FaceTime error message

everytime i try to log in to FaceTime i get "The server encountered an error processing registration.  Please try again later."  it works fine on my iPad... any help?

Hi there,
This often occurs if you double click on the FaceTime icon in the dock. The resolution is to click on the icon just once. Take a look at the article below for some more information.
OS X: "An internal FaceTime error occurred" alert after clicking Facetime icon in the Dock

Hope that helps,

    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??

  • Internal FaceTime error message occurs, cannot open app.

    I just purchased the FaceTime App for Mac, but am unable to open it. Each time I get an Internal FaceTime error and am prompted to quit and re-open...only to get the same msg. Firewall is not the problem. Have version 10.6.8. Any suggestions?

    This is Apple being stubborn.
    iTunes does not support Windows Fast Switching. Almost every application built for Windows DOES support this function, apart from iTunes.
    For anyone who says this is a Windows problem:
    Apple have managed to get iTuneshelper.exe to support fast switching for many years. Of course, that application keeps iTunes updated, checks to see if iTunes is the default player and keeps offering other Apple rubbish as a download.
    Being in Apple's interest, rather than the users, they fixed the problem for that application.
    Apple = evil/lazy and getting worse than Microsoft ever was.

  • FaceTime Error Message on MacBool Pro

    Are others having problems logging in to FaceTime for Macbook Pro? I am. Every time that I try to login via my MacBook Pro it says "the server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later". What does this mean and how do I fix it?

    Hi,
    Basically Network Stored PST files are not recommended by Microsoft.
    .pst files are not intended as an enterprise network solution. Although it is possible to specify a network directory or a Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path as a storage location for a .pst file, network usage is not meant to be a long-term, continuous-use
    method of storing messages in an enterprise environment.
    We can learn more from these articles:

  • I am trying to make and receive calls on my Macbook Air. I am getting an error message when setting up up my Mac to make calls on FaceTime.  Has anyone encountered this?

    I am trying to setup my Macbook Air to make & receive calls but I am getting an error message stating "FaceTime and iCloud must be signed in to the same Apple ID to use iPhone Cellular Calls" when selecting the box to turn on iPhone cellular calls on my Mac.  I have OS X Yosemite 10.10.2.  I am signed into iCloud, FaceTime, & Messages with the same Apple ID.  Is anyone encountering this?

    Hi,
    The Same Network is only needed for the Text Forwarding part of the Messages app on both and the iMessages account's Text Forwarding.
    I understand Blue Tooth is On but have your paired the two devices for Handoff and Continuity ?
    I cannot do this bit on my Mid 2011 iMac so I am a bit lost as to the actual settings.

  • Error message when logging into imessage and facetime

  • Error message on iPad using safari and iMessage/ FaceTime.

    I'm having trouble with my iPad (3). Just recently I keep getting the same error message when searching using safari, it says cannot open page as too many redirects occurred. I've tried closing all tabs, clearing the history and clearing cookies and data but nothing is working. I can still use google and use my Facebook and Twitter apps. Also since clearing data, I have been logged out of iMessage and FaceTime, when I try and log back in again it says that an error occurred during activation. What's wrong with my iPad?! I updated my iOS software a few weeks ago so I assumed that couldn't be the problem. Please help!

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • Error message when trying to use Facetime

    Hey all,
    Im helping a friend getting started with Facetime on her iMac. However, before she can call someone she gets the error message,
    "messaging agent wants to use the login keychain"
    Has anyone come across this? I tried doing some searches online but came up with nothing.
    Thanks!

    You can't do that.  Instead, just remove "aaa new-model" from the config then try to deploy it.  Alternatively, you can try "merge mode," but that will send the whole config back to the device.

  • Getting error message when trying to add apple id to facetime and imessage, getting error message when trying to add apple id to facetime and imessage

    When I try to add my Apple ID to Facetime or iMessage, I get an error message "username or password is incorrect " even though its the same username and password I use for everything else.
    anyone else getting this problem?

    The Order has got 5 lines. First 4 lines are product lines and the 5th line is a service.
    We have a customized form called mass order change which will bring only the product lines when we query a order. We usually do the mass update of shceduling date
    and promise date in that form for all the order lines or for some perticular lines in that order.
    For one order when i tried to update the scheduling date and promise date its showing this message. Not sure why??.. i have checked the form logic and the package which this form is using but all of them are calling the standard API process_order to change the sales order. I found out that This message is a standard Oracle message : OE_SCH_OVER_ATP_NO_SCH_ACT. I tried to find this message in process_order API but could'nt find this message. status of these 4 lines are : Awaiting Shipping
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Loaded the newest IOS and I get error message when trying to load I messaging and Facetime.

    I have an Ipad mini 2 and I downloaded the software update  IOS 8.1.3. Now when I try to use facetime and I-messaging it gives me an error message : (An error occurred during activation. Try again.)
    I have tried turning the applications on and off, I have turned off the I pad and restarted it. I made sure I was on the Wi-Fi. I even made sure the date and time zone were correct. None of these things have made any difference.
    Does anyone have a fix for this problem. Is there a way to reload the last IOS update? Any help would be appreciated.
    Peter

    Hey Peter Manring,
