When trying to activate FaceTime, get code " Could not sign in.Please check network connections and try again".Wi fi is strong and can access everything else.Any advice?
Hello
Try this... I had the same problem and this worked for me.
Go to your system preferences → network → make sure WI-FI selected → advanced → DNS tab. Add 8.8.8.8 to the DNS servers. Go back to FaceTime and try to verify your account again.
Good luck! -

Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings then restart your iPod.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears. -

Processor: Intel Core i7 2.9 Ghz
Memory: 8GB 1600Mhz DDR3
HDD: 1TB (5400rpm)
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000Not sure if you have tried adding 8.8.8.8 to the DNS servers yet or if your messages app is a problem as well. for me the only fix was as follows:
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/IdentityServices
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. Log out or restart the computer, empty the Trash, and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Basically drag the items in the identityservices folder to trash log out, log back in, empty trash, start messages or facetime!!
GOOD LUCK! -

I have used iMessage on both my iPad and iPhone for successfully, using the same Apple ID. However since I upgraded to IOS 7.0 .4 on my iPhone recently, it has turned off iMessage. When I try to turn it back on again and login with my Apple ID, The message "could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again" appears. I have tried again numerous times. I have tried switching off iMessage on my iPad as well then try and switch on them both back on my iPad works but my iPhone does not. Can anyone help
-Deactivate iMessage on your iPhone
- Reset phone by holding both Home and Sleep buttons for about 10 seconds until Apple logo appears.
- If you have wifi where you are, temporarily disable it.
- Activate iMessage.
Tell us what happens next. -
