HT5395 AFter installing IOS 7 Imessage does not recognize my Apple ID password.

Itunes and Icloud still recognizes my Apple Id password.  Whenever I try utilizing Imessaging on my IMAC it shows that the account is inactive and offline.  When I send a text message to another Iphone etc. from my phone and ipad mini it will only send it as a message (green bubble)  and not an imessage (blue). On my Imac, I am asked to sign in with my Apple ID password.  When I do I get an error message that says "server encountered an error processing registration, try again later."  This has been going on for a week now.

Hi,
Did the repair of the Hard Drive involve the Mother/logic board at all ?
At OS X 10.8.2 Apple introduce a security measure that involves using the Mac's Serial Number.
It is held on the main board and can be read by the Apple icon Menu > About this Mac
Click twice on the current OS X level. It will change to the Build Number  (another way of counting the OS) and then to the Serial Number.
If the Number is missing you will have to visit an Apple Store or an Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) to have it put back.

  • Facetime on my ipad does not recognise my apple id password after i have upgraded to iOS 6.1

    After upgrading my ipad to iOS 6.1, Facetime does not recognise my Apple ID password. The password works fine on the app store, I have even tried changing the password, but Facetime refuses to recognise the password, and therefore unable to activate. Has anyone else faced such an issue?

    The Connect to iTunes screen appears when something went wrong on your iPad or the update requires connecting your device to your computer running iTunes. Start iTunes on your computer and connect your iPad. Usually you will be guided through the process of getting your iPad running again. If not come back here for assistance.

  • My IPhone 5 does not recognize my Apple ID and password

    I recently changed my Apple password and now my IPhone 5 IOS 7.1.2 does not recognize my Apple ID and password.  Same for FaceBook.  I restored the device to factory setting and the problem persists.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!

    I had a sense the IPhone did not like all the symbols I put in my passwords.  So I got rid of the symbols in both the Apple and FB passwords.  And now both work perfectly!  I can get into ICloud, ITunes Store, FB without any problem.  Thanks Lawrence!

  • Apple TV does not recognize my Apple account username (email) and password, but ITunes, my iPad and iPhone does.  I have rest my password three times, same results. Also, ATV says my computer is not authorized, but I-Tunes says it is.

    Apple TV does not recognize my Apple account username (email) and password, but iTunes, my iPad and iPhone does.  I have rest my password three times, same results.
    ATV says my computer is not authorized, but i-Tunes says it is.
    I have i-Tunes open on my computer and have entered i-Tunes store, ATV says it can't access the store.  Both on the same network!
    I am so frustrated with this system!  All these problems with Apple TV are not the end but the beginning.
    In i-Tunes, songs are lost when they have not been moved. I lose whole albums I have ripped from CDs to iTunes
    An audiobook book in two files are in the library but only one file is recognized by iTunes when I try to play it or transfer it to my iPhone

    I Am having the same issue. Ie on the password issue.
    I Am using a Macpro though.
    i Have had no issues with the setup until recently.
    However I think the hard drive is starting to fail as it keeps on losing the wireless connection and gas been stuttering a lot on playback.

  • I get "mail server does not recognize your Apple ID and password" when I try to share a picture via email in iPhoto.  My iCloud email works ok otherwise.  I have check all mail settings for ID and password.

    I get "mail server does not recognize your Apple ID and password" when I try to share a picture via email in iPhoto.  My iCloud email works ok otherwise.  I have checked all mail settings for ID and password.

    In the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete the account and re-enter it - sometimes that resolves this
    Or IMHO the best long term solution is to set Apple Mail as the iPhoto e-mail client in the iPhoto preferences and use it - it has a number of advatages and has fewer problems

  • My iPad does not recognize my Apple ID. I have reset several times (as requested) it's stated that its successful, and then does not work..I cannot access anything!!!!

    My iPad does not recognize my Apple ID. I have completed a reset several times (as requested).
    The re-set is shown as successful but then doesn't work..I'm locked out of everything!!!

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • After install snow leopard, ical does not show the events of some calendars

    After I install snow leopard, ical does not show all the events, or simple does not show the events of some calendars that I created.
    Can somebody solve this problem? Is there some update for ical?

    Try the following:
    1 - Go to your user account home folder, and open the library folder within it.
    Look for the folder named "Calendars" and inside you might find a bunch of different folders with weird names. If they are there that means your calendars might not be lost.
    2 - Look for the file "Calendar Cache". That file might be corrupted. Trash it. You may want to save a copy of it elsewhere. Once trashed, re-open ical. This should force it to rebuild its library based on those folders with weird names you saw. Your calendars should be back. Good luck

  • Can't send pictures from computer,telling me does not recognize me username or password

    when i choose a pic and i press the send button, it tells me that it does not recognize my password/username.how can i fix this?

    Open iPhoto on your Mac.  Choose iPhoto > Preferences from iPhoto's menu.  Click "General".  Presumably you have "Email photos using" set to "iPhoto".
    Next click "Accounts" under iPhoto's preferences.  Make sure your email address, password, and other account information is set up correctly.  If in doubt, set it up as it is in the Mail app.

  • Website does not recognize my email or password when signing in via firefox

    When I try to sign onto a specific website, it does not recognize my email address or password. This only happens when I sign in through Firefox. How do I correct this?

    Some sites use JavaScript to copy the name and password to another (hidden) field or use separate hint input fields for the name and password that can make Firefox store the wrong data (the password field and the input field with the Password hint text). In such a case there probably is nothing that you can do as Firefox may overwrite the name and password stored by the password editor extension immediately on the next visit.
