Face time on iPod Touch 4G 5.1.1 os won't log in

We have tried everything to get Face Time to work. Every time we enter our Apple ID we get the same error, You were signed out of face time because your Apple ID  or password changed. Sign in to turn on Face time.
We have entered the correct information but still get the same error message. I know we are using the correct Apple ID because I was able to log in with my Mac and type this message.
We have done a full factory restore but to no avail.
Can anybody help me and my son get his Face time working again?

Hi BBChris,
Here are a couple of troubleshooting tips from the Apple site:
Verify that the date and time are set correctly on your iOS device or Mac.
The Apple ID you are using to register FaceTime on iPad, iPod touch, or FaceTime for Mac must be an email address.
If your Apple ID is not an email address, you can change it on appleid.apple.com. This article provides instructions on how to change the Apple ID.
Also, here is a link to the Facetime support site. Probably a lot of info you already know, but there may be something in the Troubleshooting that will help:

Good luck!
Cheers,

  • No face time on iPod touch 5

    when i buy my iPod touch 5 i didn't find face time in the home screen or setting . how can i use it ?

    Missing FaceTime app
    If you are unable to use FaceTime or locate the FaceTime app on your iPad 2 or later or iPod touch (4th generation) or later, try the following:
    If FaceTime is not available in Settings: Note that FaceTime may not be available on devices purchased or used in certain countries, including Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
    In Settings > General > Restrictions, verify FaceTime and Camera are On. Disabling Camera also disables FaceTime.
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Restore your device:
    Back up your device to iCloud or iTunes.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
    Note: This will erase all user data from your device.
    When complete, configure your device by selecting your region and language and then restore your data using the iCloud or iTunes backup.
    Note: When setting up and restoring a backup from iTunes, ensure that your computer's language, country, and date and time are set correctly.
    If you still cannot locate the FaceTime app, try turning it on at Settings > FaceTime.

  • Unable to Face Time with Ipod Touch 4th Generation

    We have 2 4th generation Ipod Touch's.  When Face Timing each other, only one can initiate the call and connect successfully.  Say Ipod A FaceTimes with Ipod B, but can't connect.  It just rings on Ipod A and does not ring on Ipod B.  When Ipod B initiates FaceTime with Ipod A it will connect successfully.  Now Ipod A can initiate FaceTime with Ipod B successfully but only after B connected with A first.  Confused yet?!?!
    I tried to recycle power; turn wi fi on / off; turn face time on / off; sign out of the Apple ID account etc.  This only causes one to work and the other to not when both are powered up at the same time.
    Again, once one of them can successfully connect then they both can FaceTime each other.
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    Hi lllaass
    I am still and will be staying on 3.1.2. I am not ruining my iPod's battery life and WiFi connection by upgrading to iOS4. No app is worth that!
    Normally updates of the apps that now requires a newer version of the iOS will not show up on the Touch.
    Reading through the other thread suggested by CeeZeeCZ I can see that this is a common problem these days.
    Thanks Apple. Stellar as usual!

  • Face Time - "This ipod is restricted from creating Face Time Accounts"

    Since uploading iso6 the ipod touch has the following message when selecting Face Time "This iPod touch is restricted from creating Face Time accounts. I have tried switching off/on. I have reviewed the restrictions and it is not restricted. The message above will not even allow me to 'get started'? although previous to iso6 Face Time was fine...... any help apreciated.       

    I have not seen that problem. All I can suggest is the standard fixes:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: 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
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Deletion of multiple songs at one time on iPod Touch

    Does anyone know a way to delete multiple song at one time on iPod Touch? For some reason, there is anywhere from 3-5 of each song in my library and I REALLY don't want to have to delete 2000 songs one by one! Please help!!!

    if you click 'file' in itunes, there is an option to 'show duplicates' this will bring up any songs which have duplicates in your library and make it easier for you to delete. unfortunately you will have to do it manually, but if you highlight several at once you wont have to hit delete too many times.

    i have started the guided access and that time my ipod touch 3 battery gets over now i cant close my ipod or cannot restore it

    Without knowing what happens when you try to restore the iPod
    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Itunes doesn't open when my ipod touch 4g is connected, consequently it won't charge or sync

    itunes doesn't open when my ipod touch 4g is connected, consequently it won't charge or sync

    I was surprised too, but I guess nobody gave a cr*p. I figured it out on my own. Basically, sync, then uncheck the box for the option to open iTunes when that iPod is hooked up, sync again, then check the box, and sync one last time. A dialog box pops up that asks if it's OK to install "iTunes Helper". Say "yes". Now it works.

  • IPod touch stopped working when charging now won't turn on at all

    iPod touch stopped working when charging now won't turn on at all

    Try in order:
    - After charging or half an hour, reset the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and if it shows in iTunes, restore the iPod via iTunes.
    - See if placing the iPod in recovory mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since you likely have a hardware problem.

  • I tried to restore my iPod Touch 2nd generation and now it won't sync to itunes.  on the screen it shows the usb end of the cord and the iTunes logo over it.  Is it broken?

    I tried to restore my ipod touch 2nd generation  and now it won't sync to itunes.    On the screen is the USB end of the cord and the iTunes logo over it.
    I have turned it off and on,  held the off button down and  the select button down but it still comes up with that picture on the screen.    Have I broken it?
    Please help.

    It means the device is in recovery mode.  You'll need to reconnect it to iTunes and restore it again.
    You may need to connect it in recovery mode manually using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • ICal Syncing Wrong Times with Ipod Touch or iPhone - Everything 2 Hours Off

    Every setting is uniform across all devices (timezones, etc) and yet iCal on my iPod touch or iPhone lists my scheduled events 2 hours earlier than what I inputed on my computer. The iCal calendar on Snow Leopard is correct, but my synced devices are not.
    What gives? This is a HUUUGEEE issue for someone that uses their schedule book to get through each day. iCal is TOTALLY UNRELIABLE with this issue.

    I have almost exactly the same problem. The ical on my macbook has the correct times, but on my ipod touch all events appear one hour earlier. Both devices are set to Geneva time, and the time displayed on them is the same.
    This is really annoying as I am about to set off travelling, and was just going to take my touch for schedule - now I either have to pack my macbook or do everything the good old fashioned pen and paper way.
    Can anyone help?

  • Music vanishes all the time from iPod touch using the iTunes App...

    Hi
    I am often not near a computer and prefer to purchase music for my iPod Touch from the iTunes app on the Touch itself. This has worked fine for many months. I believe my iPod is a 3rd gen. However lately I suddently noticed that some music purchased recently was completely missing from the iPod, even some songs purchased as part of an album just vanished... the rest of the album songs were still there, but a couple of random ones had just gone.
    Now, every time I try and purchase and download something from the iTunes App (I literally just tried it again) it just doesn't appear in the purchased playlist.. or anywhere on my iPod in fact.
    Essentially, I've wasted my money on buying songs that just don't appear. I've also noticed that the music search chugs a lot these days, as if there's some sort of background problem.
    I recently upgraded the software (with multitasking etc) but the problem hasn't been fixed.
    This is a really frustrating issue, and I have purchased several songs twice and got nothing! So really keen to see if anyone has seen it before and if they can please help me?
    I've tried deleting apps, restarting the iPod... when I try and sync with the PC, the purchases are nowhere to be seen. It's all a bit disappointing really!
    I'm on a 64Gig iPod touch and have 41 Gig showing as available!
    Please help, I've searched for hours and got nothing on this specific issue.
    Thanks

    hmmm nobody can help me? Is this because nobody wants to tell me I've wasted my money?
