Facetime wont sign in?, Facetime wont sign in?

I recently bought a new macbook air (at least a week from today) and facetime and messages refuse to sign in. Each time I try to sign in to either of the apps I get the error "Could not sign in check network connection". My wifi is working just fine and I know for a fact that i am entering my log-in information in correctly. I have tried creating a test user, correcting the time and date on my computer and router, turning facetime on, and ive even called apple multipule times and had to be connected to a senior advisor who couldnt even help me. Im getting very irritated because a new computer should not be acting this way, please help!

What device are you using? E.g iPod touch, Mac

  • I already used facetime before but for some reason I have to sign back in and it wont let me. I clicked "Get Started" then "Sign in"  but then after about 3 seconds on the next page it just slides back to the "sign in page"

    Try a Reset of your Device...
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • My iphone 5 wont let me sign into imessage and facetime!

    I recently bought a iphone 5 from my aunt. I went to AT&T to go activate and switch over phones. (I had a iphone 3gs). I later went home and tried to log into my imessage and facetime, but it wouldnt let me. I keep trying and it says "iMessage Actavation - Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try agian". I have wifi so my internet can not be the problem & and my internet on my phone works great. I can sign into my itunes and icloud witout any problems. I tried turning my phone off and on, restore the iphone and reset the settings. Ive also tried calling my company but said they couldnt help. And I called Apple and told me to the same time ive already tried doing. I dont know what to do anymore. And im hoping someone can help me out! Thank you!

    One thing to remeber , this issue occurs because of poor wifi  or internet connection. If this isn't fault in your case, try these because it happens in all products of apple like mac,ipad mini,ipod touch..
    Check you apple id and sign in again.
    Change you DNS to open DNS or Reset you network settings.
    Reboot you iphone once.

  • Facetime wont sign in

    I have just purchased the iphone 4S
    In the settings under facetime I put in my apple id info and the error I get is "Cannot sign in, please check your network settings and try again"
    Can anyone help with this?

    You don't need to enter an Apple ID to use Facetime.  Just open a contact you want to call and press the Facetime button on the bottom right of the contact and it will initaite a Facetime call to this person.  Of course, the person must have an iOS device that supports Facetime (iPhone 4/4S, etc.).

  • I have just downloaded FaceTime to my mac book pro, but it wont sign in?

    I have just downloaded face time to  my mac book pro 10.6.8 version, but it wont sign in?

    First:
    Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.

  • Ipad 3 on ios 6.0.1 wont activate imessage, icloud and facetime. And i wont get notifications FROM ANY APP WHATSOEVER!!

    I recently updated my ipad 3 to ios 6.0.1 and there are a **** lot of problems. My imessage and facetime wont activate - it keeps saying couldnt sign in check ur net connection. And safari sometimes says it couldnt open the sight because it couldnt connect to the server. My net is going perfectly fine but ios isnt. And then i wont get push notifications for any app, no matter wat i do. Ive restored it twice, but nothings working watsoever. If anyone has any idea how i can sign in to imsg, facetime and icloud or get my notifications to come plzzz do tell me i cant find a solution anywhere!!!!!!!!
    And apple u really need to fix these problems in the next update!!!!
    Thank u.

    hi there,
    i think i know whats wrong. one thing you could do is: try holding the home butoon and the power button together and shut down the ipad. you have to press both of them together!!! then to switch it back on, do the same thing again. it should start up. if it still doesnt work, you could try going to setttings, then "notifications" and turn on notifications for the apps you want. About safari, if it doesnt work from step 1, you could go to wifi or cellular and just reconnect your ipad to the internet.

