How do i activate push notifications

I've just updated to 7.03, I constantly get a message to activeate push notifications in iTunes. How do i do this?

I had the same problem and found the following solution  from LarryFilm in another thread.  The only change that I would make is to specifiy that in Step 1, to logout, you click on your Apple ID, then choose Sign Out.
So frustrating until I found the solution below!
Eureka!! I have found someone with a smart, simple  and efficient solution that actually works without all the hoopla (hard reboot/reset network settings/restore) suggested in this thread!
I have an iPhone 4 with iOS 7.0.3 and I went through those steps:
Go to "Settings">Scroll down to "iTunes Store & App Store">Logout from the account 
Turn off your device, wait 1 minute or 2 then turn your device back on 
Return to "Settings">Scroll down to "iTunes Store & App Store">Login (can take up to a minute) 
And voilà! iMessage and FaceTime are back in business!
Note: it works without any need for a restoration.
This fixes as well all the problems in Google/Facebook/WhatsApp/etc. that require you to "Connect to iTunes to activate push notifications".
Thanks a lot to our fellow Apple Forumer Hunter Guerrero (see his valuable post here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5318138?start=75&tstart=0).

  • How to setup gmail push notification for my iphone 5?

    I'm using gmail. Prompt respond for mails is very urgent for me.
    How to setup gmail push notification for my iphone 5?

    I switched from a BB to an iPhone a few days ago and I knew I was going to miss the QWERTY keyboard but then I also discovered that my GMail doesn't 'push' to my iPhone. I was used to 'push' for all mail accounts on the BB. I also missed being able to personalize text, email, and phone tones for individuals.
    I tried the Gmail app for iOS and it does deliver Gmail to the iPhone app quickly but the text is tiny and when it is a web page it's almost impossible to read.
    So, I have worked out a kludge to get around these problems.
    I added my exisiting Gmail account to the iPhone.
    Hotmail does push to iOS 7 so I created a Outlook account (could be hotmail or Live) using the web browser.
    I added the hotmail account to the iPhone. I basically use this to give fast notification of important emails on my iPhone.
    On my macbook email client I created a rule that 'redirects' incoming mail to the hotmail account. The 'Redirect' is important since the email will show up in the hotmail account on the iPhone as coming from the original sender and you can then respond to the original sender from the iPhone, though the sender will see it as coming from the hotmail account.
    The other downside is that you will get a second copy of the email in the gmail inbox on the iPhone, probably 15 minutes later.
    If you don't want all of the mail being redirected you can create a 'redirect' group in the Address book and then adjust the rule in Apple mail to only redirect the mail to the hotmail account if the sender is in the redirect group. You can add and delete contacts from this group depending upon which ones you consider to be important. You will still get two copies of the email on the iPhone, one in the hotmail inbox and one in the gmail inbox.
    You can prevent this from happening temporarily by turning off, but not deleting, the gmail account on the iPhone. You could then edit the emails on the Apple email client before turning the gmail back on in the iPhone.
    And finally if you use the VIP feature in email on the iPhone you can create a list of VIP contacts and then assign a different notification sound for the VIP's. So in effect important contacts mail will be redirect to the iPhone for quick notification and very, very important contacts will have a different notification sound.
    I'm basically using the Hotmail account as a notification  tool and basically delete all the emails in it since the original copy will be in the gmail account.
    And best of all it's all free, except for the bandwidth.

  • How do I get push notifications to work again on my iPhone?

    How do I get push notifications to work again on my iPhone? After updating my IPhone I get told to connect to Itunes (probably the worst program ever created) to get push notifications. In iTunes there is nothing to click to get it working, no menu, nothing! Anyone with the same problem? Anyone with a solution???

    How are you doing this?  Are you trying to use Home Sharing?
    Each iDevice can only be synced by one computer.  You can choose to erase it and sync with another one computer.

  • In the Apple Push Notification Service,How long does a push notification sit in queue before being removed?

      Official developer documentation isn't clear about this.
    Apple Push Notification Service includes a default Quality of Service (QoS) component that performs a store-and-forward function. If APNs attempts to deliver a notification but the device is offline, the QoS stores the notification. It retains only one notification per application on a device: the last notification received from a provider for that application. When the offline device later reconnects, the QoS forwards the stored notification to the device. The QoS retains a notification for a limited period before deleting it.

    This is an iPad user to user forum, so you are not addressing Apple. We have no way to know what and when Apple will do something.

  • How do I get push notifications to work correctly?

    Using Snow Leopard Server 10.6.8. I turned on the iChat and push notification servers, added myrealdomainname.com and mycanonicaldomainname.com and pubsub.mycanonicaldomainname.com to the iChat service host domains, and then turned on push notifications in the iCal service. But whenever I try making a change on the server using a third-party CalDAV client, iCal is running but is not notified of the change.
    The iChat server log says the service is logging in just fine:
    May 23 15:04:18 69 jabberd/c2s[62947]: [8] SASL authentication succeeded: mechanism=DIGEST-MD5; [email protected], TLS negotiated

    So, I set iCal's log level to "debug" and saw this error:

    That's not a very descriptive error, and according to XEP-0060 (the publish/subscribe draft for XMPP), it is also an illegal error, because it doesn't really elaborate on what "feature-not-implemented" means.
    Has anyone run into this problem before, and if so, then what do I do to fix it?

    Bump. Nobody's ever run into this problem before?

  • How can I enable push notifications once my multi-folio app is on the app store?

    Do I need to re-submit binary/app?

    Thanks Himanshu.
    Do I need to create new development/distribution certs with Apple Push Notification Service SSL (Sandbox) ticked?
    Or just enable the Push notifications in App ID's and then create certificates for Development SSL and Production SSL, then create the CSR.
    Do I then need to download the new mobileprovisioning files?
    Hope this makes sense.. Just want to make sure I get it right this time around

  • HT3576 How can I get rid of "Connect to itunes to use push notifications" pop-ups.  I just had to replace my iPhone 5 and when I did a restore from backup, most of my apps will not let me in becuase I cannot get past the"connect to itunes..." message.

    My iPhone 5 was distroyed so I replaced it with a new iPhone 5 yesterday.  I did a restore from a backup that i had performed a week ago.  When I tried to use the phone several of my apps would not let me in becuase they continually gave me a popup message "Connect to Itunes to use push notifications".  I click ok and the popup comes back.  I have shut my phone off several times.  I have complete closed the apps several times.  I have even deleted the apps from my phone and reinstalled.  All to no avail.  Please help - does anyone know how to fix this?

    Yes - I connected my phone to my computer / Itunes and went into the apps section, but from there I have no idea how to manage the push notifications.  I even tryied going into itunes that is installed on my phone.  I still cannot find anyplace to manage these popups.  I have also gone into settings - notifiations - and tried turning all notifications for these apps all off but that didnt work either.  Any guidance is MUCH appreciated - Im not sure where to go from here.
