How do I get my iMessage working? It stopped after iOS 7

I need help getting my iMessage working again. It stopped after I got iOS 7. It keeps saying connection fail try again. I know it's not my network connection.

Same for many - I phoned Apple. The guy said eveyone was effectively cueing to get activated and patience is the only answer. Maybe I was fobbed off, but I seem to remember the same thing with ios6 when it appeared.

  • How can I get ThinkVantage button working again? (after a full HD rebuild)

    WindowsXP Pro, ThinkPad T60   (2007-F4G / UT0F4UK)
    Hi
    How do I get my Thinkvantage button working again?
    Background:
    I had a virus attack and as a precaution I zero-ed my ENTIRE hard disk (using KillDisk). I have managed to re-install most things, including I now have an icon on the taskbar called "Launch Lenovo ThinkVantage Toolbox". However I would prefer it to be fired up by my pressing the (blue) ThinkVantage button at the top of my keyboard.
    I have refused point blank to pay the (outrageous) price of GBP 40.00 for Lenovo to send me a CD with Windows etc on it, but have managed (eventually) to rebuild the entire disk driver by driver until the ThinkVantage Toolbox thing (version 6.0.5449.31) could take over and bring my drivers up to date when I Update my system.
    (It's just that they may have gone in incorrectly??)
    Is there something I should have done during installation.
    Ship

    Hi Ship,
    1. Install these for thinkvantage button:-

  • How do I get my contact list to display after IOS 5 update?

    since updating to IOS 5, my contact app opens, and I can see names, but I cannot see any of the information that used to be there!! Addresses, emails, phone numbers???!!!! All gone.
    How do I get them back?

    If you just bought it, you could return it.
    Or you could get a microUSB cable and restore the device from iTunes on your computer.

  • The wifi at my school isn't very good. And I can't send iMessages through it. It works for some apps like score center and my radar app, but doesn't work for other apps like clash of clans and iMessage. How can I get it to work on that  wifi network

    In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
    So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
    If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

    I did buy it from someone in Jordan. So they might have got it from KSA, or UAE, or it even might be the same rules in Jordan. I don't think the imessage works even, every time someone sends me a message from their ipad it says "Not delivered". Maybe I am wrong?

    So I changed my appleID and primary email and now I can not access iCloud with iOS7. ICloud shows my old appleID but I can't change it. How do I get iCloud to work with my updated ID?

    Hi ccharat,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you did a good job editing your Apple ID and primary email address, but you didn’t sign out of iCloud on your iOS device before hand. What you may need to do in this situation is go back to the Apple ID website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the email address that is signed in with iCloud (there is no need to verify the account after editing it back to the old account, just changing it back is enough). Once your Apple ID is back to the original account, delete the iCloud account from the iOS device and be sure to keep all info on the device when prompted. After you delete the iCloud account, go back to the website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the new address. Once it is back to the account you would like, you can sign into the iCloud on the iOS device with that new account and merge all of the data when prompted. Please use the following article as a reference.
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    I hope this helps,  
    -Joe

  • 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.

    Me and my friend were having an emoji war and he sent me two messages and now my iMessage won't open. I tried restting the network settings and everything like that but it won't work, How do I get it to work?

    - Reset all settings

    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • I have been trying to send messages from my Non Apple friends/family from my I Pad.  How do I get this to work??

    I have been trying to send my Non Apple friends/family messages from my I Pad.  How do I get this to work??

    It won't. iMessage isn't an SMS service. It's for Apple-to-Apple and uses cellular data. SMS uses a cellular SMS plan, which does not come with your iPad. You'd have to have a cell phone to send texts like that. Alternatively, you can find an instant messaging app like Skype (they do messaging, not just video chat) or MSN Messenger that goes across platforms. You install it, they install it, you can chat with them.

  • I have 2 ipod touch's that both have frozen screens and will not reset or show up in itunes. They both froze after trying to update to the latest software version. How do I get them to work?

    I have 2 touch's that froze when trying to update to the latest ios version. Neither respond to restarting the devices. They are also not recognized in windows or itunes. How do I get these to work. I followed all of the instructions on  the apple website and they still don't work. I have verified that I have apple support for mobile devices installed in itunes and my version of itunes is 11.0.1. I am running windows 7 64bit with service pack 1 installed and all of my updates are current. Is anybody else having this problem with their apple devices?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
