FaceTime and iMessage won't let me log in

My FaceTime and iMessage have been working perfectly normal. The other day I went to FaceTime a friedn and it said to 'Get Started' like when you first set it up. I clicked sign in. Then it came up with my email address to make sure that that was the email address that I wanted to use. I clicked Next and it said 'Verifying'. It verified for about 10 seconds and then it went back to the page before. Where I had to long in. The same thing is happening with my iMessage.
I really want my FaceTime and iMessage to work without resetting my iPod Touch.

Hi there I had the same problem and searched Yahoo UK & Ireland and they had the answer that worked for me.  Seemed strange but it worked for both Facetime and iMessage.  Here it is below:
"For people having this problem on iPod/iPhone/iPad I have an iPad and had this problem and quickly found out how to solve it. Go into settings>general>time and date and there's a button that says set automatically. Flick that button off and on a few times then leave it on and try and sign in iMessage/FaceTime ect.. Problem fixed.. This is caused because when people play games and change the date to gain coins cash ect faster all your apple goes down."
Hope this helps.

  • Facetime and IMessages won't allow me to sign in using apple ID

    Everything is up to date, the password is correct, the wifi is strong and logged on.  I cannot get either one of these to connect.  I've even tried changing the DNS like others have suggested.  I've already reset to factory settings and made a new ID.  This is my daughter's ipod and the only way she has to keep in touch with her friends.  Please help!

  • My Apple ID and password won't let me log into MobileMe

    Aloha, I need help ASAP. I had made a home page for my business in June, 2011.  I didn't touch it for one month, now it won't let me log in with Apple ID and the original pass word.  It requests me to create a new pass word, so I did many times.  Still no result.  HEEEEEEEEELP!

    Is this what you are trying to do...
    Settings > iTunes and App Store > Apple ID = Sign Out...
    Then Sign In using the preferred Apple ID.
    Note:
    Anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID

    Hey Lakedrive442,
    It sounds like you have changed your Apple ID which you use with iTunes.  If so there are several places you may need to update it as outlined in this article.

    Of course some might not apply, but many might.

  • FaceTime and iMessage won't stay signed in

    HI everyone,
    This is a problem that has been bothering me for a few months. My family shares one iCloud account, which we use to make purchases all to one credit card. I also have my own Apple ID that I use for iMessage and FaceTime. Lately, however, my iPad has not been letting me stay signed in. The default Apple ID it gives me when I want to log in is my family ID. It has this in the username, so I delete it all, type my own in, and type my password. Then it says I'm logged in, but if I leave the page and come back it will go back to wanting me to sign in using my family account. if anyone can help me out that'd be great. Also this is when I'm trying to sign in through Settings. If I go through iMessage, it just straight up won't sign me in.
    Thanks tons!

    Hi ayyyschultzy,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you have a different Apple ID and want to use that as default instead of the family's account. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

  • IMessage won't let me log in

    For some reason, yesterday morning my iMessage acted as if I were a new user and told me to sign in or create a new account. So, I typed in my info and clicked submit. But, it took about 30 seconds to submit and then came to a popup that said: "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." I've tried it a bunch and it still won't work. My network connection is just fine and just to make sure, I even reset my modem and router and still nothing. My push notifications aren't working either and 1 or 2 of my apps aren't connecting to the servers. What's going on?? Is there something wrong with Apple or is it just me? PLEASE HELP ME!! I NEED TO SEND SOME MESSAGES!!

    IIIaass link helped me.  I too reset to factory the day before.  Now I went to Settings>Face Time and logged in.  That seems to have solved the problem for me.
    I then went to Messages and made sure iMessage and Send Read Receipts were both turned on.  But It was logging into Face Time that seemed to do the trick.

    Hello there, Gwald.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers some great recommendations for troubleshooting your issue:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    Specific to iPad are the following:
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • FaceTime (and Message) won't let me sign in

    First, let me say that I use my Apple ID regularly, so it's not a matter of forgetting what it is! But neither FaceTime nor Message will let me sign in. Tried doing so first from the application itself, then went to Settings to do it there. Still unable to sign in and so 'verify' the account.
    Everything else on my iPad is functioning fine, my wifi connection works smoothly, etc.

    Check your date and time settings.
    Settings>General>Date & Time>Set Automatically>On

  • I changed my email address, and it won't let me log on Spotify?

    So I changed my email address on the spotify website, and right when I tried to go on spotify to log on, and it says that it has an incorrect username/password? I've tried everything I could, and it doesn't work? so I tried creating a new user with the email I have, but it says that the email I'm using is taken. But when I log on the Email it says that it's not verified? I'm confused. Can someone help me with this?

    It's pretty frustrating! because I have no idea how to fix it. And I had a lot of new music I added on there.
