    Try something really simple.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Or try this. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    Or try this as well. Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On. Make sure it is set to On.
    @Freckles888 ..... I really doubt that "millions of others" are having this problem. I think that news would be all over the airwaves and Apple would be taking more heat about it that we can imagine.

    iPad 2 gets activation errors in FaceTime and messages,plus Facebook app opens and then closes

    Using the battery level meter in this manner is comparable to using your car's fuel gauge to calculate miles per gallon. The only thing that matters is the total amount of operating time from full charge to auto-shutdown.
    Use the wall-mount charger that came with the iPad and charge overnight.  Do NOT use an iPod/iPhone charger.  Do NOT use a computer's USB port.  Then, operate it normally until auto shut-down (ignore any low level alerts that may appear).  An irony is that doing that test to determine the total operating time is also the procedure necessary to calibrate the battery level meter.
    I'm not claiming that you do not have a problem.  I am stating, however, that we don't yet know.  If the above test does, in fact, indicate a problem, read this.
    Also, according to Apple:
    Use Your iPad Regularly
    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
    Elsewhere, Apple elaborates and explains that two half-discharges (or four quarter-discharges, etc.) equals one full discharge.

  • Activation error on FaceTime and Messages on iPad Air with new Apple ID

    I have successfully configured my 2014 MBP, 2010 Macbook Air, and iPhone 6 to use the new Apple ID. I found a service bulletin from Dec 22, 2014 entitled "If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime". It doesn't strictly apply because I cannot turn off FaceTime and Messages since they are not turned on. I have IOS 8.1.2 on the ipad. I have tried 'reset all settings' and 'erase all content and settings'. I have also tried reloading 8.1.2 from iTunes, all to no avail.  Is it a problem with an Apple Server? Is there anything that I can do?

    Actually there is likely nothing that you can do since the program is free apps per device and your relative has basically stolen your free apps.

  • HT204380 FaceTime Activation An error occurred during activation

    Trying to log into FaceTime on a new iPod Touch. When I enter my apple id and pass, I get the following error message. "FaceTime Activation...An error occurred during activation. Try Again." I know the apple id and pass are correct, any suggestions.

    You may have tried this already, but I was having this same issue too, I messed with it for about an hour, then restarted my phone and signed in again and it worked. Hope it works for you too.

  • Facetime activity in console Macbook Air

    I found Facetime activity in console on my Macbook Air. I have never used Facetime and nobody else has access to this Macbook as it is a work laptop. I have never used Facetime on any other device that I use my Apple ID for. Is there another app that accesses Facetime or is this an update? I don't want my employer to think that I am using Facetime on my company Macbook. Here is an excerpt from console of what I have found:

    Monagle,
    Make sure that you have the date and time set properly on your MacBook Air.  If the timezone settings are off, Facetime will not work.  I surely hope that you can FT with your relatives in the "old Sod" before Christmas is over.

    I upgraded from the 4s to the 5s on Tuesday and requested my O2 number be carried over to my new EE contract. Everything has been carried over fine but i have been unable to switch on Imessage and Facetime, Error message shows 'Waiting for Activation' I've done the the resets and followed the instructions from the Apple Help page but still can't get it to switch on??

    If you say you have done everything in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268, then you should probably contact your carrier for their advice.

  • Strange Facetime activation error

    I have followed with interest the issues surrounding Facetime activation problems. I have one I have not yet seen. My new IPOD Touch G4 will not activate facetime. I get the most unusual error message:
    unable to verify email because it is already in use
    Anyone have any train of thought on what this could be?
    thanks

    Perhaps it is because the same email address was inadvertently registered with a different password.
    I would try using another email address, even if you have to create a new one.
