IMessage not working on ipad after updating to7.1
Since this past Wednesday (after updating to ios 7.1) neither of my kid's ipad 2s can use imessage to text either mine or my wife's iphones.
What can I do to fix this?
We can even connect to the imessage network with the ipads.
Keeps saying "check connection & try again"You need to be connected to the internet.

Ibooks not working on iphone4 after ios5 upgrade
Hi folks,
the ibook application is not working anymore after upgrading to ios5.
It all appears to be ok but no book can be open. The books appears correctly, others may be downloaded but still none of them can be open.
It looks like lacking a kind of authentication.
I removed it , restarted the phone, installed it again and it still does not work.
Am I alone with this problem or someone else also got it?
Marco AurélioHi.. I have problem wth hotspot too. But i still use it via wifi. I cant use cable as medium anymore. My experience, hotspot connection vis wifi sometime need to resert the connection several time before stable. Just try this: unplug the phone from usb connection. let your wifi turn off. Then set the personel hotspot on via usb only. After that back to the wifi setting. Turn it on. Again back to the personel hotspot setting. Turn it off, on it back (wifi connection automaticly selected when usb cable unplug). Now you can search your phone from ur wifi service on pc. Hope it works..

IMessage not working on iMac after iOS8 install on iPhone
I installed iOS8 on my iPhone and my iPad but it seems to have caused iMessage to stop working on my iMac. It tells me that I cannot use my Apple ID for iMessage at this time !? Strange!
I updated the OS on the iMac to the most recent update but the iMessage still does not work. It is giving me an error message to contact Apple support with a code number shown. I did that but since its sunday today nobody was available who would know how to fix it, which is VERY annoying.
If anybody knows what to do could you please let me know.
Thank You.
StanoThere is no official public documentation of that alert as far as I know, but apparently it can sometimes mean that the same Apple ID is being used with the iTunes Store or one of the other Apple content stores, and the payment method is invalid. Sign in to the store and review your account. You do not, of course, have to provide any billing information to set up an account to use only with iMessage, as it's a no-charge service.
Another possibility is that the primary or alternate email address is invalid. Search the Web for the phrase "My Apple ID." The top hit should be an Apple web page with that title. I'm not giving a direct link because such links are never to be trusted. Sign in and verify the ID.
Otherwise, do as the alert directs. According to reports, you won't be charged for the support call if you select "Apple ID"—not the hardware model—as the product you're asking about, and cite the "customer code" in the alert as the "validation code" when you speak to the Apple representative. I can't confirm. -
IMessage not working on iPad after iOS 7 u/g
I know this is on all the forums - somewhere, but my iPad has been stuffed as far as iMessage is concerned since iOS 7 was installed. It receives OK, but when you try to send, the send ribbon gets to around the 80% mark and it stops. Nothing I do has made any difference. Reset all the cloud setting, verified my connection, but nothing.
Ok, so it's a known bug affecting a common function of Apple devices, right? Why the **** wasn't it checked before the release? And what the heck is taking so long? iOS 7 has been out a month now!

IMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade! Feedback pls
iMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade, anybody experiencing this as well? Feedback please......
You shouldn't have to hard restart and it shouldn't have anything to do with your router. If anyone else runs into this problem try resetting the network settings on your phone. All the steps to do this can be found here http://tekshot5.com/ios-5-1-imessage-fix/
Edit: Some of us don't have the option of resetting our DNS servers. I run my own for example for caching purposes. -

IMessage not working even after 'fix'
My iMessage on my iPhone 4 is not working. Phone is updated to most recent update. Sends iMessages to some people but not others and the people who I cannot send to also can't send to me, regardless of being on wifi or mobile network. I have tried the turn off imessage, reset network settings etc but still no improvement. Would be very helpful if anyone could give me some advice?
Macrumors posted a solution for this. I used it and it seems to have worked for me.
Here's what they said:
1. Turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages
2. Reset networking settings in Settings > General > Reset
3. Reenable iMessage in Settings > Messages

IMessage not working on new Macbook Pro.
iMessage not working on new Macbook Pro. Issue began after I downloaded latest version of Mountain Lion. After every message it says delivered then immediately a red circle with exclamation point says message not delivered. Any ideas?
I can also no longer text on my computer or iPad. Fine on iPhone. Same as you - I can see everything up until a specific day. But I didn't do any kind of update where it should have stopped. And it stopped working on my computer and iPad at the same time.
