Cant set facetime  on my ipad gets as far as verifying email then stops

i tried using facetime on my ipad 2 when enter everything and sign in ,i get verifying email then it goes back to sign in again .

I have the same problem. Unfortunately, the troubleshooting link you added has the first step listed as "Verify that FaceTime is enabled in FaceTime > Preferences" which we (the original poster and I) can't do as our Preferences are greyed out. We can't click on them to verify anything.
In FaceTime itself it's verified my apple id (also double checked via the site) and then it says the email is "verified" but then it freezes and after a minute or so it says "Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again."
After checking the network connection, it still doesn't work. It's rather frustrating as it all worked fine until about a week or two ago.
Any help would be appreciated.

  • When attempting to synch my Ipad2 to MACBOOK synch gets as far as step 5 then gives message: Unable to snchronize IPad  do nt have sufficient rights.  Using Itunes 10.4 on a MAC

    As of today synchronization fails between my Ipad2 and MacBook using ITunes 10.4.  Synch gets as far as step 5 then advises me that I do not have sufficient rights. It seems this is when it is trying to copy from the IPad to the MacBook hard drive but I am not certain of that fact.
    Thank you

    Plenty of space.  I think I may have tracked it down to a ITune U item that was downloaded directly to th IPad while on the road. I have deleted the seemingly offensive item from the IPad and it seemed to have fixed the problem. I will know for sure later today when I try to synch again. I will keep you informed.

  • IPad cannot backup without a verified email address--LOCKED

    Message pops up after lock screen that says:
    "iPad cannot backup without a verified email address"
    with the options of LATER and SETTINGS.  I usually select LATER button and move on.  This time it is locked up.  I tried a hard rest by pressing the home button and power/ sleep button but nothing happens. 
    I have not setup an iCloud account, and have not set up to sync with a Mac or PC. 
    Please help. 

    Thanks JimHdk,
    Can't get to the settings due to the error message.  It will not allow me to select an option. 
    I do believe that a hard reset is the answer, and i am able to go through to the black out screen, but the Apple logo is not coming up. 
    If I am unable to accmplish a hard reset today I may just have to make an appointment at the genius bar.

    hi barbara
    thank you for your response, i appreciate it.  there's definitely nothing wrong with the mouse or trackpad, both work fine in every other application....i can also easily change size dimensions in other programs on my computer so it doesn't seem to be that either.  it seems like there is something weird going on in the way that pse and my mac are interacting with each other, just wish i knew what it was.    thank you again, wish me luck!

  • I have recently started syncing to iCloud on my laptop and iPad.  It starts to sync and then stops and I get the message:  you do not have permission to sync this folder.  I do what it asks but cannot get past that folder?  Help!

    I have recently started using iCloud on my laptop syncing it with my iPad.  When the syncing process starts it stops and gives me a message something like:  You do not have permission to sync this folder.  Then it wants me to unlock and gives other suggestions.  I have done them all and still cannot get the syncing process past this folder.  I is a folder in my documents.  Anyone have any solutions?

  • I cannot get iOS 7.1.2 to download on my iPad or iPhones.  It begins and then stops. Says connection is interrupted, but each of about 10 efforts has ended the same way.

    When I connect my iPad or iPhones the system responds by saying an update to iOS 7.1.2 is available.  After trying about ten times on three different instruments, I get the same result -- a start, then failure at about 1/2 the way through (15-20 minutes).

    Looks as though my cable provider's repairs to the system may be interfering with my signal.  Since I am the only one reporting this problem, since I've never had it before, and since the cable company's repair trucks are in the area, maybe that's the problem.

  • I do not know how to install Firefox 4.0; I get as far as Setup and then I am lost.

    Fonts are handled by your operating system and installed through the respective System Control panel (Windows) or Fontbook (Mac). On Windows simply type "Fonts" in the search bar in the start menu and when you open the panel/ folder use File --> Add Font. On Mac the procedures are similar, you just need to find the Fontbook app in Applications:Utilities.

    My iPad charges for a minute or so then it stops... I reconnect the charger, it still continues doing the same thing... Any way out pls....

    Hello there, batulububa.
    The following Knowledge Base article although written for iPhone can be used in troubleshooting your iPad battery issue:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Specifically the following:
    Battery does not charge from the USB power adapter
    Important: Only original iPhone can be charged from a FireWire-based power source. If iPhone is connected to a computer that's turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the battery may drain.
    Verify that the outlet being used is working.
    Try another USB power adapter if available.
    If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
    Try another USB cable if available.
    Also refer to iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro D.

