How to activate facetime on iphone 5s
i cant use facetime, in the status waiting for activation is displayed
ACTIVATING FACETIME AND IMESSAGES
Activating Facetime and Imessages on your phone requires the ability to send SMS messages and depending upon where you are that might be an international SMS. Check with your carrier to see if your plan supports sending of international SMS messages. If you are having trouble activating Facetime or Imessages turn them both off on your device and reset the device (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost)). Wait for the device to restart and wait a minute and turn Facetime and imessage back on and wait for activation. If that does not fix things read the following articles:

How to activate FaceTime on iPhone & how to ship from USA ?
1st : If i have bought an iPhone 4 from UAE where the FaceTime is locked, can i get it back in Egypt legally (Through vodafone/Etisalat/Mobinil) especially after i have known that this feature is not activated in Egypt ?
2nd : how can i ship an Factory unlocked iPhone 4 "available on the website for 649$" to Egypt or the UAE ?
thnxxx1st: not sure of answer, but doubtful if Facetime is not activated in Egypt. Ask service provider to
get correct answer. As political climate in Egypt changes, the answer may change.
2cd: Apple will not ship from US to other country or to known re-shippers. Either get relative/friend
in US to purchase and then sent to you or order through proper channels in the country where you are. -
I bought an ipod touch 5 from Dubai carrefour. Th seller told me that the ipod that ı bought has a facetime . But when ı want to activate ipod ı couldnt see the facetime app. Please show me how ı could activate facetime.
If FaceTime is not hidden by Restrictions (Settings>General<Restrictions) you got duped. iPods officially sold in Dubai and some other countries that prohibit FT do not have FT and there is not way to get FT on those iPods.

Personal Hotspot
Use Personal Hotspot to share your iPhone Internet connection. Computers can share your
Internet connection using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or a USB cable. Other iOS devices can share the
connection using Wi-Fi. Personal Hotspot works only if iPhone is connected to the Internet over
the cellular data network.
Note: This feature may not be available with all carriers. Additional fees may apply. Contact your
carrier for more information.
Share an Internet connection. Go to Settings > Cellular and tap Set Up Personal Hotspot—if it
appears—to set up the service with your carrier. Chapter 3 Basics 34
After you turn on Personal Hotspot, other devices can connect in the following ways:
• Wi-Fi: On the device, choose your iPhone from the list of available Wi-Fi networks.
• USB: Connect your iPhone to your computer using the cable that came with it. In your
computer’s Network preferences, choose iPhone and configure the network settings.
• Bluetooth: On iPhone, go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth. To pair and connect
iPhone with your device, refer to the documentation that came with your computer.
Note: When a device is connected, a blue band appears at the top of the iPhone screen. The
Personal Hotspot icon appears in the status bar of iOS devices using Personal Hotspot.
Change the Wi-Fi password for iPhone. Go to Settings > Personal Hotspot > Wi-Fi Password,
then enter a password of at least 8 characters.
Monitor your cellular data network usage. Go to Settings > Cellular. See Cellular settings -

I got my new iPhone 5 Last Friday. However I can not activate facetime on the new iPhone 5. All other function work well.
I used my apple ID and always get the below message " Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again".
My network work well. I can access internet, apple store with no issue via wi-fi or AT&T 4G. No password issue as I can use the same apple ID register other access and apple store.
I noticed that many users are complaining the facetime after upgrading to iOS6. Not sure if this is the reason?
Any one here can help on this?
ThanksFacetime is accessed through Contacts or Messages. The only place you will find anything else in is Settings, where you would activate it. There is no stand alone app for Facetime like on the iPod or iPad.

How to activate factory unlocked iphone 3gs with os 4.0

Thanks in advance,

If the iPhone had the 4.0 Beta loaded on it, the iPhone needs to be registered with a developer for the iPhone to even function. If it's not registered and the beta is installed then it is a brick. Regardless of if it is registered or not, as Tamara said the iPhone 4.0 Beta has no support. The Beta is a beta and is for developers who are developing apps. That way they can release apps as soon as the OS 4.0 is released sometime this summer. You should get an error message saying something along the lines of this phone is not registered with a developer, if the iPhone is not registered.

If it is unlocked by the carrier then you just need to plug it into iTunes with a SIM card from a compatible carrier. If you get a message saying that the SIM is not from an authorized carrier, well then the iPhone is not unlocked, sorry.
If the iPhone is not unlocked you are really out of luck. While there are ways to hack an iPhone to unlock it, there are no methods for the 4.0 Beta to unlock the iPhone, and even if there is a way to hack it to unlock the iPhone 3GS on the 4.0 OS, it won't come for a long time. -
Why cannot activate Facetime on IPhone using email address as an option - similar to Ipod and Ipad2
Unable to activate Facetime on my IPhone 4 ( Unlocked and bought from Apple stores in France ),
It's keep saying " Waiting for activation..."
As a suggestion, a software upgrade that enable IPhone4 FT to be activated using an email address instead of the phone number.
Please advise if possible... one dayNot possible.
The iPhone is a ..... phone. FaceTime with an iPhone is activated with the iPhone's cell phone number only.
If Apple plans on changing this one day, no one here knows. -
How to activate Factory Unlocked iPhone 3GS
Hello Folks,
My friend got me an iPhone 3GS from Hong Kong (Model MC131ZP/A); and I am in India. This is the chain of events and the final problem.
1. When I first opened the iPhone I could see the home screen and use my SIM in India. Though there was no app for Camera or Compass etc on the home screen.
2. First time iPhone connected to iTunes and it told me that the OS must be updated. I went ahead.
3. I updated the OS to 3.1.2 (05.11.07).
4. After that it is not able to recognize the same SIM telling me that Invalid SIM.
5. I check the Serial Number of my phone on Apple Support site and it says that iPhone is not even activated.
6. I have tried contacting Apple support via mails etc. but no response at all.
I am not able to understand how it worked in the first place. Did the seller in HK unlock it using some kind of software? He should not if it is an Factory Unlocked phone. Are all the MC131ZP factory unlocked?
Can someone please help me on how to activate the phone or what is going wrong here?