  • Unable to sign in to iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, or App Store

    Ok, this is STUPID frustrating. I'm NOT a novice user with Mac's, but I'm stumped to figure this bug out...  
    13" MacBook Pro 5,5
    2.53 GHz Core 2 Duo
    8GB Ram
    120GB SSD - OS & Applications
    750GB 7200rpm HDD inplace of optical drive.  - User files/profile set on this HDD.
    Fresh Mountain Lion/10.8.1 (clean) install from USB (formatted HDD first).
    Problem:
    1. Can not sign in to ANYTHING that uses my Apple ID (except iTunes. iTunes seems to be working, I think). Specifics listed below:
    Error Messages:
    iCloud (System Preferences):
    You can't sign in at this time. 
    Try signing in again.
    iCloud - Calendar.app (Preferemces>Accounts>Account Type: iCloud):
    Sticks on "Searching "iClound.com" for calendar servers" for quite a while then shows the message:
    "Calendar found a CalDAV server but couldn't log in with the user name "[email protected]". Make sure the user name and password you entered are correct, then try again."
    FaceTime:
    Sign in with my Apple ID username and password. Another box pops up reasking for my password, then I get the screen telling me my FaceTime address, where people can call me (my Apple ID). I click "Next", it says "Verifying" then "Verified" then boots me right back to the innitial sign in screen with the error message "Incorrect Apple ID or Password"....     FRUSTRATING!!!
    Messages.app (Preferemces>Accounts):
    Enter Apple ID & password, a box pops up asking me to reenter my password, so I do. Then I get the error message:
    "Could not sign in to iMessage"
    "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again."
    App Store (Store>Sign In):
    Enter my Apple ID and password. It sits and thinks for a bit, then the box disapears like it accepted my input, but then does nothing. Doesn't show me my store account, and when I reclick on the "Store" Context Menu, I see the "Sign In" option like I never gave it my username and password to begin with.
    I've tried to create new Apple ID's (through the menu choices), both using an external email address, and creating a new .me email address. No good there either:
    Click create a new ID> Location = United States, Birthday= my birthday (im 32 so no limit there).
    Doesn't matter if I choose to use an existing email or wish to create free apple email.  I get the "Terms of Service" screen, click the "I agree box" and then I again get the "You can't sign in at this time. Try Signing in again." error message...
    I've searched and searched all over Google, even tried some of the fixes the Hacintosh folks are using to correct similar issues, but in-so-far nothing has worked. I'm at an impass here. 
    I installed Mountain Lion over my Lion install, and everything worked. I reformatted my HDD and installed a raw, fresh copy of Mountain Lion, and  *poof*  no workie, workie all brokie, brokie.
    Before someone states the completely obvious, yes I know my Apple ID and pass are correct. I signed in to Apple.com, iTunes, and iCloud with it just fine. Using my computer's built-in service fuctions, or individual apps that I can point to my Apple ID, it wont let me in. I can't do crapall. Can someone here please lend a hand? Hopefully I'm not the only person having this issue?!?!?!

    Called Apple and was surprised that the problem was actually solved in one call! Here is the fundamental problem (and I think it is mostly Apple's fault):
    The Apple ID used by iCloud (and iMessages, Facetime, etc.) is DIFFERENT from the Apple ID used by iTunes etc. In my case, I had set up an Apple ID awhile ago with the format xxxxxxx, and then when iCloud started, Apple automatically set up an iCloud account with the format [email protected] because iCloud needs an email address. These two are different accounts in Apple's system. When I reset my password for xxxxxxx, it did not change my password for [email protected]
    In case my problem is not your problem, here was my situation. All my services were working on my iPhone and iPad, until I went to iCloud.com and couldn't remember my password. I used the iForgot service, and entered my Apple ID (xxxxxxx), and then reset my password. This is where the trouble began.
    I could log into appleid.apple.com, and "Manage my Apple ID" using the xxxxxxx name and the new password I had set. For the life of me though, I could not sign into iCloud, Facetime, Find My Friends, iMessages, etc. iTunes worked fine. I think this is similar to the OP. I tried signing in as xxxxxxx and using [email protected] and [email protected], all using the new password I had reset, and none of them worked. I knew the credentials were correct though, since I could "Manage my Apple ID".
    Here's the solution:
    Go to iForgot, and instead of typing in your Apple ID as xxxxxxx, type in [email protected] (or whatever your iCloud email address is). Answer the security questions, and then reset your password. In my case, I reset it to the same password I had reset to with xxxxxxx. Then everything worked for me.