  • HT201320 I changed my email address and password and now cannot get it set up on my iPad-keeps telling me its verifying and no mail comes through

    I added the new email account per the instructions above and still cannot get it to work.  It appears that everything is setup properly, however, no mail comes through.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

  • Recently purchased the movie Wolverine in HD but i cant play it on my ipad for more than ten seconds without it stopping. Can someone explain what can i do.

    Im having trouble watching a movie on my ipad and it wont play on my computer because its not HD. My ipod wont take the new movie into its drive whne i try to sync it. Is there something Im not doing.

    it is now set just 2 bars after the 15 minute mark....i'm gonna leave it here as it defaulted to this after i restarted it.  it's probably not optimal, but it'll work for now.  both slide bars have the cursor set between 15 mins and 1 hour (closer to the 15 minute mark actually).  if i have issues, i will try something different.  do you have any idea what caused this to begin with?  i didn't actually touch these preferences at all.

  • What can I do to get my ID to work.  The error code I get is Unable to verify email because it is already in use.  Where do I go to find out who or on what program it is being used?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • TS3274 iPad starts to download imap emails then stops, like it is stuck

    My iPad recently stopped downloading incoming emails from my imap account. It will download my sent mail, drafts, etc. the bar at the bottom comes up and shows downloading 1 of 20 . Then it stops. It seems like it is stuck. I have no problems with my yahoo account, it's just one account and only my incoming mail. Help!

    Have you tried a Reset? [Hold the Home (bottom centre) and Sleep/Wake (top right edge) buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe

  • Still getting 553 error after verifying email addr...

    Even after having verified a new email address using the email sent from BT/Yahoo I still get the 553 Error stating that the email address needs to be verified. I am going around in circles. Anyone else had this problem? I am using Outlook 2010.

    Observer wrote:
    I'm having the same issue -- unsolvable 553 errors.   One part of the system claims my addresses are verified, another part claims they are not verified.
    I have done everything possible listed in BT Yahoo help guide, and more:
    1/  We have 10 addresses on personal doimains which work OK for sending email via mail.btinternet.com from our master account ([email protected]) via Outlook 2003 SP3
    2/  We had a number of additional verified addresses which until recently worked OK via sub accounts ([email protected] and [email protected])
    3/  Some months ago, when BT Yahoo changed the system in some way, the previously-verified addresses in the sub accounts stopped working and started getting 553 errors
    4/ I have tried ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING I can find suggested in the help system to get these additional addresses to send via mail.btinternet.com, but they still get 553 errors
        The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

    5/ I have further fresh new addresses, and verified them, and got the confirmation message. But they still get 553 errors
    6/ The BT Yahoo system claims that these email addresses have been verified OK
       Thanks Xxxxx! Your email address has now been verified.
        You have successfully added an email address to your BT Yahoo! account.
    7/  But the addresses only work for sending via BT Yahoo webmail
    8/ They DO NOT work for sending via Outlook through mail.btinternet.com – they always get a 553 message saying they are not verified
                    553 From address not verified - see http://www.btyahoo.com/verify
    9/ I have tried sending via Outlook 2003 SP3 on two computers, and via Outlook 2007 on a third computer – all get 553 errors
    10/ I have downloaded and used MDBVU32, and there is no stuck Read Receipt
    11/ Several years ago, when BT Yahoo started giving 553 errors, I discovered that BT Yahoo verification has a memory – you can only create a fixed 10 in an account, and if you delete one of the ten and substitute a new address, the substitute will get 553 errors whatever you do to verify it. But you can reinstate the original.  This does not seem to be documented in the help system.
    12/ This means I cannot simply swap in a newly-verified address to the master account, or an existing sub account which has reached 10
    13/ Hence I have created a fresh new sub account, and in that I have created fresh new email addresses (so there is no memory effect), and verified them.
    14/  But whatever I do they STILL get 553 errors, even after http://www.btyahoo.com/verify has told me they have been verified.

    Hi.
    You've done pretty much everything, and covered all bases. Indeed my shortcuts (option 0e) which was written before the BT version still contains more and better info that the BT one. Indeed your points 11 and 12 were certainly correct at the time as I had also pointed out.
    However the system has indeed altered recently, actually making it easier to verify and delete items.
    I usually mention for folk to pop to :-
    https://edit.yahoo.com/commchannel/manage
    entering the relevant full BTinternet email address as the Yahoo! ID. You may see entries hidden in the usual email verification area.
    However I do feel that there are some problems with the system, which may actually manifest itself in the results you are seeing.
    I've not personally had any errors myself, and have tried various things over the years too. None of my stuff has failed.
    You may like to drop me an email via my shortcuts option 0e and I'll see if I can help further.
