I am getting an activation error message when trying to imessage

I have an Ipod touch 5th generation running IOS 8.1.2, recently it will not let me imessage or facetime. It is telling me that there is an activation error. Any suggestions? I have seen on apple support to "turn off" Imessage and turn it back on, but I don't even have that option. We have tried turning it off and back on, I have signed out of my apple id and signed back in. Still get the same message, error occurred during activation. Try again.

  • Getting "line disconnected" error message when trying to monitor

    Getting "line disconnected" error message when trying to monitor "live stream" on cameras from computer.  Anyone else have this issue?  Any suggestions on how to fix?  I have reconfigured each camera with the router but still having the error message.  I have a total of three cameras....(1) is wired and (2) are wifi......I am getting this message with all cameras (both wired/wifi).

    Is this an intermittent error that you get now and then, or were you able to successfully setup your cameras, then one day you got the "line disconnected" on all cameras since that point and on?
    If this is an intermittent problem, I can share that I experienced the same thing the first two days of having setup my cameras.  It seemed that my Gateway was communicating with the Verizon servers pretty heavily as I was getting my HMC first setup.  However, starting on day three and on, it has worked very well.
    The only odd thing I'm experiencing now is that I getting several "camera_detected" messages in the activity logs.  All my cameras show up in the My Devices list, and I can view them either as a snapshot or as live streaming, however, the log makes it seem that there is a mystery camera connected somewhere that I don't know about.  I have a call in to Verizon regarding this and hopefully will get an answer in the next couple of days.  It's not hurting anything, just kind of annoying to sort through those entries as you're going through your Activity Log.

    Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive.  "Could not complete backup to media share.  The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features."  What are AFP features and how do I get Time Machine to backup to my current external backup?

    This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

  • I get the following error message when trying to download ITunes on my computer running Windows XP - Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple Application Support\CFNetwork.dll

    I get the following error message when trying to download ITunes on my computer running Windows XP - Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple Application Support\CFNetwork.dll

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

    Try signing out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again and see if that works for you.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap your ID and sign out.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Sign in again -Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign in.
    If that doesn't work either, reset your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • TS3694 getting a 3014 error message when trying to recover my itouch. All PC software is currect, I have disconnected all USB ports and even turned off all security and still get a 3014 error. I got this after I upgraded to IOS 10.7.0.21

    I am getting a 3014 error message when trying to recover my iTouch after upgrading to 10.7.0.21. Everything worked fine until the upgrade.My PC is current with upgrades, I have unplugged all USB connections and I have disabled my firewall security.

    Did you try this:
    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.

  • Getting "layer break" error message when trying to Preview a single sided DVD, or build an ISO image or disk folder

    Hi!  Hoping someone might be able to help with an odd problem.  I haven't found anything in the forums or the web that match my symptoms.
    I've been using Encore CS6 (v6.0.1.013) on a MacBook retina over the past year to successfully create a number of single sided DVDs with menus, chapters, and all that.  I usually make a copy of a previous DVD project, and then replace video assets with the new files and transcodes, move and rename chapter markers, and rework the menus in Photoshop.  I then will build ISO images for both DVD and Blu-Ray (both single-sided), and use those to burn many copies of each DVD for clients.
    This week, while developing one of these projects, when trying to build a DVD ISO image that looked like it would fit on a 4.7 GB DVD, I received the "layer break" message ("The chosen layer break does not satisfy dual layer requirements.  To fix this, either set a new layer break manually, or choose to set layer break automatically.") because (I'm guessing) the material was too long for the 4.7 GB DVD (the Build screen now shows about 5GB of material are in the project).  This is the first time I've seen that message - usually Encore just tells me the material is too big for the DVD.
    I re-transcoded the material down to well under 4.7 GB (about 3.9 GB), reverted and replaced the transcoded files, and now the DVD build screen shows that there are about 700MB free on a 4.7 GB DVD.  But I still have not been able to build any version of the DVD (image, folder, disc), without getting the "layer break" message.  I also now get this same layer break message when trying to "Preview from Here" any menu, killing my ability to preview the DVD menus in Encore.
    Just to see what would happen, I chose an 8.4GB Dual Layer DVD, and chose "manual" instead of "automatic" for the layer break selection, but never got the layer break selection dialog box, just the "layer break" error message.
    I typically build both DVD and Blu-Ray images from the same material in the same project.  I use different transcoding settings for each, and I have been able to build a Blu-Ray ISO without this "layer break" error on the Blu-Ray build (which is about 24.5GB when built).  And as I mentioned before, this is the first project on which I've even seen this layer break message.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!  I'd rather not recreate the project from scratch, but I'm worried that I may have to.
    Thanks
    Jon

    The total project being small enough may mean you have one layer that is too big. Both layers have to be smaller than half the disk, right?
    Be sure you "run as administrator" for dual layer projects.
    Encore may set the layer break correctly if it finds a good place, but there are numerous complaints about it being unreliable.
    Build to a folder (no layer break is set), then use ImgBurn to build and ask to be prompted for layer break. ImgBurn is also unreliable under some circumstances.
    The most frequent problems appear to be when there is no good location for a break. Do a search for "layer break imgburn" and you will see a variety of strategies.
