How do I get my iMessage to work?

I cant get my iMessage to work on my iPod 5 it ether says its turned off or bad internet connection. 

Try a restart and if that doesn't work try a restore. If all else fails, maybe you do have a bad internet connection. Are there any connection problems in your home? Intermittent disconnections? Connection quality issues?

  • HT5622 How can I get my iMessage to work again on my iPad mini?

    The iMessage on my iPad Mini quit working, although it still works on my iPhone.  When I look at my settings in messages, my phone number isn't there and it will not allow me any way to enter my phone number.  How can I get my iMessage to work again?

  • How do I get my Imessages to work with another iphone again after it has stopped working?

    My iphone use to always send imessages with my boyfriend's iphone now it will only send SMS texts, how do I get it back to sending Imessages with iphone? 

    You should of course make sure that they're both running the latest version of iOS (at least iOS5 is required) - connect to your computer and update from iTunes, if not.

  • How can I get my iMessage to work after iOS7.0.3 update ?

    I had the iMessage bug for iOS7 update for over a month now & was happy to hear that the new update would fix this but to find out it still doesn't work !!! What can I do to fix this ? it doesn't allow me to send or receive photo msges. I've also waited a hour for it to activate since it says "waiting for activation"

    Hi there,
    I updated to 7.0.3 and the promised iMessage Fix seems not solving the problem. So i just tried the following steps (like before 7.0.3) disable iMessages, reset the network settings, start iMessages but still not working.
    Thats *****, sometimes i recieve the messages correctly, sometimes 15min later or as through by chance when opening iMessages.
    Is it sure that a complete reset will fix the problem?

  • How do I get my AppleID to work with iCloud?

    How do I get my AppleID to work with iCloud? It says that I have a valid ID, but that I can't use it with iCloud...
    How do I fix this?
    Thanks!!

    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • How do you get your imessage to activate

    How do you get your imessage to activate on your phone number and not your email

    Okay, you're on a popular network. (Some prepaid providers have issues)
    I'm on 3 Austria, iMessage is working fine here, so you may want to talk to 3 for any tips.
    Have you tested to see if FaceTime is working? If it is, try re-activating iMessage.
