files. Guess what.... no problems with my mail (or anything else) on this Mac.
Today I will start over by reinstalling my original Tiger, then go through the painfully slow process of downloading and installing the system updates UP TO the one that came out last week. I guess I could buy some Apple tech support and try to solve the problem THEY created! I'm trying to run a freakin' business here... I really don't have time for this! Thanks a lot Apple!

After updating with ios7, I cannot proceed because I cannot enter my password since it uses Greek letters but the keyboard available is Latin. How can I change the keyboard to Greek?

After updating with ios7, I cannot proceed because I cannot enter my password since it uses Greek letters but the keyboard available is Latin. How can I change the keyboard to Greek?

try tapping holding on the key that would be most similar to the letter you want to enter, that will bring up a menu of other characters similar to that character and maybe the greek letter will be included in that menu

HT5594 After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.

After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone 4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.

I finally just resolved this after not being able to enable location services since upagrading to iOS 7. Posting the solution here 'cause I couldn't find it anywhere else.
I enabled Restrictions under Settings > General > Restrictions and created a passcode (I'm not sure if this was part of the solution, but it wasn't enabled for me by default.)
In Restrictions, under Privacy, Location Services was set to "Allow Changes" (This still didn't solve the issue of the greyed-out Location Services switch though - I still couldn't turn it on.)
Also in Restrictions, I also switched "Find My Friends" to "Allow Changes"
Once I did step 3, the switch under Settings > Privacy > Location Services was no longer greyed out and could be switched on.
Hope this helps!

Cannot activate iMessage after iOS update.

Cannot activate iMessage after iOS update. "Activation unsuccessful" I cannot activate it.

Have you updated your iOS to 5.1? Just confirming as it says "iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1" in your thread.
Double check if you have credit in your mobile in order to activate iMessage.
Turn iMessage off and on again, than turn off your phone (long press display off and on button) and slide to turn off. Turn your phone back on, enter your "Apple I.D" in the iMessage window and wait till it verifies everything.
Tell us if it solves the issue.

Cannot connect to server with icloud after updating to ios7 in iphone 4s

icloud will not connect to server after updating to ios7 on my iphone4. I have spoken to tech support and the response was that the server is crashing because of all the activity. Sounds pretty lame to me. With a company as large as Apple, this really is unacceptable. I have tried everything I can think of to get this to work, but to no avail.

voicemail is a carrier feature, so contact verizon.

Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I can not find an album for photos before 2012.

Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone5 after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I cannot find an album or year for photos before 2012 (in the photo app). The iphone says the photo content is there when I check in "about" under general in settings. So the pictures seem to be somewhere but I just can't access from from the photo app. Any suggestions. I also know that they were there before the iOS7 upgrade as I was looking for a pre 2012 picture last week and it we there.

Trouble after updating to ios7

After updating to ios7, I can't use imessaging and get notifications to connect to iTunes to use push notifications...I don't have a computer I can use to restore my phone...what do I do?

I have the same problem as you. iMessage has been "waiting for activation" over 12 hours now, and I get the same message everytime I use an app that requires notifications. You can restore from an iCloud backup, if you had iCloud backups enabled. Restoring the phone might fix it, but this is likely related to server problems which Apple usually experiences during an upgrade. Many people are having this issue.

I lost lots of apps after updating to ios7. Can I go back to ios6?

I lost lots of apps after updating to ios7. I hate the look of it and I think it is not as easy to use. Can I go back to ios6?

Hi,
You cannot. It's not supported by Apple actually, so if you downgrade they cannot help you.
However, make sure that all your apps are not in a different page, so keep swiping to the left just in case they are hidden at a first glance.
You can use the App store app to download all your purchased items.

Cannot receive iMessages on iPhone

I have an iPhone with iOS 8.1.2 and a MacBook Pro (OSX Yosemite). My problem is the following: I cannot receive iMessages on my iPhone. However, if I send iMessages from my iPhone or Mac, they are received normally and I do receive iMessages on my Mac. The behaviour for text messages (SMS) is normal. Moreover, when somebody (including myself) sends me iMessages, I can see the three dots that appear when somebody is typing long after they stop typing and for a longer period of time.
In order to fix my issues I tried the following:
deactivate and reactivate iMessages
deactivate text forwarding to my MacBook
restarted iPhone
reset network settings on my iPhone
reset all settings on my iPhone
delete conversations and users
removed and re-added Send & Receive addresses
Erase all content and settings
Out of these options only the last worked but only as long as I didn't restore the backup. As soon as I restored the last backup, the problem came back. I cannot figure out whether this is an issue with my iMessage setting on the iPhone, iCloud settings or something else.
Does anyone know how I can fix this problem and have my content & settings back?

My problem was suddenly fixed with no action on my behalf.
